Headstall's Poetry Prompts - 26. Chapter 26 Prompt 15- Rejoice and Already

Will he ever settle down?
Doesn't sound all good, Gary. I know you guys are good together but will the day come when he'll be around longer?
I dont know your relationship, its just what i get from your poetry.

Aww Gary... Even if the title says Rejoice, I feel the sadness, or maybe longing is a better word. To hold on to that time just a little longer. It's almost as if you're talking yourself into being okay, accepting the way things are. Then before you know it, in Already your time is up. I know you know it's okay to hate the way it is sometimes. It sucks eggs.
These poems did great showing how you feel and getting it out.

for your longing

Thanks, Def... I do accept. I was wallowing in self pity a bit, but I'm good. These were from the heart, though, so thanks for reviewing, and understanding... cheers... Gary...

Love is wonderful but it is capable of causing a mighty big ache too.

Brilliant expression of inner feelings, but they bring out a need in me to give you a hug so here it is.

As always, well done Gary

Thanks for the hug, Reader... and for reading my poems and reviewing... cheers... Gary...

Thanks, Bucket... much appreciated... cheers... Gary...

How hard it is to let go again, and again. To be surrounded and then bereft. You have written it clearly and movingly. Thanks for this installment.

Thanks, Parker. It was a deviation in the plan, and I felt shortchanged for a while, but I truly wasn't... it was a gift... and it isn't always about us. That said, it is tough... that feeling of loneliness that follows... cheers, my friend... thanks for the review, and for getting it... cheers... Gary...

So much longing and love in these two poems... but also sadness. I know it doesn't linger, but the sadness does have it's place. Wonderfully written, Gary.
