So Sad Are You
by Joe Cramerso sad are you
from what you know
in your heart to be true
not knowing what to do
or where you should go
as thoughts become few
those old wounds run deep
late at night they creep
into your slumber, your sleep
until finally, all you do is weep 02/11/2013 Author's Note: ... my parents were never happy, they tried, but just couldn't get it right.....

| Posted by George Hoerner on 08/09/13 at 01:32 AM Really interesting and very well done Joe. I've tried more than once to write about my mother and have a hard time. Mine were divorced when I was 6 or 7 and I only saw my mother 5 or 6 times before she died in her mid 80's. The last two times she didn't know who I was. This was very well done. |

I think people underestimate the impact that has on a child growing up. Well done, Joe, and thanks for sharing |
