My husband's doctor gave him two years to live SEVEN years ago, then proceeded to prescribe the wrong medication and damn near killed him in two months time. The anger gushed from my heart in letters to God, to the doctor, and to my husband. Then in a moment of clarity, I realized that every day had to be a celebration of life. This is why every day is a holiday at my house. But before this revelation . . .
"EMPTY"
My empty reflection is all but a stain
Smears of black empty blood
My battered heart a hollow block
Of dead empty wood
My soon empty hands
Smash a now empty frame
A constant reminder
Of my now empty name
Absent, displaced gratitude
Wrenching, forced solitude
Be careful what you wish for
Echoes my aching, empty attitude
An empty bed in a half empty house
Even more vacuous than it seems
Purposely clouded memories relived
In night's bitter, empty dreams
