Darling’s poem she wrote for Sir not long after leaving Australia.
.
Deep inside my heart is a place that I thought was lost
I hid it, because it was more than I wanted to bear
I didn’t understand the price I paid, nor did I count the cost
I thought I was alone; no one to share
I didn’t realize the vital, missing piece
Was a part of me that couldn’t be duplicated or replaced
Neglecting myself was leaving me damaged and incomplete
A small but significant void – an an empty space
A hand reached out and helped me off the ground
I stood once again and wondered how you knew
Uncovered – that hidden place was found
You gave me back myself –Â from somewhere inside of you

Such a lovely poem full of passionate intensity. You have such a way with words, Darling.
Thank you kindly, Cupi. It’s easy when one has something that influences perfect inspiration.

Sweet…very sweet of you darling.
Thank you Grace. Very ‘sweet’ of you to say. 😉

You are more sweeter Darling and you are welcome. 🙂
“you gave me back myself, from inside of you”! How eloquent. Just what I would have liked to write, thought I could not have come up with the right combination of words ever..
Ms.Darling, you are awesome!
Hi BP
Darling would be too modest to tell you but this poem has actually been published in several literary journals. She is and has a rare talent.
Regards
Sir
Oh my God! That is simply awesome.
