...one of the kindest statements in life, is to acknowledge that a person IS...who they are; a WHOLE being. Miss Gwen, you have undercut the flesh, and brought forth the spirit of the man, in a brilliant fashion! Thank you for this write. blessings ~ rhonda
Wow! I can sure relate to the sentiments expressed here, Gwen. Your words make me feel better somehow. Thank you for sharing this gift. Love and peace to you,
Sounds familiar to me, perhaps too close to home. Still doesn't detract from this superb piece Gwen, every word has a power of it's own. Sheer excellence!
Gwen this is an astonishing portrait of the reclusive poet who is what he is and expects all to accept him that way,and frankly doesn't "give a damn my dear" if you don't! A very difficult hard shell to pierce! Superb poem!

Has such a lonely, Eleanor Rigby feel to it...
and I've known such emotional-recluses like this.
I truly enjoyed this "psychological study," Gwen.
this is wonderful, this is second poem today that touches the part of me that loves poetry about the agonies of love and life...and i've just started reading.
"his heart aches for an eternal love's embrace
embedded within, dwells the spark of salvation's ray
someday it could shine forth in awesome brilliance"
Maybe someday Gwen.
This is a very sad, but all too true piece. Everyone that has had their heart broken over lost love, whether the love is espousal, platonic, parental, sibling, or from someone else, knows the truth in the words you have written Gwen.
Masterfully written Gwen, like an artist's portrait on a canvas. This is very first rate work, Gwen, and even tho it brought back very horrific memories, I did enjoy reading this.
May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie
"If I have to be this girl in me, Then I have the right to be."

A deep and intense write that sears the page and heart..
The poet aspires to paint his life's canvas in the most honest and direct way...
You accomplish it superbly...

I have enjoyed the reading of "he is ... who he is". A fine poetic composition in contents and art.
I salute You, Poet!
Long healthy creative life.
