Its usually me who makes you reach for the dictionary Tink but you had me with "fugaciously." What a great word.
A beautifulpoem here, full of sadness and yearning. The music set it off perfectly too.

You most certainly and effectively convey your emotions via your verses, TinkaSweets. It it is any consolation, many will relate; sadly but truly. Love, peace, and strength to you,

A very emotional poem indeed, makes me want to say...just don't give up..in my experience when all seems to be going wrong, and I just can't see the light...I keep pressing on, usually because it is the nature of me, and very soon, very soon, I begin to see a dim, thin, ray of light trickling through...and before I realize what has happened there it is in full beauty God Ray of Sunshine smiling down on me...and you know he was there the entire time, I only allowed thoughts of doubt cloud my view...keep looking up you will find your ray of sunshine. {Hugs} from a friend.
Blessings,

When the actions happen that create such sadness and melancholy it is often hard to see far enough ahead where there again will be light and smiles and brightnes. Your pain and your families is real and will always be a part of you because of your loss, now will someday be tomorrow and you will find your smile again.

One cannot, in my opinion, decide if the emotions portrayed in any poem are personal to the writer or not. Personally I rarely write about myself. But with you Tinka, I have a sinking feeling that you truly bare your soul to us and so I grieve for you. No one should suffer so much. Be strong. There is a silver lining. Victor

Tinks ...

My chest is heaving sissy, and my eyes are tearing again. The last four lines are breathtaking, and your use of the word "fugaciously" was inspired. Stand strong!

One day at a time sissy ...

Yur bud ...
