Feelings hanging out all over,
there for everyone and anyone to see,
- - - one heart all over both sleeves.
Last night - First night together,
then two sleepless nights apart,
- - - boggled mind so anxious,
I had to write it, because...
I never could have spoken that!
So much for the ' been there -
- done that, crap ' - - -
Reaching for a tiny hand,
a clumsey klutz, who is almost ill,
... then she held my paw...
very happy... SO VERY... very happy!
... but cool!
I am pretty sure that I will sleep again ...
but, I can't say just when ...
Topsey - Turvey me,
- - - I am not who I used to be,
although the mirror looks the same!
It is so good to know,
that I am not the only one that won't let go,
and maybe, not the only 'basket case ',
these last few days!
