Dorothea

A Poem by Desert Knave
"

a sonnet

"
Because they
No longer hear you
They can't believe
That I do
They can't conceive
That it's true
Because they 
Stopped seeking your voice
They think I should too
But, that's something
I won't do
Unless, some day
You tell me to ...
That, I owe you

This poem speaks strongly to me but I don’t know if it’s the same way it speaks to you?

Someone you lost?

Thank you. Yes, it is a little homage to someone long gone that I still speak to. ~Jim
