I gave a hug
was it enough
enough to reach
that spot of impending
destiny that punctures
what is
and will be no more
can a hug
really help
a breaking heart
a heart that
holds
so much love
 now
much pain
is a hug enough
  held just long enough
 that words do not come
not even in release

  3. Yes it can.
    Weird. For some reason I was thinking of you the other night, wanting to check your blogs and reach out. Got distracted and didn't make the connection. Today I am in more need of a hug than ever. Decided last night to have my 17 year old, best friend dog euthanized this Friday. I come here today when I take a break at work, cloudy, cried out, headachey, and find this. I know it wasn't really for me. But I took it in anyway. Hope that's okay.
    And thank you.

  7. As much as we treasure words, sometimes the clearest, best, most heartfelt message comes without them. Hugs indeed.
