his green eyes
so dazzling
these emeralds
so dear
this unconditional love
so distant
like he didn’t see me
so dilated
it only means one thing
it’s so definitive
and i’m so in denial
the vet says
their eyes
never close right
when they
die

"But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
"In flames and torment?""Oh, yes, I do."
"That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said."Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
"Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.
so haunted, Haunted. Wish it was a doctor not a vet. You have a way with words. Ethereal just sprung to mind. Trashy never does.
Jerry.

Jerry, you're forever so kind. Ethereal is such a beautiful word, thanks. Still, it will wind up in Trashy eventually...and I hope you will again grace it with a kind comment.
Delta, thank you so much!!!

Would that be trashy poems the most mis-named of all threads ?
hmmm.....Jerry's now critical of my naming abilities![]()

thanks Prince, I appreciated your comment!
Mary, it's only uplifting in that it brings me closer to him again in the poem. Your mwahs are always heartfelt!
