Still

[Tom Balch]

Still

Still sets two places, but he
Sits all alone in silence
Sifting through a microwave dinner,
Single portion… not eating, just picking
Sifting through the papers, not reading, just
Sits staring, he really misses her…
Still hating the cancer that took her.

A reminder that Cancer doesn't just end the life of the victim it takes away any quality of life for those closest to them...thank you Tom

Tom,
Having to write about the loss of one's life, the one you loved, is most difficult. Sometimes it seems as if it always will be. I can feel the hurt.

[Cindy]

One can really feel the loss in your words. A very moving poem.

[Seema Chowdhury]

A heartfelt write, I hear you.

A poignant piece Tom. A reminder that cancer has no favourites and no friends.
