14 years of being half of a couple destroyed terminated decimated Indescriminating illness, not caring who or what it tears apart. The fear The loneliness the darkness Then in the distance a glimmer a spark of hope lighting up the shadows Could it be? You taught my heart to love again, penetrated my barriers Let me become the man I was always supposed to be. You saved my life Although you would never see it like that You taught my heart to love again.

Thanks for your comment on my last poem Paul - I'm touched that you found it thought provoking. And I'm also sorry that you are relocating to Torquay! You'll have to come back and visit us in Wigan whenever you can - and next time, I'd love to hear you perform some of your poems too!
Take care and I hope the move goes well. xx
