Today

I'm sad today,
I wish for lots of letters, notes and diversions,
reasons to write,
attention...
It strikes today quite hard.
I miss EVERYONE.
My baby girls,
baby boys,
You know the kids and,
Nonni's wee ones,
friends and family.
I'm feeling kind of sick inside,
low fever,
just enough to make me hurt and,
rather sentimental.
The things of life,
from day to day,
they go along,
they must.
I'm dragging through
the things I must
wishing for less of that,
and, more of each of you.
I'm sorry for my weakness,
sorry for what is no more.
Sad that I no longer have
the chance at attempts
to make wrongs right.
Today so gloomy inside and out.
My spirit wants to sore,
to find the smiles,
the joy,
the hope,
I know and need to cling to.
The me I know,
the one thats strong,
and happy,
sure and hopeful
in spite of what life hands,
absent today,
needy instead.
I am so very sorry.
Maybe tomorrow.
