A heart's lament

How Do I ...

by Brenda Henderson



How Do I …

How do I say I love you when I can’t?

When you say it pains you to hear me speak it; and it pains me to hold it in?

How can I show you how much I care when every minute apart feels like an eternity and rips at my heart?

How do I contain the ache in my soul and the longing in my arms?

As the tears drift down my cheeks and my sorrow increases ….

How do I handle the pain in my heart and the miles and the distance that keep us apart?

How do I explain what I feel; where do I begin; how do I start?

How Do I ...

Maybe you can tell me?
