This work has reached the exceptional level

A very heartfelt poem on your past and what you hold inside, sadness, sorrow and perhaps guilt, but remember this, it would be terrific if the reaction from people and there actions that they have the control over to follow through or not, is not your fault. How were you to know the outcome when you said goodbye? You need to write about accepting that your wife had a sadness beyond her being able to cope with, over losing your son, as well as you do still. You were doing what you thought was the right thing for yourself and her before you both killed each other. (not physically) hoping for a better outcome for both. Hold your head up high for you are a survivor and your heart will ease off when you do some acceptance for what happened was not your fault.

    All my heart went into this one and it's hard to deal with losses sometimes but journaling or diarying it whatever you want to call writing it helps tremendously in my situation!

    No doubt it's been a life line for you through writing. I just thought I'd try and encourage you to branch out on your writing, to expand and refresh yourself, break the train of sorrow through your writing. I'm sorry if I may have offended you in any way. keep writing it helps all that write.

    Even though I'm good at grieving poetry and love poems my specialties children's books that's why I'm publishing right now three fairy tale books with a company called Xilibris.
    Also my main book where I got this old thing started my gift of Life books being handled by author House.
    my dream and five years is to have a thousand books marketed some turned into movies the fairy tales and little TV show when an estimated worth of three to five billion which I'll give away probably 98% and start foundations in my son's name such as abuse for women houses for them to live in food pantries put a wing on a hospital in his name.
    God is giving me a gift that's why it's taking me so long to publish because I felt I was stealing from his wallet if I did start publishing.
    but my religious works been too well recognized and I've been told it has to be out there and marketed so that'll be my next next venture with Faith publishing

    You certainly have a generous heart but Ricky, if you make lots of cashews in the next 2 years, you can start sharing while you are alive, and I'll donate myself to be the first to receive a donation, just let me know and I'll give you my address. lol wouldn't that be something. Any later than that I can't guarantee I'll be here to enjoy any of it.In all seriousness, you have quite the paper trail going on, congratulations. So you profile is misleading when you say you are just learning to write. I shall keep my mouth shut from now on. You are busy, busy, good on you.

You have been through a great deal od loss and sorrow. How brave you are to donate your son's organs as well as to tell us your story. I am so sorry for your terrible losses.
