The Pain of Missing You

One more photo composite.

FEATURED in Gods and Goddesses ~ many thanks to the group hosts!

Beautiful female model, with thanks!
Handsome guy~with thanks!

This photo was inspired by the brilliant poetic work of Linaji who gave me permission to post her poem, Skip This Moment. Profound thanks and abundant hugs to Linaji!!

Skip This Moment
I want to skip this moment,
It is painful
Pain
Feeling a squeeze in the eyes
tightening of the forehead
Solar plexus feels the beginnings of
The pinpointed black hole
Insatiable and resistant
Sucking sounds like moans from a moth
Mind goes foggy this time as
I don’t want to know
why
Cause I know
Why
I want to skip this moment
It is painful,
No torture legislation needed nor
CIA sponges soaking me drowning me
Perhaps that is preferable
Just that feeling I won’t have what
I want
Feeling the first drops roll down my
Cheek
The left one.
The words start to form in the brain
‘I miss him’

Linaji 2009

    I sure didn’t need to see that title Jerri, but this beautiful work…

  • Jerri Johnson replied

    Ouch! Actually, I thought of you, Mark, when I was working on the photo…all for the good, but the title really came from the poem. The whole separation thing is the most painful thing…and you’ve heard this 100 times…we’ve all been through it…but it doesn’t make our pain go away any sooner. It’s like a slow death…but better…if that makes any sense. Hugs!!

    it is a very mild Summer so far! almost Springlike still. most of the surfers were still wearing fullsuits on 4th of July and lamenting the drop in water temp as well. I think it may result in an extra warm August & September! very good to see you again too Jerri and am so enjoying your work :)))
