The Game

©  Susan Christensen
Let me tell you about a game I play
Where I close my eyes and fade away

I float away to a special place
Beyond the stars and moon and space

In this special place you see
There are only two people – just you and me

In this place, all is right
Nothing but love, and we never fight

In this place, there is no sadness
No cells, no courts, none of that madness

No rules to follow, no laws to break
No bars to hold us or separate

No one to tell us we can’t kiss or touch
I don’t have to just say “I love you” – I can show you how much

But eventually the game must end
My eyes must open, and reality sets in

But someday soon – I’m not sure when
I will close my eyes and play my game again

I am sorry to you. My brother is in prison and I cannot imagine his pain and his girlfriend's pain. It must be so great. The man I love my husband of 10 years was in jail for 17 days in the beginning of our relationship for something that was not his fault and it was terrible. SO unfair especially when in the end it was not his fault and they knew. They don't say sorry...they just say go home. Ugh.

my partner has been in prison for 2 1/2 years and is finding it very hard emotionally to be away from me and our 2 children and this poem has given me some ideas how to express the way I feel and show him that by no means is he forgotten thank you
