Tonight's Poet Corner: Sonnet Solstice #317
I'll Remember by Belinda Roddie I'll remember to breathe, to drink, to eat, reminding myself that it's not my fault, though sometimes my heart skips at least one beat, as I attempt to swallow down the guilt. I'll remember to laugh and smile and think about the positives throughout the day, though moments can still make bobbling boats sink like cannon balls ripping the hull. I may not always remember all of these things, and I'll need some reminders every once in a while. The elation each day brings is always burdened by stress through the months. So I'll remember to remember this: Sometimes, I just need my dear wifey's kiss.
