The poet lays bare her soul with these words:Honestly, I don't know how to start talking about my poem, as it's a little overwhelming. My estranged father passed away last year. He decided he didn't want to be in my life before I was born and I never had the chance to meet him in person. When he passed, the realization that I lost every chance I'd ever get to meet him laid heavy on my heart. It was the moment that I knew I'd never get the closure I needed or deserved. Through haiku, and specifically this poem, I've begun to heal, even if the hole in my heart never fully closes. I'm sorry if the above statement is…
We can understand the feelings very well, Rowan. You've expressed them well in your poem and in your analysis of what and how a person's death could do to anyone. Thanks, Sanjuktaa. _()_
