"Comfort food for the soul." I'm quite down, fellow prosers. Times like these, only poetry soothes me. Please write a lovely poem about comfort or comforting somebody. Make it at least 50 words. Tag me because I want (need) to read.

Lamentation of a Silly Dejected Girl

The memories are fading. It's been too long. Too long since I was in your embrace and soothed by the sound of voice.

So I'll write, to hold onto what I can.

Oh how you made me feel like a child... cherished and protected. And you also made me feel sexy and desired. I loved showering with you and letting you wash me and shampoo my hair. I loved the forehead kisses.

It's been a year now. I still mourn us. It just might take til my last breath to be free and at peace without you. So it seems.
