    Tales Untold

    This ache is like a lost child whining for love,
    and wanting freedom from the stifling pain--
    at the same time.
    When I sleep, my fist, bending involuntarily at the wrist
    crushes my chest as if I could reach in and disintegrate
    all the broken parts.

    Meanwhile, ferry tales untold remain on the dock
    waiting on the non-arrival of a white night.

    What a panorama of analogy and metaphors in so few words describing the angst felt by many of us.

    Poetry is what is lost in translation.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
