I Once Loved (A Poem)

I ONCE LOVED by Sue Nolan Things I once loved, I love no more Peacefulness, I seek in every day To keep grounded and be authentically me Nights out dancing with friends and loud music Traded for quiet evenings and early to bed Sleep-ins, once a must, not anymore Early …

A Solitary Tear

A Solitary Tear  by Sue Nolan   One tear, two, Maybe three. Gliding gently, Silently. Not a howl, Not a sob, Not even a weep. Just a tear or two or three, Gliding gently, Silently. Heart so broken, Is there even a beat? Emotional daggers, Stabbing every cell. A tear …
