I loved the darkness
But the light loved me more

Gorgeous. Thanks so much for joining in. I understand what you mean about forgetting. What a surreal time it's been. It's so beautiful to read peoples thoughts in poetry about these times. Did you lose your Mum to COVID? Regardless, what a traumatic time to lose her, and what a painful year it must have been for you. I loved the catharsis that seems to be released in this gorgeous poem. Thanks so much for sharing this intimate story in poetry.

I didn't realise poetry wasn't welcomed in the Ink Well either.. 😭😭

Yep. I didn't know. Such a shame.

Nope, I didn't lose her to covid. She died just before the lockdown. I guess being indoors everyday just made it harder.

Thank you for the words. I do appreciate them.
