No problem. My expressing myself in poems is one of the few things that came from my major break a few months ago. I'm 48, and honestly , the first piece of prose that I every wrote that was remotely readable was less than a year ago. I now find I can often express my feelings better that way than any other. My wife and I are separated, but after 24 years of marriage, she still cannot understand what I am going through. It was her I wrote it for. I shared it so that if it will help somebody else understand what this is like, a little piece of what we have to deal with, they could see it. It is not great, but I virtually never go back and revise or refine them. I am writing what I feel, not something to be prettied up later on. If you want to edit to put your own feelings into it, feel free to do so.
