hide and seek by milo

[billy]

i realise it isn't about hide and seek, but it's poignant enough to reach back into childhood and allow the reader time to time travel to a special place. the feeling of loss and being lost taps into that universal sadness we all feel at one time or another when we're alone thinking about someone who's special to us. the poem begs the reader (me) to pause just that little bit longer because of the enjambment you have going on. good choice and a great example of image and metaphor.
