My dear Robert,
I heard your heart breaking so very far away;
I heard dark betrayals sucked your bright love away!
And though i ache and grieve across the distances with you,
i hope you know that, eventually, this will pass too...


To love someone completely is always a risk we take;
To trust them unconditionally is the leap we make;
But no one learns who will make no mistake,
And a wounded heart can mend as sure as it can break...


Take the time to weep, to rue and to rage;
Fill and black it in but remember to turn the page;
For this is but one leaf in your book of many more,
Surrender your loss and surge to the brighter shore!

For there is that horizon above which the sun will rise;
Anticipate it with healing heart and faithful eyes;
You who are loved so lavishly and well by so many,
Regroup, regain and return to Life's awful assymetry!

Though it's still winter in my country New Zealand down under...
I see the sun up in the sky radiating post-shower!
I eagerly look forward to the coming spring and then summer -
For I hear you will be in Ozzie to film "The Rover"!

Yes, I am selfish and I am all about me,
I cannot wait, and nor can you, You'll see!!
