At first, we see what’s missing
The memories we planned
Porches meant for rocking
And beaches we could stand
What will you do different
Now the script has changed
Your life isn’t broken
It’s simply rearranged
You only need to see it
The space won’t fill itself
There’s others there to help you
You don’t need to do it by yourself
Fill the hole with the good stuff
I bet you have things in mind
I know you have some ideas
They’re never hard to find
About the Poem A Hole in my Heart
The poem A Hole in my Heart is about losing someone in your life. They have been a part of your life so long that a part of you seems missing. That’s probably true. Many people feel like it’s wrong to try and replace them and go about their days feeling empty. It’s more a matter of that love having no where to go. Maybe there is a new relationship in your future. Maybe it’s just with yourself. Maybe you are supposed to put all that love into something else so someone else can enjoy it. If you can fill that hole with good stuff, you will make your world a better place. This poem goes out to Dolly Parton who recently lost her husband of more then 50 years.
Poetry Books
Here are some of the books that are available from Robert Longley. I would recommend the Sacred Poem journals. Reading my earlier books (especially the ones for Military, Police and Firefighter’s families) cover to cover can be overwhelming. The poetry journals are designed to give you one poem per day while you journal about what might be going on in your life. There are specific journals for grief, success, and more.

Inspirational Poetry Products
While I do signed poetry prints that are 11×14, that isn’t the size or product that all people want. Some just want a sympathy card, others may want a large canvas print, or maybe a coffee cup. There are limits to what I can customize with the options available so some products just don’t work. Please just ignore them, I know that that format doesn’t work. If you are looking for something specific, or would like to make something specific just let me know. I’m open to just about anything.
