I wrote this at a time when I was feeling very low, when my boyfriend had died. I felt so much, so strongly, I believed I was going insane, asking myself, what’s the point to all theses feelings. I’m sure some people might feel the same, when they feel too much.
I guess I’ve always been that way, feeling things with too much intensity, whether it’s joy, sorrow or pain. It’s never the middle of the road, so to speak, but rather a rollercoaster of emotions.
Anyway after hearing Hank Beukema’s voice recently, I thought, it’s the perfect voice. I asked him if he might read my poem for me and was rejoiced when he agreed. His voice truly makes every words come to life. It’s warmth so incredible.
