How are you today?

I am not feeling very well today. I have a cold and I didn't go into work today, which is so not like me. I am trying to figure out how I am feeling inside. I have been very happy lately and today I am having a down day, I guess. For what it is worth, I am hoping this is temporary. I received a letter in the mail today from poetry.com, saying that a poem that I posted on the website was selected as a semi-finalist entry into some contest. Also they want to publish it in this book of poetry. I wrote this poem last summer when I was having a very hard time in life. For those of you who like poetry, here it is for your viewing pleasure. Please let me know what you think about it!!!!!

Because I am getting older
I notice that I am
Overwhelmed with feelings of
Loneliness and pressure. If
Only I were able, I
Guess I could delay the
Inevitable wishes that I
Could marry the one who
About three years ago
Lavished me with the blessing that

Came from my womb. The one I
Love but who has the
Opinion that we shouldn't and
Couldn't tie the knot right now.
Knowing this, should I unplug it?
