Back pain is no joke. I relate to the physical pain and the choice to groan and moan when you can not speak because of the intensity of the pain that must be endured.
I feel your compassion and your love for your wife. I see the imagery clearly, I relate to the daily journey, and the knowing that each day must be handled the best she can. thank God she has you for support,care, and assistance. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from rod007
A very perceptive poem as you above anyone else would be able to read between the lines, and see--yes see and feel the poor lady's pain. I hope she gets better and that you'll no longer have to read between the words. Well done, Tom.

Comment from Green Lake Girl
I'm so sorry your wife has to life with such pain, Tom. You are a kind husband to share her struggles. For what it's worth, I have a friend who got relief from acupuncture.

Thank you. Yup, we've tried that to no avail.
Comment from Shirley E Kennedy
A very expressive series of quatrains in 8-6 meter.
The emotional toll on both of you is read between your chosen words as well.
As a sufferer of neuralgia and fibromyalgia I offer support and sympathy to your wife.
Living with constant pain is very painful, debilitating and frustrating.
Your intuition and support I'm sure are a blessing to your wife.
:-) Shirley

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
I feel so sorry for your wife, back pain is the worst type of pain, it stops you doing just about anything, and takes the pleasure out of the things you like to do. I also feel for you, Tom, watching the pain in Karen's face knowing you can't take it away is just as painful. Your love for her goes a long way in helping her cope, I know that for a fact. Your poem shows your feelings plainly. xsx Sandra.

Comment from Dr. Nad
"Between the Words" is an excellent Poem that alternates rhyming schemes but delivers a consistent message. Pain is plainly something that encroaches on the lives of not only the victim but the people the victim is close to. Shrapnel is not limited to soldiers in war but the overflow of pain cuts deep into the souls of our dearest loved ones. This is a poem of two soul mates who want to limit each others pain. Well written. God Bless You Both.

Good writing.. lot's of honesty, lots of emotion shows through in your words. More then the poem I just want to applaud you for sticking by her side, for being there for her and for understanding. That is the greatest gift you can give someone.. you must be a wonderful person!

It takes a certain intimacy to be able to read someone so well. My wife is also a sufferer from chronic back pain, but I am not so assured in picking up the signs of her bad days. Often I spot them a bit too late.
