Are you feeling cheated?
Wracked by hope’s despair
Knowing in a moment
I may be no longer there

In truth it is a blessing
As much as it as curse
Knowing or not knowing
Which do you think is worse?

Would you rather wonder?
About the things unsaid
And thoughts of lack of closure
Racing through your head

Perhaps this way is better
To have time to prepare
And say a thousand times I love you
So you know how much I care

About the Poem – A Thousand Times

The poem A Thousand Times is about the number of times you would tell someone that you love them if you only had a limited amount of time.

Inspirational 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.
