oh, there are eyes
which will n'er see my face
her lips may repeat my name
but her hands will n'er touch mine
to the one I love
she will n'er know me
except for my words, my words

oh, she has a bosom
for to lay my weary head
my lips as is hers
chaste
and will be
until I finally die
and see what's on the other side

You are a man of many questions my friend. That is a good thing, it keeps your mind alive and lively. I believe that the other side holds all the answers so that give us understanding and acceptance and therefore it also gives us peace.

Never mind the other side, Jerry. It's never too late. Trust me. Passion for that which we think can never be.....but it can!

I hear you talking Red, sometimes the odds are just way too high to overcome. Thanks for stopping by.
