i'd simply ask a trucker to get there
i'd simply walk the whole way
i'd simply chance being killed
i'd simply camp out for days
i'd simply fight off crap
i'd forget my fear of cars
i'd forget the scars
i'd forget how far
i'd forget just so far in a car
i'd not remember much
i'd not remember stuff
i'd not remember not enough
i'd forget my train
i'd forget loving it again
i'd forget taking a train
i'd not be on the next one
i'd enjoy every second in the air
i'd love flying for a second to spare
i'd be ready to be scared
i'd already known he'd cared
i'd insist on what he wanted
i'd come to him without a tear
i'd go again year after year
but when we find speculation useless again
when we don't freeze reality
it hits home
sometimes quietly

It does, doesn't it? Really nice write, Carolinadreams.

After years of searching, I have found I am nothing more, nothing less...I am in truth Just A Woman after all.

It does hit home doesn't it hon, loud or soft it still hits...
The use of *** is a no no, so I changed it slightly I know you won't mind, it doesn't change the meaning of the line at all..
Keep in touch eh?
