While He Cries

Don't believe the words they say.
My friends all say I will be OK
even though my sweetheart has gone away.
I'm not necessarily saying what they say is a lie.
It just seems like a foolish thing to say
to a man while he cries.

James, it stinks doesn't it? I wonder why the ones we love always go away? You write a true moment here, there is no comforting at certain times. We just have to pull out all the stops and grab that one little piece of strength left, and keep going.
Take care.
Love

no, it's NEVER foolish to cry, no matter whether you are a man or woman.  In fact, when a man cries I believe it's a sign of strength.

Very true words, James...we will be ok, but it is the LAST thing we want to hear...great write...

it was love that first drew me,
it is love that will keep me here...
now I see love burning brightly
when everything else is unclear...

I know this feeling all too well, James -- wrote about it in "WHEN YOU'RE AWAY" in the archives of #14 somewhere...  Time is probably the best anti-biotic in these situations, but it doesn't make it any easier in the meanwhile, to be sure..  Take care.

Yes Mark time does ease the pain and yet feelings of worthlessness and disappointment linger for a long time...James

I understand James, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't feel the regret of a love I lost years ago....sometimes the heart gets stuck even though life continues on.

The pain that you suffer will turn to repair, the people who love you will always be there, life is a testing of will and of trust, life sets it boundaries, abid them we must.

Be strong and sight a future bright.
