It's no less
of what it was

as we stand in opposite corners
in our new lives
today

it just means
a little less to me

and a little more
in respect of how

mis placed trust
aged me years wiser

face aginst the wall

to think about

what's done

how could you

have done that

to us

Gemma~

I know exactly what you mean...

I was 5yrs old when I was taught that lesson..

"That which does not kill us makes us stronger"  

Some days that is just so hard to remember...

love you!

misplaced trust.. always ages us, but to misplace it is better than to lose it... without it, you can not truly love again...

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Gemma, it is so sad to see trust being imitated ever too uch, sweet friend, yet somehow it is important to understand the versimilitude of a trust so then we can understand how to love again and have a good idea to what is real trust! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, I send angel hugs your way, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Gemma, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
