I am made to wonder
why
when someone has dreams
and hopes
of a better life on this earth
Hopes of a life with love beyond compare
Hopes of their dreams becoming realities
Hopes of being forever with that one whom they love with all their heart

Why do THEY try to discourage
calling them hopeless and
romantics with a life that is empty

Why can't they  see that she is coping with problems that she hasn't told them about.....and if not for the unusual circumstances, her dreams would certainly already be realities

Why can't  they  see how blessed she is to have that someone in her life who loves her as much as she loves him....completely and totally
regardless

Why can't  they just be happy for them and let them be

Just WHY.........

I feel like you looked into my very sould when you wrote this...the intensity and frustration is heard loud and clear...just remember...They don't really matter in the end.

Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind...

I think for many reasons...out of their own fears...think about it..I don't believe people are trying to be mean...it's just that they are afraid, and maybe they've never known a spiritual love?  They say, people who love you will support you and allow your happieness, even your mistakes...well, I hope we can do that for our children...

A very awesome write.  Thank you
