I rest my head today The effort of anger Leaves me spent Would it hurt you To know it’s been much easier Than I thought it would be? I still swoon to think Of how easy it is to go From love to resentment I seep contempt for your actions Yet I could let go If you would stop being the victim A warm blanket And good book Bring me more comfort Than I ever received From the you that served Yourself so well My time and effort Seems so misplaced I long for flat line emotion Or a slightly skewed parallel universe "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |

I have often wondered to myself if it is possible for anyone else to understand what I feel at times. This write tells me that yes....there is. This is so damn poignant gal... me? I just try to remember that what don't kill ya makes ya stronger.   heart hugs girlie. |

Thin line between love and hate. This is a spitting hurt of last words. No one can get under ones skin any deeper than those once embedded in the heart. |

Can feel the ache - Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

I liked what Dark said. I liked the straight up expressions you have placed here. It is never easy to look upon the hard. Hugs, TD |

Well all I gotta say is " You go girl". I especially like the lines ************ A warm blanket And good book Bring me more comfort ************ Something actually "nice" to cuddle with and something that actually "has" something to say that means something. Bravo!!!!! |
