I can feel myself slipping
back into that lonely   abyss
and I catch myself wishing
not to be subjected to this
again

as we keep on going
around and around
never finding the middle
or solid ground
somehow forgetting about
how it all began;

before the tears, the sorrow
and pain;
You’re continually
tripping over
your deceit and bane.

I must admit,
that I miss that guy

but I...

I have no tears
left to cry
over the we
that we were
back then...

I swear that I'm damned....

And…
I miss my friend.



seek the flame within yourself
and let your soul be cleansed by
the fire of love.  Axel Ekenstierna

sometimes the best healing
come from the distance
between the wound
and the sun

had to come back...yanno Linda, I heard it said, once you reach 50, you go to bed fine and wake up with injuries...   and the sad part is, it's true...

Hugs to you my friend...wishing you a bright and sunny day today, and thank you, girl for venting, I was beginning to think you were a Samurai or something mystical, supernatural...and ya know what...you are!!!

Donna

It is because of love that you miss your friend...and it may feel like you are damned at the moment, but instead, I believe that you are blessed.  One day you will see it that way too!

Straight and honest, cleanly written, and....sigh....that other thing about what it says....makes me want to go off by myself for a little while....
