But to allow someone to see, to know the truth, is such a wonderful gift even if that person is not fully aware of what they have been given.  They will be one day.

Oh, that's gorgeous.  So few words, so much emotion conveyed.  You're a master of pain.

As if all partings aren't hard enough... the pain of this plea tears right through a heart for there is no hope... all the good is gone. Superb wring from a tender heart! *S*
