i was drowning in sorrow searching for redemption gems my lungs aching for breath i wanted to give up, give in to the darkness below it was then that i saw you, a deep blue light i had longed for this moment my forbidden sapphire, would you rescue me? i sank to the bottom of the cold, dark, deep digging to free you from the murky waters how i wanted to keep you, but i knew i could not i was unable to grasp you and keep you as my own so i left you buried there for another to find and i kicked back to the surface, gasping for air |

...sometimes all we can do is leave another to his/her own happiness. You capture the struggle well in what it takes to let go and live. |

You didn't need the sapphire, afterall! You made it all the way up to the surface on your own!   EA |
