Wanted
One shoulder to cry on
Two Arms to hold
Two hands to pick up the pieces
Two eyes to see my pain
Ten Fingers to dry the tears
One soul true to the end

I am sorry about this one. This time of year is always very difficult for me. I tend to feel my isolation deeper then ever. This was written here with no editing or real effort at poetic correctness. It is from my soul.

The rawness is appealing. I can understand the effect this season has on you. It will pass, in time.

 Now and forever, my heart hears ~one voice~.

Marilyn -
I'm sorry that you feel isolation.
Please know that I care and send
you love and a *hug*.
Cry your tears ...
but, please ... know I care.

Marilyn - may I say I can identify in a way - I'm in this big large city with no family. More supportive hugs come out of my hug pack for you...

*Hugs* K.

(Oh, and like Dream - I loved the rawness of this.)

We all share the same needs and sometimes we forget the things we have that are good by our focus being on that what we want.  My want for you is that you find peace, love, happiness and know that there are many who find what you search for in you.  May you always be that what fills thier hearts. I can see by the response here that you do affect others and your effect is held close by them. I don't know if you are a woman of faith but I say to you if you ask for the strength of the Lord....so shall it be given. Grace and light be with you Marilyn

 Share what you are for you are what you share

My heart also goes out to you.....
I think First Knight has replied beautifully and with great wisdom. There is great power and solace to be found in those words.
Be strong.

Marilyn, you are so not alone. I know we are words on a screen without a face but we are friends and family nonetheless. Nothing to be sorry about in writing from your soul, that's the best expression there is. This time of year is difficult for many, has been for myself for quite some time. Please, smile, and know myself and your friends here are definitely in each others hearts, no matter what time of year it is.

Marilyn, I do understand my friend. This time of year is a very hard one for me also. I think First Knight said it better than I can at this time. We have to keep that hope in our hearts. You are well loved my friend, never forget that.
Hugs

Thank you all for your words of support. I knew that I would recieve what I needed from my friends. I have much to be thankful for. Sometimes we just need to be reminded, it is stress and exhaustion that fuels my blues.

First Knight...I am a woman of faith. I have found much strength in  his arms. There are times seeing or feeling that is more difficult then others. Thanyou for your words.

My sister, straight from my heart to yours. Know I understand, I love you, I care and I'm so sorry you feel so alone.  It's of little physical consequence but I send oceans of love and understanding across the sea to you.  (((HUGS)))


 The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there IS to celebrate.
