Must be the time of year but I sit here and think < !signature-->watching ICQ as it starts to open up and blink 2 names stay quiet and silent no light on there do I delete those I no longer think care Light reflects off my rings last time I made a date seemed the right thing to do, no love yet no hate the empty lights are different on my list though forecast of a future one we'll never now know How do we make the change get ready for the event when you still feel every word you said and meant do I make a date and turn this heart from in to out will that switch off the questions and lingering doubt Love where two people can be and share so much reading each other's minds sharing a joyous touch Blackpool has an Illuminations Night is that what I do but if the lights go out all is lost between me and you... Yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream... [This message has been edited by RainbowGirl (edited 12-17-1999).] |

Wish there was a light on my heart to let me know when it's ok to use it again... unfortunately, I think the light is permanently burned out! I like this one, very sad...  |

Very well written......I like this Rainbow Girl. But know that the light in the heart never burns out....sometimes the electricity is bypassed to another part of our life....Chidren.....animals, other family ect... But it still is able to shine bright.....the hard part is hooking it back up after the plug has been pulled. Bless you.....and safe journey where ever you may go.  Share what you are for you are what you share |

Deletion is a final step. To the world you might be just one person but to one person you might just be the world. |

Severn: Well, I guess it is kind of but sometimes reality grabs you and you have to face it...it takes two to conquer the world..  )HUGS Nan: Yep and when my lights twinkle the price is sky high..*g* HUSG PdV: I wrote it as it came out, if that makes sense, very often it doesn't sink in what I say, I'm to used to thinking what I think is wrong so in 24 hours I could well think differently...do we have tippex here?.. HUSG First__Knight: you're a deep one, aren't you...heck, I feel like you can see in my mind...pkease don't, the trip is not worth the effort..and yes, the heart does always burn with fire but sometimes without coals.. HUGS Bal: deletion sure is, but then if something is worth having, it's worth fighting for and I don't know what he thinks (2 names being the same person)...I'll survive though.. Husg< !signature--> Yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream... [This message has been edited by RainbowGirl (edited 12-17-1999).] |

RainbowGirl I'm so glad I finally get to see what you look like. You beautiful thing you! ICQ and deleting been there, I really hesitate to do it myself..If they aren't in touch though, with a special soul such as yourself maybe you should delete them? Just remember you are special, a light to us all. They don't know what they are missing out on!! ((HUGS)) What the inner voice says will NOT disappoint the hoping soul. ~Isis~ (Daughter of Mystery) |

Nice poem....definitelyshowing your deepest feelings. If it bothers you dreadfully that they're no longer there, DELETE! If you can endure, without being upset about it, wait and see. Only you know what this is doing to you, but maybe they just felt unworthy of you..huh? |

Oh boy:....I know a few will know what I mean when I say this but one certainly will...PMT...I'm laughing so much, how could I be so stupid as to not recognise what I warn people about...10000000000000% super sensitivity at moments like these...heck, I could see a watering can empty and cry and feel sorry for it or a cat dish that's empty and mourn the loss of a tin of catfood from the supermarket shelf to the sales assistant having to restock the tin that I took to feed my cat's empty bowl....hmmmm...women!!! Aren't we just great???..Loveable???? Adorable??? and totally sensitive?..*I nod* in agreement with myself...LOL Yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream... |

Sorry Guys: I was so busy laughing at myself I forgot to read the replies...ROFL...oops, maybe I shouldn't have said that but hey, comeone, have you never felt out of sorts with yourself and wondered why the heck you felt like a tin of sardines without tomato sauce???...ok, maybe the analogy isn't that impressive but believe me, at my age, my emotions are worse than a see-saw with children one end and adults the other so to know why, makes me laugh cause I am sensitive but I am REALLY sensitive at these moments and I'm chuckling to know that some stranger didn't come and invade my mind.. I'm taking myself away from you all now, you'll just have to do without my peculiar sense of dry humour... Night, sweet dreams and ROFL at self diagnosis...but I agree, in principle, I'm a nut!...LOL< !signature--> Yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream...

Very well written ... I'd say "yes", delete those who do not care ... but be sure they don't before you do it LOL @ PMT ... Did you have brandy on top of that ? *g* HUGS Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment, Chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie. |

I’d delete him, the coof deserves it!!! (don’t slip and delete me by accident though)  Yes, I admit your general rule. That every poet is a fool: But I myself may serve to show it. That every fool is not a poet. |

As long as the light still shines in your heart, then there is always hope my friend. Granted, sometimes that hope hurts more than helps, but what is there to life but hope? |

Thank you all for the responses but really I was just thinking aloud, as we sometimes all do. I apologise for any controversy this may have caused, I guess it comes down to interpretation, and he's a special guy, heck, he must be, I wrote a poem about it..

RG, you crack me up, ya know that?  Love the poem, and your "replies" too! It's tough when you miss someone. It's not the love you fear, but the fall from the height~Edwin McCain |
