Resuscitation

_____________



I've never met a person who was dead till I met you

You see, you speak, you walk, you have all the basic functionality and faculties of a living person



However you lack the most critical ability

You cannot feel.



Well, that statement may be partial truth...

You do feel somethings sometimes,

but overall you block the feelings



It weighs on my heart that I cannot share my joy for living with you

I give and give and give, but there is no reception...no one home



Occasionally I'll see a light come from within, but it quickly fades

That light is  my hope that you'll once again live

Excellent words, I know the feeling well.

 May your roof never fall in and those beneath it never fall out.

Deja vou!  I too know the feeling well... *smiles*  Thankyou for putting it into words what I could not name...

 MAY THE ROAD RISE TO MEET YOU,
MAY THE WIND BE ALWAYS AT YOUR BACK
MAY THE SUN SHINE UPON YOUR FACE
THE RAINS FALL SOFT UPON YOUR FIELDS
AND, UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN,
MAY GOD HOLD YOU IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND

Irish Blessing

Good poem! It is a shame that some people go through their lives not really living. Keep sharing, perhaps one day the light will not fade!

It's sad to realize that there are some people out there that lack the capacity to feel...but perhaps it's because they were never held as a child..never taken by the hand and shown how beautiful every little thing is in life..... I know it's a Pollyanna view of life, but that's they way I feel.  Give them time....
