Untitled, undone Like a moth to a flame I’m drawn to your soul Even with all the memories, Loving you took its toll No longer the woman I once was, Although I wish I were My friends keep asking me What I did with her? Locked away in the dark Safe from all the hurt Grimy from the mud she flung, Tear streaks in the dirt Held captive in a prison She cries out from her hell Drowning in the copper water In the wishing well Taking back every penny She ever wished upon Praying for strength to let go Instead of holding on I chronicle her mission And pen the lines in verse Knowing that she won’t undo The bindings of this curse Her love for him too strong, too great A battle that won’t be won Lost between love and hate Sick of darkness, but fears the sun The poem sits, untitled And I lay here, undone [This message has been edited by Tara Simms (edited 10-24-2000).] |

Tara, you have spoken from my heart. Wow, this is so intensely sad, and lonely. I know just how you feel, I am undone too. Take care. I think in reality, we will stop loving them to some extent. And it will stop hurting. It has to. Sandra |

Temporarily undone, she wears the title of courage beside her name of honor and respect, and with it she undoes the "undone" Very moving poem Liz |

Thank you all for your kind words. They mean so much to me. I don't know what I'd do without the love from Passions family. Having all this support at this difficult time in my life helps more than you could know. Sven, a candle in the dark to help light my way...just what I needed. Thank you for being my friend. Take me as I am or watch me as I go |
