I looked in the mirror, Not recognizing her face. Who was this woman Who had stolen my place? The sad looking eyes Were starring my way. This isn't the woman Who was with me today. No smile on her face, Only tears that stained. She wasn't here earlier, This woman looks strained! Her lips are quivering, And she seems so uptight. Where is the woman Who was with me last night? Her hands are trembling, She seems so full of fear. What will it take To bring brighter days near? Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future. ~Oscar Wilde~ |

Katherine, the face in the mirror is the angel in your heart! A wonderful first post at Passions! Welcome, and check your e-mail for a special greeting! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

sometimes I see this face in the mirror too. Good write Don't ever give in, if you do you've lost everything you've ever had and everything you hope to gain, but if you carry on your already winning. |

Heartwrenching for those who understand because they've been there! Well said. Welcome to Passions! I shall look forward, greatly, to more from you. |
