The air is sticky and hot
How I came here I forgot
All I remember is waking up
Next to an empty cup

No one can really explain
This nonstop emotional train
It barreled right on by
I never even said good-bye

I finally accept my fate
Letting go of anger and hate
I look now instead
To the road up ahead

The pathway is clear
In spite of my fear
There's a sparkle in my eye
Replacing tears I've cried

No more pain and sorrow
Only dreams of tomorrow
Fill my empty heart
A new course I'll chart

Come take my hand
Together love expands
Giving us a chance
At life's miraculous dance


All writing comes
by the grace of God.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

tomorrow is the only thing keeping me going at times and I know people say we should live in the present and I try, oh I try   these were positive flowing words, Jennifer.

Nicely written and of coarse tomorrows  a new day.

Do not fear going forward slowly,
Fear only standing still.

vandana: Thanks!

VAS: The dance is always on, my friend, all we have to do is join in.

Futterwings: It's very sincere and I know it's going to happen.  Thank you!

Kathleen: All we can do is try, sweetheart.  Tomorrow keeps me going also, you never know what joys it will bring.  Thank you much!  

Shadow: Always a new day awaiting us no matter what today holds.

Logan: Aww, what a sweet thing to say!!  It has made me smile to know you are proud of me, my friend.  You so remind me of my father at times.  Smiles to you!
