Unlock

you touched my soul
then walked away
within this ache
no words to say
should be different
what did I not try
I’ll hold my end
if you want to tie
open all doors
just for you
if you unlock
and open too
a friendship rebuilt
as it should be
I’ll hold the door
you have the key

"Pour yourself thick, when it is you, that you spread."

(smiles) Soooooooo beautifully said, sweet friend, sometimes friendships can be broken but if we can setlle our differences always, friendships can always be rebuilt! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is excellent! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

very nicely done, I have tried, left the door open, but there are times that it is best to lock it for good.

Sometimes we are not given the choice to keep the door open.  Often others slam it and lock it before we even get a chance to say anything.  It's a shame, but perhaps for the best.  Nicely done, Helen.

by the grace of God.
