Flames of hate are rising, anger bubbling over. Its intensity is surprising and difficult to hold under, under my skin, in my mind. I'm tired of being so kind. Don't wanna keep my thoughts unknown. Loyalty is breached, no solution can be reached. Calmness overthrown by rage, fueled by betrayal, alienation imminent, no sympathy for the loyal, Only hostility. Stinging words used malapropriately, truth tainted by gossip. One trying discreetly to sever the bonds of friendship. Rationality thrown away, this pain is here to stay... |

 (big hugggssssssss) Oh Joe, I know just how you feel, generally I am always a person who wants to love everyone and make peace with all, but if someone does something abusive or unfair, I never hesitate to speak up. (sigh) My heart goes to you, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Joe, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
