Why?
~ By Sue ~

To mend a broken heart
It seems to take too long
Heartaches of yesterday
Just seem to linger on

It's been sixty-two days
Since I left him back there
Time is moving too slow
I wish I did not care

I deal with these feelings
And the memories that are there
Of how it use to be
And how much we had shared

Sometimes I feel the pain
He so graciously gave
And I wonder why
It was me who had to pay

Very well said Sue!
I'm sure he is feeling somewhat remorse..
He's probably feeling some pain as well.

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Sue, my heart goes out to you, dearest friend, it is not easy to overcome it all but the robin shall restore amends like Shakespeare says at some point, you'll see! (sigh) I send many angel hugs your way, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

SmartChick, I know this feeling well.

I think that hurting someone's Heart should be a hate crime,
Because getting it to heal takes a long time.

Thank You for sharing.

I hear you Sue. You wrote very well of your feelings. I could feel your pain.

...but don't watch the clock--it will tick tock tooooo slowly.

I truly believe that you will get past this pain. You have come a long way in reclaiming your personal power and redefining your life.

Hang in there, Sweet Sue,

Sending you some loving pink light to banish the blues away,

Linda

HeyGal~
Sometimes we continue to 'pay the piper',
long after the 'dance' is through~

But .... you're moving on nicely~
Best to you in your continuing journey~

Sue - dear lady, don't count the days in sadness, rather count them as your "getting stronger" days. Better yet.....don't count them at all. Life is too short to begin with. I have been where you are, and found the best thing to do is keep busy. Do nice things for yourself and just BREATHE. Enjoyed your write. hugs, Chris

I can't promise you that you will ever
"get over" all of this. But at some point the hurt recedes and you begin to count your blessings that a life with someone who doesn't know how to love you, is over.
