The final chapter to a
Once never ending story quickly approaches
Prince said it best,
"I can't make you love me if you don't"
I close my heart against the pain
Of seeing you with another
Of seeing someone else get what should have been mine

Every kind touch
Every gentle smile
Was it a lie?
Was it imagined the love I saw in your eyes?
It had to be because you left
You walked away from the love I gave so freely
A million times a fool I feel
I am
But I move on and accept it all
Because it is all I can do
Except cry
But I grow weary of tears
So this is the end
The end
Goodbye



"The only love there is, is the love we make."--Prince

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Jacqueline, this is so very sad, my heart goes out to many lovers who are lovelorn when one love doesn't love the other as much and having to say goodbye by force! (kiss on cheek) I hope this no longer applies to you and you have found true happiness, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jacqueline, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Akkkkk......Oh how I do feel all of the
feelings within this...  Not a pleasurable
thing to do...I have always hated goodbyes...


But...you have captured it well...very well
indeed...

J. K. Mitchell - It seems that there is a lot of us in the same place recently. Sadness seems to reign, yet I pray that it will pass for all of us. Peace walk with you, as I would...
