On A Journey To The Unknown

A Life Without You
~By Sue~

Since the day you decided to leave
After the first two weeks went by
Not even knowing the reason you left
I no longer ask myself for the reason why

It had become so much clearer to me
I would be a whole lot better off without you
That you would no longer be there to prevent me
From doing all of the things I have wanted to do

I started looking forward to a life without you
Not having you there to make so many demands on me
Being able to do the things I always wanted to do
With a life to where I would once again be free

Sue,  too often the first step away is the
hardest one to take....But,  so very often,
the ones after it are much more sure and
light in step...as your own are becoming..

Hugs to ya..

Keep the Faith Sue - you deserve everything that you want out of life. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

SmartChick - I've read your poems for a while, and you are getting stronger with your thoughts. It's very difficult to let go, but with time the pain eases...

(smiles) Yes, turn the cold shoulder on those who make you feel bad and now embrace the special world that waits before you! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all wish you the best, 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,
Noah Eaton

Sue, I am so glad you are realizing how important 'freedom' is and that what you had was not a good thing.

Bless you my friend...we are all so proud of  you and have complete faith in you.

Hugs and loves, Marti

I still embrace it, for I know

there is a rose worth all the pain."
