On A Journey To The Unknown

A Different Path
~By Sue~

There is a special place inside my heart
I stored all of the feelings from the start
To maybe someday have for later use
If I ever heal from all the abuse

The unkind words he said really hurt me
To believe my ears was so hard you see
They hurt me more than anyone knows
Those times my ears I always tried to close

A different path he did choose to take
So a new life for myself I will make
A life I think will be so much better
Because he and I cannot be together

The feelings I once felt for him are gone
With him I know I no longer belong

No one should put up with abuse! I like the upbeat ending of this one.

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Sue, this is so very sad, sweet friend, my heart goes out to you for no one deserves to be abused like that and now I am relieved you are free to find what you truly deserve! (sigh) My thoughts are with you, 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,
Noah Eaton

Good girl,  guts!   And you will feel the
freedom....if you have not already....

Hang in there and life will continue to
provide you with what you have always
desired....     To feel good about you...

Hi,
I had to respond to this one...if only to say  I've been there to. You're not alone and never will be....you are the most important person in your life and the best company...and now you're free to enjoy that ;o)

Well Sue, just look at you! New picture, new attitude.

I'm so proud of you....hugs, Marti

Every now and then take a good look at something not made
with hands -- a mountain, a star, the power of the ocean.
There will come to you wisdom,

I'm glad that you left this jerk! You deserve much better. You expressed yourself really well. Best of luck!
