(This feels like a New Years Desolution to me today! )

Angels Or Demons
By: Noah Eaton
1/1/03

So this is how it feels to say goodbye
And this is how it feels to have one last resort
You said it's all going to stop and it's all my fault
You said because of me you will never be nice to anyone

And now you say there's no chance that we'll meet
There's no chance that I will make my love mine
You said the funny thing was I couldn't care less
You went out of your way then say I've made a mess

Now my love has died
Laying like a canary on the birdcage base
Feel like I'm heading for another breakdown
And I can't stand to look at your face
Now my love is dead
I am petrified like the Stonehedge
Like a fugitive in an empire
Joanna, goodbye

It was 5:30 late this afternoon
Read your abrupt message, you call me pathetic
And this will be the last time I call you up
This will be the next time I feel like a lunatic

Now my love has died
Laying like a canary on the birdcage base
Feel like I'm heading for another breakdown
And I can't stand to look at your face
Now my love is dead
I am petrified like the Stonehedge
Like a fugitive in an empire
Joanna, goodbye

So this is how it goes, I should've known
My oceans have been contaminated, I'm wearing broken bones
And as you run away from this castle, my Gwenevere
Know I will always love you, even when you'll never be here

Now my love has died
Laying like a canary on the birdcage base
Feel like I'm heading for another breakdown
And I can't stand to look at your face
Now my love is dead
I am petrified like the Stonehedge
Like a fugitive in an empire
Joanna, goodbye

And this will be the last time I call you up
This will be the next time I feel like a lunatic
I'm sorry, Joanna
I will never forget loving you...

(You will always be in my heart Joanna! )

Oh Noah....  
This is so sad. My heart goes out to you, dear friend. I am speechless, don't know what to say.  Just that I'm so sorry.


One more thing, Noah......
Why did Joanna's sister have to tell you this? Are you sure that it's the way Joanna feels?

So very sad, but like the prior message, why the sister?????? Keep your chin up, stiff upper lip and all that. Great write!

My perspective of me is different,
As I look out from within,
Than that of others on the outside,
Trying to look in.     ©spirit

Noah,

What sister? In this poem?

Noah, true love does not die. Have faith and trust God in all matters, even and especially of the heart.
Rejection hurts and choices we make that don't turn out ~yet~ doesn't mean they won't. Patience and perseverance are such hard lessons to learn. They don't happen overnight. And they are not free. We pay for them. Really takes a chunk out of us to achieve, ~painfully~ whittling us down to the sparkling gems we eventually become, in God's eyes. My heart is with you Noah. Disappointment of love not returned is just that. I weep with you. God be and ~is~ with you. You are not alone and He is working on this very problem of yours as I write this note. Perhaps she is just embarrassed over being made such a public figure, if you will. An honor, for sure, but for one so young, might be a little bewildering and overwhelming. Also, I've found sometimes backgrounds make a difference when I've dealt with romance. Sophistication, education, environmental conditioning all matter.
When love is from God, it works, no matter these facets, but, takes time.

Hang in there Noah, and stay in the day and pray. Love ya, Hugs, Pat


Hugs and love, Pat

Oh Noah, my heart is breaking for you. I don't understand the sister part either, but I sure can feel your pain and sorrow in this write.

I am so sorry you and Joanna are having problems. Maybe, maybe this relationship can still be saved. Hang in there and know we are all here for you.  

Huggles dear one ... Marti

Noah:

The heart of the poet knows the broken bones, and rises to illiterate the experience.  Find strength in your gifts, and let your faith wrap around you...
Sometimes we are sent on a journey for a reason that we cannot know.  You will survive, and every hand at Pip is on your shoulder.  ThisDiamond

Oh Noah. I have few words of comfort to offer. Just remember, a few of us, no, many poets and friends have been crushed by love's cold unkindness as well as its tender warmth.
You are smart to let your heart beat out the pain freely. Holding it inside only makes it hurt longer.

You are one of the sweetest sounding people I have ever heard. You have a lot to offer someone so don't give up on yourself. Sometimes when the time is wrong it just really doesn't matter what was done right....but, when the time is right It will matter a lot.  Your time is coming

I am truely sorry for your pain Noah

I’m so sorry to hear of your pain Noah. Unfortunately, heartbreak is a sign of being alive, it’s also a sign that there was someone precious in our life, no matter how fleeting it may have been. I truly believe that’s it’s better to have had the love and lost it, than never to have had the love at all. May your fond memories comfort you when you feel the pain. You are surrounded by friends, and we’re here for you. hugs.

Oh my gosh Noah; this hit me hard in the stomach. I'm so sorry that someone so wonderful is experiencing something so horrible. You're in my thoughts and in my prayers... stay strong and the rainbow will emerge, I promise.

The soul would have no rainbows, had the eyes no tears.
