On A Journey To The Unknown

Today
~ By Sue ~

I look way up into the sky
And, I can't help but wonder why
You were there for a little while
Then you took away all the smiles

A love that was there just for you
Until the day you said we were through
The pain I stuffed deep down inside
And all of the tears I did hide

Together I thought we would be
Until the end of time, you see
I really believed that you cared
But, my feelings you did not spare

Today I sit inside my house
And, I am glad I have no spouse

Sue,
Life indeed can be harsh. I admire your courage.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

It matters not how you answer, It matters only that i hear you.

Sad...but I think I heard a sigh of relief in this one too.

Yep, there's pain, and then there's glad pain that you don't mind so much after all....

Sounds like a good place...
Passing the coffee...and a smile.

Loved the last line!!! That's the spirit! I was getting a little bit worried about your state of mind when I began reading this great poem!

Loving hugs,
Linda

You go girl!

This is a wonderful format for your emote~

All my e-mails were being returned with a 'mailbox full' at this time from your other address~
I just added this one to my book
