~ By Sue ~ I look at the star, sitting way up high Sometimes I even wonder why You just did not care quite enough Because you made my life with you, too tough I tried to stick it out in hopes that you would change But instead it was my life you arranged The pain still comes and goes The reason why I do not know I remember all of the things you said and did The feelings that I had I always hid It had become so clear for me to see You just did not care how much you hurt me Still I thought things would get better Never was I one to be a quitter So I tried so hard to stand strong But everything I did, was wrong I wish I could forget the things we use to do When our lives together was still brand new There was no hope that I could see So I did what was best for me 7-5-03 |

....in the end it's all a person can really do. Sometimes what's best for you is to do what's best for the other person, but the principle's the same.... and you're blessed if you some idea in advance, just what "best" is. Solid piece of writing here, and one that would be pleasant to hear, even if one didn't know the language....just the sound and cadence without the meaning. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

At times it becomes necessary to admit that we made a mistake and go on with our lives...James |

Dear Sue, you write so well and powerfully about your pain! I so wish you could detach and open your heart to the NOW. I know how it hurts and how we are inclined to ponder over and over again what was done and said ... but I think we are meant to "walk together on the Path of our lives" for the time destined to teach each other some lessons of love and life and then we must go on ... we just have to let go, for there is more for us to explore ... our heart is immense and can give again and again .... My thoughts. Your poem you see touched me deeply. Love and hugs, dear Sue. Margherita  |

Dear Sue: Your poem touched me too, very deeply, because it is so well written about how this feels. It would truly be nice if one could simply mourn quickly, forget it all, and move on; unfortunately, we humans have to beat it up and analyze. But then, I think, perhaps if we really, truly cared, we have to give it a proper time of mourning, yes? Well written, my dear, well written indeed. Pepper |

You did your best, now all the rest is nothing but history...let it become nothing more than a few pages in life's journal and go forward toward a new horizon.... |
