I see you, but do you see me Tell me why, can't it be My heart to you I have sent Only to have it broken and bent I was a woman once full of life Until you jabbed me with the knife You dug it deep as you could go Your love for me you never showed When I was up you knocked me down Flat on my face, straight to the ground You thought you had put me in my place As I could see the smirk on your face But while I was being pushed down There came some revelations I have found My heart you thought you had turned cold But I'll tell you this and I'll be quite bold Your love's not worth what I have to give For you alone I would never live I pull that knife straight out of my heart And with these words, we shall ever impart Here's the knife you gave to me Where's the smile I used to see Now it's time for you to know I have many more places to go For you see, I have lots of friends Who love me for who I am until the end No more of your abuse will I take A new life for myself I'll make For somewhere there's a man for me Who see's the true beauty of what I can be So close your eyes and hold your breath And when they open I'll have left With a smile wrapped upon my face With all my love, beauty, and grace For now I have set myself free From all of your wicked misery You're heart's the one that has turned cold And will remain until you're old But my heart is so full of life And one day I'll make a wonderful wife So don't touch me even once more Or you'll find yourself upon that floor I am woman, make no mistake And I choose who of my heart partakes angelblueyes |

For you see, I have lots of friends Who love me for who I am until the end No more of your abuse will I take A new life for myself I'll make For somewhere there's a man for me Who see's the true beauty of what I can be So close your eyes and hold your breath And when they open I'll have left Angel, this is a beautiful and positive write. You are woman and you are strong!!  Hugs  Ethel |

It's nice to come out the other side. Sure bruised at heart, but still able to rise from the rubble of anothers obvious inward battle with themselves. Those of us in their proximity, no matter how well meaning are brusised by their inner hurt, and pain. GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!! BRAVO!!! for coming out the other side with a fighting spirit...you are, after all a good, and worthy cause to fight for!!! SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |

Marge:Thank you.With each day I realize it's worth every fight and struggle to let the light back in. Ethel:Thank you very much.It took me awhile to realize that,but now I would give my dreams up for noone or nothing. SharaRose: Thanks very much.I know that I am and every being on this earth is.I wish that each one of us could see that.I'm a tender heart and a gentle soul, but I now realize each dream is worth fighting for. angelblueyes |
