Lies after lies and unfulfilled dreams
More than a decade I let myself believe
With words that spoke so true, so convincing to me
I'll never grasp how one could fool me so easily
Soul mates are fiction
In the end you will see
I let one take my faith from my vision of love
I'm sarcastic and don't trust anyone just yet
I pray this will change
because it's not who I am
Time heals, they say
But how long will it take
to be the person I know I once was?

Oh yes, Julia...I know this well...

I believe, though, that it can and will change...
with time...and that soul mates do exist...because,
though I've not found my own, I've been a witness
to it's beauty...*smile*

Hugs to you, my new friend...

When the power of love overcomes the
love of power the world will know peace.

oooh Julia . . .
I adore this
How long?  hmm . . .
well I , too promised myself
to a "soulmate" only to find
they were to be a "cellmate"
no one should imprision
something so beautiful as you
or anyone for that matter . . .

I am just finding me now . . .
and that person I once was
is no longer, just enhanced
beautifully  
*smile*

God, I know this so well
Beautiful writing
xxoo

Lies, and jealousy, are the two greatest killers of love that I have discovered.

And I'm saddned that you too have learned this.

Hugs Sis,

Julia I could sense the heartache and pain
and  over time , when the hurt heals  ,  I hope you will be able to trust once again

~Sigh~
I know this so well,
Though I wish I didn't
I don't believe in "time heals"
I believe no one can heal you
But yourself
And that's a hard job to
accomplish
I don't think I've seen you around
Here before, so welcome to Passions...
Even if I am a little late
~Hugs~

This is kind of deceptive as the tone implies a certain cautionary reticence where between the lines I read hope.

There's a lot of healing going on in here--and that is a cause for celebration in itself.

and smiling at "the person I once was..."

I can only vouch for me, but besides the boredom factor of "been there done that"--in truth I didn't like that "me" much anyhow.

Now if only I can stop this compulsion to read the last page first... with grins and hugs hello.

Nice to meet ya. (more family! Yea!)

Enjoyed.
