When you once held her hand and her heart for an eternity
Did you see the pain in her eyes
I saw it reflecting back at me
It screamed at me with silent cries

She tried to get you to understand
But understand you did not
Begging with you to listen with your heart not your ears
Instead though you turned off your emotion, too involved with your own fears

While you were so sure of yourself
She was the one left in doubt
I heard the pain in her voice
To you though...she had to shout

Why did you even love her
If you knew this was how it would end?
Do you realise the pain you've caused
No this broken heart...you can't mend

The birds heard her laughing once
So did I
That was before reality set in for her
And she said her final "goodbye"


The rain forming all around her
Yet somehow she still cares about you
I'll never understand her heart
I'm here though to help her through

When the the time comes and she leaves
And you're trying to figure out why
Perhaps you should look within yourself
And realise...to your own self you did lie


"love is like a butterfly--
if you chase it,
it will surely fly away,instead
hold it close and watch it grow into
something beautiful"

Amy...it's hard to see a loved one hurt in this way, the pain you feel is in your words.

(big hugggsssssss) Living a lie can truly be the biggest embarrassment, dearest friend, knowing all that you feel is a facsimile later then wondering exactly what is real! (sad sigh) My heart goes out to the loved one hurt here, sweet friend, God Bless You, you have a heart that's sensitive and sweet, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Amy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
