Eraser gone
From words mistaken.
Lips are still
Hands are tied
Tears are just so far away, and,

I still have to live today…

Fetal point
And on the couch.
The cries of others echo.
Screams of them
Ring through my bones,
I answer each with abject groans.

Irony is living
When the ones I love most die.

Pain is always giving
And I always want to cry.

My hands ache too much to write
My body feels what I don’t.

…But letters just won’t speak
Like I want them to say,
My body's getting weak, and

I still have to live today…


- And so it was that time stood still -
     (blink, breathe, stand, fight)

Will the wind ever remember the names
it has blown in the past with
its crutch its old age and its widsom
it whispers no this won't be the last

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Alyssa, I hope everything is alright, dearest friend, I echo Lauren's words in saying you don't deserve to feel this way and no one ever should and I wish for stillness of heart to come to you! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Alyssa, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Dixie,
thank you... I know you know.. and yes, that in itself I think is the most ironic thing in existence... love you, too.

Greeneyes,
my mind and the doctors tell me the same thing lol but my body certainly sends different signals. I'm sorry to hear that you relate.... thank you.


Noah,
Everything is as good as it gets for me. And I do deserve this, all mankind does, I just don't understand why I'm the one getting it. But its ok, I'm willing, if it is my task. You're a sweetheart noah, thank you

Always, Alyssa
