The phone rang, a question asked
and I with my mouth open in disbelief.....
stood listening, shaking my head
almost in half laugh to myself.

It would seem that you are having
a hard time living with the decisions
that you made then,
although in your delusional mind
I am sure that you felt it appropriate
to ask.....

That one question seemed to mark
the true levels of your
intelligence,
"the porch light is on,
why,
are you expecting company?"

One moment is all it takes
to make the biggest of mistakes...


Until that moment,
I believed that I wanted
to be in love with you.....



One constant in life is definately the fact that once you manage to get past one obstacle, another one will surely arise, and we as the women that we are, holding the strength that we do, will always rise to the occasion!

Sometimes those are the kind of moments that wake us up, if only to turn the light off.

As always you write with a gentle heart, dear Donna~

(big angel hugs) Oh Donna, for those who truly experience these kinds of misfortunes or betrayals, my heart goes out to them all as a single moment can be enough to bring static to our minds! (sad sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Donna, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
