Rain clouds found me here, again,
wondering why I was born.
I wish there was more to miss,
but words are all that I can mourn.


Sometimes, I have learned,
that you have to say goodbye.
And maybe I just wasn't meant
to hear your lullaby.

Jo,
Good to see you! ..yeah I'm doing okay, I just haven't been in anywhere near as much as I'd like. Been a busy several days and my body just doesn't seem to be doing well with the whole breathing, eating, standing, and sleeping thing, heh... I've missed you and all the others, though. Hopefully I'll have a chance to play with some ketchup.. err, yeah! Thanks much for your reply.

Always, Alyssa

"I wish there was more to miss,

poignantly melancholic, but exquisite words...

Perhaps they are tone-death and cannot sing any lullabies. I'm not, so I will sing one just for you, Golden Girl!

In fact, I'll have all my celestial friends join in and you can have  a magnificent choir of angels singing lullabies for our very darling, deserving Alyssa!

Ooops-a-daisy! I called up the wrong friends! Oh, well, they are singing just for you! lol

Loving hugs,

Alyssa,

  "Rain clouds found me here, again,
wondering why I was born."
   To share your shelter, share your shade,
   share your tear drops, share your rain.
  
   Each time you've shared a bit of you,
   it fills a bit of me
   Just knowing there's a you
   that understands of bit of me...


Hey...it's 12:39.  You get the message, Sweetie!  You are a gift to us.  Perhaps that's selfish, but I'm sure glad you were born!
              Luv ya,
                Cathy

Alyssa,

====================================
You warm my heart, ya' make me sad and then... you crack me up. Gotta love a girl like that!

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Larry,
I try not to be normal! Er, I don't really have to try very hard. What most people here read of me is only my depressing side, okay okay maybe I actually have a couple depressing sides... but I laugh a lot too, really! Glad I brought you a chuckle... Thanks for your read and reply!

Always, Alyssa
