The warm gentle breeze lightly caresses my cheek the tears begin to streak slowly down my face There is a sharp pain deep within my chest i have failed the test put before me today The hurt is immense more intense than ever you think you're so clever getting it your way Now I am alone which way to turn my heart already burned beyond all recognition What will now become of the charred remains that bear dark red stains and several jagged scars From the awful breaking that your words caused could you have paused to consider how I felt Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.

Kathleen, Thanks for the encouragement. I feel as though I was tested and in the eyes of the one I love have failed miserably. Glad you liked it. A ray of light through the dark perhaps......

Same thing happened over here last night for me Lone Wolf, I know how you feel all too well. I fail in some ways too... I understand. A heart and soul are not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Isis, Thank you for understanding. Sorry that you relate so well....truly unfortunate. Just feel like I failed.....him and myself. Not a good way to feel at all. Could it be that we have more in common than we thought?? Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.

Oh Lone wolf, I really know this feeling too well. Your poem almost brought me to tears. All the pain and emotions...reminds me of one I did "Rejected". Hopefully in time this feeling of failure will leave you. I'm here if you need to talk. Daniel [This message has been edited by dhuron (edited 04-20-2000).] |

Daniel, Thank you for the offer to talk.....would like that some time. Sorry you too can relate to this feeling. Have a kleenex for those tears....I do have a great deal of pain and other emotions right now. I am sure time will heal my pain......eventually.

This was soo sad to read, but don't say you have failed. It just wasn't right for you but that doesn't make you a failure. Tracie~ Keep all the windows of your mind open Anne Rooks |

Tracie....thanks. I know it wasn't right, but thought it was for so long. Perhaps under different circumstances it could have been different. Know I am not a failure. Did all I could, but just tired of the battle. I surrender. Joel.....sorry to hit so close to home. Not many words for me either. Thanks for saying you feel for this and me. I feel for you too.

Lone Wolf I have felt like I failed many times...we learn from our experience and our mistakes and someday we will make better choices. Sometimes if we are where we don't belong we are set up for failure. For example my ex never seemed to consider how I felt...whether it was selfishness or because she didn't care about me or care if she lost me...I'm not totally sure of the reason..however I suspect she was just a selfish person and acted accordingly.

James, I know the mistakes are part of life. Just felt like a failure on this day....like maybe if I had done things differently, there would be a different ending. Sorry about your ex. Sounds like she hurt you pretty bad. E-mail me if you'd like to talk sometime....okay?? Thanks for the reply. Feeling better!!
