At last I have some time my own But this day’s full of misery Stymied, I’m sitting all alone Wishing for what will never be My former home’s a place of pain I’ve running start on endless fall For games, I have only disdain But I managed to drop the ball I’d give you all I have to give But there’s no hope of light ahead This breathing hell is how I live I sleep with tears and wake in dread |

Sounds like the same melancholy mood I have been in for weeks now. I understand this suthern...I really do. Your friend - Kevin. |

You've penned a well-said tale that never tires in the telling. Laments for that lost one seem never to end, but they do. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

Tears tend to be soul cleaners, my friend. They may hurt to use but each carries away a little of the pain. Waking in dread, unfortunately, is never easy. We always dread that which we don't want, can't believe, refuse to accept, but with time and tears...even that becomes easier. My heart holds yours tight... jimmy |

This breathing hell is how I live ----------------------------- some lines just kick us in the chest and knock the wind out of us... it takes a powerful pen to write it out with such emotional honesty...yours is a mighty sword. one drop, an ocean ... one seed, the forest ... one leaf, the wind ... |
