I must Be! Dry tears are running down my face Fear holding my deepest embrace I cannot show tears of fear Not to myself Not to my Dear I must be strong I have to move on Emotions turmoil within head Keep to myself We’ll be ok, is what I said I cannot lose the rest of me As I have lost so much of thee Cannot give up and let them win Explore new Life From deep within Open my heart to trust in thee And be what I’m suppose to Be. |

True to self is being true to the world and where all happiness finds it's beginning. Well versed and very much enjoyed your work in this. |

Thank you for all your welcomed comments, I do appreciate this very much. And Yes Suthern please do! I am speechless as to all your kindness, thank you as it is so uplifting. The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |
