(an oldie from years ago) Forgiveness may not have come in time, like I thought it had, I still feel pain when you touch, I cry again, and I'm still sad. I've tried to muster the energy to start this love brand new, but really, nothing's changed and there's nothing you can do. It's a shame to know someone so many years and not be friends, battle scars caused by open wounds that forgiveness cannot cleanse. |

Perhaps a Forgiveness Salve made with some lavender would heal those wounds. Hugs to you, Ms Dixie, Linda |

A beautiful poem Dixie and one I so enjoyed, isn't it great to have some oldies to fall back on and share, we should all do this from time to time. Have a great day. Rick |

An oldie but goodie!! JL What I used to do with one hand tied behind my back now requires every muscle in my body, cohesively. |

this is a very sad, emotional piece of writing that holds the truth within its words. |

Then and now, you express yourself so clearly in the emotions of your art. So many can relate to the hopelessness of a dying love. How wonderful to reach the other side of the chasm left in a human heart. Well done Dixie. |

Hi Dixie...I hope you are well. Forgiveness is such a miracle really, if one can muster it. It takes much strength. |
