Hanging onto this vine of life I cling....waiting....wishing...hoping When I open my eyes It is only me that I see Torn in half, unable to speak I realize that this is forever Some things you can not undo No matter how you try Looking in the mirror I watch and follow the single tear Falling down my face It cleanses my skin, making it new again These eyes still hold dreams Breaking through is proving tough One never to give up I will continue to try, to fight Sometimes I am frozen Other times I move around freely Always though I think of you Wondering...thinking...praying Saying goodbye so many times now Shouldn't it come easy I should be detached, should feel nothing Thanking God that I do My heart and life will go on One foot in front of the other Farewell to the past Hello to the future "Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away" |

“My heart and life will go on One foot in front of the other Farewell to the past Hello to the future” ‘Parting is such sweet sorrow’ When moving on is the best option. Great write. JL ![]() Blessed are those who are generous, because they feed the poor. |

"Torn in half, unable to speak I realize that this is forever Some things you can not undo No matter how you try" ~ Oh, I do know what you mean. We may not be able to undo things that have been done, but thankfully our pain does lessen with the passing of time. "My heart and life will go on One foot in front of the other Farewell to the past Hello to the future" ~ Thatta girl! The Aismter will get back into the game of life and will hit home-runs regardless of the curved balls that are thrown at her! ![]() Loving hug and a smile, Linda ![]() |

"I should be detached, should feel nothing" those times are only temporary... You wouldn't be a caring human if you didn't "feel" ![]() M |

Thanks for the cheering up you guys! I need it today. I think I got the September blues. Fall is a hard time of the year for me--but missing my Mom(s) is a daily thing....just sometimes it hits me harder than others I guess. Thanks for "listening"...truly appreciated. Glad to be writing again. I have missed this place. Sticking around for a while I think. "Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away" |
