Some people can find ways out of impossible situations. Those are the trail blazers, the history makers. I'm not as big or strong as I used to be, not one of the givers, not one of the takers. I just walk on. I want no place in history, nor in your heart, I don't want to hold it together when it is falling apart. I just walk on. We have what we have- you were right about that, but it's never been good enough- you never saw it from where you're at... even now when I need you more than day needs dawn, more than night needs dusk. So I'm just walking on. [This message has been edited by passing shadows (03-13-2008 12:18 PM).] |

It takes that, and much more than that to give a message to someone that you are not where you want to be, not with who you want to be with, not going any further...James |

There you go, I found out recently what you already knew about the family here. If you need a shoulder to lean on, take a look around you.... The ugly one bringing up the rear is me ! |

I love the kind of thoughts this art makes me have. The struggle of just walking on when it can be really hard. Very good ![]() |
