there are no words i can say that could ever express the depth on my pain rendered speechless by your abrupt departure you left me at the precise moment i needed you the most your cutting remarks wounding me as never before you will not witness the endless flow of tears or know what hunger left me wanting just your touch or a bit of understanding the kind most lovers take for granted day by day you, who i have waited for six long years hanging on in the hope that just once you would level with me instead of making promises you never planned to keep so much for long-distance romances that leave you speechless when they reach the bitter end There must be a poem in here somewhere. |

Ouch! The ending hurts less in the long run than the hanging on. But not at first. Lori |

Six years is a long time. You are worth so much more than such treatment. As painful as this is to hear, rather now than later. Healing will take a long time, moving on, even longer. Some words that are so simple, but have given me much solace many times, are, to the best of my knowledge, a quote from the Bible: This too shall pass. Hugs Owl |
