In my dreams - my heart's a castle many rooms, but no one's there... One small tide could wash away All my secrets hidden there. If you would only come inside To dwell within my soul... My empty rooms would be no more Please love me - make me whole. ------------------ - poet FemmeFatale "The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone..." Henrik Ibsen (1826-1906) Norwegian dramatist lyric poet |

Very sweet, poetFemmeFatale. One thing I've learnt is to create a room for yourself - we're never alone when we care for ourselves. Here's my favourite quote: 'To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance' Oscar Wilde. |

Yes, a beautiful work that speaks volumes..!! Severn, I agree, loving thyself is the first step to loving others..it took me a long while to figure that one out... ------------------ "No one was ever ruined from without; The final ruin comes from within.".....Amelia E. Barr |
