What lessons have I learned,
why am I here?
To learn the pain of love,
to learn the fright of fear?

I wonder if happiness
will ever come to be?
And, shine the light of love
brightly upon me?

Am I to learn the gift
of giving more unselfishly?
And, pouring out my love
to the one who is dear to me?

Of all these things I've learned,
and of all those which are still ahead of me,
I can't help but wonder
what else is included in my path of destiny.

"...at night I cling to you I'm so afraid;
afraid the day will come
and I'll wake up and find you gone.
But you promise that you'd not abandon me
and kissed my fears away
but I woke up to that day..."

Very nice entrance into the forums, Sasikat.

"Of all these things I've learned,
and of all those which are still ahead of me,
I can't help but wonder
what else is included in my path of destiny."

Yep, who knows what's ahead.

This reminds me of one of my favorite poems:

Still round the corner there may wait,
A new road or a secret gate.
~J.R.R. Tolkien

Welcome, Sasikat.

WELCOME to Passions...
wonderful poem...you will love it here, everyone is supportive and kind

take care, janet marie

Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme,
They are not measured by the commitment of time.
Some emotions run too deep to be described by words,
Forgiveness and understanding-
remain the most beautiful words ever heard.

*peeks way back to far away times* This is lovely u-gene.. I can really feel where you're writing from.

With a little piece of tomorrow,
You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye.
Because today won't last forever,
And the past will only make you cry.
