Am I being cynical or maybe just getting old but it's out with friendship, out with love forget about commitment that story's far too old never mind the time, or the care and the hugs Forget about making life fun and go find someone new promises of *you* and *I* now all wrapped and gone I'd like to say the words I spoke to you were true til I knew you were unfaithful then they were wrong But you did me a favour because then I found a man One who stood by all he knew and felt within his heart even though it meant we couldn't dream and plan I'd rather be alone in love than stay without a part I loved you then guess part of me will always care the silly little things that once meant everything but the truth in loving is in giving your heart to share with that thought in mind, I just took off your ring! *phew* ...doesn't that feel better...*g* Don't ask me where I'm going, just listen when I'm gone and far away you'll hear me singing softly to the dawn. |

It does sound like it feels better, Rainbow. Glad you found someone worth it. Elizabeth Nail to the mast her holy flag, Set every threadbare sail- And give her to the god of storms, The lightning and the gale! -Oliver Wendell Holmes |

If you did it and it feels good, then it was the right thing to do, Rainbow. |

Guys: Yes, I do tend to write as I feel (Elizabeth..  ..)...but this is old really but when my last marriage broke up I felt I had to make a date ( I referred to it in a poem somewhere) to somehow make it symbolic..after all, the vows I made were...but throughout all the nasty bits somehow you believe (or I do) that what you think is not really happening...anyway, I don't love him, haven't for a long time but the end of a marriage is always hard, however you feel and I have a few things coming up that need my time and concentration and this Christmas showed me that I live within a world of dreams and it was high time I lived those dreams and you can only do that...when you're free...so I let go...HUGS Don't ask me where I'm going, just listen when I'm gone and far away you'll hear me singing softly to the dawn. |

great poem, heartfelt felings great job! ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |

Great RG! Only way to go on is to let go to what's holding us back. Good for you! <*\\\>< Where there is faith, there is love. Where there is love, there is peace. Where there is peace, there is GOD. Where there is GOD, there is no need. Hallmark |

All right Rainbow--find that pot of gold! In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |

Forget about those "finger rings" That ain't the way to go, What you need's a cuddly rag, Wrapped around your Toe. I never leave a shade of green, Like a silly gold-tone ring, And "Toerags" never ever hurt, They just gander up your skirt! |

Paul: LOL, that was apt timing.. I got the divorce papers on Saturday..HUGS Nan: I guess it's a case of "it you don't succeed at first then try, try and try again"..or is it 3rd time lucky?..*g* HUSG Martie: Thanks.. HUGS Suthern: So that's what made my crystal shatter...ooops...*G* HUSG Rus: Yep, it was but I'm a believer in fate, so it was meant to be.. HUGS JTF: This means you're on your knees - again?..*g* HUSG First-Knight: Well, all dreams need replenishing from time to time..*g* HUGS Toe: ROFLMAO!!! HUSG Don't ask me where I'm going, just listen when I'm gone and far away you'll hear me singing softly to the dawn. |
