Who is what he is, Or what he seems to be? I really should be someone, Someone but not me. To know a person completely, Though rewarding is unknown. People in this world of changing faces, Like leaves by the wind are blown. What is it that drives us, To do things we shouldn't do? To leave our lives and minds behind, And awake to question..who? Oh, to have the power, To change our lives at will. To rechart our lives, our destiny, And climb a different hill. That, of course, can never be, We're stuck with who we are. Our fondest dreams of change and hope, Must be viewed from here afar. To me, you will remain, A love unknown, untried. That's not the way I want it, For what it's worth...I cried. |

Thank you all for the warm welcomes. I have wanted to respond so many times to things you all have written but did not feel I had the right until I had the courage to post my own. Bet there are many "lurkers" who feel the same. I am an old lady of 52 [This message has been edited by Cperazzi (edited 03-30-2000).] |

Cperazzi, Welcome to the family. But don't say that you are old --- the heart has no age it knows no boundaries for only the human heart knows immortality. We are glad you are here! ![]() ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A. Woodson, Jr. |
