I walk out the door Can't take anymore Patience has wore Yet life goes on I take back my heart Remove the poisonous dart That seeped into each part Yet life goes on I wipe away the tears Shed for many years Sobs that no one hears Yet life goes on I discover more lies The last shred dies Our love softly cries Yet life goes on I look you in the face Silently I rest my case My heart is out of place Yet life goes on I walk this road alone Chilled to the bone Heart as heavy as stone Yet life goes on ---------------------------------------------------- Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

I walk this road alone Chilled to the bone Heart as heavy as stone Yet life goes on The pain in this one just grabs me my friend. Yes life does go on, and your friends will be there to walk with you.

" I walk this road alone Chilled to the bone Heart as heavy as stone Yet life goes on" Indeed life does...go on. And dark as the sky may be, dull as the sun may seem, and bad as the pain may be...all things change, become memories; the sky clears, the sun brightens, the pain subsides...time, changes all, and love again presents it's smile. Hang in there... jwesley |

It's funny, all of us who hurt know that Life goes on..but it sure does'nt feel like it at the time. The pain and the hurt we have to feel to get to a better palce is sometimes so unfair. Would'nt it be nice to just skip that beggining and get to the "Life HAS gone on part?  One thing foe certain, we are never completley alone. Take Care of your heart and one day it will take care of you. (So my gramdma says. Jenn E |

How true to life your words ring out. Taking back your heart and removing the poisonous dart is the hard part and you seem to have portrayed this very well. Great piece!!!!!!!!! |

JM . . . Last thing I want to do is break your precious heart my friend. Please forgive me? I take tiny steps these days, but they do move forward slowly. Thank you very much. I hope you are right. EagleOne . . . Thank you, I know. I have wonderful friends who care very much. Sudhir . . . Thanks my friend. There will be an end to the pain soon . . . I know it. Serenity . . . We are all moody at times!! LOL. Thank you, right back at ya!! Paula . . . That is all I know these days. Jwesley . . . I hope you are right. Thank you for the kind words. Perhaps we should talk sometime? BDC . . . Thank you my friend. Not easy, but somehow getting by. Sigh. Jenn E . . . I wish I could skip it, but it is a part of who I am and there are lessons to be learned here. You're grandma sounds very wise there. oh2beme . . . Thank you. I know these feelings well. Wish I didn't at times. Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
