she blesses my days with her words and her ways offering me some sanity too strong for her own good she grinds out the days kissing everyone's reality she's taught me a lesson in strength seeing what she can endure her soul still maintains it's integrity how does she stay so pure? she tells of her life i glimpse into her soul and it tears me to pieces to see the pain that it holds and to hear of it here when i'm so far away and have nothing to offer but an ear and dismay that life can do that to someone so pure and yet she smiles right through more than she should have to endure i wish i could trade places not with her though and not even with him but with one of his friends and just for a few days i'd give her her life back again... |

I see so much in this, well barely cause you moved me to tears again, how will I ever get those wings ![]() and soul shine through every word. Sometimes just knowing someone cares is enough, I know this is one of those times. Writing from your heart...there is nothing more beautiful than that Tony~ |

This shows your heart as you have been told and the sincerity of your plea is a tender loving one to say the least. I agree with Jm...the implications of the last lines are so very cool indeed. |

The depth of care poured from your pen. Often times we can't help someone who's in a bad situation, they must at long last do it themselves, for themselves. Peace. corinne |

I was adding this to my library...but I can't unless I reply again so I guess I'll have to tell ya I like it...again. My favorite part you ask....... ![]() i wish i could trade places not with her though and not even with him but with one of his friends Trading places not with your friend to take her place...not with your friend's husband/boyfriend...with a friend so you can be close to her and give her your support...very cool Tony~ |
