A heart of stone that cannot bleed Or one that soars an eagles flight. The choice is mine to make. I can go through life untouched by love And never feel that lonely ache But would that truly be life Or just a reflection in a muddy puddle A dim and murky shadow of what could be. Or I can chance the pain of sunburnt wings To bask in the warmth of a lovers caress To see my love in their eyes. Knowing there will be pain Knowing my heart will bleed But knowing its worth that sun splashed kiss So a heart that cant bleed? Or one that can soar? I'll take the wind any day. < !signature--> never say never [This message has been edited by Paula Finn (edited 07-15-2000).] |

Soar Paula Soar!!! Better to know love and lose, then to not know love and be alone. . . *sigh* Better to have a heart that knows love, than one that can know nothing. . . Excellent. . . ----------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

I'm with Marge on this one, fly girl! Fly! God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |

I'm in agreement. If chances aren't taken, life is not lived. 'Love like you've never been hurt...' Great poem, Paula. |

I'll take all the sun splashed kisses I can get because the thrill of them cannot be denied. To lose out on that feeling would be to lose out on life itself. I agree with you wholeheartedly, soar!! Excellent poem I enjoyed every thought. |
