Here I sit
Alone
In my lonliness
Here I sit
Wishing for peace
or quiet
Or a piece of quiet
I wouldn't trade it for the world
Here I sit
In the light of the dark times
Making my way
Breathing it all in
Taking advantage of everything life has to offer
Learning
Listening
Living
Here I sit
Understanding the riddles of all times
Caring about people and things
more than I have in a long time
Here I sit
LOVING MYSELF
Living with no regrets
Getting older and speaking my mind
Acting up
Acting crazy
All for enjoyment of self
Here I sit
Waiting for the love of my life to appear
Here I sit
Enraptured in the glory of this very moment
Music playing
and I sit
I sit..
I sit..
I stand and walk out the door into the sunlight
Through it all I'm still here..
I'm still right here...

Love,
Ladycat

*I turned 26 on the 2nd of April and I'm still here. I made it for one more year. I'm still living, loving and I still have the greatest son. I'm still alive and happy. I still love PIP and I'm still moving and making my way in life. Thank you all for loving me and be some of the best friends that I could ever have. Man, I have been around here for a long time. *tears*

Farewell my forever friend, may safe journeys in life always lead you home.

I am
You are
We will always be...

LadyCat,

Happy late birthday. I would also like to wish a belated birthday to Lost Dreamer who we also seemed to forget to wish a happy birthday to. Hope you both have a very happy belated birthday and just think, you get to celebrate twice this way

Dear Ladycat,

I can relate to your wonderful poem. There have been a few times in my life when I wondered if I would be around for long. I enjoyed this very much. Also, Happy Belated Birthday!

Patricia
