The eyes look do they really see what's hidden deep inside me The eyes look they pierce my flesh the blood flows fresh The eyes look there's no feeling there just a flat blank stare The eyes look from behind the mask removing it, enormous task The eyes look examine my bare soul try to discern my role The eyes look beneath the surface deep hidden secrets they keep The eyes look hatred fills the room my heart feels impending doom Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.

This really struck me at the end. I don't think I expected such a powerful ending. This one made me think. Lori ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean. Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens. Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance. And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance - I hope you dance. song by LeeAnn Womack ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |

The eyes look, the heart feels, and the soul suffers.... ~~very emotional writing LW ~~ A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

Marge - Yes, much longing there and the view is sad now, but tomorrow is a brighter day. Thank you as always for reading. DH - That is it exactly. Feeling very emotional these days.
