Waiting, Wishing, & Praying Amy M. Kennedy She sits and waits...her heart trying to win Tears fall down her face...as she realizes maybe she was wrong afterall Not wanting to give up hope...she turns her pain to the sky knowing her love isn't a sin The angels and heaven always there...even in her most tragic downfall Waiting, wishing, praying...is all that she can do She has made her feelings clear...nothing more to say What more do you do...when you've said the words "I love you" She feels in her heart...the time is slipping away The wind blows all around her...as she plays back the memories in her mind Of a more simpler time...when things were right When all that mattered...was the two of them And holding one another all throughout the night She knows life is hard...full of ups and downs Wouldn't change a thing...if she had to do it again So she sits and waits...tears silently fall when no one is around And she whispers the name of her lover...and it's carried by the wind. "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." "Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen." |

When you wouldn't change a thing, you know that you've been true to yourself ... If only things were simpler Amy ... sigh ... lovely, touching sentiments. Best wishes, /Kit |

good things come to those who wait...*smile* I know the waiting is the hardest part but we need time to work thru all the complications of love as well as the many emotions. you know you've done your best..to let them know how you feel, now you have to let fate work a while. easy for me to say right ![]() beautiful poem amy-girl very lovely. jm |

Amy....we wait, wish, and pray with you! Great work! 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 |

She sits and waits and has learned about the bruises that life has tested upon her, and she knows deep inside - that each love and pain that she has had in her life makes her grow so much stronger. Lovely, heartfelt poem. Keep it, don't let it blow away in the wind -- ~netswan |
