Tears had fallen, angry words spoken Our souls opened and our hearts broken ~*~ Then in a moment we fell to the pain We came to the crossroads....leave or remain ~*~ The answer would be either bandage or knife The single most important decision we’d make in our life ~*~ You looked into my eyes as I opened my heart One final chance to end....or to start ~*~ Locked in silence for years...keeping part of me from you But now there was no question...I knew just what to do ~*~ It was time to release the chains...free these bars I’d let you unlock the doors and heal the scars ~*~ Seeing each other finally...from the inside out The decision then to try...came without doubt ~*~ Hope shined bonding your heart and soul to mine The answer was so clear.....we’d make it...together this time |

Seeing each other finally...from the inside out The decision then to try...came without doubt ======================= that line says it all my SS of heart ... life doesnt always offer second chances .. we can only grow and learn from the things we discover in ourselves when one does come our way ... gently written poem of a promise to be kept ... beautiful reflection of your heart... but then what else can we expect from a butterfly HMMMM??? yayayaya I KNOW ...(can you say mood swing)LOL me aint scared (much) hehe me loves ya me |

Perfect deplay of the indecision in many relationships, and the turmoil to come out the other side. Looks like you have done it. I wish you great happiness. Sandra |

this is a very beautiful poem, when your able to unlock the chain and bars there's a freedom of which you've never seen. |

So very happy for you both my friend. I know that you two will make it and I am smiling very big. ==================================================== Share Your Gift The time has come from all you have learned For you to share all the things that you have yearned The gift is you and all that resides within your soul All the trials and tribulations that have taken their toll This is where all this care with you has been driven This is why the love bestowed upon you has been given You now know the strength that is encased in your being As you begin your new life; finally, for the first time seeing You have been taught how to love and to let one love you You have reached the pinnacles of stars from honesty's view You hold within your heart the power of tomorrow's glow So go and teach all the lessons of love you have come to know There is "one" residing within the reach of your beautiful wings Sharing the garden where the heart of the butterfly so often sings Trust in the heart within you and the one so close at your side Love to learn and learn to love with the one in which you reside There are the stars of that one night in which we forever hold The story of two becoming one kissing warmth from eyes so cold Poured forth from salted tears resting on that deck in luna's light We forever touched as soul-mates were joined in that forgiving night Mark Bohannan [This message has been edited by Mark Bohannan (edited 10-28-2000).] |

'Locked in silence for years...keeping part of me from you But now there was no question...I knew just what to do' Wonderful poem, butterflies! And, good luck, too!! It always works out when you try it together. sp Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: 'it might have been.' -John Greenleaf Whittier |
