For what reason did you lie Truth could hurt no more than this To find all that you said untrue I freely gave my heart to you It was a gift you threw away Deception was the game you played For me it never was a game I trusted you with all of me I believed; but now I see You're only an illusion Peppermint Life is a Wheel |

Thanks SEA...luckily for me, I'm not feeling this way just now (though I have, oh yeah)...but I wrote this for a good friend, cause she's going through it right now...and I know just how that feels. Peppermint Life is a Wheel |

Thanks Sunshine, Kathleen, your kind words mean a lot to me Yes, Mick, I sent it to her. She says it's helping her put a period and move on. Pepper "I honor the place in you, that when you are in that place, and I am in that place in me, we are in the same place" Ram Dass |

'I trusted you with all of me I believed; but now I see You're only an illusion' Absolutely another one I can relate to! Excellent write, my friend!! sp Do not go where the path may lead, but instead, go where there is no path and leave a trail. - Ralph Waldo Emerson |
