What our emotion has become Takes me to a higher realm. A level so high, I haven't dreamed of it In my deepest fantasies. Though the storm clouds Bring in those overused expressions, Everyday brings me A new meaning. Tell me, Where do I go, What do I do, Now that all I cherish Has been taken? Where do I rest my head; When can I close My weary eyes? The sky has gone black Once again; The sun has been hidden From us. Don’t let go! That is the intention Of the storm. Hold on to my hand-- Don’t ask When to let go! Such a time will never come! I will always have you In my heart, Just so long As you hold on. Do not go where the path may lead, but instead, go where there is no path and leave a trail. - Ralph Waldo Emerson |

If a love is real and shared by two then it will weather even the roughest of storms and the respect for one another will grow in strength just from the battling against the onslaught of doubt. Wonderful, but heartwrenching write my friend. |
