Why is it so hard to let go? Even when you really should? You know that I've just wanted you to be happy, Even though you hurt me so. And so, I've come back, back to the place where I began And I wonder, "Is it time again?" Time to start over, and find a friend. All I've ever wanted is your happiness And I'm glad that you've found it (or so you say) But it still hurts when you talk about her Like you've forgotten me so quickly. I put up the tree today, And I thought that I was doing pretty well Until I found the ornament that read, "Our First Christmas Together", And it reminded me of happier times. I know that you're happy, And I'm happy for you I just wish That you were happy with me. < !signature--> passion is life. . . ~Diana [This message has been edited by Passions Voice (edited 12-07-2000).] |

moving on is a process that each must do at their own speed...we all heal and let go at our own pace... you will find your new "happy" when your ready... well written sincere poem ... your emotions are felt ... take care jm I looked into the sky for my anthem The words and music came through But words and music can never touch the beauty that I've seen Looking into you |

Letting go and taking that first step to find your own happiness agian is never easy but there comes that time when you just have to reach out and go for it. It can be a very scary thing but then again, so is living in the past. This was a very heartfelt release from you my friend and I wish for you the happiness that you seek. That new friend just may be what is in order. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |

Passions, Realizing that life can move on and excepting that he has can be a hard thing. I wish you all the luck in the world and the happiest of holidays. Always remember there are other people who love you, and take comfort in that. ~~Tara aka rp25 :o) |

It's hard. . . you want what you feel you need. . . that's when you have to ask yourself the honest questions. . . Very heartfelt. . . ------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

Came back to add to my library. Yeah, I know, sounds like and excuse...so maybe it is but it works doesn't it? I have been waiting so long for one of your poems to hit the blue pages that I just had to re-read it. Hugs again my friend. Now, flash that pretty smile and go enjoy the smell of some roses. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |
