"Scattered Pieces"

Everyday that we are apart
I become weaker
Losing this battle
How much longer can I hold out

                Our memories are becoming
                Sadly just that
                With every ounce of strength
                I have left I hold on

Rising to meet the next day
Quiet comfort I seek
Want to find your arms
Wrapped securely around me

               Tears fall slowly down my face
               As I scream out in pain
               Wondering do you feel it
               Do you feel it baby

Do you feel the love
That I reserve only for you
This precious bond bloomed
From the beautiful flower of friendship

              I promise you
              From the bottom of my heart
              I will love you
              Till death do us part

When you feel lonely
Like your whole world is all wrong
Listen to the wind carefully
And you will hear my words of love

             Look up in the sky
             There will be a rainbow just for you
             And at night when the stars shine
             Know that I'm always loving you

But right now I need some time
We have much to think about
The next step is huge
So please allow me this time
            
             I will come back to you
             I promise you with all that I am
             Will love you
             Till the end of time

Amy love, firstly this is a wonderful and awesome piece from you, really pure and loving. I can read your heart in this. If I can give you just a little advice, write a list, I know it sounds silly. But do it, and on the list write what you have recieved from your love, and what it has cost you. If and I know it will, if I say the list of what your love has given to you is so much longer than what it has cost you, then do it. My Mam, always used to say, and it is totally true, don't look back and say if only I'd. She said that you will always regret the things you didn't do. And you can never tell those you love too often how much they mean to you. (There was never anything either shy or reserved about any of my family love   )
Take care love and remember I can always find time for friends, so if you need me, you know I'll be there.

Amy my friend, there is no need to rush I am sure especially when the last chapter is wrapped in a binding as strong and beautiful as your love.  Superb read my friend.

Thanks to all who responded to this. You
all are so wonderful and mean very much to
me. I'm not sure where I should post this
at...but I did want to let you all know that
I am leaving Passions. I will return at some
point, a month or so from now. Not sure
exactly when. I have some things in my
life that I desperately need to get
straightened. If anyone has any questions
further feel free to email me. You all
are like family. Just know that I am doing
okay but that I need some time away. I am
sure you all can relate to that. Take care
of yourselves please.
Love,
Amy

We will be right here awaiting your return my friend and you take all the time you need.  Some things in life need a little time to settle in.  Have a wonderful Holiday and please know that I for one wish you all the answers that you seek.  Now you take care of you.
