Reaching for your hand I touch and clasp it to my heart I open your fingers and take The key back that I let go You've done nothing wrong You've not hurt me one bit But I feel that I moved too soon And now you've begun to regret. I will be here when you need I will do all that I can do I will stand quietly in the wings Cheering for you as you grow. But as the phantom of the opera Hid his hideous self from others I shall do the same with my heart It is vile and casts wrong impressions. Don't be sad my dear Don't regret what you've said It's best we deal with this now Than forever live in regret. "You can't reason with your heart; it has it's own laws and thumps about things which the intellect scorns." ~ Mark Twain [This message has been edited by startin_fresh (edited 02-26-2001).] |

Powerful write here, full of pathos and compassion. Write on Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |

Dear Friend of Mine, I know your heart, and it is far from vile. Your heart is strong, sometimes probably more intensely strong than you like to know! (I can relate). Hiding it from others is not the key though, the key is embracing who you are meant to be....not what you are meant to do....but the glorious person, heart, soul, spirit, that you are meant to BE! With Love and Admiration for WHO YOU ARE! JULIE |

Now there is a wise heart. The message of this was wonderful. I applaud! "The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. Socrates |
