IF ONLY If only I had told you all the things I had to say I rehearsed them in my mind so many times each day. But never seemed to find the right time to really say there was always something that kept getting in the way Now it is too late you see for you have gone away Maybe if I'd said them you would still be here today But now you've gone and I am lonely repeating over in my mind.......IF ONLY nona this is a repost that got lost sometime ago.. |

Reposts are great! The "if only" will soon change to "been there, done that, moving forward...." it will happen... good job... |

Boy, do I understand this. But, everything happens for a reason, at least, that's what I say to keep sane. ![]() Great write, nona! sp ![]() I won't go; I won't sleep; I can't breathe until you're resting here with me... |

Aww.....I have had to go through this and it is hard. Eventually you will walk with peace though. ![]() Sauni Sauni :) Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps |

Have done this myself a few times and all is not lost because important lessons are learned and we usually improve our peformance the next time and the new one benefits from out appreciation and desire...we will never do it perfectly...it will just be the right moment and the right opportunity....James |
