The shell that is me has emptied The contents that filled it all these years Time changes all and I am not immune Part of me that couldn’t live without you Now lays on the ground next to the hurt Growing and changing, a new being inside Learning to know and like myself After loving only you New challenges, different goals Only the shell remains inert Our future although changing From what we had always planned Is still a time of hope for me You let me know where I fit in with you By letting my love wither and die I refuse to stay down and wallow In a puddle of self-imposed pity Where I had kept myself Time for me to move on and say “Gimme my wings; it’s time for me to fly” Love one another-let God do the worrying, Rodney |

Fly Rodney Fly!! You've mourned and now your life can begin again. I don't promise it'll be easy but with a spirit such as yours the rewards could be limitless. Bravo hon! Isis *War produces one thing - Cemetaries. And in cemetaries there are no enemies!* ~Isis~~Sovereign of the Spirit. |

Super thoughts to encourage someone else in this situation. Yes, change always comes. And often we don't like it. Good job! *thanx* |
