Why is it that my blindness Is so clearly seen when looking back? Why is it that my kindness Only leaves me open to attack? Why is it that my heart Just ends up getting in the way? Why is it that we part In silence with so much to say? Why is it that we hold Onto our pride with all our might? Why do our lives unfold As we miss chances to make right? Why did we meet at this young age Instead of when were older? Why do I cry upon this page Instead of on your shoulder? Why do you hold my everything, The life that I now lack? Why wont you take this love I bring? Why wont you take me back? |

WOW - awesome!!! I hope she does take you back. Your words are some that I seek. Does one have to swallow pride, to make the other speak. There's a oldier but goodie movie called "The Women" the b&w version. The cast is entirely women, where she realizes she can't have pride, for what's at stake in the name of love. I wish you luck my friend. I too am in your shoes, except that I'm a female. But if your friend is seeking solitude in your special place, guide her where to look. LP |

I know this is a hard place to be... sometimes its not over... they want to watch us... stay strong and hope for the best...perhaps the best for you is someone else.. time will tell the story...James |
