The fire crackled in the dark tonight The crickets churped in the grass There were no sounds of bustling around While I lay in your arms The fire crackled in the dark tonight I remember how it was When our fingers were forever linked And our hearts beat as one Tonight we played the parts again The holding, the kissing and the touching Tonight we fall into this trap again The one where we feel love I wonder if it's real this time? I wonder how you feel this time? Will you run or will you stay this time? Am I going to feel pain again this time? The fire crackled in the dark tonight As we sit here holding tight tonight To the past we've tried so hard to fight Always letting go, but holding on tonight.

thanks for the response this one came straight from the heart, with quite a bit of inpiration from life. It's hard to let go and move on when you keep falling back into the old games. "In three words I can sum up everything I learned about life: It Goes On" |

Yes it is hard to hold on and even harder to let go.... There is always the possibility the new fire might burn you so much more Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go. |

CUDDLEZ: there is always that thought that there is someone else who can make the fire burn, but as they say history has a way of repeating itself, and a comfort level is hard to get rid of.... It all about gaining the strenght to try something new, and it's slowly happening. Wayoutwalt: Thank you so much for responding!! Glad you liked it "In three words I can sum up everything I learned about life: It Goes On" |

It's a scary feeling not knowing where something may lead you to. Will they be there the next day, or are they only there for the short hours right now. A feeling I know too well... Thanks for reading, and I'm sorry you're going through the same thing!! "In three words I can sum up everything I learned about life: It Goes On" |
