Battered and bruised
Searching for clues
Wondering why
She did'nt just die

First it was her dad
Then her husband turned bad
A life full of misery and scars
So she makes this wish upon the stars

Stars up high
To you I cry
For protection
and direction

Take me away
I'm too tired to stay
Please hear my cry
I'm ready to die

=========================

this is very sad and touches me deeply...
I have loved many who are too tired to want to carry the past with them...
Heal in your own light...and on those stars... wish for strength and direction to get back to you.
take care..keep writing...it helps.

I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep.
I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you.
You'll always be the one.
You were the first, you'll be the last.

If only she could convince herself that she can move beyond this, if she truly tried (not at ALL easy, I know, but with desire comes decision, and with decision comes action. From there who really knows...?). Enjoyed re-reading this and understanding the feeling in it a little closer to heart.
