Even there--is lack of me. Truly now I drink of Lethe-- and still cannot forget the death of smiles and conversation shared... I wake each day--he's still not there. oh dear God, I miss my friend. How dare the birds commence to sing? Tell me why the sun still shines and stars at night adorn the sky? cease this noise of silence screaming. |

I remember the day after a friend of mine died, walking outside to see the world still going on, not even a bump in the rhythym of the day...and I was honestly surprised. This write from you comes on what would have been her birthday. And I thank you for writing what I've never quite been able to get into words. |

Time will sing a song Celebration of his life Then memories live Scream silently, for this is the shroud of mourning, and it has no sound to anyone but you. In time it will turn it into a song that celebrates his life and you are able to hold dear all the memories that made a wonderful relationship what it was, for he will always be alive in you, and your children! Serenity I send my love and hope you will continue to write out the pain. (hugs) ~ Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance ~And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance ~ I hope you dance. (Lee Ann Womack) |

and still cannot forget the death of smiles and conversation shared Dear gentle Serenity,,very gentle smile, there was no death, because they are still with you, and will always be with you. And if you think..what would he have said?..I truely believe you will have the answer as if he told you, as I feel he will in your mind...hang in there through these tough times, and remember we are there for you |

When you scream we'll hear you When you fall we'll catch you When you're down we'll lift you When you're alone we'll comfort you When you write we'll read you we can not fill your emptyness But if we could we sure would A big warm HUG to you dear friend.

A powerful write me Sista, and just the way to help wring out the pain. Loved these.... "How dare the birds commence to sing?" and "Tell me that I'm only dreaming-- cease this noise of silence screaming." Hugs and Love Sweet Serenity Maree |

Sad and true. I have been down this path. Hugs to you. There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |

serenity- I love this part... "Blackened sun, malingering. How dare the birds commence to sing? Tell me why the sun still shines and stars at night adorn the sky? Tell me that I'm only dreaming-- cease this noise of silence screaming." Extremely powerful write. I hear your silent screams, my friend. Love and hugs to you, ~vicky "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (edited 07-27-2001).] |
