Drained this life, mine has drained me of all strength unpacked my bags, bled my soul, milked my dreams mind now feeble, inadequate for the tasks before me you were right, always have been, and as I lay here anemic, faltering lacking the radiance of words I fade into the background, pallid, unsure the rumbling inside pounding heart within, warning of numbered days. ~Wynter "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul." (J.Garland) [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 12-04-2001).] |

Late to bed and early to rise ... or was that another way, another day,... in disguise. No rest for the weary ... now if you were the wicked, that would be a whole other story. |

I remember feeling slightly like this...when I was holding onto a woman...making her all my world...thinking I could not live without her...never wanting to let go...she was going on with her life...in fact in her mind she had "killed me off"...these are her words...and finally I was able to let go and find that even though it was not my choice to live without her I could in fact do it...and I hope I never find myself in that place again because it was a fight to get out of that self imposed prison...James |

Dear one...you could never fade, your heart and words will not let you. Feel the hope around you and believe the dream for you never know when love will come to embrace you in its warm arms. **hugs** My heart goes out to you. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

This one packs a punch, and hits right in the center of my heart !! I do hope that you can once again find your strengh, sometimes we just have to dig a little deeper than we thought in order to find it ! God Bless You Timothys Angel Dont let it end like this, tell them I said something. ~Pancho Villa |

W/M, Our days are numbered from 1 and some are printed in blue others (we wish there were none) are of an inadequate hue But our days are all of color in reflections of the sun would not you be a culler of a day you've dearly won. K/e (hope your colors are brighter today) |
