                           Sometimes

you hurt me
deeper than my skin
and kept on
even when I let you win
did all I could
to polish your pride
I needed you
by my side

SOMETIMES

when you have it all
it isn’t nearly enough
weakness bleeds through
when things get tough
now no words
are left to say
you made the choices
you have your way

"I have already paid for all my future sins."  Sade...(King of Sorrow)

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Helen, I know just what you mean, but as long as you look happy to your heart, you will always be strong and you will grow rich in love and strength. (sigh) Very powerfully expressed, sweet words, you are a treasure to us all! (kiss on cheek) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

To be hurt like that can be the worst feeling in the world, you expressed this greatly, however, someone will step in and be there for you every momoent.

I know where you are coming from, to be hurt that deeply, I hope your heart heals eventually.

How simple happiness can be if we don't let
our anger be in control of us...We have to
say goodbye to it before we can ever truly
say hello.  A very emotion filled poem..
I enjoyed it for how you penned it...not for
what it said...for that is sad.
