FORLORN My dreams are vanishing into the mist no longer take me to a magic land leaving behind thoughts of being kissed all pouring downward like the hourglass sand No longer to feel beauty in a sunset blind to brilliance of the color shown feeling the burden of untold dept of barren past that makes my soul groan Lonely spirit cries out for comfort only to feel emptiness inside begging that my time here be made short from the unending life tests I've tried No longer do I have the desire to get up from my many failures a darkness within put out the fire from this illness without an easy cure My arms stay open the truth revealed that love will never fill my embrace while the pains of the past stay unhealed and my tears flow freely down my face Karen Torbiak 2001© Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

This is about as sad as sad can get, Karen. You've expressed much loneliness and pain. Well written, but very sad. I'm sending extra hugs to you today. |

Such sadness and loneliness emits from each line, Karen. A wise person once taught me an important lesson on failure recently. She said that the difference between success and failure is that a person who succeeds tries again, the person who fails gives up for fear of failing. Hope in some way this helps! (((hugs))) All writing comes |

Karen...we let ourselve fall sometimes...and with courage...we again stand...with the feeling that we have won, once more, once again. If we fall and never stand, we wonder if we could, and too often we just lie there even more afraid to stand....for then our fear and doubts have won.... It is only the first inning....the game is far from over...Rise my Star and shine again. for the nighttime sky is clear and awaits your return. |
