Searching Beyond my reach the breath of today surrounded by walls and locked away hides tomorrow cringing in a corner lost and alone a grieving mourner "Take me away, I don't want to live ... I don't want to cry, I have nothing more to give." Yesterdays pain as bad as it seems makes it impossible to face tomorrow's dreams But I am still here with darkness lurking to begin a new day of blindly searching for buried emotions and lost horizons Beyond my reach I grasp for reasons Take me as I am whatever that may be Love, Life, and Happiness what can you give me? My emptiness, my questions, my sorrow expect to be answered by the breath of tomorrow |

My emptiness, my questions, my sorrow expect to be answered by the breath of tomorrow Unanswered questions often leave such an emptiness behind.........Your words have moved me, I relate all to well. This is......wonderful writing. On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. |

Another keeper. You have great style. The words seem to flow as easily as warm honey. "As I am"...that's the way love should be, the purest form of LOVE....unconditional acceptance. |

I understand this well, Craig. I like the power at the end, go ahead and demand what you need, maybe that's the way to go! Sandra |
