The Beginning Of The End Lord knows she needs her own set of wings A simple distraction from the earth to eternal bliss The chance to take the dear heavens by the hand Where only melodies in the form of grace exists... And, so be that pain she holds to a story never told She never left a trace of her rain for anyone to find But, there in the distance you'd notice her struggling to listen That heaven only comes when the rain is put behind... So, she gathered what remained of her so broken self Allowed herself to feel it raining once again It had always poured and not once were the waters ever light But, she found herself somewhere in the beginning of the end... There in the heart of a stranger she found a little light never seen For forever it had always seemed to pass her by But, he showed her the sun and the warmth in it all For, she never asked for much just to watch it rise... It was her beginning of the end and she seldom owned hate Maybe she was no longer descended from the rains she had lived Then life changed just as quickly as the seasons do Her already paved miles were no longer enough to hold onto with... Though the distance she'd managed were all related to the storms This new kind of water destroyed any sun left inside For, she thought there were at least one part of herself remained untouched To find it's no wonder she's allowing herself now to slowly die... To what a picture in the mind can do to even the brighter souls She can't turn back no matter how hard the sun tries to peak through Just when she thought she could face any rain that was to blame The beginning of her end was the end to her beginning, too... *Sauni* @~~>~~> Sauni @~~~>~~ |

  (sigh) Soooooo sad but beautiful, sweet friend, I pray with all my heart that she may spread her wings and weather the rainstorms and open heavens hope to her heart, for she can make the end her new beginning of hope and joy if she believes in herself and the Lord. (kiss on cheek) Sooooooo beautifully expressed, sweet friend, we all love you so much! God Bless You! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Saunni, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Sauni, I'm sending some rainbow dancing lights your way tonight, to brighten your path. Keep the sun on your face, and your eyes on the skies, that are still full of doves and eagles and the tiniest sparrows. And give yourself a big hug from me.   May the ripple of LOVE |
