Useless It's strange the way a life begins, my nephew born of love. Then time grows old as pages turn needing prayers, this sister of. Dependent, yes she's now become, but son must go elsewhere. Perhaps to save a war torn lad, while she lays dying here. His orders came to be prepared called up, he may soon fly. Along with him, her hope to live. A tear, rolls down, I cry. For I am useless to her needs, my ills prevent the share. A sister waiting, nephew too, for "choice" results to bear. [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (01-21-2002 09:06 AM).] |

I asked if I could help and because I have an auto immune illness, she said I wouldn't be accepted. shoot normally I would try to fix my name/cross over..but I am in no mood to *s M [This message has been edited by Lady Ollyne (01-21-2002 09:46 AM).] |

Floria, Rex, ~V and Noah..thank you for your kind words...I was going to call this Life or Death...strange funny, how to save others lives, my sister may have to die...but she does seem resigned to the fact..it is I that won't ever be. Oh and Noah..it is my sister and her son, not mine...thank you for your comforting words. M |
