Your number never answers- I merely hear your voice... With the standard message, And the standard choice... “I’m sorry I’m not home right now- But I’ll return your call”. I sadly leave my message- Then I let the hand set fall. I type and send the e-mails- But never get replies... I know that it is over... So why am I surprised? So let me say, “I love you- Now I’ll leave you alone”. I guess that we both knew our love- Was going, going, gone. |

(big hugggsssssss) Such sadness fills your words, sweet friend, I pray with all my heart that soo she will call you back and talk to you for hours and love will come jumping into your arms once more forever! (sigh) My heart goes out to you, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet John, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

I loved the brevity of the poem-it reinforced the message, and gave it power. Very well done. Nan |

welp, being on the other side, I let my voicemail get my calls. I can say I've let alot of them go. I know this hurts, but sooner or later you'll find someone who'll speak with you. Hopes and prayers, PS |
