It was like the new day dawning in a sad recognize I saw past the image past the beautiful disguise The fog gently lifted I was given clear view and I could no longer see the same when looking at you It was only about friendship to keep lonely at bay I never expected you in any other way Damn you for not understanding it was so unconditional I never asked for anything nothing additional….. And still you keep yourself elusive …..always just out of reach all the while etching your footsteps forever on my beach…… ~SEA~ |

The fog gently lifted I was given clear view and I could no longer see the same when looking at you Isn't it funny how our vision gets foggy when we don't want to see certain things in our friends.... A beautiful and sensitive poem, Sue... ~hugs from a friend~ copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

My walk is selfish but my walk is true upon the sands I left with you I will not try to explain the complexities of sun and rain Nothing is unconditional |

(big hugggssssssss) This is soooooo beautifully sad, sweet friend, it too always saddens me to see the way we look at people change and how it makes us feel vague! (kiss on cheek) This is very wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Susan, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Friends can do that, can't they, Susan. Yes, there's always so much unexpected in a friendship. You've spoken about this well, my friend. (((hugs))) me |

Susan, this is hauntingly beautiful. I loved the write and hurt with you while reading. I can say no more at this point. Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
