Already Buried It's as if I am the alcoholic being addicted to you, addicted to my life that I don't want to give up. There you sit. Here I sit. I'm in pain, how about you? Pain and fear and guilt and fear, my heart pounding, knowing the end is nearer every day. What's a tear between friends, one eye, then the other, trying to remove you from my life. Yes, I am already buried in the memories of you. Watching "28 Days" wondering if there is a place we can go, those of us who need love, those of us who have love to give, when all is taken away from us but what we hold inside. There you sit. Here I sit. Pain, and fear and guilt and fear... are burying me today. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."

Maureen, the memories are sometimes so painful sometimes....even the good ones when the person they are made with is no longer around. Loneliness and thoughts of what might have been can torment the mind. Heart Hugs to you friend, Ethel |

Pain...we all feel it, we all live varying degrees of it, yet only you can pen it so well. *s When you think you have heard it all, |
