~ By Sue ~ You were the love of my life When I became your wife There was so much I felt inside Emotions I could never hide Of myself, I freely gave to you For a while you did that too Then all of a sudden you changed It was my life you had arranged A love I thought would always last Now it is only in the past Your words it seemed were never true How could you do what you did do Dreams of yesterday are all gone But still, I stand up strong With memories of yesterday Of a love that you threw away 2-15-03 |

I think we should not grow our children to believe in the Barbie world where everything is beautiful and perfect and Ken will always be there. |

Sue, you wrote this so beautifully, even though it is sad. I'm loving your font style, too... "Love makes the world go around" |

"A love I thought would always last Now it is only in the past Your words it seemed were never true How could you do what you did do" Its too bad that so many things turn out this way. Wonderful write! A dream is but a dream, you can wake up. Reality is ultimate, and those who share it with us are far more important than anything we could remember, |

Sometimes the memories soften, dear friend, and leave us with determination to make our tomorrows better still...this is poignant, but tender... Accept these small gifts from my gypsy soul, and let the magik happen! ~~S~~ |
