Been one of those days Awhile too long. Been all dull and gray And I can’t sing my song. I’m dancin’ off beat And I keep falling down; Trippin’ over my feet With a mask like a clown. Swallowed by sorrow, Alive in His grace. Are there ever tomorrows? I’m stuck in this place. A clown’s happy smile Kept hidden and still. Hands tight in the trial Show joy and good will. Still dancing, and trying, Fighting real hard. But these days are like dying I’m bleeding and scarred. - And so it was that time stood still - (blink, breathe, stand, fight) [This message has been edited by GG (02-23-2003 06:01 AM).] |

Abbe, I think I will keep dancing, and fighting, thanks glad you replied. Eric, I'm not so sure my words are the ones needed to guide you, but I think your right we're all there at times. Thanks for replying Pat, yea its just a matter of recognising ourselves being in His Grace.. 'cause we always are.glad you liked it and the rhyming thanks. Hugs. Denise, great and fabulous? wow! thank you very much. Noah, yes, He always replies with love.. though He tends to do it by allowing some hard things so I realise how easy the last one was But things always work for the good. Thanks for the reply! Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - (blink, breathe, stand, fight) [This message has been edited by GG (02-24-2003 12:30 AM).] |

Wow... I do also know this place; I have been there far too many times... but had I not, your words would have helped me to feel such powerful emotions- and learn from you and your wisdom of feeling. It is important to touch upon depth such as this... and you do so beautifully. Love, Moca |
