When The Walls Close In |

For a friend,who is having some tough moments When the walls seem way too close and the day seems to never be night When you wonder what's right chose and your mind struggles in fight. When the times are getting tough and each moment seems too much Remember this, it’s not as rough and the tunnel’s light you’ll touch A friend is near to listen and speak and take the fear and hurt from in cause even though it seems so bleak I know you will, you’re gonna win. You are a person deserving to know that you will come through it OK And soon those feelings will let go and leave you seeing a happier day. You will....I know you will [This message has been edited by Magnus (04-28-2002 10:10 AM).] |

 (tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Barry, I think so many can relate to these words so well, I am someone who is currently going through some hard times and all I want is stillness of heart, something to equip me and use as a weapon to seek victory against my demons and find love and all my dreams come true! (big hugggssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, you are a true angel of words, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Yes, I needed it too. I guess many of us are feeling down, and this poem is a bright spot of hope. Sandra |

Now....this touches me... I wrote this to help someone....Knowing that person needed the encouragement... Never...never...did I imagine that what I did could help about a dozen people or so.. HUGS to all of you... Big ones.... And yes, there is a light at the end of all of our tunnels..... I had my time once, where I thought there never would be a light there again.... I was wrong... And I could not have done it without friends... Ones that cared and lent me a shoulder... But, I had to have courage and conviction to get to that light. And I had to try hard not to look back, only forward... BC....your welcome... All of you....your welcome!!!! and Thank You... |

If I were to think back in time to what I consider my darkest moment it would be a time when I gained two new friends that were there for me...I know the value of friends...James |
