For You

I felt helpless today
felt the pain, the anguish and the torment
you whispered to me your hopelessness
and I was unable to help
I tried to reach out for you
tried to hold on, but then all too quickly you were gone
Today I felt alone, your words still ringing in my ears
I cannot offer you anything but compassion and my shoulder
your tears will flow sooner or later and when they do
I will be here; I will always be here
for you

I felt helpless today
felt the pain, the anguish and the torment
But that is nothing compared to what you are going through
just know I'm here, know that I love you, know that I will understand
I will be here; I will always be here
for you

for Rose-Lyn, the hard times will become less~


Love is the life of the soul...
It is the harmony of the universe

Tracy darling girl, this is utterly divine, as always your writing far surpasses the mere brilliant and is superb. You know I love this, that is a given of course.

The lines are truly exquisite and YOU know I utterly utterly love it. Why is it do you suppose that your writing far surpasses the mere ordinary and soars into wonderment? Well, whatever the reason I utterly utterly love it

You have so much compassion in your soul, this is wonderful


Love and warm stuff

tracie66 - it is always good to know that someone is there for you...and that you can be there for them as well. Enjoyed. Chris

tracie~

this is so lovely, a golden promise
from your heart...what more could one
ask for? perfectly penned, and it made
me smile...though i know it was written
out of sadness. please take care.

This is wonderful, and a true gift of friendship...just keep reminding them that you are here, when they are ready, and they will come soon, and leave, the better for having you in their life...
