Time To Cry


Please don't love me
can't you see?
The answers you seek
don't lay with me

I’ve seen into your heart
felt your pain and love
Found a passionate soul
reaching high above

A shoulder to cry on
some time to stay
To share a smile
then be on our way

I've no more to give
than a friend that's true
To ask for more
will only leave you blue

the time now has come
I must say goodbye
And all I can give you
is time you need to cry

It sounds as if someone was just wanting a bit more of the Eagle than a sheltering wing, and a wing is all you were offering. Can't blame them though, you do have a great big heart, ya know! And it's good to see your name flying around in here again!

Sometimes it is hard to keep friendship and love apart. That doesn't make sense really but I am sure you understand.
I like the write, Eddie. Glad you just have to do it.

Eddie darling boy this is such superb writing. Utterly utterly amazing writing it’s so full of beauty, sad in places, because it’s hard to put restrictions on what you feel, but very necessary to draw the line sometimes. You always are an excellent writer, I’ve missed you darling boy, don’t stay away so long please.

This is an absolutely beautiful and perfect example of all your posts, perfectly divine I love it. YOU really do have an amazing ability to write of emotion so the reader understands completely. Thank you for this gem

Eddie, all we can do is offer ourselves unconditionally in friendship, and if it turns into more then that is wonderful, and if it does not...then we have to be true to ourselves and still be that friend.....unconditionally.  Well done my friend, good to see you again.

Eddie,
such a soft and beautiful write. I think under your wings would be a perfect place to shelter from the storms of life and that you offer a time to cry as well...magic.
