Little betrayals like little nails hammered into my heart. Small lies as love dies in the quiet before the dawn. It isnt always an earthquake that sends cracks through loves foundation. Sometimes its just one too many late nights left alone in the dark. Sometimes its as simple as a word left unsaid a touch not given. Little betrayals like little nails Like little nails. |

As always Paula, one cannot help but feel your words, well done! Take care. Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets. ~Arthur Miller |

Hello my twin... Yes, you said so much here, and all too true. It's the little 'left undone' things that nail the wall up between two people. The forgotten hugs, little kisses for no reason, and the simple things that don't cost a penny, but add so much to our lives. Paula, it's so very good to be able to read your work again...I missed you... Open the door and let your adventure begin!!! |
