On A Journey To The Unknown

I Filled My Life

I wake up in the mornings
Just hating to get out of bed
Remembering the night before
And everything that was said

To have given all of your love
Not to even be loved back
Leaves you feeling worthless
Making your world seem all black

I try to focus on the happy things
That bring me so much joy
Like the animals I love so much
As I watch them play with their toys

Their love is given with no conditons
Cute little things they tend to do
A little demanding for attention
They never make you feel blue

Trying to fill the emptiness here
I filled my life with something else
To take the place of what I have lost
And the pain I have been dealt

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Sue, this is soooooo touching, sweet friend, yes, always think of the things that make you smile; children, laughter, animals, God, all the special things of life, for while there is pain there will always be space for joy! (sigh) My thoughts are with you, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Filling your life with other things makes it so much easier to forget what you once filled it with. Well done, Sue.

never knowing what you'll find
still I want you all the time
yeah I do
'cause you get me
