Please understand my funny friend I know that you are feeling down You feel your world is at an end And you can only wear a frown You feel the world has been unfair And perhaps, it has to you But you survive and that's rare You rise up to begin anew You cry alone but in a crowd You wear the face that smiles a lot Your laugh too coarse, your voice too loud You hide inside like one forgot No punishment that they could mete Would ever be enough for you You show the world you're pure and sweet And seal away the heart in blue You think that you are victim there No one cares or understands Your bitter heart is in despair All you can do is make demands And yet there's hope for while you live Your dreams can find a path for you My funny friend you give and give And I return the gift of you Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

Keth beloved singer of my hearts song and sister to my soul, always your writing flows over my soul like honeyed wine. Never do you fail to enchant and bewitch me with your wondrous words. Do I love this you knew I would? YOUR writing is always enough to warm and grace the soul of whoever reads it, and you know I always do. Always your words wrap a soul in light and warmth, and in this case you’ve written a beautiful hug. You know of course I love it utterly utterly, and you too. Superb writing, exquisite language usage and the flow is absolutely perfect As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

(big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, I too feel this can be for anyone in particular, and that is why I always love your wonderful words so much, because they say so much so many can relate to! (kiss on cheek) I too have prayers going out to the one who this is for most of all, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kethry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
