~ By Sue ~ You had my never ending love Then you just threw it all away I could not have loved you more I loved you every single day You said you wanted to be loved The love I had was all for you I gave you all I had inside of me There was nothing else I could do To no one else will it belong Because it was all just for you I still remember all you said When our love was still brand new I put the shield back up again Around this heart of mine Never again will I let it down To be hurt another time 10-3-02 |

(big hugggssssss) Oh Sue, this is so sadly heartfelt, sweet friend, my heart goes out to you, yes, always proect your heart and follow your instincts but if you truly feel a spark from a love that is faithful and sincere, then may it be! (sigh) My heart goes out to you, sweet friend, you truly are a warrior woman who is bound to find great joy, 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 "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Oh Sue!! I'm so sorry that you have been hurt. Please just remember... that shield around your heart may protect you, but it can hurt you as well. "Loving might be a mistake, but it's worth making" (From song: I Hope You Dance) Luck to you. Tammy |

Hi Sue ~~ A shield can be such an important thing to guard and protect from hurt and pain. My friend, I hope one day, you will be able to take it down and let your heart flow free again. How are you doing? Hugs, Marti Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. |

Hi, Sue! You certainly can write this heart-breaking poetry very well!---I just wish you hadn't had to do so much personal research! Sounds like you've been to hades and back---but slowly, but surely your heart is on the mend. You say you'll never take that shield down from around your heart, but never is a very long time. I think that the day will come when you will quite willing open up your loving heart again---it just needs a little more time right now. Take care sweet Sue! EA |
