Missing You Today becomes yesterday as words still echo in my mind Another day of hoping happiness… wanting to find Angry words spoken by you words that have shattered my heart My mind echo’s your words loudly praying today they depart A life of heartache and pain how long will this silence last Accused…no time to explain only memories from the past So close you and I once were now we never speak at all Nothing left but loneliness no more talks…you never call Albums of memories closed visions forever remain I thank God each day for you as I ask him to ease our pain No one was to blame it seems words spoken in anger then Relationship torn apart your words echo in mind again Will we share special times again like we shared from days gone by Will our hearts smile once again or forever ask God “Why” [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (10-11-2002 11:22 PM).] |

"Will we share special times again like we shared from days gone by Will our hearts smile once again or forever ask God “Why” (big hugggsssssss) Oh Paul, this deeply touched my heart reading it, I hope this doesn't relate to your current feelings as I am sure with a golden heart like yours so many fruitful memories of love will fill you eternally! (sigh) This is sensitively heartfelt, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Paul, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon nyou! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Paul...I was really touched by this poem. Maybe, it's because my life has been touched by such pain in the recent past. This poem was beautifully written and beautiful in its expression of love still lingering. ***Ivy Rose |

Paul, my heart goes out to you. This was so sad to me. It made me think of how I would feel if my Gary and I had such a disagreement as this. I hope that things will soon work out for you and your loved one. Thanks for sharing your heart. Love To All, Ethel...garysgirl |

Paul, I can feel your pain in my own way. I have a friend that is an ex, that I have tried to contact, but he has not responded to ICQ's or e mails in several months. I am trying to figure out why the friendship seems to have disappeared all of a sudden. Thanks for sharing your heart. I hope and pray things work out for you. Dawn |

Dawn~Thank you for caring. Try as we might we just have to wait for things to calm down for a little while and hope that everything will be okay. I tried the e mail thing also but no reply. Best wishes to you & hope things turn out good for you...Paul [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (10-16-2002 12:34 AM).] |

Paul, Don't know if the little girl is your daughter. But I do know that I went through that with mine. Turned out to be a big bump in the road. Peace and courage to you. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Paul Love takes some bumpy roads sometimes...and anger can fly like the wind...tear, and then be gone. This hurts to read as I understand this painful feeling...and wish you peace and love in the future. |

Paul, as I read this over again on the back pages, I decided to reply again. I found in your response to Larry's reply that you were speaking of your daughter in the poem. It really reached home then, because I'm going through the same thing with my only child. Because of circumstances I won't go into right now, we haven't seen each other for many years. She left home before she was twenty years old and got married not long afterwards. I recently found her through the internet and we have spoken on the phone and through the internet. We live thousands of miles apart and neither of us can afford to travel the distance to see each other face to face. She says that she wants us to have a Mother-daughter relationship like before, but hardly ever returns e-mails or phone calls. I am trying very hard, just as you are, to keep the hope and faith that God will work out all these things that came between me and her. The events that took place had nothing to do with my daughter and myself. Other persons were the ones who caused all the misunderstandings between me and her. Paul, I didn't mean to say all this, but I just wanted you to know that I understand a little of what you're feeling. I wrote a poem last week about me and my daughter, but I haven't gotten the nerve to post it yet. The holidays are really hard, aren't they? "Love makes the world go around" |

Ethel~ Thank you so much for the lovely reply. I hope everything works out between you & your daughter. Holidays will be real hard to deal with this year, but hopefully they will get better. If you think it will help I encourage you to either post or send the poem you wrote about your daughter to her, words shared can mean so much when relationships are strained. Again Thank You for the lovely caring reply...Paul |

Suetang~ Your sweet reply touches my heart. Thank you for caring. I will be fine Sue. As my motto goes " To share my poems is to share my heart" I only wish that I could share them both with my daughter...Paul [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (11-26-2002 07:19 PM).] |
