The night drips dark tears from ever darker eyes, feeding puddles on the floors with hurtful, silent cries. Remorse grows thick inside my heart, building in aching bounds; it burns all light from my mind, it leaves me with just one sound. Your voice echoes in memory, whispering from end to end; I ache in mind, in heart, in soul with the words, "Let's just be friends." |

Ah, so sad. But, even worse if you hear those words after being intimately envolved, and so much harder to deal with. Finding the one I think is right for me to discover I'm not right for him, hurts. You captured a real part of life. Enjoyed. Warm regards, Pat ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

Those dreaded words....such a killer when it's only one sided. Painful and powerful words you speak. Nicely captured though ~Salty In the Midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you. |
