A time of troubles An era of despair Bad times are coming You had better beware Life flows on Everyday all day But it’s almost gone You had better pray A love that is pure A love that is just In Life we lure This love is lust Now as I lay here On my bed of death My senses sharpened I die like the rest. |

Facing our own mortality has a way of sharpening our focus. Wise words. Welcome to Passions, Whispered Name! Please check your e-mail for a special Passions' welcome! |

Yea there are bad times coming, and quite right on earth most of the love here is lustful and unreal. But that true love exists and yes we do need to get on our knees and pray. denise is right that facing mortality makes a person think. Welcome to Passions, I look forward to seeing more of your writing and hope you stay awhile! Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |

  (big hugggsssssss) This is so very true, sweet friend, and I think ever so often we forget of our mortality and then when we realize that we feel in dire straits! This is a poignant debut, sweet friend, GodBless You, I love it! Welcome to Passions, sweet friend, may you be inspired by all of us here as we will all be inspired by your lovely words! I can't wait to read more of your lovely words, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Welcome! Chaos does seem to rule some days. It's good that you can focus on something else...lust and/or love can really change your POV, if only for a moment or two each hour. |
