I look into the gloom of night, my heart is heavy, just not right I wish to take this pain from me, this time of year that I see. My life is filled with turbulence, of strife and of happenstance. I look to find a way to win, to recover in the now, not then. This year is hard to work through, what is a woman to do? The bills unpaid lay at my feet, is this to be my Santa’s treat? This world is sometimes so cruel, seems is me the lone fool. I stumble and I fall once again, I need some help and a plan. I cannot make it all work out, I seem to only scream and shout. The children are my only life, to feed and cloth,keep from strife. Their eyes I see beyond my tears, I guard from them all my fears. This year so hard and tough on me, I love them so, so tenderly. I know that all will come to be what is to come, and is to see. I must go on, be less afraid, for in my heart courage has stayed.. Another year will grace my eyes, the dawn of ray in clear skies. I will endure, this will not last, a new year born, a Christmas past. [This message has been edited by Magnus (12-22-2002 10:34 AM).] |

You write the strength of a woman well, Barry. Perhaps in another life, you were one. The man in you certainly is empathetic. ![]() |

![]() (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, I too can sympathize with how hard it can be to be a woman for I believe everyone is equal and women should always feel loved and special as they do so much for our children and for the better of society and should be loved and celebrated! (sigh) You have a true compassionate heart, sweet friend, Happy Holidays to you and everyone, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
