Vagrant Heart You treat my heartlike a vagrant, it has no residency in your life, why did you rescind our beginnings so abruptly. Yes, perhaps I was not so posh, but I was trying to gratify your wishes only to be left standing alone. Now, I stand on a street corner waiting, with visions of you passing by, then you pass ~ giving me a glancing gaze, loathly, with your expression, as you passed. Yes, I know you told me many times that I could be your diamond in the rough and you would polish me to a glitter. But, you doubted that I could ever shine, after all my years of whiskey, cigarettes and wild woman. But I pleaded and promised that my past was history and perhaps a mystery and that all I ever wanted was love in my heart. And now, I realize that I had looked at all the wrong faces and in the wrong places and did all the wrong things. Yes, I know I told you that I had built a all across my heart to protect it from all the wrong ones that crossed my paths and who had broken it many times. Then, you briefly entered my empty life and jackhammered the wall down, and showedme what love truly was And now, you have given up and left me and my heart standing like a vagrant. gMt |

I know how this is. Before Liam I was hurt by 3 different guys. But Liam broke down the barriers. This is sad though and I hope Liam doesn't up and leave me. That is why you pray a lot. Cold hands means a warm heart [This message has been edited by the_loner_23 (05-28-2003 04:58 PM).] |

You've written well! Somehow, though, I believe your heart is just tender to the pain of others. I believe you wrote this in a comforting manner. I appreciate your writings! Blessings! Shirl Till oceans cease to flow and deserts lose their sands, may beauty surround you every day and wealth be in your hands. |

Been there, my friend. Well written and stated. I think it's part of what's called "growing pains", but the way I look(ed) at it....MAKE ME A DWARF! Alas, you move on instead and always love them in memory. Also, if the afore-mentioned hadn't happened, wouldn't have what I now have...trade-offs, you know? And I know I got the better deal! enjoyed jwesley |

Heartfelt sentiments in tears on the page... The promise of love should never leave vagrant what is such an honest and generous blossom. Nicely done. TD |
