The Reckoning On this...today...the skies awake with tears of heaven beating down upon a broken, thirsty ground where past illusions come to rest perverted by the merciless a lightning strike a stricken heart a final blow for all who show the scars of accusation's claws that bare the flaws of no confess in halo of self-righteousness injustice condemnation swift without the gift of shadowed doubt and falsities are spouted loudly from the mouths of those who would believe they know yet truly do not know at all and so they fall these tears of mourn on this the morn of judgment day the truth be learned the victory earned by those who true of heart have stayed and suffered sting of perfidy at calloused hands of those once known as 'friend' ~vlraynes "My friends are my estate." |

This, although angry in tone, is the voice of pain. You rival thor for the light of sky in the storm vicky. Here's a towel. I do believe you just danced naked between the bolts. thank you |

Powerful writing, dear Vicky! I reckon those who betray their friends are building up huge karmic debts! Hugs, your friend forever! Linda |

Wow...It's as if you are writing about my experience in the past. I only know this. It has made me far more watchful of what people *claim* to be toward me. It's not that I want to be, but once burned seems you always are on guard to a certain extent. Thanks for sharing this. It helps to know someone out there [understands] what it's like. Thanks again for sharing. I know how much this hurts. SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |

Oo-ie. Or I could just echo everybody else, but that's boring. You know what I mean. Oo-ie. Kielo I'll never know the cost, but all of Him is more than enough for all of me.... |
