Oh the wind will carry my name to you. And you shall not forget it. The sky holds the earth, never bound. Amazing how darkness makes footprints on the dirt road along the side of the ditch that grows as weeping willows.. we'll never know why they cry. Let's remember who we've been all along, deep down we knew that pulling the plug was the best thing we could do.. let's not forget that we are good enough for ourselves.. The sky needs no one, though it's held the earth.. it could always just let go.. So why can't we? |

You? are the best y know that? This gave me goosebumps, all the way through. Let's remember who we've been all along, deep down we knew that pulling the plug was the best thing we could do.. let's not forget that we are good enough for ourselves.. This so perfectly captures, all that makes sense, and all that doesn't. It was the only way it could have gone, but why we can't let it go? perhaps because we saw another way it could have been. but maybe i'm just a stoopid dreamer. and thats just it. i knew who i was, and he? is trying to be someone he never will be. there are so many beautiful lines in this..it'll be printed and on my wall. hugs to you Meg, thanks for understanding so completely. always. I'll finish rambling now. :0 Instant karma's gonna get you. |

This one is good... “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |

Beautiful .... the various roads of any circumstance can be winding and difficult but you map loving hearts well! Wish you both a safe journey, and God speed! |
