To Whom It May Concern:

You know who you are
no passing the buck now
Yeah, mister, you're the one
you're gonna listen and that's a fact

I've sat and watched your life
walked along and tried to help
I have listened and given advice
given all I have, but to no avail

I've tried caring and being gentle
it does no good, you just ignore
I've tried to be harsh and stern
but then you say I'm just a b*tch

So live your life without a care
I'm not your mother nor your wife
There's nothing there for me to gain
The decision is up to you, my friend

Good luck flying out on your own
I hope you know what you're gonna do
Perhaps you'll live and learn a lot
and turn out to be a better man

Failure isn't failure if a lesson from it is learned ~ KS

Kristie Sue,
it sounds as if you are going through a difficult time...hang in there it gets better.

Its so hard to watch people ruin their lives and not be able to do anything about it. You expressed yourself well here

Always, Alyssa

Shara and GG~

Thank you!  You're right...it's difficult sometimes to watch people make the wrong (or "easy") decisions.

It is awful isn't it, seeing someone you care for, make such mistakes, that you KNOW no good can come out of. Its so sad, but like you say, if they don't wanna listen you have to let go.

Hugs, sweet gal, know how you feel, all we can do is let them live it their way.

Instant karma's gonna get you.

hence my signature...I've been there.  Just try to keep other people from falling needlessly...but sometimes people have to make their own mistakes... :-)

thanks
