Seeking Hope When I look in your eyes I can see The man that you were meant to be But also I see the shadow of pain Which washes your soul in silent rain And although I long to hold your hand And tell you that I understand I feel that you’ll never be free Of the sorrow that coats you in misery When I look within I can see a light It shines there in your soul so bright But sorrow clouds your heart with fear And makes your days seem dark and drear Even though I want to help you see The light that glows eternally I can’t believe you’ll ever let go Of the fear that you have come to know When I look at you I see love divine It’s there within you all the time But you’ve shut your eyes and cannot see Its light and hope shine constantly So although I want to help you cope You can’t acknowledge there’s still hope Because a heart that lives in fear Will never be able to hold hope near Happiness lives within its there for you And if you seek it out you’ll find its true Marsha Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds |

Time are sides of two, Ying/Yang Hope/Despair , you hold hope to give As time turns it good he have you hold hope for him |

But sorrow clouds your heart with fear And makes your days seem dark and drear We're both aware I'm not a he But these lines could have been for me. *S* Beautiful work as always, my friend... it's good to see you posting! |

WOW!!! Words that were taken right from my very thoughts. Been reading my mail? hehe It's nice to see my thoughts written in front of me. I can't ever seem to get them out this way. Thank you for sharing. I know someone just like this, but I don't think he will ever see. It's so sad to see someone suffer like that, and feel helpless to make them see the light. And what makes it worse is (he) is such a delight of a person himself when he's not so deep into the sorrow and sadness. One of 2 saddest things I have ever exp'd in my life to see these delightful people this way. SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer!
