My Well Worn Shoe It’s the same old story Fits like a well worn shoe Caught deep within the pain Beyond caring, just loving you There’s little thought Of right and wrong When a mind is transfixed By loves sweet song You know I hear your call For just one true friend But I’m not the sapling Hearts break, not bend And so I give my life To try and be true But this love won’t die There’s just no one but you! Yes I know I shouldn’t Yet still I have my say And wonder of the cost That I’ll come to pay If it be my fate Then let me be blue But please don’t doubt This love I hold, only for you We live an' learn from our mistakes |

You know I hear your call For just one true friend But I’m not the sapling Hearts break, not bend Loved the sweet sound of this.... but it still hurts a little~ Nicely done EagleOne~ |

I believe Eddie, that if it is a true love, that once loved, always loved and despite what is cliche', time doesn't heal..it never lessens the pain nor lessens the love for another, it just allows you to go on. hugss M |

VAS ~ sometimes there is just nothing to be said, thank you. Janette ~ the happiness I think may be a matter of my perspective. Angelblueyes ~ Thank you! Martie ~ it would certainly seem that way. Nancy ~ Always good to have you read me, thank you! Littlewing ~ endearment seems a fitting term here. Vandana ~ enjoyed being read, thank you! Nakedthoughts ~ much truth in your wise words, thank you! Dark Angel ~ I was having one of my many sad moments, thank you. Kaoru ~ indeed it is sometimes the way of love. We live an' learn from our mistakes |

hmm..this touches me very much right now...I've watched someone very dear to me going through the same thing; my brother...no one taught us how to love halfway...in loving we sometimes lose a lot...but love is worth the risk...and, well, sometimes we just have no say in what our hearts will do.... hugs, g "Now would you mind if I bared my soul / If I came right out and said you're beautiful..."
