Once was sad with this
chronic pain burden of
mine. once was confused
of what I could find.

No one could understand
what ive been through
no matter how much they
try to comfort me. they
really never knew....

Then you came along into
my life like a unexpected
shooting star. the one
that knows me before we
meet from what we both
been through far and far.

The comfort only you
can give me as well
as for me to give you
just the same.

No one in the world can
be like you,no matter how
much I go out there and
play the game.

Your true thoughts
your warmth your
compassion is
something that I
never knew could exsist...

Fool me once shame on you.....Fool me twice shame on me.....

Its so wonderful,we both have been through the same ordeals. We both have a chronic condition called Corhns diease and he also had an ostomy at one point and so did I. It's so nice we can read each other thoughts and tell when each other feels bad.

Hi Julie!
This is a wonderful compassionate piece..
I also wanted to let you know I also suffer from Crohn's disease and also Colitis.  It's certainly not fun and it's great when you find someone to share your thoughts and feelings about this chronic condition with.
You and I are not alone with Crohn's here at Passions either.
Please feel free to email me at any time.

Sincere heart hugs, Nancy.

~Somewhere in my heart I'm always
Dancing with you in the summer rain~

Thank Heavens no Crohns for me, but u. colitis is nasty in its own right, though I've come to terms with its temper.  Weird to find others here.  Congrats on the friend and suport.  It helps to have someone who understands.  Best to you.
