Melody of my heart, song of my life
You wonder if it's worth it, all of this strife
Is it really worth the pain that you endure?
Is it really worth it?  I know why you're not so sure.

To find the light, you must rage against the dark
The darkness that has engulfed you and left its mark
You feel alone, you wonder if anyone cares
One has come forward, one has taken the dare.

Though I cannot be with you, my spirit fills your heart
It's always been there,and has been from the start
And when the strife is over, and you have passed the test
I'll be here at the end, arms wide open, to give you rest.

This is beautiful Sven...I'm gonna show it to a friend of mine that is having a very tough time right now. I think it'll speak to her as it has to me.   Well done.

My fingers are crossed Sven  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

Sven,
this is so BEAUTIFUL and sweet...so romantic...Isis..I'll cross a few things too  jm

 When you see through love's illusions, there lies the danger...
And your perfect lover just looks like a perfect fool
So you go running off in search of a perfect stranger
While the loneliness seems to spring from your life
Like a fountain from a pool.

Jackson Browne
