Many pieces of my fractured self Lie like leaves upon the ground And though I place my dreams on the shelf My hopes still keep hanging around It feels too real to realize That life has passed before my eyes The stifling, remorseless grip of life And the timeless mental test Only the sky which has no height Or what used to be my best It took a lifetime of resistance to see My best, again, will never be |

it does seem like whe you fall apart once there is no going back...and there isn't but moving forward seems to make us into even better people for we grow through our experiences! well written! your words spoke directly to me and took me back to the shadows of my past...the future is a much better place! 'The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.' ~Eleanor Roosevelt |
