These shoulders aren't forever broad, They can only take so much, Seems to me I've had about all I can take, Now I only want a loving touch. I've been burdened lately, Carrying a few friends troubled hearts, But eventually it has to take it's toll, On this kind and loving heart. Burdens from family and burdens from friends, I'm always giving to someone else, When I get money, I spend it on my son, For he deserves all I can give. I feel useless, can't help, Not seeming to make a difference these days, Seems every step I take, Leads me deeper into the haze. I'm sick of being limited, in what I try to do, People thinking the worst of me, I doubt things will ever change, This is my eternal reality. So don't open my Pandora's box, You may not like what hides inside, Feelings too foul to share, Feelings I must smother and hide. I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn..... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Dearest Isis, This poetry you write seems to slap me in the face and grabs my attention. No offense meant there either. You give and give and give all you have until you feel like you're about to break...considering others' needs before your own. Such a wonderful heart you have. I hope your friends realize what they have in a friend like you "wipes a tear from eye". ^_^ LadySofia "To the innocent and ancient ones, the sparks which light our fires." Amanda Piatt |

My sister: I wish I be closer To stand right by your side For though my heart is troubled Your strength has been a guide I've told you of my troubles I've listened to to yours But sending hugs across the world Falls under the impossible chores My thoughts are with you always Even though I'm not about But my dearest, dearest sister All you have to do is give a shout Lisa I know I have been consumed by my own troubles lately and I have to admit they are not getting any better but I am always here for you. Though this darkness has over come me you my sweetest friend, are very important to me. Remember e-mail goes both ways. *S* P.S. I still have not received the test results back yet or I would have e-mailed with them. *sigh* When you are old and grey and full of sleep, And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shodows deep; How many loved your moments of glad grace, And loved your beauty with love false or true, But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you, And loved the sorrows of your changing face... William Butler Yeats |

Isis, my friend. . . I know that your heart is very open and giving. . . but you must take time for yourself too, to help others, you must first help yourself. . . Let us help you. . . we can be there for you in ways that you cannot begin to imagine. . . the power of friendship can reach across oceans and make lives better. . . This was an excellent, heartfelt poem. . . ----------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

Such Emotion Isis, that only you can command. Perhaps it is true..greatness oftens leaves people feeling lonly and useless. But you are not, your heart and soul shine with such light...you are never alone...the candle in the dark |

When the night winds blow, and you feel all alone, and love has lost within your heart and all you've sown. Think of me, for I'm there in spirit if not in body, like my guide Isis has shown. As the night air turns cold, Please don't think of me bold I'd warm your important parts fluff up your spirit, and kissing your heart. Finding my way to your soul within holding it tight against the night winds. All my love Joel. I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel. |
