You said that you loved me, You said that there was no one else, Now I find that you have lied to me If only to protect me from myself. This is my heart, Do you see it? This is it here in my hand It's been bruised and battered and torn apart But yet, I gave it to you In the hope of a new start. And what did you do? Professed your love for me and my heart Said that you couldn't live without us But yet. . . but yet. . . The dance is over, and now he's come back To take his place as your partner But I took you away, I sailed with you on The dance floor, Swept you away on a wind of music and melody Yes, my love, I took you to places that you had never seen And will never see again As he dances with you off into the sunset Remember me and never forget Never forget that our steps were in time and that ours was indeed A dance of love. . . ------------------ That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl [This message has been edited by Isis (edited 11-26-1999).] |

"Swept you away on a wind of music and melody." That's one of the rotten things about love....when you soar like this..... To but finally stand alone and say : "You Said." What a good description of this Dance. Welcome Sven Jenny ------------------ Love is an attempt at penetrating another being,But it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual.

Do you feel like you have known someone from the past?. Sven was my old user name, I don't know why, but I just thought of that name while I was logging on to a website. By the way, I loved your poem so much, it was as if the memories I had with my ex came back to life, though it's really painful and all you know. |

Jaguar, being the being that I am. . . I feel that I know everyone and no one. . . perhaps my posting brought you back to your memories to say that it's finally time to let them go. . . to find a new partner and dance yet again.

Thank you very much Starborads. . . I think that you will find that I reveal much, yet little about myself in my writings. . . Sven ------------------ That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |
