Tomorrows Are Forever (Yesterday's Are In The Past) By Paul Wilson I've lived too many yesterdays waiting for my pain too end Today I'll live for the future and start my life over again I'm getting stronger everyday my goal in life is crystal clear I've got my tomorrows to live for and I don't need you here There were times I almost quit trying on the road to who I am I'm better off today because I have my tomorrows and I give a damn I saw you in the store the other day you still looked the same me You tempted me as I walked by like an old friend I use too see You made me stronger by breaking me down I now wear a smile on my face where there use to be a frown I may think of my yesterdays from time too time you see I'll live for my tomorrows and thank God I am finally free ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

quote: Dear Paul, this is so beautiful and SO WISE! To detach from a painful past is not easy, but NECESSARY. And no greater satisfaction than opening up and see the NEW blessings fill our hearts. Wonderful for Dixie and all! Love, Margherita |

Paul, you are an absolute gem ~ and a very sweet and compassionate one at that! Paul, your caring heart is showing! ~ and your talent. These words are sure to give a measure of comfort to our Darlin' Dixie. Every bit of love and understanding that is shown to her, will add to her strength. God bless you both! ![]() ![]() Linda |

"You made me stronger by breaking me down" Here in Hurricane country, you know, there is a stubborn tendency to rebuild, and the next time, dammit, we double brace our rooftops. Such a kind soul you are, you spoke to me, and many otheres, with this empathetic write. ![]() |
