A chance meeting, a perhaps, a maybe Afterall, that really is all it was about Now as I sit here writing this poem In my mind there is little doubt Some things are meant to be This however was not Perhaps it's better this way For my heart didn't get caught Yet it did, right in the middle A dream angrily snatched away All I can hear is the silence I'm left with only today Tomorrow,a word I know well, but not what it means As visions of what could have been lay before me I should be grateful though right From my prisoned past I was set free So why don't I throw a party Where's the smile on my face? Oh wait that's right, I forgot for a moment I'm not in the right place This nonsense can't go on The what if's will drive me mad I'm left with these haunted dreams It all makes me so very sad What if though, we could go back Back twenty two years ago Would things have turned out differently? I guess we'll never know For that was then, and this is now It's time to make a new start There's just one thing I left behind My ever so fragile heart I could pick up the pieces Like I've done so many times before I could think on the bright side Perhaps find a new door It's not going to work this time This is a new journey for me From now on I make my tomorrow Whatever will be...will be "When life gives you sorrow, may you experience the spirit of laughter" |

Good poem and good advise, as there is no way we can harness the mind of destiny, no way, I tried! Liked this very much. |

 (big angel hugs) Oh Amy, this is sooooooo very true, dearest friend, and though my heart as always goes out to you in that you've had to endure so much pain early in your life, you are a wonderful, loving person who I know can accomplish anything you set your heart and mind to, and I know you will find all the joy and comfort your heart desires! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, I have the utmost respect for you and am always blessed to have you as a friend, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Amy, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other" |
