Liz Liz, you left me. You left me crying, Weeping, In the middle of a deserted road. That was the first time I shed tears. Liz, you broke me. You broke my heart in half. I was already broken to begin with. It was the first time I had a heart to break. Liz, you hurt me. You hurt me like I’d never been hurt before. It was the pain that got to me. But it was the first time I felt long enough to feel ache. And the worst is… You did nothing to me. You loved me. And I loved you, You were the first I ever adored. You didn’t leave me broken and hurt. You just left this world To a place where I could not follow. Like I said, It was the first time I cried. And all this agony and sorrow Because you died. I miss you, Liz. ~ Dedicated to Elizabeth Donavon, my first and last love ~ |

Beautiful and poignant! My eyes caught your words "my first and last love" ... you live and I hope your heart will be able to be open to give and to receive. Liz will always live in your heart, nothing and nobody will alter this truth. Love, Margherita |

The saying, "It is better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all" ~ may be trite, but I do believe that that is true. You may not have Liz by your side to keep you warm, but a part of her dwells within you which will continue to warm your heart and spirit. Love is pure energy and energy cannot be destroyed. It can take a different form, but it cannot die. Your love for each other lives on. Love & Eternal Light & Love, Earth Angel |

Thanks everyone, I'm glad you all liked it. Lizzy was in a fatal car accident two and half years ago. She was killed on impact so she didn't suffer; I'm happy she didn't suffer. I haven't been able to talk about it so this has really helped me. I want to thank PIP talk and all of you for being so nice and welcoming to me. Sincerely - Ed |
