Emma ... Sometimes when it seems that all is lost in the dark When all the laughter is gone and our thoughts are stark When the moon has dimmed behind the clouds When silence reigns in rooms that once were loud Sometimes when it seems the world has gone cold When we are stripped down to our bleeding soul When the sun, once warm, now beams shards of ice When our hearts are cut as if by a sharpened knife Sometimes when all is lost and we are our most alone When the pain throbs down to our very bones When all we loved seems as if it has forever disappeared When echoes of now dim memories are all we hear ... That is when we grow our very most strong When in our hearts we know where we belong When we work with all we have for our self to show When we hold our body straight like a panther arrow's bow That is when we keep our heads held high When we remember that our spirit does not quit or die When we lean on our most dear and trusted friends When we understand that a beginning can look like an end That is when we look inside for all we need When we listen to our heart but take cautious heed When we know that we will always reach for the shining sun When we know that our growth is never really done. aziza |

very true, but it makes me think about how bad people in say africa have it. a hell of a lot worse than we could ever imagine. they must be stronger than anyone in the world. I am the two-toed wanderer |
