The night falls all around me like a blanket
The stars all fade and slowly start to die
And oh my heart has gone so still and quiet
It's just another way to say goodbye.

The sun comes up and sheds its wintry lightness
But never does it seem to shine on me
My life has lost its color and its brightness
And pain becomes my own reality.

There was a time when once I thought you knew me
But now your wintry chill just blows right through me.
I only have a few more tears to cry...but then
It's just another way to say goodbye.

To thy own self be true

Roniece, I know that all I seem to write about is sadness, Unfortunately, right now that's all I seem to know.

Thank you for your lovely compliment.

Dear Dixie,

It seems like I've been sad for forever. I know that there were brief moments of happiness in my life, but when I look back at those moments now, they don't seem real to me. I can't remember the happiness I felt then. I can't remember what happiness was or is.

Having happiness in my life seems like an impossible dream. At least with another mortal.

But I've always liked the saying "That where there's life, there's hope."

Sooo maybe?
