With this ring…….I’ll be led You’ve changed Of course! They always do You still love me And you think I love you too Hold out your hand Close your eyes A shimmering diamond To my shock and surprise How could you think I could even accept After breaking free Of the cage, where I was kept I’m no longer your slave and punching bag I gave away my ironing board And learned not to say “Yes, of course my Lord” Forget it! You, I will not wed Fate doesn’t lie With this ring…I’ll be led Marina Apr 2000 |

Very nice poem just the same. "The storm rises up when the shadows descend every beat of my heart every day without end I will stand like a rock I will bend till I break till theres no more to give if thats what it takes I will risk everything I will fight I will bleed I will lay down my life if thats what you need every second I live thats the promise I make" I have no idea who wrote this... tell me if you know. =) |

OOOOOH..scared of you Marina-girl ![]() excellent declaration my friend... way to be...way to say (smile) take care, jm Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders And it makes me want to touch you there. And the light in your eyes makes me feel Like there's something much better out there Something kind... And I know someday I might be looking around Trying to find some purpose Well purpose it can't be that hard to find As long as I've got the wind... The wind and your love to carry me. vertical horizon |

Jeffrey, thanks for the post and the support Whitenite, I woulnd't exactly say it's my view on marriage....perhaps just married to this person Sven, I'm trying to put myself back together and I needed to release some feelings that this person has obivouisly created in me. Thanks for your support my friend. You know that I appreciate it more then ever. Jm, you know me! I don't go quietly! Marina |

Sometimes thats they way it makes us feel I suppose. Looking for treasures...found another one. Missing this poet too. I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement. |
