PS - this needs no part three.

I can't write part three. It hasn't happened.
I know one day. I am going to see her.
I am afraid and excited all at the same time.
I can find her, I can ask others about her. I don't.

I do hope and wish her happiness.

What would I say when we meet?
The thought makes me nervous.

I am afraid I may not be able to garner ( collect ) the right words.
I feel I may owe her an apology, for what is still unclear.
I would give one to secure her moments.
Lost like a baby that can't speak.
I may freeze up.
In awe that she is standing near or in front of me.

She had woke this man up to living.

So true..

I will and...
I would like to explain so many things.
Tell her about my frame of mind when we met.
Tell about how she actually did save me from my own destruction.

Ever heard of death wish?
I was playing a dangerous game and putting my self in situations.
I could have hurt another, or been hurt myself..meeting her brought me back to love.

I regained my self love.
My love of life.
The love to go on.

I confess...I burned all of her pictures accept one.

Death Wish

1. Psychiatry.
   1. A desire for self-destruction, often accompanied by feelings of depression, hopelessness, and self-reproach.
   2. The desire, often unconscious, for the death of another person, such as a parent, toward whom one has unconscious hostility.
2. A suicidal urge thought to drive certain people to put themselves consistently into dangerous situations.

What drives an individual to this level?
It can for many be a series of things or just one thing
It will be different for many people.

LOVE - check

The most difficult thing, it seems, is being able to admit when your love is going nowhere.
You realize they are taking you for granted and they really don't love you back.

BETRAYAL - check - friends, lost a large sum of money and time
DEPRESSION - some

How do you know when you love someone?

When you are ready to lay down your life, sacrifice your style, and give up your rights (and the other person is ready to do the same), then you are sharing true, lasting love.
