Got my glue gun and that didn't work.
Tried a new man and he couldn't twerk.
Sang some blues and danced a cleansing
dance.
I finally buried the long dead romance.
Wrote poetry for Valentine and felt like a fraud.
You proposed but I found out you were not free
to do so....OH MY GOD!
Time waits for no man I cry.
As I wipe the tear from my eye.
You say you love me, but you are not ready.
I say I am not some girl you can ask to go
steady.
Not ready?
You had over 30 years...
We traded fears for tears and forged ahead.
You said the old man was dead.
But, here he came peeping on Valentines day.
And cried and told me to just walk away.
So I sit here and I know that I will make it
anyway. I already knew yesterday.
I felt the cold creep into my heart.
It hit me so hard I had to start...
The pain was already dissipating.
I was just getting ready and waiting.
So I will find the real true love....
And I thank you for leaving me whole.
Though I have a broken heart.
It's two parts.
The new part and the old.

Thank you Rich, just speaking what I feel.

Oh, Rich I can tell you so many things about what I am going through. And then sometimes I can just sribe about it and you seem to know just what to say. I thank you for reading and understanding. I, had my mental prepared months in advance, but it doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. But, with a cyber family like Destee. surrounding me with LOVE, I know that I am going to be alright. This didn't happend over night, but Valentine's day brought out the "True Lover" in me and made me look at what "Love " is supposed to be.
Blessings On Ya House!

thanks you for sharing this!!

it seems that no matter how "grown" we get
...the one thing that remains constant is that
love continues to be the teacher of the lessons
that are either the hardest/most painful or the
most joyous/wonderful. & another thing that
doesn't change when you have a true capacity
to/for love (like i KNOW you do) is that... you will
be BETTA than alright... & when the time comes...
you g'on turn it out, chile!! :D ...feel me?

blessings on ya house & alwaysLove!

OH Elayne, thanks so much!

"weeping may go on in the evening, but Joy cometh in the morning". It's in the "BOOK"
I know what you say is true, and Mr.Man will have to learn his lesson without my compromise this time. I always forgive and forget and take back, and look past...Now I am looking past him and seeing a bright future doing what I love...even with a tear in my eye..."And I will understand it better , by and by!"

Blessings On Ya House!
