"cry for the living"

[BabyGrace]

close your tired eyes
they don't see anymore
I look through the glassy surface
your emptiness fills me with pain
go, go on, go away
fly away, fly
through this thick night sky
you were crawling to find your wings
anyway
good-bye...an emotional good-night
you'll be up with the sun
and you're not coming down
they say when you're lonely
just look at the moon
but I don't know
if the same moon
silvers the skies of heaven
no matter
go soar through the chance of life
run away from the crying wind that chases you
good-bye, like forever
is just now,
a moment in your imagination
a place in my heart

for May-may, Doc, Mrs. Stieber, Roger, and Britney

I just wanted to let you know, since I forced you to share my burden, that my grandpa passed away Saturday and he is at peace now. Thank you for your prayers and understanding and I am truly sorry for making you all have to know about it...I know there is enough pain in the world to go around

oh Nikki, I'm so sorry, sweetie.
I understand what you are going through, believe me.
And don't be silly, of course you can tell people about these things. I have you in my thoughts, matey.
Your poem shows how much you love him and I'm sure he knew.

Take care of yourself, okay?

Beautiful poem...
You have my sympathies as well... I lost an aunt a few years ago and it still hurts. Take care.

face I had before the
world was made....**

**Work like you don't
need money, love like
you've never been hurt,
and dance like no
one's watching.**

You guys are all way too kind...I am so glad I found you people

foray, your poem is beautiful and very touching and I'm sorry you were moved to the point where you had to write it...
Alisaura and zoomanda, I can't imagine the pain you have been through...I wish there was no hurt for such nice people

All of you...thank you and God bless you guys...
