So yall know me... I often copy something I've written in response to someone's journal and paste it here because I want to share it with all my friends here at DS... this was written in response to a friend's comments about how she misses her son... We know so well what she means... we too long to see, to hold, to touch, to hear our loved ones... to hope... but that hope... it isn't going to happen... We go on... but yes it hurts...

Anyway so here are... my thoughts for the moment... I wanted to share them with you and I hope they help you not feel so alone... as az's comments helped me not to... Hugs Elissa


I'm always thinking in terms of music... there's an old song this makes me think of...
And it keeps right on a hurtin... every minute of the day... every hour you're away... I feel so lonely...
and I can't help it... I don't think... I can go on... and it keeps right on a hurtin... since you're gone...
yep... we do go on... but there's a part of us that went with our loved one... its ok though... I want there to be a part of me there with my baby till I can bring the rest of me...

I wrote this off the cuff... and unfortunately a poetry writer... I'm not so much... but still I thought I'd throw it out here and maybe yall could add some and could help my poor words...

Don't Cry for me
I'll join them someday
I'll be with them all you see
Its all right, I'm okay

I'll hold them all again
My child, my mother, all my family and friends
Its ok
I'll see them again someday...

Don't cry for me,
My loved ones watch over me
I know that they're okay
Still everynite I pray
