Living with Ourselves

Living with Ourselves

hello @eudemonism @eth @outlander @Bunniekins @Mazarita @Silenus @NameUnknown @Grasshopper3 @patientpatient @soul @Former-Member @Determined @Shaz51 @Former-Member @Friendconnect @Teej @utopia @Queenie @Appleblossom @Zam @perseverer @Janna @Owlunar @Former-Member @Former-Member

First of all I wanted to let you know that I have conversed with all of you at some stage on both sides of the forum..

It was my intention to close two of my threads and change my name in the kindest way for all of you...

I commenced this process on the 12th March and today is the first day that I have access to actually post or respond to anyone....I was in the last couple of days able to register a new name and like some posts...

I am so sorry that my profile ended so abruptly that was definitely not my intention....

In fact if I had done it my way.. instead of thinking would be better to be guided through the process....I would have just written on one of my threads my reason for closing my account tagging you all in....then requested account to be closed and username put to bed so to speak

I have chosen to take this path in order to protect my family's sense of safety .. privacy...health..

Please let me reassure you that this has nothing to do with any members on here...

I have tagged each and everyone of you because you have given me support and invited me into a little of your worlds...priceless experiences...I have felt heard and valued on here....Thank you all so much..

Moving forward ...this is who I am now and hope to be able to converse on the forum living in the now not the past...therefore no mention of my previous username necessary...

If you do not know who I am...that is fine also...perhaps all of the above is not relevant for you..

take care

Re: Living with Ourselves

@maddison hey there Maddison .. Wasnt anything in the mail box so i went rummaging through sane hallways , reading letters old and new. Every door seems to have sadness and desperation. Endless stories of people waiting , hoping , praying things will change.

For Maddison

She Waits

She stands on the bridge the ripples go by

Autumn leaves falling dreams slowly die

Was it her calling or was it her fate

The years she spent waiting and left it to late

and she waits

Innocent children and mothers with visions

endures the pain of their loved ones decisions

4 in the morning they havnt come home

Alone in the dark with her hand on the phone

All that they where and could ever be

Last leaf falls from her family tree

and she waits....

His wedding vows broken the day they where read

Years of silence and letters unread

In the arms of the lovers and flights far away

pretending rose petals in the place he once lay

Paper back novels a wine glass and pills

Thousands of pieces of hearts paid his bills

Making her plans through rain drops on glass

To feel her bare feet on the freshly mown grass

and she waits.....

She waits in her room for the party to leave

Depends on his mood she might win a reprieve.

Same painted bruised same old torn dress

For now she just better go clean up his mess

Wont do it again ..... yes i do understand

Feeling the wrath of the back of his hand.

Patiently bakes the arsenic in the bread

All that could be's already been said

suit case is packed and the metres been read

But frailty anchored her shoes made of lead

so she waits....

Wind rain and cold sweat and long summer heat

Leans on car windows working the street

Night after night repeating her lies

of paradise islands in the pools of her eyes

The lines on the side walks extend to her face

Human stain endless pain hard to erase

The air ships of dreams that fall from our skies

The gardens abandoned for crooked bow ties

She passed that cold night now her waiting is over

She now waits for me as she lays in her clover

Now i wait

The song at her wake just too sad just too long

So lets leave where we are and go where we belong

Wait no more

Every day is a new years day.. a gift to be unwrapped.... a chance to begin again

@maddison @Sophia1 @Appleblossom nature lover and all the others that have been kind to me.

Happy new year

Was it her calling or was it her fate

The years she spent waiting and left it to late

and she waits

Innocent children mothers with visions

Yes waiting forever is not good.

It really touched me and I do not want to add more for now.

Thank you.
