The Tears that didn’t…   What feelings are these that swirl within? Is it anger or disappointment that begins to brim? Dressed up and made up and now nowhere to go Hurting inside but my pain I won’t show! I would sooner end it, than expose the hurt Walk away quietly and not remain inert Too often I’ve sat on the edge holding hope This time I won’t, because I know I can cope I’ve been battered and bruised within this heart of mine No more will I sit just towing the line You want and desire, and say you need me You want me close to taste and feel me The door is open, just step inside Do you stand in the doorway, you decide! Tired of arrangements that seem to fail Best made plans that don’t prevail When you feel you’re apt and ready to seize the dawn May your future not hand you; all but hope forlorn!   ~*~     © Elga ~Indigo 4 January 2006 – All Rights Reserved 04H05PM
