life ain't no
crystal stair
it's not bad
could be worse
but my steps
are worn
weatherbeaten
tread's wearin thin
bare wood's showin
you hear creakin
there's some splinters
gettin somewhat shaky
through
the trials of life
no matter what
life's storms bring
what rain and wind
life throws at me
there i stand
dependable
maybe not as strong
as i once was
but there i am
still standin
like
weatherbeaten stairs
i'm gettin tired
i need a new lease on life...
and i wonder...
how much
longer
can i hold out????
take my hand sweetheart - for you are never alone. Often it was your hand being help out to me to get me through - let me return the hands of friendship.. You can hold out.. you have such a beautiful soul that shines through in all you so - and withing that souls is a wealth of strength hun.. Write me if you need me.. you know how to find me (( hugs )) and know I truly do care. You are in my thoughts.. I know how you feel..
Love;

A people’s heart can be found in their poetic words. In history men and women have stood firmly upon their soapboxes and street corners, rallying the deepest beliefs of people to rise up and be heard. The poetrypages.com has offered that voice a new
Each person is but a grain of sand resting beside the sea. This thought sets the tone for Jill Eisnaugle’s latest poetry collection, Beside Still Waters.
