Let not resolve thus broken lie As heart longs for his lullaby The notes of which were passion laced To match the beauty of his face Be strong Let not your guard now crumble down Remember not his kiss, your crown That circled round your blessed head And then round navel, on his bed Be strong Let not your lips moisten with dew In hope his lips will visit you Let not your thighs a trembling be Were hands of his brought revelry Be strong Let not your heart to melting start Remember how he tore apart Your soul, your life, your self –esteem Dear, be content, to only dream Be strong

"Dear, be content, to only dream"These words need to be read and resound through many hearts, Eileen. Excellently penned...I find comfort in these words... Always, Laura

Yes, Laura. The heart is a foolish thing and at times years for what is not to be. If hurt, it must not succumb to longings and wistful remembrance, for only more pain is there. Thanks for understanding. I'm sure you would understand my sentiments here.
