Soul Surfing

Lost
and tossed
dazed, confused
tired of tears
and being abused
I am trying to grow
and find a much better way
I have two choices...leave or stay
loved with such anger tears me in two
trying to figure out what I should do.

Fabulous emotive write, hope it is fictional though. Love should be adoration not abuse. A definite 7 and going in my favourites as I know someone who needs to read this.

"Hello Precious Robin!"~Just Be You Dear!~Stay near to "The Light" that you know, and just be "You!"~You can never go wrong, when your soul speaks your words! Smile~But, if I could, I would hand you happiness within a glass, sparkling and bright! Let me read your other write dear lady, "Love Always, John!"
