Today

I'm not sure
just what tomarow will bring
because yesterday you gave me heart ache,misery & pain
today gave me the chance to see you'r face again
to make you smile & laugh once or twice 
oh you know it's true
just like we did when we were lover's
walking hand in hand
embracing a new love
embracing a new friend
Though just for a moment
I gazed into those eye's
with all my heart & soul
I dare not try to hide
or keep the rain from rolling down
while my heart was drowning deep inside
It took all this one lover
you seldom called you'r man
could bring myself  to bare 
not to break down & give into, negative despair
Tough as it may be,to smile while we cry, sometime's it's for the best,if we put the hurt  aside
though not forever,just at least  until it's time
to deal with what we can & let go of what we must
or at least we must try
if only to help heal, the unintended pain's, we'v placed on each of us
That's why I've made this decision,hard as it may be for me at times,even tougher for one to 
keep
This promise of compassion,from this worn down soul,not to loose myself in hate,or loose 
my self control
but remember to show warmth & kindness through open hearted understanding
for there surely is another hurting,& taken by love's tole
So an oath to myself  I'm making,for true love  I'll be waiting,with every heart beat aching
longing for thy real love,to come around & save me
Untill that fine day,when ever it will be
to keep a part of my heart open,for the one that's ment to be
for if  I loose sight of how to love
then love might loose sight of me..........BY. SCOTTIE B GARROW. 12/5/09
