I believe In my heart
You're done with me
The future we planned
I guess will never be
The love we once shared
It is now all gone
And too soon for me
You will be moving on
If you ever cared for me
It's impossible for me to tell
You're out there living life
I'm here living in hell
You still smile everyday
While everyday I only cry
I was the only one damaged
When you said goodbye
Goodbye my little August
Here comes your time to fly
I’ve loved you, to be honest
Much better than July
September’s on the threshold
The summer paid its price
The autumn wind blows cold
Precedes the winter ice
Though many autumns I have seen
And winters in their prime
I couldn’t imagine it would seem
Like a delayed goodbye
More nights, my darling, without you
More leaves at your back door
But memories remain like new
We thought they would, before.
Wicked smile, turned dust,
Two halves of a broken soul,
Nothing left to chase.
My heart, though silent, beats steadier, then
Love is written in this gentle voice
Cool winds, playing softly, a moment, when
Gentle thoughts offer no other choice
Singing a chorus of love that believes
My spirit soars to new heights, I can see
Beyond the music of the tree who grieves
Sweetest song, so rich and brave, wind can free
Secured by faith, the joy of love shines bright
Sweetest tones of hope drift over my life
While notes of peace rise from the sunny light
I feel the sway of music that heals worst strife
Thrown about by the dreadful winds of change
Like a leaf in the woods, whose fate feels strange
You had to say goodbye.
Gently kissed the tears from my eyes.
Soon we will meet again.

The sweetest hello she says
loving she more than gives
But before the light of day
she is gone on her way
Sexy in every way
heartache so many she gave
love them than leave them
she no longer needs them
quietly she slips away
So many gifts she gets
blessed by sharpest of wits
Her touch melts the coldest heart
than breaks it in two as she departs
Men search for her in vain
sleepless nights crying her name
nothing but you alone in bed
loving her tell you're dead
all her lovers broken the same
The sweetest hello she says
loving she more than gives
She never says goodbye
cause she haunts you till you die
She never says goodbye...
Ruth: It’s all my fault— my lost hat! How can you forgive me that!
Buddy: Quite an ego you have, miss, taking blame for stealing bliss!
Ruth: I’m contrite! Wasn’t right! My pillow is drenched every night!
Buddy: You make me ashamed, my dear, I chose to chase it— you hear?
Ruth: I wish you had let it go, but there was no way to know.
Buddy: My gallantry would you excuse, had I not worn my shoes?
Ruth: But why’d God take you away, ‘stead of by my side to stay!
Buddy: In Him there is only Light— He’s sad, too, to see our plight.

We say: "So long",
not because goodbye is kind,
but because we hope,
time will hesitate,
before being gone,
before until rings shut.
We stretch our longing,
so thin, so long,
it begs its time,
to delay its gong,
'til after the last bell.
We trick our leaving,
until it forgets to go,
betraying the staying;
left in the swan song.
Time keeps the till.
Love keeps the change.
One counts what is leaving,
The other what is remaining.
Both wait so long—
'til the till clicks shut.
I met with Him
Before we were nothing forever.
I did not speak of feelings;
The strength of my words
Could not be measured.
It was enough that I was with him.
As the sun is with the air,
As day mingles with night
in the twilight and in the dawn;
Two Oceans overlapping,
Caressing every shore.
In every moment we shared
I absorbed him.
He will remain in me
Long after I am gone.
I will carry him with me
Until I reach my end.
And He will know,
Forever:
That He was Loved.
"The heavy gates have finally latched behind you; the debt of your struggle is paid in full with blood and time. As you step through those golden doors, I offer you this parting gift: the quiet, shimmering realization that you are finally free. Go—and do not look back."
My friend had to put his dog to sleep today,
he was a Dachshund only five years old;
loyal, brave, clever, pretty eyes,
feisty, beloved, with floppy ears.
Brutis had a "big" dog personality all the time,
loved most people, children, and other dogs;
Oh, Brutis had so much charisma, so much charm,
I can see him walking with that wee hop in his step.
But, Dachshunds have delicate backs,
and Brutis suddenly became paralyzed.
No surgery possible,
no other option ~
So, he said goodbye and I love you Brutis today,
you were a little warrior- now, go get your wings !
he walks among angels now ~
though it broke my heart
i had to set him free

I lit a Black Excalibur cigar; the night drifted away.
Your gentle voice echoed off high walls.
We danced in shadows, where hopes do sway,
But fate denied the dream that love recalls.
Your gentle voice echoed off high walls,
Promises whispered, fading with the dawn.
But fate denied the dream that love recalls,
A story written, but its chapters gone.
Promises whispered, fading with the dawn,
The distance grew with every longing sigh.
A story written, but its chapters gone.
We learned that love can’t teach the heart to lie.
The distance grew with every longing sigh,
We danced in shadows, where hopes do sway,
We learned that love can’t teach the heart to lie,
I lit a Black Excalibur cigar; the night drifted away.
That’s right. It left.
No longer part of the living, breathing Jewish People
Dwelling proudly in its ancient-modern ancestral homeland, yet
Witnesses to Jew-baiting and Jew-hating reemerging worldwide in our times
a mere 80 years after it led to the murder of six million
innocent sons and daughters of Israel
The Left will be welcomed back
with open arms
should they come to their senses ~
before the haters they love to appease slaughter them all
White sage burns in the new year
A higher power is summoned
For strength and peace of mind
I ask that we be free of pain
Smoke slowly sifts through the morning sun
As I cut the last ties that tether
And shed this mess of anguish as I grieve
The loss of one I hold so dear
My voice rings clear as I practice forgiveness
To myself for holding on for so long
I let go of hope that he’ll ever come back
Or that the feelings I imagined were real
Now I burn these words in the frigid air
Good-bye to his hold on me at last
The memories will fade deeper into the past
As these boundaries are set to restore
