Array ( [sid] => 114270 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => And Never Would We Be Alone [time] => 2006-02-05 00:52:57 [hometext] => ...for Paul and I [bodytext] => Long ago in a land we lived
we learned of hurt but before we did
we thought we handled well things;
aside of all the usual.

The land was like a "nickel beg"...
and we thank you for the time we made..
though through our ingenuity
we learned to live alone.

And thinking that our persaverence
minimized his interference,
as lonely as it was...
we had to call it home.

But when we failed, we paid the price..
if nothing else but to suffice
and beaten, we would often ask Him, "Why?"

..."It's what we did?"
..."It's what we said?"

But never 'did' and 'said' became
and so we shouldered all the blame
and wallowed 'neath a cloud of shame...

..of what I said before..

If never such a thing could be
the world would be delightfully
immersed in a divinity
and never would we've been alone.

Billy ~

A very insightful post, to say the least. How well, I comprehend, sympathize and connect
with what words, here, have imparted. The last stanza . . . just absolutely moves me to
tears. But the whole piece is altogether, too remarkable. I wish I could find the words to
express just how far reaching this has gone. *awed into silence*

How you do inspire, dear friend.

Ever and always ~

Sometimes I wish God had not give Free Domain to us. I wish he had kept the power to decided who begets and who raises children or improperly reacts with them. The abuse so many children go through condemn them to a life of painful memories that cannot be forgotten. Never totally overcome, it is a lifelong fight for them to survive daily and be happy. They are always expecting pain, every day of the rest of their lives. Blessings to you both, Billy.

As always,
Rita

Billy,
A sad, emotional and heart breaking write. The words u have written bring back painful memories. I'm so sorry you and Paul endured such pain and sorrow my dear friend. If only one could turn back the hands of time, but sadly that can never be.
My heart and prayers go out to u and Paul. May the haunting memories be erased from ur minds and may they be replaced with joy and happiness.
All my love,
~sue~
