each telling a unforgiving story that you will twist and warp to make your own.
Just start another rumor,
fuel my desire furthermore.
I beg of you, for I need one more brittle excuse to get me by,
I ,at least, will have a motive for my weakness.
For I don’t want to admit that my frailty,
may just be the fault of my own mind.
Could it be?
I destructed myself,
untill there’s only a defenseless child whimpering for a helping hand.
But it still dose not explain what is now (but most certainly not at first) my unfulfilled desire,
that someone, if anyone, will come running or possibly even walking just to reassure me.

I do not flaunt my flaws for I know they’re wrong,
but they still linger and I’m afraid they will never fade completely.
No madder how much we are ready to part,
the world refuses to let us.
Binding us scornfully together,
forcing me to drown in my own shame that you gaily mock.
Is this really what society has came to?
I realize my selfishness,
but can someone just explain this generation?

Here's one more excuse as you requested to
get you by: God loves you and will give you a
peace that passes all human understanding
so that even in your darkest hours, you can
still walk in the light of God's love. I have used
the following advice to reach many others and
it is as ironclad (not brittle) today as it was when
it was authored.

Whatever things are true, whatever things are honest,
whatever things are just, whatever things are pure,
whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good
report; if there be any virtue,and if there be any praise,
think on these things. Phillipians 4:8. Now, walk back out
again into the light! (:>
Blessings,
Robert Edgar "Lawdog" Burns

R E Burns gave good advice.
Personally, I will gladly give you more than one more reason...
But it would be a bit much to type here.
For now, I'll simply beg you to find one thing to smile about everyday...It helps...I've been there...
It's not easy walking through those dark days, feel free to contact me for support. We won't look at flaws...Lord knows I'm tired of being judged for mine. His job to judge anyway...
As for the poem...No apologies...Loved it..
Hugs Love Smiles Blessings

Great write, reminds me of the stupid things I've done for someone special. Sometimes it takes to be at the bottom to see what we really have.

God comes at you like a Mack 10 truck, just let go and let him do the driving for a bit. Your life will change for the better, I know. God Bless and I'm sure we are all here to help if you but ask.
