Array ( [sid] => 183437 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => That is WHEN... [time] => 2016-08-13 10:35:14 [hometext] => [bodytext] => When the last word was the very last.

When the last drop was all there was.

When the last touch was the last time.

When the last stop was the end of the line.

When you realise that there is not a minute more.

When you feel stripped and bare to the core.

When the night you experience is the darkest of dark.

When the table is cleared and the emptiness stark...


That is when the ONLY way is up,
when you crawl forward and REFUSE to stop.

When you turn to growl at the darkness snapping at your heels,
that is when you get to know how COURAGE feels! [comments] => 3 [counter] => 205 [topic] => 21 [informant] => LadyCC [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

wise... very!!!

when all the struggles build
/the breaking point was imaginary/
but was it/
You know it was not/
but all the worry has left the room

seeing that there are so many better things to do

LadyCC - you wrote a very wise thing here, and it is the way you wrote it that makes me understand

you know it.

Thanks!

Peace!
