Holding On

 

 

Fear not

I am here

Never far away

 

Reach out

With your heart

I will feel it

 

Stay strong

Close your eyes

Keep me in mind

 

Love’s there

Always is

Always will be

 

This just

A moment

That soon will pass

 

Again

You will see

Smile beaming back

 

Nothing

Even this

Can stop my love

 

 

And when

That day comes

I will promise

 

 

Never

To let go

Of you, again

      Thank you, dear friend! Now if I only had someone to say it to. πŸ€—β€πŸ˜˜

        I can always count on you to be the eternal optimist, G! Thank you for the thoughtful words. I guess I am feeling the effects of being single just a little more deeply lately. This too shall pass. Thanks for the love and support! You are greatly appreciated! πŸ€—β£

      • My pleasure Brad. My dear friend I know tragedy. Yet I survived and you are right. There is vein of optimism inside me that does not want to go away.
        I guess most people who are single feel that strongly these days. She will come Brad if you want her to come. You will see. Write me then because I want to partake in your joy my dear friend.
        Have a beautiful day ahead
        Xoxo

      If our being given expression is a gift, then it is most important in times like these, that we are the voice of those for whom expression is difficult. Thank you for your undying support and love, my dear friend!
