42/F/American I am 42, and I have found the love of my life. I also have five children.. We are currently living in the wonderfully rainy state of Oregon (note sarcasm).
Mad silence is all around Whispering to me Ringing in my ears The sounds of silence Are all around The sound of sadness Rings loud and true Pain in my heart An ache to be healed The sounds of sadness Are all around The sound of loneliness I feel deep and true Heart, house and life Full The sounds of loneliness Are all around The sound of pain My pain My life My heart The sounds of pain Are all around The sound of love I Do desire The sounds of love Are all around The sound of laughter To abound The sounds of laughter Are all around The sound of happiness Someone to hold The sounds of happiness Are all around All these sounds I Hear Someone else's laughter Someone else's happiness Someone else's love Only my own loneliness Only my own sadness Only my own pain Only my own mad silence Ring in my ears

Mad Silence
Did I love you in another lifetime? Could it possibly be? Another lifetime for you and me? So many clouded memories fill my mind. Images of what might have been. Dreams of what we could have had. Did I love you in another lifetime? Could it possibly be? Another lifetime for you and me? Memories flood my mind veiled in the mists of what could have been. Longing to feel your touch again, I sit and think of you. Did I love you in another lifetime? Could it possibly be? Another lifetime for you and me? Remembering what was once, But is now forever gone. Did you love me? Did you? Did you love me in another lifetime? Could it possibly be? Another lifetime for you and me?

In Another Life
I wish that I could see myself just as you see me. I wish I could see the beauty that you see. I wish I could feel the love that you say is there. I wish I could feel that I am as perfect as you say. I just wish I could see my strength just as you do. I don't see these things I see the chaos I see the pain I see the hurt I see the loss I just wish I could see my strength just as you do.

I Wish
Do you hear me Do you see any part of me Do you feel me If I cut you will you bleed for me? I try to walk in your shoes I try to understand But I feel like I'm walking all over your soul Do you feel me reach for you Do you hear me call to you Can't you feel me waiting in pain I wonder do you need me like I need you (even as a friend) I remember the memories (from the past) I wish you could understand (as I do) I reach for you I call to you Do you even hear me My heart aches for you But I feel like I'm walking all over your soul Can't you feel me waiting in pain You say we are friends I believe you You are the best friend anyone could have I love you, I tell you I do Do you love me, do you feel anything for me (even as a friend) Can you say the words that I long to hear (even as if a friend) The pain gets to me The times when I feel there are things you want to say Things I know that I want to say, and I can't It would change things too much And I won't risk you and what we have. But I feel like I'm walking all over your soul Can you feel me waiting in pain Do you feel me reach for you Do you feel me call for you Can't you feel me waiting in pain When I thought everything was gone, lost, there you were to pull me back Please hear me when I call to you Please feel me when I reach for you Can't you feel me waiting in pain I love you, you may never love me but I will love you until I die and even then nothing can break that love I wish I could just let you go... I need to let you go.

Do You Hear Me
Do you hear me Do you see any part of me Do you feel me If I cut you will you bleed for me? I try to walk in your shoes I try to understand But I feel like I'm walking all over your soul Do you feel me reach for you Do you hear me call to you Can't you feel me waiting in pain I wonder do you need me like I need you (even as a friend) I remember the memories (from the past) I wish you could understand (as I do) I reach for you I call to you Do you even hear me My heart aches for you But I feel like I'm walking all over your soul Can't you feel me waiting in pain You say we are friends I believe you You are the best friend anyone could have I love you, I tell you I do Do you love me, do you feel anything for me (even as a friend) Can you say the words that I long to hear (even as if a friend) The pain gets to me The times when I feel there are things you want to say Things I know that I want to say, and I can't It would change things too much And I won't risk you and what we have. But I feel like I'm walking all over your soul Can you feel me waiting in pain Do you feel me reach for you Do you feel me call for you Can't you feel me waiting in pain When I thought everything was gone, lost, there you were to pull me back Please hear me when I call to you Please feel me when I reach for you Can't you feel me waiting in pain I love you, you may never love me but I will love you until I die and even then nothing can break that love I wish I could just let you go...

I feel lost and alone the past haunting me. I know you care but it's not the same as it once was. I wish you could see into my soul and know the love I feel. I wish I could see the strength in my soul just as you see it. I'm not strong like you believe, I'm weak and fragile and my heart is breaking. I'm scared of what I see, I'm scared of what I feel, I'm scared of what I know. Images of the past dance in my mind, showing me pretty pictures of what once was. Now it fades into ash and dust, and the pictures fade away. The pictures are not lost though, just forgotten for a time... Forgotten until you find the key that unlocks the memory Then they come spilling forth And my heart breaks again because I can't tell you without fear of rejection. Things are different now for both of us, it isn't the same as it once was The fear looms near and my heart feels it creeping in. I just want to tell you all I see, I want you to know what I know... I want you to believe as I do...it won't change anything in the present I just want you to know -- then maybe the pain in my heart will ease Maybe I can listen to a ballad and not cry for the memory of you. My heart longs for you but my fear holds me back and I sit and cry for you.

The Past
I can't sleep when you're all I think about. How do I hide what I feel for you from everyone; you're like my secret I hide from the world. Fate sought to make it impossible to have you anywhere but in my head; but that isn't enough. I feel like there is a ghost living in my heart. A ghost that just won't let me be,  won't let me go. You hold on to my heart and how can I let you go when you won't let me be; your memory haunts me. Oh, my Love we can't live in the past but our hearts belong there. There our love is true and whole. We can be together no questions asked. I need you like the tide needs the moon and if I can't have all of your love in this life then I will settle for what I can have. It breaks my heart and hurts like no pain I have ever felt before; but friends we must be. I love you but I will let our past go, let it fade into the night wind and say goodbye to it. I love you and I must say goodbye now...I need to let you go, what holds me to you, please let me go...let me go. I love you!

Let Me Go
I wish it would all go away. the pain the hurt the sorrow This life has enough of the pain hurt and sorrow More gets added and you don't know how to deal with the pain hurt and the sorrow Is the love (friendship) real or is it just my imagination the pain hurt and sorrow A connection so strong like no other the pain hurt and sorrow When will it all go away when will it stop the pain hurt and sorrow I just want the love, the friendship and everything that goes with it even the pain the hurt and the sorrow Just as long as I have you in my life I'll take it all and then some even the pain the hurt and the sorrow And I'll always be there for you no matter what through the pain the hurt and the sorrow.

Pain
Today I cried for you I just wanted you to tell me a beautiful lie but not even that was possible The tears flowed as the emotions became overwhelming I just wanted to hear a beautiful lie from you Why was it not possible The sun went down and darkness surrounded and still I cried I just wanted you to tell me a beautiful lie Why couldn't you, would it have hurt anything The darkness held me in it's cold embrace when I wanted to be in your warm embrace I just wanted to hear a beautiful lie from you Why won't you just say it I cried in the darkness, tears wet on my cheek, all for you No beautiful lie came from you Why can't you just tell me you love me it's all I wanted, a beautiful lie
