It Finally Sinks In
13 February, 2003
author: Rebecca Ditch-Hammack (aka Dreamer)
No longer will the phone ring each night
Converstions of silence will be no more
Loneliness suddenly overwhelms my heart
As reality finally sinks in
Alone I sit in a world we created together
Without my love, but for my heart
My strength leaves me and I fall upon my bed
Unable to stop the tears
Facing the facts that I had denied
Hoping with all my heart the day would never come
But it has..
Now I am forced to face my fear
I see the picture upon the stand beside me
I see the eyes that bid me be strong
Yet the more I try.. the more I fail
And I feel my heart shatter within me

| Marci (204.248.60.10) -- Friday, February 21 2003, 03:37 pm Although feeling like this inside is unbearable, you have expressed it perfectly. For the past few days I have been staring at a blank piece of paper trying to find the words to describe how I've been feeling. Reading this has brought tears to my eyes, but has also opened them. It is so hard to face reality sometimes. My thoughts are with you Becky....if you think positive....then positive things will happen :o) |
