Go the distance
Written by D.A.M
August 12, 2006 (7:02pm)



There will come a time in your life
at one time or another
when your heart will be broken
and all that you can do then
is pray for a miracle
and hope that things can be fixed

It's always hard to let go
of the person that you love
especially when
you never wanted to
and yet you still gave it everything
that you were capable in giving
that was humanly possible
because  you were willing
to go the distance

And some how deep inside
you still feel like you have failed
because things
didn't work out
the way that you
hoped and prayed that they would

And then your whole world
is turned upside down
and you really don't know
which way to go anymore

And that's when
you start hurting inside
and the pain begins
to set in
because your heart
has been broken
into a million little pieces
and this is when  
you have to try
and put all the broken pieces
back together again
one day at a time


And you keep wishing
and you keep  praying
that maybe some day
everything will work out

Yet your thoughts keep
racing through your head
on an uneven ground

This is when
you start asking yourself
why everything had
to happen  this way

Then reality sets in
and everything that you
believe in
and everything that
you are accustomed to
is fixing to make
a dramatic change
in your life

Guilt starts to set in

And then you ask yourself

Is this what true love
is all about
and if there really is a way
to work things out

But then you begin
to realize that it takes two
to make the right decision
in order for things
to flow in the right direction


And that's when it starts to hit you
like a nuclear bomb
because every emotional feeling
that you could ever possibly have
inside your heart has been torn apart
and your having mixed emotions
and confusion
starts to set in
and then you blame yourself
for everything that is happening


You start to realize
that you have
lived half of your life
wishing and hoping
and praying every day
that you could have someone beside
you that would love you for an
eternity and never walk away

And then it happens to you
when you least expect it too
and then  you don't know what to do

The only thing you can do
is hand your burdens
over to him
and start praying
that maybe some day
the person that you love completely
will never walk away again

In the mean time
all you can do
is leave it
in Gods hands


You can wish
and you can  hope
and you can dream
that someone will love you
as much as you love them
in a kind and caring
and passionate way
each and every day
and no matter what storms
you have to face
that you could do it together

Because then you would know
that no matter what
that they would stand beside you
through thick and thin
till the very end

Because they loved
you unconditionally
the same way
that you loved them
in return.

(May peace and happiness
embrace you every day
so that you can enjoy your life
In a very special way)
