as i read your profile
i saw some of my own life
you touched on things
in a way
that i could never do
each word i read
they drew tears
and my heart began to ache
within you words
the truth reveled
itself again to me
you spoke of love
so generously
your partner and your kids
you opened up
let me see
apart of your own soul
it sadden me
and made me weep
the similarities
between your life
and that of mine
when it came to love
you wrote of distances
between yourself
and that of your own heart
the man you love
the kids you raised
the hurtful things inside
constantly i find myself
within this dilemma too
only i'm still struggling
to find a middle ground
a place to meet and unite
and try to understand
it was you who answered
when i asked for someone to trust
talk with to and keep me sane
when ever that i'm lost
so here i am this time for you
honored to be your sister

Welcome sister!

Hello my beautiful friend, I send to you much love and happiness, and hope that this message greets you with a happy heart.
Sweetheart, your words have touched me so deeply, they have wrapped around my heart warming me with your love and caring.
You have penned this so well, telling the story of why you wish to be part of this family, a family of love and respect.
We do have similarities and that is why we have clicked with friendship, God has a way of bringing love into our lives.
Some days I still struggle with my life, some days the past hurts come back to haunt me, but knowing that I have caring friends reasures me that I am not alone.
If I could reach through this monitor,I would tenderly hug you and give back to you, what you have given to me, and that is love and caring of another human being.
Sweet heart your poem was written extremely well,
and I have so much love to give, and would dearly love to share this with you.
So with arms opened wide, it would make my heart so very happy for you to join my family.
I'm glad to have you as my 'Sister'.
Welcome sis!
With deep appreciation I thank you for wanting to become a member of my family, and also for noticing my contest and taking the time to enter it.
I send to you much love and happiness and look forward to getting to know you more deeply than what I already do!
Take care my beautiful loving sis.
Much love,
~Angel-Anne~ (aka Anne)
