For all the mush heads out there on New Year's...
There was a hole in my heart
One I thought would never heal
Shut out the rest of the world
Closed off so I wouldn't feel
Wouldn't spend another day
Feeling that awful pain
It's easier to be alone
Than go through it all again
And then from out of the blue
Through your words I began to see
That I was not alone
This hole was not just in me
Someone who understands
Though holes they can be mended
The scars will always remain
Even after the pain has ended
In you, I found a kindred spirit
A bond that grew each day
Allowing me to trust again
And love had found its way
My heart is what I have to give
Though scarred it still beats strong
For a love I never saw coming
Those feelings not felt for so long
I've never been one to question
A life that's directed by fate
It brought you to me, unexpectedly
Forever worth the wait

Happy New Year to ye !!!
Love is a great healer of torn and battered hearts. I am so glad you found love once more.
Liz, that's very sweet of you, thank you. The hurting part is hard to get through but it makes you appreciate the wonderful people in your life and to eventually let someone new in, even if it is a little bit scary.
good thing i like potatoes.
Ooh Ed, good question and perhaps a topic for another article.
Mashed potatoes rule, especially when mixed with corn.
