I know

I know your suffering

feel it deep in my bones

the doubt that haunts you

Makes you feel alone

 

I know you're searching

it unsettles my soul

an answer to your question

a need to feel whole

 

I know of your dreams

often wake you in the night

yet some soft and gentle

that take you on a flight

 

I know of your compasssion

hope that lights my way

encircles me like an embrace

leads me home when I stray

Very nice Sue! Glad I brought your rating to a 10 and got rid of that 9 there! I have done that quite a bit last few days.. I thought it was impossible once someone rated under a 10 but its not..

I really enjoyed this! Thanks Sue!
Paula Love Feb 25, 2008, 7:45am EST
Just had to come back and read this again. You seem to know, for sure.

Thanks for your encouraging words.
