Great Quote

"Don't you just love these long rainy afternoons in New Orleans when an hour isn't just an hour - but a little piece of eternity dropped into our hands... and who knows what to do with it?"

-Blanche DuBois, "A Streetcar Named Desire"

Aloha, Mahalo and Aloha....

Aloha: Hello
Mahalo: Thank you
Aloha: Goodbye

Aloha
You did have me at Hello...
Don't ever forget what I told you
About the first vision of you

Mahalo
For all the times of fun
The shoulders of support
The growth
The patience
The Love
Mahalo....

Aloha
I never wanted to Hurt you like this
Never...
I'm sorry
I Miss what we were
But know Aloha is needed
Now
Leaving Room
for Another,
Aloha...

DisMantling

Dismantling and Disecting
Every little thing of the last 8 years
Dismantling this House
Disecting the Flow
The Flow of Errors
of Unspoken Hurts
The Flow of Disappointments

Dismantling this Union
Disecting our parts
Standing amidst the Rubble
Wondering:
How did this take Place?

Dismantling a Love
Disecting a Cancer
That allowed It to grow into Nothing
But It will Never be Nothing
It will Always be Something
Something Special in my Heart

Dismantled, Disected
Into pieces
Bit by Bit
I tried to help you Understand
the Best way that I could

The task I see, impossible
Not for lack of wanting
Not for lack of caring
Not for lack...
Only because the Pain too blinding
I hope that in pieces, one Day
you may See Clearly
Hear Clearly
The Truths I have told you

My Pain is Large too
You have to know that
All that you have dismantled, disected and disgarded
Back to meWas never a Lie
What we had wasn't a Lie
And What I hold Dear will Always be True
the 1, 2, 3, 4
the So Much Too...
the 222
It breaks my Heart too

I will never have Hate in my Heart for you
I simply and catastrophically had to grow from You
And, I see, You from Me too.

Grace, I pray
Will bestow Us
and Lead us both
Like it Always has
Try to Hold onto that Small Piece for me
It won't Hurt to try
Just tuck it away
Far and Deep Away
And If I ever find Shelby...........
