My Arrow

Don't you fall, don't make me sad anymore Whenever you call, it makes me feel so helpless I know what is hurting, deep down inside you With no place to hide and crying's not selfish But I will be here whenever you reach out I’m always here for you, you are never without I see those eyes, I do not like them When they are weeping, but when you fly I see you smiling when you lie there just sleeping I understand what everyone is thinking But I see two eyes so playful and beautifully sinking And how I adore you, so stop what you are thinking Love comes from I, in the wind it blows It swirls all round you; I know how it's life And just how it goes, I am just so happy I found you And I miss you, when you are not here And I know that you love me, and I know all your fears So don't ever fall, don't make me sad anymore Whenever you call I know all your feelings; I know when you've been weeping You told me them all; I tell you I love you You are so happy flying and smile when you are sleeping I think of you as you are sleeping I know where you go Right into my heart just like an arrow So don't ever fall, don't make me sad anymore Whenever you call, I will pick you up once more And let you fly and fly into your sweet dreams As you sing into them all, I will hear a song As sweet as a new bird, who sings to the skies Whenever she flies written 05-26-12,

Cynthia, Congratulations on your win. I'm finally making time to read every entry, intended for me in Shadow's Hamilton depression contest. It was a tough fight, however at the end I prayed, and asked to take over and he did. WOW, it was what I call a miracle. Thanks for lifting my day with this poem... Love LINDA

I am happy you are better, I pray a lot, I was worried for you, I know what depression is and can do, I am in a long battle myself, I see no end to it yet,

I wrote it for a close friend who helped talk me out of doing something to hurt myself, I have a poem called my last words, it was a real suicide note, it is linked to my arrow

I love the images of wind, singing flying . . . to love, to forgive, to love again . . . that does take incredible courage . . . but without it we would not know the beauty of the flight! Nicely done.
