i long to be in a place
of happiness, of joy
a place i can call home
where i am healthy
and will be better
for you and for them
i want to be the one
who you can lean on
the one of solace and
trust and forgiveness
i will be the rock that
we build a future on
a life i can be proud of

i wonder sometimes when i read your poetry,, how you function outside of the grim shell you paint in some of your work.. at least when i am consumed,, it effects no one but me...
How you evoke such emotion in your poetry Leigh...I am always so touched.
Wanting to be "the rock" is as close as believing you are.

I think all women want to be that rock for their families. And, in most cases I believe we are. It's a safe place for each of us in a good relationship. I love how you place such emotion in your poetry. Have a nice day.
thanks everyone, and paisley, it's a struggle not to let it affect my children, but i get by.
i so love the spirit of your writing... heartfelt, overflowing filled with wonder... indeed a treasured gift...
