The saddest thing is, you see

That I have loved and been loved, but it's never been really equal. And it's not an AG issue, it's that, I think, I loved first and when I love I love totally...whereas the people I've loved held back or kept their options open or something.

That last one, whew, he snuck in under my radar! I thought I'd firmed up my heart enough, and I had for a frontal assualt, but he was kind and clever and so intrested in talking with me...sneaky, huh? We were friends for months before the sexual innuando started and the teaseing and flirting...

But it never got past stage one, though we both thought it would, because of family issues on his side (again, not AG related) and when I offered help and support he couldn't accept it and we drifted apart.

Well, this time I'm looking for love, but I'm not going to love as easily. No more mushy stuff, see?











Oh, who am I kidding?

Goodnight, my someone, goodnight, my love.
Sleep tight, my someone, sleep tight, my love.
Our star is shining its brightest light,
For goodnight, my love, for goodnight.

Sweet dreams be yours, dear, if dreams there be
Sweet dreams to carry you close to me.
I wish they may and I wish they might.
Now goodnight, my someone, goodnight.

True love can be whispered from heart to heart,
When lovers are parted they say.
But I must depend on a wish and a star
As long as my heart doesn't know who you are.

Sweet dreams be yours, dear, if dreams there be
Sweet dreams to carry you close to me.
I wish they may and I wish they might.
Now goodnight, my someone, goodnight.

Goodnight! Goodnight!

how lovely, romance is wonderful! thank you for sharing that beautiful poem.

Actually is a very lovely song sung in the Music Man, if you rent the old video Shirley Jones does a beautiful version.

Hey splinter,
I want to let you know that I have the same problem with a certain YM, but my thing is my ex-husband. I finally told him how I feel and other things, and he was concerned if my ex would cause him trouble for his less than perfect ways I said he probly would'nt like him seeing me, but it's nothing to be afraid of. Since then he has completely kept his distance. That was two nights ago. My fear is I have said too much.... I feel your pain mine snuck in the back door as well. The thing that is killing me is he has all the qualities in a man that I am looking for, but he is extremely shy or he hates me. I don't know??? This is the same YM that is my neighbor that I had talked about earlier in a post. I wanted to let you know I am right with ya.

Yeah, well, we can't fight our true natures, Lady. We can get smarter about it but we can't fight it.

Love found me in the middle of nowhere. **** it all!

This is such as beautiful song. I sang it over 20 years ago in High School Choir!

Such hope and longing in it, and such conviction.

She knew, even tho she was a spinster libarian, that there was someone out there for her.

I wish I could be so sure.:(
