"I'm Sorry"

I'm sorry for all the pain
that I've caused you
in our times together,
The things that I have done to you,
that I cannot forget...

You say that it does not matter now,
that time heals all wounds.
But, will a strong never ending breeze
bend the sturdiest oak?
Will not the constant flow of water
change the flow of the Nile?

I am older now, and I hoe wiser,
and in age I have realized
that you mean more to me
than the air that I breathe.

And in your arms I hope to be,
when I take my final breath...

to LA mom...just who is forgiving who?

this was a poem written along time ago, did you even read and understand
it?

I doubt it has anything to do with forgivenes.




Be a true friend and really reply truth.



Im sorry for interjecting here, but I feel that this poem written years
ago should not be given a FREE PASS to a friend that needs a FAIR
evaluation of it.

dont just suck up.....thats not a TRUE friend. is it? :cry:

very happy now.

"others" keep it alive.

let me rephrase that.

Its great for scg to be in love again and it does matter.

I guess, this poem, if you really read it doesn't have anything to do
with forgiveness and would only tell you to say hey!!!! the first
paragraph is really scarey.


but gee, Im just a "new" friend to scg.





God Bless

"why make them feel bad"



I havent made anyone do anything, it is their choice if they feel bad.

Im just pointing out that this old poem tells a story, and im trying, as
a friend, to show scg that she should put up her guard....that is what a
true friend would say....

just skimming poems or posts and then putting up love you icons are
doing a diservice to this lovely lady.


Im not trying to ruin anyones parade, destroy or hurt peoples feelings.
Far from it.

Being a friend of scg and reading this poem just caused me to
say..........

be careful.




Wanda...you deserve the best and God wants you to have the best, and
will show you to it. God gave us all a compass...use it, to find your
best.

It seems as though some of you have misunderstood something here.. I
wrote this poem for her 14 yrs ago.. See at the bottom where it says
"Written by: elwoodsully 06/1993 for SCG...14 years ago..."

I had hurt her prior to getting sent to Germany in 1988, and was
apologetic to her when we next met in 1993..

Elwood, I am glad to finally see you here. Its nice that you two are
trying again. As for what others post? Seems they would need to know the
whole story and frankly I am sure it's far too long for here.

BTW, If I know Wanda she was trying to show someone else something with
how she posts.

:wink: bigsmile

where is it our place to try and interpret what someone elses intentions
were or were not in what they have written? If SCG is happy and this is
what floats her boat it is no way shape or form our business to publicly
put down what she has chosen to share with us if you can't be uncritical
then you should keep your damn mouth shut.

hi big brother i hear your "coming" home?
