A plea for patience. I'm trying, I really am!
JUST GIVE ME SOME TIME.

I look at your photograph every day
The words I am thinking, I don't have to say
out loud, 'cause you know what is deep in my heart
The pain and the sorrow since we've been apart.

I'm feeling so lost, I don't know what to do,
Nothing I did was ever done without you.
How can I move forward and face things alone
I don't feel so brave stepping out on my own.

The family supports me all that they can
Whatever they do, they place me in their plan
Helping me to rejoin the world that is real,
But I do not fit in, like a third or fifth wheel.

No worries, I'm happy here all by myself,
Don't really think it's "sitting home on the shelf"
So many memories for me to recall
It will take a while to remember them all.

Until I am ready to rejoin the throng ~
family and friends I've shut out for so long
I'll write down my day dreams and put them in rhyme.
I'll get out again soon: just give me some time.
