struggling....

[yer ardy]

i am...some lovelees here are...i'm into territory i've never visited
before (shaky marriage) and i need some focus, some guidance...some
belief that everything's gonna be alright....my 20th wedding anniversary
is in 20 days, i'd really like to have something to celebrate...but the
wind is roaring and the sky keeps turning grey...

words..for you..for me...
(alison krauss - when you say nothing at all)
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all...

here's a song i heard last night, hadn't hear it in a long long time, hope it helps hon...

i have a picture pinned to the wall
and image of you and of me and we're laughing
with love at it all
but look at our life now, we're tattered and torn
we fuss and we fight and delight in the tears
that we cry until dawn

hold me now
warm my heart
stay with me
lt lovin' start, let lovin' start

you say i'm a dreamer, we're two of a kind
both of us searching for some perfect world we know we'll never find
so perhaps i should leave here, go far away
but you know that there's nowhere that i'd rather be
than with you here today

hold me now
warm my heart
stay with me
let lovin start, let lovin' start

you ask if i love you, well what an i say?
you know that i do and that this is just one of those games that we play
so i'll sing you a new song, please don't cry anymore
i'll even ask for forgiveness though i don't know just what i'm asking it for

hold me now (hold me in your lovin' arms)
warm my heart (warm my cold and tired heart)
stay with me (oh won't you stay with me)
let lovin' start, let lovin' start

talk to you soon

Ardy,

20 years is a long time, and I truly hope okay everything turns out great for you both. I think Share's post says it all. Thoughts are with you.

Try, Try, Try
Pop tart
What's our mission
Do we know
But never listen
For too long
They held me under
But I hear
It's almost over
In Detroit
On a Memphis train
Like you said it's
Down in the heat and the summer rain of
The automatic gauze of your memories
Down in the sleep at the airplane races
Try to hold on
To this heart
A little bit longer
Try to hold on
To this love aloud
Try to hold on
For this heart's
A little bit colder
Try to hold on
To this love
Paperback scrawl your hidden poems
Written around the dried out flowers
Here we are still trading places
To try to hold on
Pop tart
Can you envision
A free world
Of clear division
For too long
They held us under
But I know
We're getting over
In Detroit
With the Nashville tears
Like you said it's
Down in the heat with the broken numbers
Down in the gaze of solemnity
Down in the way you've held together
To try to hold on
To this heart
A little bit closer
Try to hold on
To this love aloud
Try to hold on
For this heart's
A little bit older
Try to hold on
To this love aloud
And we are still alive
Try to hold on
And we have survived
Try to hold on
And no one should deny
We tried to hold onto the pulse of the feedback current
Into the flow of encrypted movement
Slapback kills the ancient remnants
That try to hold on
Try to hold on
To this heart alive
Try to hold on
To this love aloud
Try to hold on
And we are still alive
Try to hold on
And we have survived
Try to hold on
Pop tart
You never listen
Skinned knees
Try to hold on
Stop start
What's our mission
Skinned knees
Try to hold on


A weee bit on thr long side,..;) but such a pretty song..
Ardy,I'm sure I dont need to tell you to try and hold on,I can see you want it bad enough...
so I hope you find the way to stear things to clearer skies,much love to you babe../images/smile.gif

I'm sorry, I just don't know what to say right now...I'm thinking of you, though, and sending my love out to you......

(((ARDY))) I know how you feel, I was sure I was going to kick my husband to the curb yesterday, but we resolved our differences. 20 years is a long time, congrats for making it this long! Relationships are very difficult, dealing with another person EVERYDAY can be hard. From everything I have read from you I believe you are a very funny and giving person. I am sure whatever problems you are struggling with will pass and your smile will return. Stay positive!

[13throwcenter]

Boy ardy, I'd love to have some words of wisdom for you here, darlin', but I'm too fucking bitter about the whole relationship thing, so I better just keep my mouth shut!

'Cept I will say I love you! That shouldn't fuck anything up, I hope?

What if the Hokey-Pokey *is* what it's all about?

[oblio]

Just think how much stronger you will be
after you beat this thing up!!

Ardy,I hope you find the happiness and inner
peace that you so richly deserve.

Hang in there baby,the best is yet to come!!

[anescence]

(((((ardy)))))) I'm going on ten years here, and I know sometimes it ain't easy. I don't know your situation, but twenty years is a long time and if you made it this far, it's something worth fighting for. Take care, I hope things work out for the best for you.
