waveseer Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 We search our broken hearts We search our broken minds We finally search the internet And it's ena we find We read and read In wonderment we stare and stare We hardly believe there's a place like this Could it be true that people care? The pressure builds inside us We wonder what to do We want to heal our wounds Will they care for me too? At last the pain increases To be greater than the fear And we pour out our hearts Hoping someone will be here A response or two is all it takes To make us feel renewed Each person that relates Lifts our spirits and our mood We swear our case is different Our love was like no other We'll feel this way for good We're sure we can't recover Encouragement is offered We're sure no difference will it make We accept it when we can Our hearts feel skewered with a stake We do everything we can think of To convince ourselves there's hope Of reconciling with our exes Beyond every shadow of a doubt We try all sorts of tactics None of which will work We bargain, pray, and stay away Hoping for a miracle At last we admit we're beaten Things didn't turn out as we wished Ready to begin recovering Exhausted from exerting our last ditch We want to feel better We want to feel well We want to be happy But uncertain that we will We take the NC challenge We fight it tooth and nail We wrestle with our demons Locking ourselves in personal jail Now we start contributing To others and their needs We reach out to the newcomers And feel our spirits rise One day when we're not looking An ex-free hour of thought goes by Did that really just happen to me? I may just be all right! And so it goes on ena Round and round and round Do stop in when your happy Let your cheer abound Remember when you're well again That you were once so sad And bring to us your method Honoring us with hope freely shared 1 Link to comment
