It might seem strange to reply to me but I just wanted to explain to any readers that this poem is not meant for OM's eyes. I needed to write it for me. I am committed to no contact with OM.<P>Thanks!

I don't know why I'm here. I've posted on every other forums on this site - so why not leave one here.<P>I like your poem - especially the ending! You take care of yourself, okay?

SKM, I've missed you so much. I haven't been able to keep up that well lately with MB. I am still in pain but doing a lot better. How are you doing?<P>I hate having thoughts of OM. It hurts so much. I think I am moving forward in forgiving myself and then it all comes back like the tide washing backward. We are in the process of moving and have incredible miracles. I will email you asap.<P>Thanks for being there for me. Things really are good for the most part. Thanks be to God!<BR>
