    The lines are
    I can hear them
    And they're no longer there

    I've looked everywhere, but can't identify an author. Here's the entire poem --

    Charity


    I can hear them
    And they’re no longer there,
    Crying for a hand
    That I couldn’t spare.

    I can see them,
    Though I will not look,
    Reaching for the time
    That I never took.

    I can feel them
    Pulling at my sleeve,
    Asking me to stay,
    Knowing that I’d leave.

    And there’s no way
    That I could help them all.
    But can I even say,
    When all is said and done,
    That when I had a way
    I stopped to help just one?

The wind is whistling. The trees are swaying. The old woman fraying. Every step to your dream, every step from reality. The reality is you can do whatever you want. There is infinite things to explore, if you put your mind to it. Life is like a battle dream or reality. Everything is possible

Apr 15 2010 12:40 PM Forever takes me by a minute, While I'm here with you. I'm falling even more in love, With everything you do. Hold me in your arms, Look deep into my eyes, Don't turn away and let me go, Don't ever tell me lies.
