Astray



Our love fades away
As each of us goes astray..
To another room
This one filled with gloom.
Of harsh words said...
Wishing thinking of all the dread
Making choices.  
Because of voices
That we scream
Making it seem
Like it's all gone.
So we continue to ponder on.
With the loneliness in our hearts...
No…we're not apart
Each in our own room
As each of us goes astray..
Nothing left to say.

Carol Gurule

I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT HELPING OTHERS AND MAKING A DIFFERENCE ON A DAILY BASIS. I have set off a chain in motion. When you are kind to someone, you set in motion a chain of events that makes each life it touches a little bit better. One by one, that act of kindness is paid forward ... till one day it comes back to you multiplied. I am blessed daily and for that I am thankful and grateful. Remain focused…stay kind. CAROL more…
