If You Only Knew


This is a song/poem my husband wrote.  I love it wanted to share it with you. 

It's sunny, but it's rain'in
It's funny, but it's sad
It feels good, but it made me sick
I wanted to laugh, but I cried instead

Take your newspaper and read it
no one cares about it
I can't see anymore-- I can't scream loud enough-- now my chest hurts
maybe it's from the heart ache I feel, but how do I really care.

It's sunny, but it's rain'in
It's funny, but it's sad
It feels good, but it made me sick
I wanted to laugh, but I cried insteaddddd........

You wanted an answer, bu-----t
you complained about what I said!!
You don't have any class SO go away!
You don't have any gas to drive--so take a bus
Go far away so I don't see you anymore

It's sunny, but it's rain'in
It's funny, but it's sad
It feels good, but it made me sick
I wanted to laugh, but I cried instead

now the pain is here to stay
now did you hear about the pain
now the numbness has come
it seems to be my spurious friend
for now I'll smile fake as a clown
I'll cry no more, no one cares
I'll care no more like my all my trifling peers
but I'll pretend with a smug smile

It's sunny, but it's rain'in
It's funny, but it's sad
It feels good, but it made me sick
I wanted to laugh, but I cried instead

I immediately "got it"...after reading his comment to his buddy...it seems that he has slowly been working on this over the years, but the second diagnosis was the "kicker". I am so fortunate to have you and Tim in my life Heather. You provide me with balance and perspective and you keep it "real". Love to you and yours. I hope you have a grand weekend.
