SOME SHIPS DON'T SINK




SOME ships don’t sink

Some songs don’t weep

Some days don't die



Some rivers you think

So steady so deep

Can never run dry



Some days don’t die

Some songs don’t weep

Some ships don’t sink

Some ships don’t sink

Some ships don’t sink

Can never run dry



Some days don’t die

Some songs don’t weep

Some ships don’t sink

Some ships don’t sink

Some ships don’t sink

I know exactly how you feel. A few weeks ago, my friend died in a car accident. I was soo heartbroken. The last thing I said to him was "See you in a hour, Jacob." As it turns out, I didn't see him. For days. Later on I saw the crash in the paper....I miss him....Trust me, I know how you feel

your incredibly brave for sharing this part of yourself with us. thank you for posting this. losing a loved one is so tragic, just like a sinking ship, but you have the strength to stay afloat..you are a very strong and brave soul.

Dear respected FlintHunter,

A mother is a really special person
Her body was once our prison
Father made the first admission
To release, she gave permission

A mother less child has sorrows
And in a way bleak tomorrows
May God kindly soothe your heart
God alone can fetch you comfort.

Nice write,

With best wishes, Thanking you, Yours truly,

mvvenkataraman
