i've wrecked my train plenty of times....
the metal screams still wake me up at night from time to time.
no one seemed to know i was approaching the speed of sound
with one hand on the wheel
and one hand holding all the cancerous cargo behind me.
a few times i heard whispers of caution..
earnest pleas to put on the brakes....
but by then the momentum seemed stronger than the wind
and i was still was driven by a hungry heart.
i've wrecked my train
i've crashed and burned
but love picked me off of the tracks.

Please explain. My heart is filled with pain and dread. You don't deserve any more train wrecks.
i'm with glenda on this one...are you okay? i'm in cincinnati, but if you want to call my cell, feel free...
speaking of the past -
picture me now - walking, balancing on the railroad ties, wind in my hair and the peace of God in my heart. that's where i am now..
but the train wrecks have humbled me to admit my weaknesses and keep on my toes.
thank you for caring about me.
i am a survivor in so many facets.
you are amazing jaki. i honestly hope that one day i can be as strong of a woman as you are.
