Guest Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 (edited) No, no this can’t be so. Not happening, I’m saying no. This isn’t what I signed up for! Reddest fire and burning more! Ok, ok, what is it I can do? Anything to make this not true. No more, it’s too much to bear. This is too hard, desperately unfair. I understand, this is how it’s to be. It is so much bigger, far beyond me. Edited June 23, 2009 by MrsP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) may i just ask what relevance the title had with the riddle.........? i'm just curious....... Sure. There are 5 stages in the grieving procces, and 5 vowels. Just a little hint, without being obvious. But really, the title doesn't have to have anything to do with it It could be just to throw everyone off. But, this one was a subtle hint.

0 Guest Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) Yes, kind of what is it called? and what is the process? I know, that is why I said ^ that. You referred to it, but you hand't gotten it yet. Do you think that anyone who eludes to the correct answer should get it? Most of us have specific answers in mind, that's why we spend hours writing these riddles. Sorry if you feel jipped or cheated, but I would have felt that way had I given you the answer when you had not correctly guessed it.

Question
Guest
No, no this can’t be so.
Not happening, I’m saying no.
This isn’t what I signed up for!
Reddest fire and burning more!
Ok, ok, what is it I can do?
Anything to make this not true.
No more, it’s too much to bear.
This is too hard, desperately unfair.
I understand, this is how it’s to be.
It is so much bigger, far beyond me.
