Who am I?
Am I someone who cares, but doesn't care?
Someone who knows, but doesn't know?
Am I someone who is free, but isn't free?
Am I someone who succeeds, or doesn't
succeed?
Who am I?
I am just a peice of loose change,
who
goes from one pocket into another.
And in
between, I get tossed away,
and then I hide
into corners,
and go into little cracks,
where no one can reach me!
Who am I?
I am just a prisoner, who is trapped inside
myself.
I am someone who is scared.
Scared to set myself free.
Free to get hurt, again!
Who am I?
I am a scared and insecure child!
I am someone who needs and wants something
to hold on to, but can't find it!
Who am I?
I am someone who falls, over and over again.
And sometimes, I don't know how to pick
myself up, and start over.
Who am I?
I am someone who is scared to face the world
alone.
I am someone who needs someone to stand
beside me, and to catch me for when I do fall!
I am someone who needs someone to help me
get up again.
For one day I may fall, and never get up!
Who am I?
I am a lost child, ready to face the world,
but yet, not ready!
Heart to heart,
and hand to hand.
Together in church,
is a woman and man.
Friends and family
has come to see;
These two people in love,
together they'll be.
The flowers, the music,
and candlelights.
The magic of hope
is with them tonight.
The promise of Love
and faithfulness.
In the eyes of God
the priest will bless.
Two heart joined together
as one;
Their future as spouses
has now begun.
Alpha company is number one.
This I wrote and had it published in the
Patriot Newspaper, Sept. 6, 1990. It was sent to
the men with a Banner of Love. Now I dedicate to
all those who have served during the Gulf War!
Which when they're not working,
they can be lots of fun.
It's hard for some to really know,
why our men had to go.
We want peace in our world,
and not some war.
This one of the reasons,
our men left us for.
They have to prove a point,
to the people of Iraq.
That taking hostages is wrong,
and we want them back.
They invaded Kuwait,
without any concent.
So we back our men,
one hundred percent.
It's their job,
to make it right.
To follow orders,
with all their might.
It was hard for them,
to say goodbye.
To watch their love ones,
with tears in their eyes.
So they packed their gear,
and carried them away.
Saying, "Hey Babe,
I'll be back, someday!"
They work awfully hard,
to pull together.
What they're doing now,
will be remember, forever!
So here is to you guys,
who we love the best.
You are the ones we're looking for,
among the rest.
From the ones who love you!
(The A. company women)
by: Jessica Lewis
The sun is hot, the pain is real.
So much hurt inside, almost impossible to
heal.
I miss you today, I'll miss you tomorrow.
Only you could end this aching sorrow.
You had your reasons, we'll never understand.
Why you took your life with your own hand.
With that I will leave this in mind.
You'll be missed more than you'll ever know,
and your memory will never be let go.
Joshua was a very personal close friend of
my family. He was also one of my students. Josh
loved coming into the video store and harrassing
me out of pure fun, while I was working during
the weekends. He was a down right good looking,
17 year old boy. From Richford, Vt. On August
13, 1998, He loaded up a shot gun, went inside
his bedroom, and shot himself in the heart.
Rumor had it, he was on coke, and stoled his
father's paycheck. His mother threw him out of
the house. But he came back, and took his life.
Well, how many of us are in need of help? One
way or another, each of our souls are reaching
out and feeling lost. Please, don't forget to
tell your friends and family how much you care.
Love them unconditionally! It may be the last
time you'll ever see them again!!!!

love you. All you can do is be someone who

I've learned that it's not what you have
in
your life but who you have in your life
that
counts.

for
about fifteen minutes. After that, you'd
better know something.
I've learned that you shouldn't compare

and
steamy a relationship is at first, the
passion fades and there had better be
something else to take its place.

who
do what has to be done when it needs to
be

with what types of experiences you've had and

I've learned that your family won't
always be
there for you. It may seem funny,

friend
is, they're going to hurt you every

but we are responsible for who we become.
I've learned that sometimes when my
friends
fight, I'm forced to choose sides
even when I

consequences,

Love is
...Something that never dies.
Love is always there, never uncertain.
Love is not only loving,
but being loved.
For if you feel that
you are being loved,
your love becomes stronger.
It grows until it consumes your whole life.
One should never say, "I once loved you".
Because love is never a one time affair.
Only physical love is such the case.
Not true love.
True love is always there, never uncertain.
If you have been shot down,
as the saying goes.
Thank God that you are alive and not dead.
For such a love was not true.
And not being true,
It would never have lasted.
If it leaves you sad and with memories.
If it makes you uncertain of the future.
If it seems as if the end of the world is near.
You must live each day to its fullest extent;
Hoping the pain goes away;
Praying that your true love will feel as strong,
if not stronger in loving you.
Love is something that you never want to shut your heart to;
For if you shut your heart to love,
You shut your eyes to life.
And shutting your heart to love,
You become a plant.
And not the Supreme creature,
that God intended you to be.
