| Graduation Graduation day has come and gone We've said good-by to friends. Left with the unanswered question Will we ever see them again? We cry our tears. Just to hold memories. Though we knew each other for a short time We will never forget the past. We look to the future with Tear stained cheeks. What lies ahead is uncertain. What is certain is that we'll always be FRIENDS! |
| Dying You say you want to die Do you know how much that hurts? I've known you all my life. Please don't die. I love you to much to lose you Though if its your time to go Go. Don't haunt me in my worry. Just don't go by starvation. I know your depressed. I wish I could help But you won't let me near. Is there away For me to break through this barrier? When you go you will be missed. Is there time for me to say good-bye? I don't know anymore Everytime I pick up the phone I expect a call That you have died. When will that call come? Have you give up? Life won't be the same And thats a fact. |
| Disappointment In a child's face When he doesn't get the gift he wanted On a parents face when Their child has had a bad report card. On a sporty kids day When they're shut up inside. On the face of a teen When a goodnight kiss is too short. |
| Beyond the Tiger In the shadows of the night The tiger waits For the kill Silent in the woods She barely touches the ground. Leaves don't move under her. Muscles move under stripped fur She stands with her face to the moon, Listening for food Listening for the noises of her forest. Strength and silence along with claws Are her weapons Eveything fears her. The most power The most beauty Are hers. |
| In the Dark In the dark Little kids scream In the dark Shadows walk unseen Darkness Clouds the mind In the dark Light is gone I'm left with my nightmares and unknown dreams Will it ever be known What lives in the dark? I hope not We may not be ready to tackle Things that have grown Powerful and strong In the dark they lie in wait They cannot be seen Yet they can be felt. They're there when we sleep or sit in darkened room What they are I cannot tell They would hear me The voices and shadows of the dark. |
| Distain He asked you out To Homecoming He had told you how he felt. You accepted his offer Knowing these things That night all you could do was talk to your ex Leaving you date alone To watch! Then when you find out Your ex has a new girlfriend You run into the bathroom and cry. Yet again leaving your date alone to watch Now that he has broken up with his girlfriend You run to him Your old ex After teasing the hearts of others This is the third time now You two are going out Leaving the man who cares about you the most alone to watch The same boy you cried on Then left at the homecoming Why won't you pick the one The one who cares? |
| One Year After A day of attack A day of fear A day of not knowing What will happen next We watched them fall With tear stained faces The pain was real The shock deadening. Those images will stick with us In our minds Forever We'll watch the towers fall The disaster again replayed On T.V. The pain for many is a heavy burden A burden that cannot be lifted. |
| Door Mat Have I always been this blind? So blind that I could not see You trampleing me? I was your friend So I listened to all your problems From when the bully stole your toy To all your family problems In turn you would listen to me Now it seems your doing all the talking All I hear is you venting at me You complaining that I'm never around To hear your problems I've always been here But now you're pushing me away. All this nonsence about you being hurt by him Yet you stay with him. I hate to see you So far away It's your choice What will you chose? Him or your friends? |
