| NIGHTFALL I need so much the quiet of your love After the day's loud strife; I need your calm all other things above After the street of life I crave the haven that in your dear heart lies, After all toil is done, I need the star shine of your heavenly eyes, After the day's great sun. CHARLES HANSON TOWNE |
| A Forever Friend I am the center of attention, Then I am alone. Do I have any real friends? I don't think so. Some may claim to be, But I know they're not, For if they were, They'd be able to see how much pain I hold Inside my heart and soul. I lay my hurt in front of them, Yet they fail to see my cry for help. Oh, I play and pretend to feel good, But inside I'm torn apart, My soul scarred, my skin tender, my voice gone My mind lost, my body numb, my heart broken. Who will stay by my side? Who will be there for me To wipe the tears from my eyes? I need someone to be here with me forever, Never to leave me again. That's all I'm asking, For a forever friend. Is it too much? by Sarah Anne Snow |

| THE ONLY WAY TO HAVE A FRIEND The only way to have a friend Is to be one yourself; The only way to keep a friend Is to give from that wealth. For friendship must be doublefold, Each one must give his share Of feelings true if he would reap The blessings that are there. If you would say, "He is my friend," Then nothing else will do But you must say, "Iam his friend," And prove that fact be true. AUTHOR UNKNOWN |
| IF I CAN STOP ONE HEART FROM BREAKING If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain; If I can ease one life the aching, Or cool one pain, Or help one lonely person Into happiness again I shall not live in vain. EMILY DICKINSON |
| TELL HER SO Amid the cares of married strife In spite of toil and business life If you value your dear wife- Tell her so! When days are dark and deeply blue She has her troubles, same as you Show her that your love is true Tell her so! Don't act as if she's past her prime As tho' to please her were a crime If ever you loved her, now's the time- Tell her so! She'll return for each caress A hundred fold of tenderness, Hearts like hers were made to bless; Tell her so! You are hers and hers alone; Well you know she's all your own; Don't wait to carve it on a stone- Tell her so! Never let her heart grow cold Richer beauties will infold She is worth her weight in gold Tell her so! AUTHOR UNKNOWN |

| ERASERS Erasers are the nicest things! Of that there is no doubt. We write worng words. A few quick swipes- And big mistakes fade out. And you will find erasers, Of a very different kind, Extremely helpful, if you will try To bear these facts in mind: When you bump someone in a crowd, And almost knock her down, A soft "I'm sorry!" may bring smiles And rub out that old frown. Apologies, invariably, Obliterate mistakes; And three small words, "I love you!" Can erase the worst heartaches. AUTHOR UNKNOWN |
| Windows to the Soul In your eyes, I find comfort and peace, The treasure of an endless ocean of love lies in your soul, behind the windows that are the eyes Steve Vai |
