Life's Chapter of the Death of a Friend
A friend of mine was walking down the street.
How could he have known that him and death would meet.
He did nothing wrong.
He was just listening to a song.
Who would have known he would die?
Leaving everyone he knew to grieve and cry.
He didn't see the car.
The drunk driver swerved and sped then hit him so hard.
An ambulance got there,
All he could say was it's not fair.
The hospital said he would be ok.
Then the next day God took my friend away.
His funeral was the saddest day of my life.
Reality cut though me like a knife.
The casket was big bold and brown.
I cried so hard when they laid him in the ground.
Maybe we will meet again in another time.
But for now his life is no longer a part of mine.
Things have changed but still I'll keep alive.
The sweet and cheerful memories in that chapter of my life.

You Don'T / So I Don'T
You think you know me,
But you don't.
You look at me,
But you don't see the real me.
You talk to me,
But you don't hear me.
You say you care,
But you don't all you care about is your
precious reputation.
You say you don't believe the rumors
about me,
But then you make one up about me.
You tell me not to listen to what others
say about me,
But then you laugh with them.
You think you know what is going on,
But you don't and won't.
Because another thing you don't know is,
Because of all this
I DON'T WANT YOU
TO KNOW ME AT ALL.

Everything Changes
Time goes by
Day turns to night, Night turns to day.
Moon turns to sun, Sun turns to moon.
Darkness turns to light,
Light turns to darkness.
Children turn to teens,
Teens become adults.
Poor become rich, Rich become poor.
New become old,
Old becomes forgotten.
Happy become sad, Sad become happy.
Laughter turns to tears,
Tears turn to laughter.
Love turns to hate, Hate turns to love.
Lonely become popular,
Popular become lonely.
Everything Changes!!

2002 Graduation has come
The time has come to say goodbye.
Goodbye to our teachers, classmates, and friends.
Goodbye to homework that seemed to never end.
Goodbye school we've known for three years.
For graduation day is near.
It's hard to believe it's finally here.
I waited for this day to come and now that it's here.
I want to turn around and run.
Because graduating means.
Leaving everyone and everything we've known.
And going into the unknown.
Will we all be OK. Will I reach my goals?
I Will I make it in this world?
Where will I be 10 years from now?
Will I have a happy life and family?
I don't know but I do know.
As I walk across the stage with my diploma.
I say goodbye class of 2002.
And I realize with tears in my eyes,
CLASS OF 2002 WE HAD THE TIME OF OUR LIFES!
