First Impressions
Fill in the blanks according to your situation.
First impressions last a lifetime.
  I've met people all my life, but
   When I was old enough to realize
    Who you are to me, you gave me
     An impression that stayed
      Branded in my memory.
As I grew up loving the thought
  That "You were the greatest
   Person in the world"; clinging to
    Your every word and putting
     You on a pedestal. 
Several years later, A "Wise Owl"
  Once told me That you are
   Self-centered and egotisticle
    And with further explanation,
     I understood, but refused
      To believe it.  I used to think
       That you were my hero,
        And the smartest person
         That ever walked the land.
But now that I'm an adult,
  I'm beginning to see you
   In a different light.  I am
    Slowly realizing that I was
     Wrong, for not listening to
      That "Wise Owl" and for
       Believing my first impression.
I should have listened far more
  Than I did.  Now, it is hard
   To retrain myself into believing
    My realizations, when my
     First impression is fighting
      So hard to stay alive in me.
Why have you treated me like
  Your love child all these years,
   When you were only hiding
    The "real" you?  Why? 
You put on an act all this time,
  Only to laugh at me in the end. 
   All those "heart-felt" emotions
    And love you claim to have
     For me, are all and only
      Mere words to you. 
It seems only natural for you
  To let me down.  You seem to
   Get a kick out of hurting me
    And bringing tears to my eyes.
With that, I know that you never
  Really loved me, Yet, you continue
   To give me gifts.  I do not
    Understand.  I realize now,
     That I have been the fool to
      Ever believe My first impression
       Of you.
Why __________?  Why?  Why
  Do you hurt me?  Why can't you
   Just love me?  If you would only
    Love me, I'll do my best
     To reflect that love.  Love and
      Affection is not a character flaw
       For a _____________ and a
        ______________.

In Loving Memory
It hurt me so much to see you
  Laying there in your coffin.  It
   Took everything I had to hold
    Back my tears.  You were so
     Good to me, and so many
      Times you inspired me to
       Enrich my life with your
        Peaceful, fun-loving ways.
GOD knows just how much
  I love you and that my love
   For you will go on to
    Eternity's end.  I look
     Forward to the day That
      GOD will allow us to be
       Together, and from the
        Very moment I see you,
         I will smile and once again,
          My lonely heart will be
           Happy. 
You were so wonderful, you always
  Knew how to make me laugh
   And smile, and make me feel
    Good about myself again. 
When I felt that everyone was
  Against me and the whole world
   Was on my shoulders, you
    Stood by me and took my side. 
To me, your kisses were my
  Heart-felt treasures.  I want
   You to know, that you are
    Very much loved and will
     Always be missed by me,
      And all those you leave
       Behind today. 
When the Gates of Heaven open
  For you, may the LORD'S
   Loving Arms embrace you,
    And may HE Welcome you
     Into HIS Heavenly Kingdom. 
It hurts me terribly, to know
  That you are now Gone from
   The ones who love you.
I Love You __________, may you
  Rest in peace!
