IT'S IN THE VALLEYS I GROW
-Written by Jane Eggleston-
Sometimes life seems hard to bear,
Full of sorrow, trouble and woe
It's then I have to remember
That it's in the valleys I grow.
If I always stayed on the mountain top
And never experienced pain,
I would never appreciate God's love
And would be living in vain.
I have so much to learn
And my growth is very slow,
Sometimes I need the mountain tops,
But it's in the valleys I grow.
I do not always understand
Why things happen as they do,
But I am very sure of one thing.
My Lord will see me through.
My little valleys are nothing
When I picture Christ on the cross
He went through the valley of death;
His victory was Satan's loss.
Forgive me Lord, for complaining
When I'm feeling so very low.
Just give me a gentle reminder
That it's in the valleys I grow.
Continue to strengthen me, Lord
And use my life each day
To share your love with others
And help them find their way.
Thank you for valleys, Lord
For this one thing I know
The mountain tops are glorious
But it's in the valleys I grow!

As the sun sets along the the ocean
I look to the sky and see the moon and stars
and make a wish for them to watch over u as u sleep
though we cant be
togther
they are my angels watchin over u
bringing u peaceful sweet dreams
of me
for I know they will watch over u
each other so look into the nite sky
and see we are as one under the nite sky
we are both lookin at the nite sky
wishin on the same bright star
sendin our love over the nite sky to one
another
wishin peace as we lay our heads down for a peaceful slumber
with
the moon and stars shining bright
like a beacon in the nite leadin us to
each others arms in our dreams
sleep peaceful my love for I will be there
soon in ur arms

'One of my favorite poems is:
Good Things Come To Those That Wait
It was written by a good friend of mine and I edited it a little.'
Good
Things Come To Those That Wait
"They say good things come to those
that wait,
Well i have waited long enough,
Iits time for me to put everything at stake.
I will do what I got to do,
Say what I got to say,
To be happy, to be with you,
You are a part of me,
And have been since way back when,
It feels like you know me better than I know myself sometiems.
I have waited my whole life, for a true friend.
I guess the rest were just a stepping stone to something better.
So keep you head up and look to the sky.
I'll alway be by your side.
We got each other and we'll stick to that.
When you are down I'll be there,
And when I am down, I will put down my pride,
And let you in to help me through.
This is all so new to me,
Never have I felt this way,
But I will be ok.
This is the begining of something completely new.
When you need me,
Call my name,
I will be right there by your side,
So keep your head up,
Keep your faith,
Stay true,
And I will to."

"I
talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again
I stop to think at a wishing well
my thoughts send me on a carousel
Here I am standing on my own
not a motion from the telephone
I know not a reason why
solitudes a reason to die
Just you wait and see
as school life is a
It is a woken dream
aren't you feeling alone?
I guess its just another
I guess its just another
I guess its just another night alone
Now as I walk down the street
I need a job just to sleep in sheets
buying food every once in a while
but not enough to purchase a smile
A tank of gas is a treasure to me
I know now that nothing is free
I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again
Just you wait and see
as school life is a
it is a woken dream
aren't you feeling alone?
I guess its just another
I guess its just another
I guess its just another night alone"

"Steering at the high hour of three and all I can
do is think and envision you sitting next to me,
listening to the love songs on the radio,
knowing that I don't want nothing if I aint got you
and praying you don't take your love away
We all make mistakes
As all the songs play at their elevated pitch,
I feel an urge at my core that releases all types of sensations unconfined
there's no way to disguise the true emotions of love"

Shiver
by bAbIbUnNi
"When I'm alone in my room,
I shiver to the thought that
You and me may be no more.
When I hera the phone ring,
I look up hoping that
When I answer, I'll hear your voice.
When I'm dreaming at night,
I shiver to the sight of your face
Knowing i'm not being held by your arms.
When I hear your name,
I think to myself that
You're not here with me.
When I think about love,
I think about my relationship with you
Hoping it never ends..."

SAD BUT HAPPY
I'm
sad because my aunt died.
I'm sad because soliders are dying everyday in Iraq for no reason.
I'm sad because people are out there killing each other.
I'm sad because there are so many homeless people out there on the
street.
I'm sad because some teenage girls think a baby is the answer.
I'm sad because there are so many unhappy people in this world.
I'm sad.
I'm happy because I have a family that loves me and friends like Piggy.
I'm happy because Miguel is there for me -in any time of way.
I'm happy because there is AA.
I'm happy because kids are being returned to their parents safely.
I'm happy because we're getting closer to finding a cure for juvenile
diabetes.
I'm happy because there are so many good people in this world.
I'm sad but I'm happy."
THOUGHTS: This one is the one that touched me
the most. I mean I could go into detail of all my sads and happys,
but the world is a place where we all have been put until we all are
called unto a better a place. :)

The
Doll
I sit here
lonely,
all by myself.
I feel like a doll,
laid to rest
upon a shelf.
All sad
and lonely
the doll sits
never to be played with
or loved again.
but now i come down from the shelf,
with a little help
from my friends.
And now i'm not lonely-
I'm played with again.

2
Years
It's been two years now
Since we first met
Never will I
Be able to forget
The love we have shared
And how much we've bared
To each other.
It's been two years now
The best 2 years of my life
And soon I hope
To become your wife.
It's been two years now
And I love you still.......

If you want me iI'lljust ask for this

let me love you
just don't rip my heart apart.

TOO MANY THOUGHTS
Too many thoughts on my mind,
not ready to let go of yesterday.
too much snow on the ground,
covering up the darkness inside.
listening to your thoughts as they were mine,
looking at you like you belongs me.
everything was all fine,
until i realized the truth of all the lies inside.
the clouds are closing in,
so hard to breath.
memories of laughters are running through my mind,
maybe they're better forgotten.
maybe it was never meant to be..
too many thoughts on my mind,
but i think i'll be ok, i think i'll be better,
better off without you......

Love makes you stupid
Love makes you stupid,
You're the Bees Knees,
Kiss Me Please,
Fly High above the Trees!
Whoopsie Daisie,
Call me Lazy,
I'm Just Crazy for My Baby!
Lovely and Fair,
Don't go There,
Oh My Gosh Love your Hair!
Everything about you See,
All you are is Amazing to Me!

"Life is like a StoryBook"
Life is like a storybook
You hold the pen in your hand
It is up to you to write the story
If you chose to take the stand
The characters need to be chosen
The setting must take place
For your story book to be written
Be careful, it's hard to erase
For you are the author
Only you can decide your fate
To make it a happy ending
The responsibility is great
I will leave you on this note
Every morning is a fresh new page
Write each day with thought and care
Every day that you age

"Shut Up"
To let love replace all the hate
When time will reveal with love
If you really want to have it all
Keep it to yourself
Shut up
Keep it like a sercret
Because I don't care anymore

"I Can't"
tears,sorrows,stress
overwhelm me, i can't even rest
nightmares haunt me i can't think
my heart slowly starts to sink
all the fuck yous and shit
those words and my feelings don't seem to fit
lonliness and hurt have gotten me no where but here
stuck in this cage of fear
fear that i might hurt you
fear that i might take revenge
fear that i might let you know how it feels to be broken down
luckily for you you're not around
i feel suffocation coming over my soul
it seems to drown my body whole
i can't the pressure
i can't take the pain
i can't take the fall
maybe death would be good cuz i can't take this all

"One Day"
One day there will be no war
No hurt or complete sadness
No tears to shed while lying in bed
Or all of the political madness
One day no person will be homeless
No family without a meal
And maybe we should look into
Just how poor we feel
One day every child will go to school
There will be no abuse
And maybe things we normally throw away
Will be of some use
One day it could happen
And you could be the one
To win everything
That this world hasn't won

"When Will It Stop?"
When will the drinking and driving stop?
We see the crosses and the flowers and other small bright things,
We give cards to the family members of the loss,
But when will it stop?
Are the flowers and the crosses just road decorations?
We see them at the side of the road,
But some of us just ignore them,
And don't care what might happen to them.
Do we get it through our heads when it's to late,
Or when we lose a closes friend or a family member?
So much life is lost,
But we do not care.
I've seen to many reports of drunk related accidents.
On the news and in the papers,
And seen many Truth ads everywhere of what drinking can do.
Will I have the same sin?
Will I get drunk or get into a drunken friend's car?
What is my future?

a bit of time ...a sweet mused lag...
something to watch like a puppy's wag,
i sit while smoke curls up waiting
for the smoothe groove
plotting a thread to improve my moods...
its sweeter then and wished would wish
the happier times really
stay happier this way...

The World Just Imagine
Imagine what you could do if you just tried,
How you would feel if you just let the idea die.
Imagine what the world would be,
If everyone helped and the problems they could see.
Imagine the love you would actually feel,
The hole in your heart would soon heal.
Imagine and just think,
Who would be the missing link?
Imagine no diseases, no colds,
Being young and never growing old.
Imagine birds, trees, and butterflies,
And a world where no child cries.
Imagine the snow that lands on the ground,
The love be which people would be so tightly bound.
Imagine all of these things,
If they were true what to the world would they bring?

The The One
Why do I feel so lost,
so alone,
When I have all of these people wanting me to come back home.
They tell me they love me,
and miss me they do.
But yet I still haven't found you.
The one who holds the key, and will love me for me.
The one who, when I'm stressing out, I look at and their eyes so deep and full of meaning, washes everything away.
The one who does things with out being asked,
and doesn't push me away in front of his friends.
The one who everytime I think I find,
just lets me down and plays with my mind.
I hate not knowing who you are,
but what hurts worse is when I think I do,
But it's never You.
