POEMS
THEY DIDN'T UNDERSTAND...
They didn't understand you were my best
friend,
And when God came and took you I
thought it was the
end.
They didn't understand why I
cried that you
were
gone,
They didn't understand that I couldn't
carry
on.
If they only knew the hurt I felt
inside,
If they only knew how I missed you by
my side.
You helped me through the tough
times,
Your love had kept me strong.
You gave me faith that carried me,
On a road that was so long.
You were right there by my side,
They didn't have a clue.
I never would have come this far,
If it hadn't been for you.
Now you're just a memory,
held deep
inside my
heart.
And I'll keep you there forever,
Though we're so far apart.

I NEVER KNEW...
When I was young and just a child,
I laid awake alone at night while you
were running
wild.
I wondered when you'd come home to kiss
me
goodnight,
I'd wonder when I'd see you so I could
hold you
tight.
If I only knew I'd have begged you just
to
stay,
I would have held you tight so you
couldn't go
away.
I loved you more than anything and I
know you loved
me too,
And I never knew in time I'd be so much
like
you.
I never knew in time that the pain
would soon
pass,
And I never knew in time the memories
would
last.
I missed you when you were here and
when we were
apart,
I missed you so much I think it broke
my heart.
I never knew in time these feelings
would be
true,
And I never knew in time that I wished
I never knew.

ALL I CAN DO...
The sun's shining bright today,
I wanted to laugh, I had to cry.
All I could do not to hold it all
in,
Was to look at the trees and the
sky.
It gave such a feeling of goodness,
I no longer felt any pain,
And all my sadness disapeared,
How I can't explain.
Sometimes I sit and wonder,
If life is all worthwhile.
Then I think of my past and how I am
now,
And all I can do is smile. :)

SOMEONE...
I think about love alot,
What I have and what I've got...
Someone who holds me when I cry,
Someone who'll never say goobye.
Someone who cares and holds me
tight,
Someone to kiss when we say
goodnight.
Somene who's there through pain and
sorrow,
Someone who's there through each
tomorrow.
Someone who sticks by you till the
end,
Someone to call your very best
friend.
Someone who's loyal, precious and
true,
Someone to say I love you too.
...I think about love alot,
It's what I have and what I've got.

JUST LIKE
YOU...
I walked down the street today
And I
saw
you walk right by,
I turned around to look at you
There were teardrops in your eyes.
I knew what you were going through
cause I had been there too,
It wasn't very long ago
I had been like you.
Your clothes were torn and tattered
But they were all you had,
It looked like you'd been battered
It made me feel so sad.
If you could just forget
The sadness and the pain,
If someone were around
So you could just explain.
I wish that I could help you
But I saw you walk right by,
I turned around to look at you
I just wished you asked me why.
|
COULD HAVE BEEN...
I thought about you today
And I had to smile,
Although it seems like yesterday
I haven't seen you in awhile.
I wonder if you think of me
And does it make you sad,
All the things that we've been
through
The good times and the bad.
A day doesn't go by that you don't cross
my mind
Or sadness fills my heart,
I can't believe the pain and sorrow
That tore us both apart.
I wish we had another chance to see what
loves about,
To forget the past and yesterday
And try and work things out.
But I know deep in my heart
It's just not meant to be,
But I'll think of how it could have
been
If you were here with me.

MY FRIEND GOD...
I looked up in the sky today
I saw something very odd,
It was a vision I never saw before
It was my friend God.
I felt the tears roll down my face
As he looked me in the eye,
I saw such love and caring
That it made me want to cry.
The taste of my teardrops
Sent shivers down my spine,
Especially when I realized
The teardrops weren't mine.
I heard the sound of thunder,
The smell of flowers filled the air,
I knew that I was safe
Cause God was standing there.
I looked up in the sky once more
And I saw something very odd,
Open arms held out for me,
The open arms of God.

REMEMBER WHEN...
It happened many years ago I still remember
when.
I stated drinking and smoking pot that's how
it all began.
The drinking became a habit, I did it day and night.
I thought that no one noticed and everything
was right.
I began doing coke, that's when the trouble
started.
The love of my family slowly soon
departed.
It wasn't till the crack, the drug that took
me to the ground.
I did it with anyone or with no one else
around.
It took me to the streets, I sold my body for the dope.
And the more that I did of it the more I
couldn't cope.
It put me in the hospital, it put me in
jail.
My family let me stay there as I cried out
for bail.
I didn't have a place to live, a place to
call my own.
I didn't have a friend in sight, I was all
alone.
It made me very angry, It made me very
mad.
It even made me lonely, It also made me
sad.
I hurt the ones I loved the most, It tore
them all apart.
I sat and watched my mother as I was ripping
out her heart.
I hate you my addiction It's time to go
away.
Your time is done here, it's over now.
THERE"S NOTHING LEFT TO SAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
