Money Can'T Buy Happiness

asleep in front of tv, 
understand the full

in the body. Blessed

Are not those you want to hear.

And Another Thing
Well and you can't believe in superstition

My Creator
Embryo formed.
Fetus became.
A girl baby I am.

My creator I do not know.  Procreation states that ovum and sperm conceives.  My question is how does this evolve – from God?

We are told there are...

I see another overlapping, 
As I keep removing the laps one by one,

We achieve one goal,...

Her heart has just said that

In a life that she would
To a certain extent do without.

To a certain extent we have no love, 
Angry words spat can never be withdrawn.
To a certain extent one may never smile again,
No joy, no sense of humor.
To a certain extent insecurity strikes,
