Veronica Phillips Poem
A normal day at school
turned into a nightmare
No one knew what to say or what to do
As I watched the news
with my two best friends
I knew nothing would
ever be the same.
We all cried, because the pain was so unbearable
We didn't know what to do
or how to help - so we prayed.
I know I am lucky to be here,
and I am also lucky that
all of the people I love are safe.
What happened on September 11th, 2001
changed my life, but it also
opened my eyes.
Everything you do, Lord
has a reason, a purpose
and even though at first
I didn't want to except that,
now I do.
I love you, Lord
and my life is in your hands.

Veronica Phillips Poem
I stuck with you
through thick and thin
I ignored the rumors
and denied the lies
I thought that I loved you,
and thats all that mattered
But, even though
I stuck with you
through thick and thin,
Your the chicken sh&&
who gave up in the end.

Veronica Phillips Poem
We were in love,
nothing else mattered,
until on day you said it was over
you didn't explain why,
you never did say,
you just let me wonder,
and I did every single day
until today.
I gave up on you today
which shouldn't be a shock,
I gave up on you, and now I'm free
I'm free to be the person that I used to be-
only better because it's the real me -
without you.

Veronica Phillips Poem
I have to wake up everyday
and face my fears,
which are my peers.
They do whatever they please,
because everyone says that these are the best years of our lives.
They smoke the pot,
They drink the beer,
They have the sex,
They have no fear.
They have been pulled under,
atleast that's what I hear.
When they come to school after doing these things
they brag and brag-it makes them cool, or so they think.
Their brains are starting to rot,
Their memories are starting to fade,
Their being pulled each and every way,
their parents think it's just a phase -
A teenage thing that comes with age.
A couple of their friends have stopped using, a few might have even died.
None of this wakes them up, and maybe
one night when their partying they decide to drink and drive -
Now four people have died...The one that survived will always have to deal with it-
that her and her friends not only killed themselves,
but they also killed the woman in the other car, all
because they were having some fun and decided to drink and drive.

Veronica Phillips Poem
At first I wanted to die
and it stayed that way
for quite some time.
I didn't want
to wake up to see
another day,
at just the thought
that I had turned you gay.
I don't blame you,
I blame myself
I should have known
All along.

Veronica Phillips Poem
All of a sudden it was over -
just like that.
One day we were in lvoe,
and the next day we were not.
You told me you loved me
everyday,
but slowly it stopped,
as you began to push me away.
I think of you
everyday,
the memories don't want to go away.
What can I do to make it stop?
The pain is too great -
from now on the
door to my heart
will forever be locked.

Veronica Phillips Poem
It's supposed to be a secret,
but everybody knows.
I wish I would have
realized sooner,
but I just didn't know.
I didn't want
to believe it,
so I held it all inside
you were everything to me,
and then you left me to die.
I still love you
more than you could know,
but right now your gone,
and I'm left all alone.

Veronica Phillips Poem
I'm sufficating
Why wont you just let me go?
I tried to let you go, but
your still holding on
I don't want to try again,
I've already moved on.
