Shalia

she was here and now she,s gone
but she left me strength to carry on
her wisdom and strength i will always see
i fell her spirit all around me
she guides me though each brand new day
her words of wisdom
i will always say
she,s always here in my heart
although this life she had to depart
a different world
a different life
where there is no stress and strife
shes good as gold
a friend to me
and in my heart she will always be

A Friend

a friend that was always there.
one who seemed to care.
he loved his animals and people to.
god was his maker that he knew.

strong in love and strong in life.
Until a fire took his life.

gone from earth though he might be
i know god has set him free.

Halloweens

though the dark cold castle i do roam.
Terrified to be alone. cobwebs hanging from the corners on the wall.
dirt, dust and rank smells in the hall.
the floor begins to creek my heart beats faster and faster.
i hear high pitched screaming in another room.
scared to take another step. i stand frozen in  fright.
i see blood dripping down the hall.
i swart to scream. mom walks in the room and says
wake up girl its only a bad dream .
Dolt go to sleep on Halloweens

My Little Angel

my little girl, so precious and sweet.
my little angel god gave her to me
always there when i need her most

i,m never alone. she,lm always be there 
my little angel seems to care.

she got me though some really rough times
my little angels light seems to shine

though thick and thin  she will always be
my little angel god gave her to me.

A Friend

i love you shalia, why can,t you see? you didn,t need to leave me.
a friend you were so tried and true. i will never have a friend as good as you.

you were only here for such a short period of time.
to young in life to die you see.  sometimes life seems
cruel to me.  why must it happen?  why must it be?
why did god take you away from me?

Pain

what i see i don,t want to see.
sometimes life really hurts me.

when i,m all alone and no one is around
can i even hear there sound?

sometimes i wonder if friends are really friends?
will i ever see them again?
will they be there when i need them most 
i don,t think so
 for i am there host
feed on me and treat me bad
there life must be really bad.

Brooks

a friend that was always there.
one who seemed to care.
he loved his animals and people to.
god was his maker that he know.

strong in love and strong in life ,
untill a fire took his life.
gone from earth though he might be.
i know god has set him free.

Religions

learn from all religions. let love be your guide. are we all that different on the 
inside. we are so different yet all the same. as long as there is love and light
that will set you free. so listen to your conicous. let love be your guide
no matter what your religion as long as love is on the inside.
is anyone right? is anyone wrong? maybe i dance to a different song.
maybe i don,t see things the way you do. doe,s that make me strange?
different from you?

Drugs

i am only two years old
why can,t mommy see
everything she,s doing
is really hurting me.

the cops came for her late last night
she was doing drugs 
you know that was not right

now who will tuck me in, and read
me stories at night

who will give me kisses and
tell me it,s alright

who will be there for me
and make nightmares go away.

it won,t be my mommy because
she,s in jail to stay.
