TITLE: THE NIGHT LOVE TOOK MY LIFE.

I remember it distinctly,
The night you caused this pain,
I remember it as the only night,
That my tears fell like rain,

I remember every detail,
Of the night you took my soul,
And you replaced it with nothing,
You left it as a gaping hole,

I remember the humidity,
Of that resented lounge room,
I remember how softly you took my hand.
And how it made my heart go "boom"

I remember the guilty look in your eyes,
That indicated something was wrong,
I remember the pity in your voice,
As you told me your love for me was gone,

I remember the smell,
Of your fragrant aftershave,
I remember the voice in my head,
Telling me to be brave,

I remember that my insides,
Felt like they were collapsing,
I remember the feeling,
That time was not ellapsing,

I remember how you worded it,
That our relationship was through,
And I remember that you told me,
There was another girl for you,

I remember how you left me,
With your head held up high,
And when I called out your name,
You just sighed a sympathetic sigh,

I remember what I thought,
After you had gone,
"How could I live without you"
You'd already been gone too long,

I took the rope,
From the garden shed,
And hung it high,
Above my bed,

I wrote this note,
That you've just read,
And placed the rope hoop,
Around my head,

I'm about to end,
All of this pain,
I'm about to end,
My tears, my rain,

But before I can do this,
I need the world to know,
That love was the weapon that killed me,
And this is my suicide note.

TITLE: A storm brewing.

I was in a boat out to sea,
The weather conditions were fine,
The sly was blue and crystal clear,
The sun on me did shine,

The boat bobbed along a little more,
And soon there came a cloud,
Extremely white it came along,
It was so big and proud,

The cloud seemed harmless for so long,
It stayed there overhead,
I foolishly ignored it,
While i did, the cloud mass spread,

It spread itself across the sky,
And turned menacingly grey,
But still i stupidly ignored it,
Thinking it would go away,

The longer i ignored the cloud,
The greyer it did get,
It then splashed out drops of rain,
And got my day all wet,

It quickly brew into a storm,
And threw my boat around,
The waves were huge and i got wet,
And the sky made thunder sounds,

The storm lasted a very long time,
But eventually moved on,
Now my sky is blue again,
And it's a calm sea i sail on.

TITLE: the physcological battle i have won.

I will not be apologetic,
When it's not my fault,
I will not argue with you,
Or accept your verbal assult,

I don't want to be forgiven,
When there's nothing i've done wrong,
I will not sing to your tune,
When i hate so much the song,

I will not speak the words,
You try to get me to say,
My dignity is a price,
That I will never ever pay,

I refuse to stand by meekly,
And watch you turn myself against me,
I refuse to succumb to the lies,
You try to get me to believe,

I refuse to feel guilty,
For things i haven't said and done,
Don't play mind games with me,
This is a battle i have won.

TITLE: DEAR FRIEND, WITH LOVE FROM ME.

Dear friend i know you're hurting,
I can see it in your eyes,
You say your heart is breaking
And your stomach's done in ties,

Dear friend i see you crying,
And it rips my heart in two,
I see your pain and suffering,
My sympathy goes to you,

Dear friend i hear you cursing,
And wishing life away,
But i promise life will get better,
More so with everyday,

Dear friend i feel you shaking,
As i hold you in my arms,
At this moment there's part of you missing,
That certain special charm,

Dear friend i feel your pain,
I need for you to see,
That everytime you cry these tears,
You take a part of me,

Dear friend please know i'm here for you,
To share some of your pain,
To be here for you when it's sunny,
And even when it rains,

Dear friend you need to know that,
These words they are the truth,
Not jsut to make you feel better,
Although i can offer you know proof,

Dear friend this letter must end now,
For i have said what i needed to say,
I am always here for you to talk to,
Whether the time be night or day.
the end
