You don't feel this way written 3/30/99
I lay in the grass and look at the clouds,
to see what shapes i'll find
But all i can see is your face,
i can't get you out of my mind
sometimes i look at you,
and want you to hold me
but that will never happen again,
you don't feel this way for me
you don't mean to hurt me,
but it hurts seeing you every day
but i'm not going to tell you,
i know you don't feel this way
it will hurt even more,
when i have to see you with he
but you won't care,
because you'll be happy i'm sure
you used to be considerate,
of the way you made others feel
you were there for all my broken hearts,
you assured me that they'd heal
you were always there to comfort me,
you made everything okay
you know i'd like to be more than friends,
but i know you don't feel this way
when you look my way and smile,
i remember when we had more
it felt so right when i was in your arms,
things wiil never be like before
i remember one night,
when you were comfortingme
you gave me a hug,
and i began to see
you meant more to me than just a best friend,
my feelings for you were strong
but you were with my other best friend,
so what i was feeling was wrong
i'd never told anyone,
the way i felt for you
then i found out you liked me,
all my dreams had come true
i waited so long(a year!!),
then i got my chance
i was happy with you,
all we were missing was romance
who were you thinking about,
when you were kissing me
and when you looked my way,
who's face did you want to see
i tried to break it off,
but you wouldn't let me go
you were killing me inside,
but i made sure it didn't show
and after everything that we've been through,
you're throwing our friendship away
i feel so abandoned and hurt,
but i know you don't feel this way

I can never do anything right
noone wants me in their sight
I hate my looks for one
Im a screw up in school and i feel so dumb
growing up was really sad
I had a big drunk for a dad
I hate myself i hate my life
mabie i should use a knife
slice my wrists or cut my throat
to the people who cared leave a note
I have all these thoughts in my head
too many tears i have shed
why cant my life be nice and simple
most peoples problems are getting a pimple
its not normal all these tears
my whole life was filled with fears
will he be nice, or will he be mean
will he be drunk or nice and clean
I cant stand this daily pain
all this drama am i sane
My feelings all go right down on paper
as day to day my hate gets greater
Why cant i just live with my friends
for in their house love never ends
I get put down so encredibly much
I sit here and long for gods great touch
noone believes how much i grieve
why so hard for them to believe
mabie this pain is my fate
I dont blame anyone else, it is i that i hate

Good-bye

Tears stream down your face for the one that you loved,
And you wonder if he is watching from up above.
His always loving eyes and his gentle warming smile
And his words of encouragement made everything worthwhile.
Again and again the question reiterates through your mind.
" Why him? Why not the evil you so often find?"
What did he do so wrong that made him deserve this?
You would think he would be rewarded for his good instead of being lowered into an abyss.
He was loved by many and touched the hearts of all he knew.
But now the sky has a different color. It is gray and no longer blue
Your heads hang low in sorrow and fear.
You wonder what will become of you since he is no longer here.
Some are incensed at GOD for taking him away.
Others are infuriated with themselves for not visiting yesterday.
That reminds me of a saying. I am not sure where it is from.
"Live each day to it's fullest, for yesterday is gone and tomorrow may never come."
Dedicated to my grandfather, Jack Engel

A Killer in The Shadows
There's a killer in the shadows,
waiting for you to pass by
You'll never see it coming,
untill you're eye to eye
It creeps up on you,
when you're expecting it the least
It's a heartless,
fearless, merciless beast
It will tear you up inside,
but at first it feels good
It feels as though the world is safe,
and everything is good
But remember, there's a killer in the shadows,
he's expecting you to come
He'll claim your heart for his own,
and make your body feel numb
This killer unmasked,
is a monster called love
And in the end you'll be hurt,
by everything it does.

I'm Sorry
-Dre - GGgirl4314@aol.com
I'm so sorry
It's all my fault
you must hate me
now that we've grown apart
I was afraid of pain
I was afraid of love
I must have been insane
to pass up your sweet love
Why didn't you force me to see
that I was missing out
on what could've been between you and me
I'm sorry, but I don't know what love's about
Well now I'm paying for my mistakes
and you've slipped through my fingers like sand
the tears I've cried could fill up lakes
I'd give my life just to hold your hand
I'm sorry I didn't understand you
I didn't know what you were about
I wish I would've stuck to you like glue
and I'm sorry I'll never find out

You are an inspiration to us all
For what you've shown to us
Courage, heart, and passion for life
Reminders of God's gift
We'll keep these memories forever close
A guide to find our way
Life's challenges will never come and go
Without the thought of you each day
We will remember your love, caring, and endless sharing
They will never leave our minds
You've been so good to each of us
So we will never let you go
Left behind in our hearts
Is a little bit of you
It will never leave and always grow
Just like our love for you
Take with you the thought of us
Always by your side
I know where you are going and someday soon
We will all join you there
So as you sit there under that waterfall
You have talked so much about
Save us a place there next to you
And we will all do some catching up.

Everyone saw beauty, no one saw the pain
An adolescent lonely
her cries unheard to all
silence has become her destiny
heaven answering her call
she's lived a life imprisoned
never knowing the feeling of being free
never learning it all on her own
her world would never be easy
Her prayers never seemed to be answered
her wishes fell from the stars
her dreams shattered into a million pieces
her fantasies floated afar
her endless tears that showered
the angry thunders that came
the rushing frustration hidden within her
the disguise of her familiar name
the smile she used to hide it all
the laughter that seemed so real
the distress that lived on and on
the pain she could only feel
her yearning for attention
her wanting for some love
her earnest requests to the Lord
her benediction to the heavens above
her faith was so strong
her vibrancy filled any room
her life however, was all a lie
then the truth sent her to her tomb
Then finally it was all revealed
and the world finally knew
that her life was never near perfect
so much had she gone through
this jubilant little angel
that everyone seemed to believe
now lay in her coffin
with saffron rosebuds stemmed with bold emerald leaves
The priest dressed in black
the darkness all around
the pouring of the rain
Weeping, the only sound
In the Name of the Father and the Son
she's last blessed
all those who knew her
pay their last respects
her casket is shut
they take one last look
the priest ends it with Amen
and closes his little black book
now silence has become golden
so much is heard and felt through the air
their tears become the rain showers
the thunder, their despair
and all those who loved her
shocked and surprised
never knew
only now did they realize
that all the sunshine
covered her tears of rain
everyone saw beauty
no one saw the pain
Sweet Lyric 1998

OUR SINGLE EAGLE IN THE SKY
YOU SAID NOBODY LOVED YOU
YOU THOUGHT NOBODY CARED
IF ONLY YOU KNEW
HOW MANY WERE THERE.
YOU CRIED OUT FOR HELP,
JUST NOT LOUD ENOUGH
SO HOW WERE WE TO KNOW
YOUR LIFE WAS SO ROUGH
WHAT DID WE DO
WHAT DID WE SAY
TO MAKE YOU TAKE YOUR PRECIOUS LIFE AWAY?
YOUR CRAZY SMILE
BROUGHT JOY TO ARE LIFES
BUT NOW ALL WE HAVE ARE TEARS IN OUR EYES
A FRIENDSHIP LIKE YOURS
WAS TRULY VERY RARE
NOW THAT YOUR GONE
OUR LIFES FEEL SO BARE
WE HOPE YOU WATCH OVER US
AND KEEP US SAFE TOO
WORDS CAN'T EXPRESS
HOW MUCH WE ALREADY MISS YOU.
WHENEVER WE SEE YOU
IN OUR EYES AND CRY
WE'LL ALWAYS BE THINKING
"THERE GOES OUR SINGLE EAGLE
FLYING IN THE SKIES".

This poem was writtten by ?
It's dedicated to Grandaddie
When i was seven you passed away i missed very much
all the times we spent together were gone in a rush.
We will never go to the park again and play were they flowers were colored and the grass was lush
I asked my mommy when you'd be back and if i'd seen after you go
My mommy said you'd wouldn't be back and the answer will be no
For one day and one night i wondered where you were and how you'd gotten there
I looked up at the stars in the sky and felt your soul in the air
I remembered all the good times we shared, and how much i loved you too
and all i could wish was to be with you
Now it's nightime time and i pray to the heavens and god
"take care of my granddaddie" and i cried then i gave my head a nod
"he was always brave" I said almost in a wisper now
"God just tell my how granddaddie died and if his soul is saved"
The next day i felt really sick i sweated and i cryed
Mommy my head hurts and my throat feels dry
The doctor didn't know what was the matter with me and i would be ok
but he was wrong and i suffered then died the very next day
from the heavens i saw my little sister my dad and mommy too
they were in pain and suffered just as i my soul cried i love you
jessie don't worry i'll be ok, daddy don't cry for me, mommy don't blame yourself you didn't kill me.
My little sister will never know me,
my mom will always cry then after it was too late they found out why i died.
I had a kind of cancer but it was hard to cure,
they said it was deadly and they didn't know about
it at the time of my death they said they were un-sure.
But now i will be safe and sound it will me be with my granddaddie.
it will be me him and a great big park and thats the way it will always be.

A Great Year Wasted
I spent last year thinking of you and no one else but you.
I had no time for friends or other loves, just for you.
I was being loved, but not by you- by someone not even on my mind.
This year I gave him a chance and I really love him.
But anyways, I will always regret the year I have wasted on you-cuz now I really hate you.
I'd like to dedicate to Andrew Lake and Pat Lotorto (Andrew is whom I hate)

This Is The End
This is the end
Time to say good-bye to your friend.
When we leave this school,
It's time for us to follow the 8th grader's rule.
No more familiar halls, teachers, or playgrounds.
Just strange people asking you about your background.
This is all such a big change,
I'm not so sure I know what to do.
But always and forever-I will never stop missing you.
I would like to dedicate this to my entire 5th grade
class of 1997-who I will always love and miss.

A Thought
There is a thought
Of you, family, love, joy.
Fading, ever fading.
Wanting, ever wanting.
Unknowing, restless, tired.
Unhappy, sad, uninspired.
God knows, Only he.
Now I lay with only me.

*Why does love tear us all apart?*
They said that they were in love with each other,
so they said it was to last forever.
Really do they love each other? Are they willing
to be together forever and ever?
We tried to get her back, but we kept loosing
track.
If she hadn't changed so much,we possibly could
of stayed in better touch.
She was always there, especially when we needed
the hope and care.
But she has really changed, she is becoming quite
very strange.
Who is to blame? Her mother? Her friends? But
they don't take the blame!
Cause all of us are feeling the shame. Instead we
have to walk away praying to god, he will know
what to do. . .
I know she said she loves him more then anything. . ..
But as she says that she would rather die, then live
somebody elses lie.. .. .
I cry and cry, trying to blinkback the tears, the
disappointment,the frustration . .. .
We asked her what they will do,because her
parents do not approve.
She says that they will do their best until something
happens, may god have them blessed.
As this is no dream at all, this is reality, and all I
can do is remember the terrible terrible pain that
we all went through.

FEEL SO ALONE
NO-1´S HERE
NO-1´S THERE
NO-1 REALLY CARES...
ALL, I CANNOT TRUST
CAUSE MY HEART IS FULL OF LOSS
THEY SAID THEY WERE MY FRIENDS
BUT NO-1S HERE
THEY´RE JUST SIMPLE WORDS THEY SAID.........
CRUEL ARE ALL YOU
WHO HAVE ENTERED MY HEART
AND TORN IT APART
I GAVE LOVE
BUT SOME HOW THAT´S NOT GOOD ENOUGH.....
NOW I KNOW THERE´S NO TRUE PERSON
I´VE LEARNED MY LESSON.......
SO I APOLOGIZE
TO THOSE WHO HAVE NOT STABBED WITH A KNIFE
BUT YET AS HARD AS I TRY
THEE UN HEARD CRYS
AREN´T FORGOTTEN
THE PAST IS STILL THE PRESENT
AND IN THE DEEPNESS OF ME HEART
THE SCARES REMAIN..........
