Special Friendship Roses.

2007-05-16T10:00:00.000-07:00

Someone has sent you special friendship roses.

I'm sending:
Strength for when you're feeling weak,
Hope for when life seems bleak.
Energy for when you feel tired,
Laughter to help you get inspired.

Let our friendship be your guiding light
when you feel lost at sea.

For all this and more,
You can always count on me

I m Cursed

2007-05-13T04:53:00.000-07:00

I'm feeling so hurt;

Maybe it's fate or maybe I am cursed.

I try my best but can't do anything right;

It's never just easy; always a bumpy ride.

I try to speak but they can't hear;

My voice, my views; they just can't bear.

When words I share; they judge me to soon;

Interpret them in ways so wrong; in ways uncool.

Whatever I've felt; I've tried to put it through;

And when they looked; they just only saw through.

They never stopped to think what I was all about;

Sometimes the pushed me away; sometimes they just shot me down.

All my life, I've tried to make people happy and smile;

But they hurt me so all this while.

I try to hang in but they move away;

So, I let them be; let them have thier way.

If misunderstood I am; I might as well quit;

Why should I bother with this mess; why should take all this s**t?

But when think I do, I am the one always left alone;

From head to toe, from skin to bone.

Maybe it's not them, maybe it's just me;

Maybe I am the problem; that's the way it'll always be.

But it'd be nice if they heard me, maybe just this one time;

To help me see who's wrong;that it's no fault of mine.

But the harder I try, the more I fail;

Maybe I'll let this be, I'll let it prevail.

This feeling of being unappreciated, misunderstood and totally unheard;

I guess it's not fate; maybe I am cursed.

When a Girl is quiet....................

2007-05-12T02:31:00.000-07:00

When a Girl is quiet,

Millions of things are running in her mind.

When a Girl is not arguing,

She is thinking deeply.

When a Girl looks at u with eyes full of questions,

She is wondering how long you will be around.

When a Girl answers "i'm fine" after a few seconds,

She is not at all fine.

When a Girl stares at you,

She is wondering why you are lying.

When a Girl lays on your chest,

she is wishing for you to be hers forever.

When a Girl calls you everyday,

She is seeking for your attention.

When a Girl sms's u everyday,

She wants you to reply at least once.

When a Girl says I love you,

She means it.

When a Girl syas that she can't live without you,

She has made up her mind that yor are her future.

When a Girl says "i miss you"

No one in this world can miss you more than her...........

Missing U My Love

2007-05-11T04:48:00.000-07:00

Missing U My Love

When you went away my world

Turned to grey without

the Sunshine of your smile.

All seems dark without the light

From the twinkle in your eyes.

My heart is heavy without the

Sound of your laughter and the

Touch of your sweet voice.

It seems an eternity since you

Left even though it was only yesterday

And I know it won't Be long till we're together forever.

So smile with those who Love you less but

save your tears For me, My dear.

Prayer of the day...

2007-05-09T09:33:00.000-07:00

We All Need Friends

2007-05-08T09:40:00.000-07:00

Friends are people who care

Who don't cry or shout when you ask them to share

Who can share fun times without getting mad

Who try to comfort you when you're sad

Who share secrets and never tell

Who make sure you're feeling well

Who can have a fun time and share their games

Who never let you take the blame

Friends are people who you need,

Who don't try to make you do something wrong

Who will stay friends long

Yes, we all need friends.

Colour of Butterfly

2007-05-05T01:59:00.001-07:00

Your butterfly has truly emerged.
Bright, beautiful, symmetrical.
Blazing with colour.
Pinks for our love.

Deep reds for our hearts,
Our passions, our lips.
Yellows for our glow, our Light,
Our Spirits, our beautiful Sun.

Blues for our clear skies,
Our peace, our calm, your eyes.
Greens for our earth, our plants,
Our nature that surrounds
Our beautiful little bridge
That you built.
With hearts bonded and melted,
With pure love and sexiness,
With sheer poetry and excitement
Come fly with me.

Beauty

2007-05-04T01:49:00.000-07:00

Your lips, your eyes,

your soulAre like a work of art,

The most creative thing of all

Is your beautiful heart.

If you were a painting,

No colours could express

The beauty deep inside you,

A rainbow, nothing less.

If you were a sculpture

The clay could hardly make

Your figure of an angel

Without one mistake.

If you were a euphony

No choir could really sing

All the beautiful music

Your eyes could possibly bring.

So here I am, an artist,

With inspiration beyond belief

But to capture such rare beauty,

I'd have to be a thief

The Prayer of a Mother

2007-05-03T03:05:00.000-07:00

The Prayer of a Mother

Protector, defender
Confidant and friend
Encourager, helper
Listener and Godscend

You make time
When there seems
There’s no time to be found
You listen when
There’s no one else around

When others just walk away
I can see you’re watching
Just waiting for me to
Look your way

You sometimes intrude
But it’s only because you care
You want me to grow
But always know you’re there

You find so many ways
To show me you care
Even when I feel embarrassed
By the fact that you’re there

There’s one thing though
I want you to know
It’s the prayer of a mother
That touches the Father’s heart

For it’s filled with compassion
And it never gives up
Though time may weary others
Nothing can truly stop a mother’s love

So thank you for the times
That you stopped and prayed
That the Lord would be my guide
And the times you sensed
Something was not quite right
And you asked the Father
To come and be by my side

Yes it’s the prayers of the mother
That touch a Father’s heart
Those prayers filled with the compassion
That are directed
By a mother’s love.

AROUND THE CORNER

2007-05-02T10:02:00.000-07:00

AROUND THE CORNER

Around the corner I have a friend,

In this great city that has no end,

Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,

And before I know it, a year is gone.

And I never see my old friend's face,

For life is a swift and terrible race,

He knows I like him just as well,

As in the days when I rang his bell.

And he rang mine but we were younger then,

And now we are busy, tired men.

Tired of playing a foolish game,

Tired of trying to make a name.

"Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Jim

Just to show that I'm thinking of him."

But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,

And distance between us grows and grows.

Around the corner, yet miles away,

"Here's a telegram sir,"…. "Jim died today."

And that's what we get, and deserve in the end:

Around the corner, a vanished friend.

I can't stop loving You

2007-05-01T11:43:00.000-07:00

I can't stop loving You

So many things I want to say
A tear slides down my cheek
As I know, this poem will never find your way
It's been a month or more
But the pain still haunts me
My heart is still sore
And I question myself
When will I ever see you again
When will my pain subside
When will I stop crying every night
Wishing with all my heart
That you were there by my side
Never thought love could be so painful
But I must go on, on my own, without you
And love you every day more and more
Even without you here
I can't stop loving You

To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time

2007-04-30T06:35:00.000-07:00

To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time
by Robert Herrick

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying.

The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,
The higher he's a-getting,
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he's to setting.

That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse, and worst
Times still succeed the former.

Then be not coy, but use your time,
And while ye may, go marry;
For having lost but once your prime,
You may forever tarry.

The Next Morning....The Tragedy

2007-04-29T04:45:00.000-07:00

THE NEXT MORNING:

The day runs past

I'm seeing you pass me

and my life

Leaving a permanent mark

Affecting me with a terrible loss

I cry, I beg

Don't leave me and go

All I have is you

Dusk sets in

I'm laying sprawled on my bed

Thinking about the day's happenings

Then it strikes me

The next day,

Momma comes to wake me up

She sees water down my eyes

The alarm is ringing non-stop

She then spots my diary on the bed

beside me

She opens it...

She skims through the diary

reading the head-breaking horrors of my life

The endless tunnel of torture...

Then it hits her...

She searches for something furiously

Near the bed she finds

A bottle of pills

that I took for the night

I knew that i would not wake up

The next morning

I'll be fine

2007-04-28T10:43:00.000-07:00

The flowers are still fragrant and I’ll be fine.

Time still goes on, and memories were so beautiful.

I’m missing you, always missing you much.

You’re a secret in the bottom of my heart gradually.

Don’t say you love me and miss me,

If you don’t do that in you heart. Just want to perfunctory me.

I’ll be sorrow when I know. I want to you go ahead and never turn back ,

I’ll clear know what you want.

You needn’t to comfort me reluctantly and find strange reasons.

I still love you deeply until now, loving you deeply.

No matter it’s called friendship or love.

That’s the happiness in my heart.

Though I know it’s bitter. …….

I’ll sent my blessing to you I know it’s bitter…

How True Is Your Love

2007-04-27T04:27:00.000-07:00

How True Is Your Love

Are your palms sweaty, is your heart racing and is your voice

caught within your chest??

-It isn't love, it's LIKE.

You can't keep your eyes or hands off of her, am I right??

-It isn't love, it's LUST.

Are you proud, and eager to show her off??

-It isn't love, it's LUCK.

Do you want her because you know she's there??

-It isn't love, it's LONELINESS.

Are you with her because it's what everyone wants??

-It isn't love, it's LOYALTY.

Are you with her because she kissed you, or held your hand?

-It isn't love, it's LOW CONFIDENCE.

Do you stay for her confessions of love, because you don't want to hurt her?

-It isn't love, it's PITY.

Do you belong to her because the sight of her makes your heart skip a beat??

-It isn't love, it's INFATUATION.

Do you pardon her faults because you care about her?

-It isn't love, it's FRIENDSHIP.

Do you tell her every day she is the only one you think of?

-It isn't love, it's a LIE.

Are you willing to give up all of your favorite things for her sake?

-It isn't love, it's CHARITY.

Does your heart ache and breaks when she's sad?

-Then it's LOVE.

Do you cry for her pain, even when she's strong?

-Then it's LOVE.

Do her eyes see your true heart, and touch your soul so deeply it hurts?

-Then it's LOVE.

Do you stay because a blinding, incomprehensible mix of pain

and relation pulls you close and holds you to her?

-Then it's LOVE.

Do you accept her faults because it's a part of who she is?

-Then it's LOVE.

Are you attracted to others, but stay with her faithfully without regret??

-Then it's LOVE.

Would you give her your heart, your life, your death??

-Then it's LOVE.

Now, if love is painful, and tortures us so, why do we love?

Why is it all we search for in life? This pain, this agony?

Why is it all we long for? This torture, this powerful death of

self?

Why?

The answer is so simple cause it's... LOVE

Sweetheart...I wish to b with u forever!!!

Funny Poem - She was looking...

2007-04-24T10:31:00.000-07:00

She Was Looking...

Thirty feet away,

I see a beauty.

As each time I look up,

She is looking at me.

On her lips,

A sweet smile.

Making me

Gaze at her eyes

For awhile.

The girl,

With a black outfit,

Her smile is so naive

Making me stay here,

And never leave.

Seeing her brown hair,

My heart wants to be

Close to her,

And wants to

All night long stay here.

As every time

She smiles,

I do want to go near.

But,

What can I do,

I am afraid,

Her boyfriend is there.

Pain! Pain! Pain!

2007-04-23T10:34:00.000-07:00

The darkness surrounds me like a veil of uncertainty,
I wake up all through the night.
To be a prisoner to pain, leaves my soul cry out.
My mind wanders to places, only mad men go.
There was a time when life was hard,
yet the pain was gone.
The black sky fell, and there were furnace sounds.
It grew cold outside, left all alone to fight.
Where can I take these thoughts of doubt?
As the surgeon slept all snug in his bed,
The ointment stung on the back of my neck.
A piercing vibration, many jarring sensations.
I could hardly type this small frame of mind.
I am so very weary, sleep would be kind.
The traction helped for five to ten minuets.
The effects wore off long before my mind,
could find peace in a good nights rest.
No one liked to be around me anymore.
My mood turned grouchy, hot-tempered, and bold.
The pain never leaves me, it is worsening daily.
Sketched into my heart, growing everyday,
Until there is nothing left of me

Pain! Pain! Pain!

Please,

JUST LET ME GO

Daydream

2007-04-22T00:08:00.000-07:00

Whenever I day dream,

and day dream I do,

in my secret garden,

I day dream of you.

I day dream of you,

in a faraway land;

embracing me tight

and holding my hand.

Holding my hand,

and touching my face.

Just you and me,

in this peaceful place.

In this peaceful place

a pristine river flows.

Where the unicorns run,

a breeze always blows.

A breeze always blows

and sings of a song;

our love in a place

where you're never gone.

Where you're never gone

is as it would seem,

from dusk until dawn,

whenever I day dream.

And whenever I day dream,

and day dream I do,

in my secret garden,

I day dream of you.

Write on me your pain (poem)

2007-04-21T03:15:00.000-07:00

Write on me your pain

And I'll wash it out in the rain

Write on me your smiles

And I'll treasure them all the while

I can only be as much as you are

If you let me I'll be the sky for your stars

I can only see what you don't hide

If you let me

I'll be your sky

All I want you to do is write on me

I want my every single part

To reflect what's in your heart

All I want you to do

Is write on me In every single way

Want to know you

More each day

Write on me your thoughts

I'll make sure you know mine

Write on me your feelings

I'll wait if you need more time

I can only be as much as you are

If you let me I'll be the night for your fire

I can only see what you don't hide

If you let me

I'll be your night

All I want you to do is write on me

I want my every single part

To reflect what's in your heart

All I want you to do

Is write on me

In every single way

Want to know you

More each day

DON'T LOOK BACK

2007-04-19T23:03:00.000-07:00

DON'T LOOK BACK

As you travel through life there are always those times

When decisions just have to be made,

When the choices are hard, and solutions seem scarce,

And the rain seems to soak your parade.

There are some situations where all you can do

Is simply let go and move on,

Gather your courage and choose a direction

That carries you toward a new dawn.

So pack up your troubles and take a step forward -

The process of change can be tough,

But think about all the excitement ahead

If you can be stalwart enough!

There might be adventures you never imagined

Just waiting around the next bend,

And wishes and dreams just about to come true

In ways you can't yet comprehend!

Perhaps you'll find friendships that spring from new things

As you challenge your status quo,

And learn there are so many options in life,

And so many ways you can grow!

Perhaps you'll go places you never expected

And see things that you've never seen,

Or travel to fabulous,

faraway worldsAnd wonderful spots in between!

Perhaps you'll find warmth and affection and caring

And somebody special who's there

To help you stay centered and listen with interest

To stories and feelings you share.

Perhaps you'll find comfort in knowing your friends

Are supportive of all that you do,

And believe that whatever decisions you make,

They'll be the right choices for you.

So keep putting one foot in front of the other,

And taking your life day by day...

There's a brighter tomorrow that's just down the road

-Don't look back! You're not going that way!

I WILL BE THERE............................lovlyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

2007-04-17T21:41:00.000-07:00

I will be there.......

If one day you feel like crying...

Call me.

I don't promise that I will make

you laugh,

But I can cry with you

If one day you want to run

away--

Don't be afraid to call me.

I don't promise to ask you to

stop...But I can run with you

If one day you don't want

to listen

to anyone...

Call me.

I promise to be there for

you.

And I promise to be very

quiet.

But if one day you

call...

And there is

no answer...

Come fast to see

me.

Perhaps I need you.

Poem Of Love Accounting

2007-04-16T20:32:00.000-07:00

Poem Of Love Accounting
In the journal paper of my heart,
I have written a journal entry.
Debiting your love and your affection.
Darling you write the narration,
Your first love, I had already adjusted
On the ledger-folio column,
Any way our relations are true assets
On double-entry system
In addition, our love is true real and tangible
You debit-what comes in,
I credit-what goes out.
Your beauty is the capital of business.
My eyes are stock in trade.
Let us enter into transaction,
You secretly give me a trade discount,
I openly give you a cash discount
And thus my partner,
Our trading and profit-loss account will show super profit
My dear let us re-concile,
all our errors and total the trial balance of our affairs
arithmetically without maintaining any suspense account.
In the balance sheet of our life
Our children will be our true assets and liabilities
If they are boys, they will be our sundry debtors
If they are girls, they will be our sundry creditors
But if we have a boy and a girl,
Our balance sheet will tally automatically.

Achieving Dreams

2007-04-16T05:29:00.000-07:00

Achieving Dreams

A dream is a seed
The seed of a tree
A tree full of life
And the things you can be
Your dreams are the windows
Through which you can see
A hint of your future
And the things you will be
Each night when you sleep
You're feeding the seed
The seed of the tree
Of who you will be...

A .Special World

2007-04-15T07:01:00.000-07:00

A .Special World

A special world for you and me

A special bond one cannot see

It wraps us up in its cocoon

And holds us fiercely in its womb.

Its fingers spread like fine spun gold

Gently nestling us to the fold

Like silken thread it holds us fast

Bonds like this are meant to last.

And though at times a thread may break

A new one forms in its wake

To bind us closer and keep us strong

In a special world, where we belong.

power with in

2007-04-11T02:20:00.000-07:00

power with in

You say it won't happen

You say you don't believe

Yet love takes over those

Who refuse to step forward and see.

It conquers and slips through

Taking over those who choose to deny

Yet, when it all comes down

It is a power even those cannot defy.

Give yourself up to the power within

Let it seep through and take over.

Sit back and then

Become my true beloved

Death Of An Innocent . . .A touching poem

2007-04-08T03:56:00.000-07:00

Death Of An Innocent . . .A touching poem

I went to a party Mom,

I remembered what you said.

You told me not to drink, Mom,

So I drank soda instead.

I really felt proud inside, Mom,

The way you said I would.

I didn't drink and drive, Mom,

Even though the others said I should.

I know I did the right thing, Mom,

I know you are always right.

Now the party is finally ending, Mom,

As everyone is driving out of sight.

As I got into my car, Mom,

I knew I'd get home in one piece.

Because of the way you raised me,

So responsible and sweet.

I started to drive away, Mom,

But as I pulled out into the road,

The other car didn't see me, Mom,

And hit me like a load.

As I lay there on the pavement, Mom,

I hear the policeman say,

"The other guy is drunk," Mom,

And now I'm the one who will pay.

I'm lying here dying, Mom....

I wish you'd get here soon.

How could this happen to me, Mom?

My life just burst like a balloon.

There is blood all around me, Mom,

And most of it is mine.

I hear the medic say, Mom,

I'll die in a short time.

I just wanted to tell you, Mom,

I swear I didn't drink.

It was the others, Mom.

The others didn't think.

He was probably at the same party as I.

The only difference is, he drank

And I will die.

Why do people drink, Mom?

It can ruin your whole life.

I'm feeling sharp pains now.

Pains just like a knife.

The guy who hit me is walking, Mom,

And I don't think it's fair.

I'm lying here dying

And all he can do is stare.

Tell my brother not to cry, Mom.

Tell Daddy to be brave.

And when I go to heaven, Mom,

Put "Daddy's Girl" on my grave.

Someone should have told him, Mom,

Not to drink and drive.

If only they had told him, Mom,

I would still be alive.

My breath is getting shorter, Mom.

I'm becoming very scared.

Please don't cry for me, Mom.

When I needed you, you were always there.

I have one last question, Mom.

Before I say good bye.

I didn't drink and drive,

So why am I the one to die . . .:((

when I whine

2007-04-06T11:08:00.000-07:00

when I whine

Today, upon a bus,

I saw a girl with golden hair

I looked at her and sighed and wished I was as fair.

When suddenly she rose to leave,

I saw her hobble down the aisle.

She had one leg and used a crutch

But as she passed, she passed a smile.

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine

I have 2 legs, the world is mine.

I stopped to buy some candy

The lad who sold it had such charm

I talked with him a while, he seemed so very glad

If I were late, it'd do no harm.

And as I left, he said to me,"I thank you, you've been so kind.

It's nice to talk with folks like you.

You see," he said, "I'm blind.

"Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.

I have 2 eyes, the world is mine.

Later while walking down the street,

I saw a child with eyes of blue

He stood and watched the others play

He did not know what to do.

I stopped a moment and then I said,

"Why don't you join the others, dear?

"He looked ahead without a word.

And then I knew, he couldn't hear.

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.

I have 2 ears, the world is mine.

With feet to take me where I'd go.

With eyes to see the sunset's glow.

With ears to hear what I would know.

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.

I've been blessed indeed,

The world is mine.

If this poem makes you feel like I felt,

just forward it to all your friends,

after all, it's just a simple reminder....

We have soooooo much to be thankful for!!!

Sorrow looks back,

Worry looks around,

Faith looks up.

I bargained with life

2007-04-05T11:49:00.000-07:00

I bargained with life

“I bargained with life for a penny,
And life would pay no more.
However, I begged at evening when I counted my scanty store.
For life is just an employer, it gives you what you ask.
But once you have set the wages
Why then you must bear the task
I worked for a menial hire,
Only to learn dismayed
That any wage I had asked life for,
Life would have willingly paid”

DEAR FRNDS,A PEOM FOR YOU ALL WHICH I HAVE WRITTEN T,SO PLEASE TELL ME YOUR VIEWS ABT THIS POEM.

"SHADOW"

WHEN MY SHADOW IS NOT WITH ME,
HOW CAN I TELL YOU THAT YOU WALK WITH ME.
WHEN BRIGHTNESS DO DARKNESS IN FRONT OF MY EYES,
THEN HOW CAN I SHOW THE WAY TO YOU.
WHEN I HAVE SOLD MY PEN,
THEN HOW CAN I TELL YOU TO WRITE YOUR FEELINGS OF HEART.
WHEN I WANT DEATH INSTEAD OF LIFE,
THEN HOW CAN I HEAL YOU.
WHEN MY HEART DOES NOT BEAT IN THE NAME OF LOVE,
THEN HOW CAN I TELL YOU THAT YOU GIVE ME YOUR LOVE.
WHEN MY SHADOW IS NOT WITH ME,
HOW CAN I TELL YOU THAT YOU WALK WITH ME.

For everylife

I think each morning when I rise,

Of how I may achieve,

I know by serving I advance,

By giving I receive.

Portrait of a Friend

Portrait of a Friend

I can't give solutions to all of

life's problems, doubts, or fears.

But I can listen to you and

together we will search for answers.

I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain,

nor the future with it's untold stories.

But I can be there now when you need me to care.

I can't keep your

feet from stumbling.

I can only offer my hand

that you may grasp it

and not fall.

Your joys, triumps, success,

and happiness are not mine;

Yet I can share in your laughter.

Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;

I can only support you, encourage you,

and help you when you ask.

I can't prevent you from

falling away from friendship,

from your values, from me.

I can only pray for you,

talk to you, and wait for you.

I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you,

But I can give you the room to change, room to grow,

room to be yourself.

I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,

But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces

and put them back in place.

I can't tell you who you are.

I can only love you and be your friend.

YES I CAN!

2007-04-01T00:35:00.000-07:00

YES I CAN!

If you think you are beaten, you are,
If you think you dare not, you don’t.
If you’d like to win, but think you can’t,
It’s almost certain you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost,
For in this world, you will surely find,
Success begins with a fellow’s will,
It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are,
You’ve got to think high to rise.
You’ve got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger or faster man,
But sooner or later, the person who wins,
Is the one who thinks he can!

WORK MAKES LIFE SWEET, PURPOSEFUL, AND FRUITFUL

WORK MAKES LIFE SWEET, PURPOSEFUL, AND FRUITFUL

Work is the foundation of all business, the source of all prosperity and the parent of genius.

Work can do more to advance youth than his own parents, be they ever so wealthy.

It is represented in the humblest savings and has laid the foundation of every fortune.

It is the salt that gives life its flavour but it must be loved before it can bestow its greatest blessing and achieve its greatest ends.

When loved, work makes life sweet, purposeful, and fruitful.

As long as ever you can

2007-03-31T04:32:00.000-07:00

Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.......
