In shadows cast by cruel disdain,
A bully's wrath does cause great pain.
With sharpened words, they seek to harm,
Leaving scars that leave hearts alarm.

They prey upon the vulnerable,
Their actions callous, so terrible.
Intimidation their chosen game,
But their power is truly so lame.

For strength lies not in force or might,
But in the kindness shining bright.
A bully's heart is filled with fear,
A mirror reflecting what's not clear.

Let's stand together, hand in hand,
Against the darkness they command.
With love and empathy, let us rise,
And silence their venomous cries.

In unity, we'll break their hold,
Replacing fear with stories bold.
For every soul deserves respect,
In a world where love we must protect.

Friendship is a bond so dear,
One that fills our hearts with cheer,
Through good times and bad,
We stand together, never sad.
With laughter and joy we share,
And comfort each other when in despair,
A shoulder to cry on, a listening ear,
A friend like you is always near.
In times of need, you're always there,
A true friend, beyond compare,
Forever and always, our bond will last,
For true friendship is never surpassed.

It's those mean girls, so awful and mean,
Their mission in life, to bring others unseen.
Tear down the innocent in their typical way,
Wanting others to hurt like they do each day.
They're manipulative and cruel, bullies in disguise,
Pink cliques and gossip being circulated lies.
The teasing and taunting lurks behind every door,
Bullying is widespread, with a lot to investigate and explore.
The continual put downs, shattered esteem,
Leaves the victim trapped in a state in between.
So cruel and judgemental, mean girls with fake smiles,
Disguising true intentions, lives in denial, stuck up aisle.
They don't realize the harm they wage,
Sprinkle their evil with a casual age.
It's those mean girls, so awful and mean,
Their mission in life, to bring others unseen.

In this world, where shadows may fall,
I find solace in our bond, strong and tall.
Me and you, together we stride,
Facing life's challenges, side by side.
Through thick and thin, we have grown,
A partnership so deep, it's etched in stone.
Bound by love, trust, and understanding,
Our souls entwined, endlessly expanding.
In your eyes, I find a reflection of me,
A love so pure, it will forever be.
The laughter we've shared, the tears we've shed,
The memories crafted, like golden threads.
In moments of weakness, you lift me high,
With your gentle touch, you ease each sigh.
You mend my wounds, both seen and unseen,
Playing the melody of dreams unforeseen.
Hand in hand, we venture into the unknown,
Building a future, where love has flown.
With every step, our hearts beat as one,
Creating a symphony, under the warmth of the sun.
When darkness comes, and storms may brew,
You and I, strong and steadfast, we'll push through.
For together we stand, unyielding and true,
Me and you, a love that forever grew.
So let the world gaze upon our love's bright hue,
Knowing that in this journey, it's truly me and you.
With hearts entwined, we'll conquer all that we face,
For love's embrace will forever embrace.
Its Just Me and You
To My current and Last Love, I love you so much

I fell in love with a man,
We thought our son was our saving grace,
We thought living in a homeless shelter,
Was only a temporary stay.
At first it was hard, but we had each other
And our love was our rock and support
We had all of our conversation,
Yet nothing we said could move us ahead,
Every night he said he'd find a better place
Our son was surrounded by sadness,
His future wasn't looking that great,
We could feel the despair in the air,
And we just could no longer wait.
Though we're still in the shelter,
There's a glimmer of light that's seen,
We can still take a positive road,
And happiness can still be achieved.

I'm standing here, in the middle of a crowded room
A mass of people living in a state of gloom
My shoulders are slumped, my eyes full of fear
I clutch my child close, desperate to keep him near
At night, his little body shakes with fright
We listen to the cries, drenched in night time light
The air is thick, with scents we despise
But this is our only home, and we just must endure this life
We pray for a better day, when we'll be free
We search for some hope, that will come swiftly
But for now, we must stay here and wait
Until we find a way, to remove this fate
For a home of our own, we'll keep our mind hopeful
We will find a place, where we can be pleasant
A place of warmth and joy with our child
Where joy and peace will forever abide
not quite this bad, but at 1st this is how i felt

My one year old son, his laugh so pure and sweet.
It's enough to fill my weary soul with life's purest heat.
His eyes, two bright stars in the night's dark sky,
Glistening with unbound curiosity as he soars ever high.
His skillful little hands, unrivaled in glee,
Stumble through his puzzle only to surprise me.
Time seems to stand still as I take in my proud creation,
And as I sweep him up in my arms he screams my name in jubilation.
In this moment I know there's no greater love than what I feel,
My one year old son is the only one my heart's ever sealed.
