Searching,  seeking, looking
As my heart would break with pain
loneliness ******* the life from me
Clunched in foetus position
Drenched with tears as each hot tear
Ran down my cheeks

Praying in the middle of the night
Seeking the face of the Lord
To take away this longing
To remember me and come to my rescue
Rescue me o Lord, I prayed, give me a man
One that will love me truly and with no reservations

Lord, my husband, you have taken away
Where do I begin to look? I am simple and don't like drama
The club's and social places are not for me
I would never give myself to any man, except my own
Where do I find my own, one that is like me
Who can make me laugh so hard

Ahh! Then you came along SMW, and I SNW
You filled my eyes with tears, not of sadness but laughter
So alike did I find you. Could this be true?
Joy, happiness and gladness, so filled my heart
At the thought of you, my heart would leap in joy

We are seas apart, continents separate us,
I long to be in your arms my love, I long for that day
When two hearts become one, as your body touches mine
With fire and passion so filled with longing, hunger

Tell me, are you here to stay? Are you the answer to my prayers?
Will you ever leave me? Can you assure me that you will
Always be there for me? Do you long for me as much as I long for you?

In her very last breathe,
she looked over at him.
He seemed so frail now, shivering from sadness
She blinked, and suddenly her wrinkly hand turned smooth again
she is 18, he is 19.
He held her hand, the one that had anti-depressants clunched in her fist
He made the promises of marriage, of children,
of the career she wanted, of sending their children off
he made the promise of strength, of love, of light.
Finally, he made the promise of a love that is constant.
She let go of the clunched fist, and sobbed towards the future she longed for. She saw it all in his eyes, every wrinkle they'd grow.
She blinked again, and the wrinkles were all there.
With her tiny hands she stroked his tears away
as he once did to hers
and she stared straight into his eyes
their life frame by frame
"you never did break your promise."
Her last words.
He passed shortly after her.
Fist clunched,fiery eyes, every step destroys
I was past my point
I was set off
A boy named Taylor
Who always bragged,
Thought he was perfect, thought he was cool cause he was rich,
With a mansion and almost every toy.
He got in an argument with and someone
He said "why you always gotta be a *****" im not lying
And I said "I may be a female but im not a dog
And I won't let you treat me like your slave,
Be lucky U have a dad around all the time
Cause mine has been in jail most of my life
see not everyone has a perfect life"
At least I know is what I thought in my head
while cried infront of the whole 6th and 7th grade
Then walked off with the tears still running down
THIS IS TRUE THIS DID HAPPEN. IT HAPPENED TODAY IN SCHOOL

The stars watched meekly
The moon mourned
And she sang all I want
She sang to the campfire
To the ashes
She clunched her heart
And tears ran like rivers
All I want she whispered...
And she slipped into the night.
