Across the miles if only you could read my thoughts, I would feel your tear drops fall across my still face. My heart would find its beat and once again I would experience that joy of life that died inside me so long ago when I lost you. What has taken the space of your absence I'll simply tell you this: Memories of moments I'd only wish I could have frozen. Love so painful, yet so necessary to go on living. I have longed for you endlessly and the desire of wanting you has left me so empty walking a darken path that sheds no light, but instead it shows me the reflection of my darken soul. My pleas continue to go unanswered leaving me to battle with my inner spiritual-self to content. I know you are the one that was meant to compliment my soul and although people tell me to let go, my heart can't free itself from the rapture of your love. I'll Never Forget the Love That I Shared with You I know that someday I'll get used to the fact that we're not together any more. And that maybe we won't be... ever again. Time will tell. In the meantime, though, you may be away from my arms, but you will never be very far from my heart. I know the love will never leave. There are too many memories; there were so many precious moments and wonderful times to ever try to forget... And I just want you to know that I will remember for the rest of my days, how you helped me find some happiness and some truths and how you opened some beautiful doors. I'll never forget how good it was to share a part of my life with yours. Poem by Collin McCarty Death on a snowy night: It was a snowy night And I should have known you didn't want to come out. But I begged you over the phone Please I want to see you And you finally gave in So happy that you agreed But something felt wrong within Felt it all the way to your house Even has we laughed out loud Grasping each other as we slipped On the icy ground. I remember the way you smiled And pleaded with me Asking me where we were going And I replied "you'll see" I knew how much I loved you Want to spend my life with you All the time we've spent together Look at how much we grew Staring at your face The bright lights blinding me Wasn't ready for what happened next Yet It's all still clear to me The impact of the car Ramming into the side Throwing my head into the glass Some teenagers on a joyride I woke later that night Your scream ringing in my ear Laying in a hospital bed Suddenly remembering why I'm here Dashed out of the door And headed down the hall Spotted your family standing there Lose of breath caused me to fall They lead me into the room Still unable to believe You promised me forever Why did you have to leave Kissed your pale forehead And said a final goodbye Then quickly went from the room A single tear fell from my eye Walked out into the snow And across the street I lost a part of my soul And my life was incomplete Pulled the gun from my pocket And put it to my head In a minute I'd be with you Laying in our death bed Closed my eyes tight And pulled the trigger slow Didn't even feel the pain Of the bullets blow I Woke from my slumber with a start My breath heavy and quick My head still pounding Like I'd been hit with a brick Then all the memories came back Still haunted by your face I told you it was forever These times will never erase Dream of you every night Even though you don't know me Maybe someday I'll find you In this new life that's come to be Until the day I die And even after death I will love you forever Even after my final breath SAD SUICIDE: She cut her wrist at school today She sliced across then turned away It happened during Math around nine o five She watched her blood drip to make sure she was alive All alone in her stall She hears that devils call The one that will lead to her death The one that will take her last breath She slices quickly down her vein Thoughts of dying race through her brain She doesn't notice a teacher walk in She doesn't notice her heart fill with sin Her blood drips quickly to the floor Her mind saying i want more She keeps up drawing with her knife She keeps up ending her life In a bathroom stall she slowly dies In her soul are all those lies She neatly puts down her suicide note Words saying I could never cope She lays her delicate head on the floor Her suicidal mind saying i need no more Gracefully she closes her eyes Bleeding away all her lies Like an angel her soul flies away A young girl took her life today So many times: You've cause tears Forming beihnd my eyes I try so hard to hide my fears For if I grow so weak And fall apart letting them show you'll use your mind tricks and games Calling me out to play The way you play It's just not fair So when your calling my name and the father isn't here you know you've caught me now You know these fears are free'd You've found my weaknesses You've found those fears For when the father isn't here My hearts too weak My minds not clear Once you've grasped me in your hand You think it's time You think I'm yours Beginnning to play with me I'm now just your toy I've fallen hard I can't get up Why is the father not here Why can't he hear my plea Temptation has come I can't escape Let me go I hate this place I don't want to cry I don't want to die I don't want to hate myself Yet temptation has come I can't be safe Kicking an screaming I'm fighting back But I'm just too weak It's God I lack Yet temptaion has come I can't see clear My vision is blurred By the tight grip of this game Let me go now I'm not your little toy I don't want to play Yet temptation has come I can't stay away (This poem..if you don't understand by now is about being drawn in by the temptation and game that the devil plays, and how much I wanna get away but I lack my Lord and Savior. So right now I feel that until I have found him again in my heart the temptations by the devil will stay.) . IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME: It should have been me not her but everything now comes as a blur I stepped in for only a minute and because of that my sisters life is finished I looked outside and she was there I looked again and i was scared I saw the white car slam on the break I ran out and said please god let this be fake At that moment i knew her life was in danger And i sat there holding her and out of the car stepped a stranger When i looked up at the car it looked splashed with red paint At that moment i felt faint He just looked down and said in a sad voice I'm sorry We were at the hospital until the sky went starry At 2am she came in a pronounced her dead I cried no! And mom just kissed my head At the funeral we said our goodbyes I saw all the sadness I heard all the cries But I look now and theres an extra star in the sky...And i close my eyes I will never have said my full goodbyes NO ONE KNOWS: No one knows Anything but what they see But they don't know About the true life of me. I try to look happy And content with my life But inside I'm upset Thinking of all of the strife. My heart breaks Every time my parents fight I pull the headphones over my ears Ready to face another horrible night. I'm struggling with depression A drowning sadness in my heart It hurts me to think That my parents are growing apart. What happened to our simple life When we all got along? Was it because of me? Was there something I did wrong? I can't take this much longer I don't know how much I can stand Arguments and hateful words Dismiss any comfort at hand. I cling to the few happy things in my life Like the warmth of a friend's loving word Or the welcoming arms of my one and only And the people who listen when I want to be heard. But no one knows They believe only what they see They wouldn't understand The true life of me. Lost my best friend: As I sit and think about me and you and about the things we used to do We used to talk on and on everyday never used to bother what the others say We spent hours talking on the phone whenever we felt we were alone We did favours and helped each other now it seems you chose another You said our friendship is never ending But it seems it needs some mending Never thought of loosing a best friend I hate to know that it is the end Thought you would be with me here by my side through all the years Now you have left me torn apart with tears in my eyes and a broken heart Looked like our friendship would last but it looks like a thing of the past You hate me and I don't know why I just don't wanna say goodbye Maybe its because I'm bad or thought of me make you mad You an leave me or you can lie but I will never say goodbye You walk close to me but u pass me by and you pretend that our freindship was lie I wipe the tears of my eyes and try to forget all your lies Never knew this is how it would end loosing my best friend ! DEAR MOTHER: Dear Mother All my life you've worked so hard Always kept me under your guard Everything negative you taught me to discard For all you've done you deserve a reward Dear Mother Not only have you been my mother but you've been my father too Because of the kind of woman you are I look up to you No matter what happened you always pushed through I know the love you have for our family is so true Dear Mother You've made me who I am today You stayed right by my side when skies were gray Never once did you give up and walk away I hope that one day the love and dedication you have I can somehow portray Dear Mother I appreciate everything you have ever done for me You've been my guiding light since I was just a baby You've made us the type of family that people envy I would do anything for you, even die, I hope that you can see Dear Mother I promise to always take care of you because you are such a rare find You always kept me close and never were unkind Your motherly love has always shined For all that you are I love you Dear Mother on mine The day we met: I'm finally happy I have you to thank cuz I'm just so lucky you weren't really that great. I'm finally smiling and I just can't stop, and you've made it so easy by not being so hot. I'm finally happy you don't have to ask why but thank you for leaving now I no longer must lie. I lied many times when I said that I cared. I lied to your face when I said I wanted you there. I felt so guilty, all of the time because every I love you was only a lie. So thank you for "loving" and thank you for leaving you made my life hell until the day you left! Now I'm finally happy... without a single regret... except for maybe,... THE DAY WE MET?!?! MY ANGEL :: Flew down from above, To teach me a lesson About the powers of love. She whispers to me, Take a hold of my hand, There are so many things I wish you to understand. About the powers of love, And all it can do, To someone who needs To share it with you. A pat on the back, A kind smile on your face, Can make someone's life, A much brighter place. It doesn't take much, To show someone you care, To give them the love, God gave you to share. So please keep in mind, All the powers you possess, To grace someone's life, When they're in distress. You've been put on this earth To bestow the powers of love, And with those final words, She disappeared up above. When bad things happen people always blame them on God. And then people think oh yeah everything, "Happens for a reason" but why this why now. Some people wish that they could of said something, but now it is to late. And even though they know something can happen just like that *snap*, They don't tell the ones they care about just how much they love them. Some people also start saying they hate god, How can you hate God? He brings and makes so many miracles that cause joy. He made you, giving you a chance to live. He brings love ones together, He's always there to help you though, He can give you courage and strength, all you have to do is ask. Yes he also brings violence and death, things people wish wouldn't happen. But if nothing bad ever happened no one would enjoy the good. And when ever God takes someone away from us, either young or old you just have to remember, he only takes the very Best! Dear Friend: How are you? I just had to send you this letter to tell you how much I love and care about you. I saw you yesterday as you were walking with your friends. I waited all day, hoping you would talk to Me also. As evening drew near, I gave you a sunset to close your day and a cool breeze to rest you, and I waited. You never came. Oh yes, it hurt Me, but I still love you because I am your friend. I saw you fall asleep last night, and I longed to touch your brow, so I spilled moonlight upon your pillow and face. Again I waited, wanting to rush down so we could talk. I have so many gifts for you. You awakened late and rushed off for the day... My tears were in the rain. Today you looked so sad, so alone. It makes my heart ache because I understand. My friends let Me down and hurt Me many times too, but I love you. I try to tell you in the quiet green grass; I shout it to you in the colors of the flowers. I shout it to you in the mountain streams, and give the birds love songs to sing. I clothe you with warm sunshine and perfume the air. My love for you is deeper than oceans and bigger than the biggest want or need you have. We will spend eternity together in heaven. I know how hard it is on earth, I really know (because I was there), and I want to help you. My Father wants to help you too. He's that way, you know. Just call Me, ask Me, talk to Me. It is your decision. I have chosen you, and because of this I will wait... Because I love you. Don’t Take The Girl Your web browser is NOT capable of playing Music Johnny’s daddy was taking him fishing When he was eight years old. A little girl came through the front gate Holding a fishing pole. His dad looked down and smiled, Said, "We can’t leave her behind.

Take anybody that you want, as Long as she don’t go. Take any boy in the world. Daddy please- don't take the girl." Same old boy, Same sweet girl, Ten years down the road. He held her tight and kissed her lips In front of the picture show. Stranger came and pulled a gun, Grabbed her by the arm, Said, "If you do what I tell you to do There won't be any harm." And Johnny said, "Take my money. Take my wallet. Take my credit cards. Here’s the watch that my grandpa gave me. Here’s the keys to my car, Mister give it a whirl, But please-don't take the girl."
