POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Yes we can!
Don't ever think you won't succeed..
Sure you can,if you feel the need...
You are such a special being...
Look in the mirror,look who your seeing...
Hansom, pretty, short or tall...
Plain, skinny, wide, or small...
God did make us with a plan...
Step out tall and make a stand...
You can do it,you are strong...
What of it,if you get things wrong...
Life is here to learn our lessons...
And what of what,if we make some messes...
Those who judge and look at us...
Who are they to make a fuss...
Look more deeper you will see...

Strength of one!
Strength is found in us alone...
We've found this as we lived and grown...
Stand your ground and don't look back...
Stand far from those, compassion they lack...
Walk your road of love and faith...
Don't let others own your fate...
You are you, and they are they...
If ever fear grasps just stand and pray...
Don't let others own your being...
They don't see what we are seeing...
Life is special sent to us...
Don't let others make a fuss...
We are who we want to be...
Not for them to change from me...
Love yourself dispite their snares......

Sanity
What is sane? You, me, him, her?...
Take a look, lifes not a blur!...
Are you right, are you wrong?...
Time is up! hit the gong!...
Is it just the things you say?...
Listen to me, and come what may!...
Is it in the way I act?...
Or in the way I do react?...
Are you sane, or are you not?...
How long, before you lose the plot!...
Oh thats right you are normal!...
Way too proper, way too formal...
Gosh! we can't become so common...
People look, we can't have that on!...
Lets put up the airs and graces...
That'll put us in high places......

Ridicule
To think bullying is only during childhood?...
So very wrong, it happens in all walks of life...
So brave of ones who pick on others!...
To intimidate and ridicule, judge and lie about...
How strong really are they?...
We are stronger! we suffer at the hands of their wrath!...
We walk tall through their snide remarks and looks!...
They are weak! they are the ones with no compassion!...
To gossip, and lie, insult and laugh at!...
Who are you all? Sad and insecure, nasty and foolish!...
Thats who you are! How dare you judge another!...
We have love,...

The Question Is?
Is love really love? or an infactuation?...
Or waiting a sign of procrastination?...
Is waiting to love someone really a sin?...
Or should I just chuck, the thought in the bin?...
How do I no if he is the right one?...
How do I no if ive just jumped the gun?...
If the man I adore is no man at all!...
Am I opening myself up again, for a fall?...
Is he gentle and loving and honest to me?...
Or angry and bitter, and I just don't see?...
I've waited so long in desire and hope!...
To keep up the waiting, don't no if i'll cope!...
Maybe its time I...

Im just a girl!
Is it much to ask, to love me?...
Without the lies, deciet, the blame?...
Can you be with me? without the game?...
To enjoy our life, without the shame?...
I ask just this! You enjoy the kick?...
The slap me down! to take the mic?...
Can't you please just treat me nice?...
Love me, but not for a price!...
To be my friend,my man of peace?...
The one I trust, not just a thief!...
I don't ask much, just of respect...
A little compassion? that I detect?...
To love and care! to find my place!...
I end up kicked and in disgrace!...
Why I ask?...

Im always near
So full of giving, true and kind...
I think of this, you come to mind...
We laugh and joke, we share a yarn...
I call you grumpy, you say "oh darn"...
You've always been so good to me...
I no you are, coz I can see...
As stubborn as you are at times...
We get on well, our friendship binds...
Your pretty cool, I'll give you that...
Its good to sit with you and chat...
You are the closest thing Ive had...
Since years ago, I lost my Dad...
Just as him, you've time for me...
You and me, we'll always be...
I no at times life gets us...

I thank you
Sometimes people sent to us, hold a special place...
Then there is the rest of us, the ones just seeking grace...
We tend to lean upon the ones, we think will always care...
But then we mess the whole thing up, and run away in fear...
We all have issues to resolve and hurts to try to heal...
Some of us not good at that, not wanting to reveal...
But then we sit alone at times and think of whats been done...
Think of ones we loved and left, of smiles and the fun...
You are one who tends to leave, a sacred place with me...
A place of care and guidance, of...

Thankyou
To give me praise, to give me hope...
To treat me sane, not as a dope...
I won't forget the things you said...
You said nice things, I never fled...
No ridicule or insults...
No put me downs, or lies...
Just praise and understanding...
And sympathetic eyes...
I thankyou just for being you...
And letting me be me...
And being there to talk to me...
When others couldn't see...
I thankyou for the things you say...
Nice things you say, just make my day...
One thing i'll no is always true...
Angels arrive when feeling blue...

Looking forward
My wishes, hopes and all my dreams...
I see now what all that means...
My love my life for all to see...
I'll be back, this time for me...
Happiness will be so grand...
No more sadness, thats so bland...
I will look so much ahead...
Not the past, so much I dread...
Things are better for to see...
Things much better, just for me...
Looking forward with much hope...
Looking no more for a dope...
No more booze and no more lies...
No more sad and mean goodbyes...
Im now on a better road...
I don't need an ugly toad...
I will head to...

Im just me!
I am good and have a heart!
Don't take long, and you depart!
You have no class, no staying power!
You listen to gossip, rains like shower!
I am me and proud to be,its all you,you just don't see!
You listen to all, other words!
The things you hear,are all absurd!
Shallow,is the thing you are!
Way too mellow, weak too far!
You listen to, the gossip mongers!
They starve of words, as poor of hungers!
You listen to, of what you choose!
Not of truth,of others blues!
You have no shame, of what you hear!
You wollow in others, sad dispear!
I...

I try
As much as i try, I just can't get by...
The ridicule, putdowns and lies...
I get up each day, and just want to say...
To everyone I love goodbye...
I sit on my own, my sad days alone...
And wish I knew what i've done wrong...
I just can't get by, without times I cry...
That people won't leave me alone...
I wish I could face, each day with good grace...
And take my life firm in my hands...
To face each new day, with a smile on my face...
Happiness now, where pain had its place...
To bring joy back into my life...
To take out the pain, where...
