Friends
How to define the essence of a true friend?
Certainly one on who you can depend.
Who doesn't count the favours that they lend.
Be there for you, no matter where,
No matter when.
Know when to sit back and let you jump,
Catch when you fall too.
Be there for you, through and through.
Make you smile when you're feeling blue.
Little things you say and do,
The quantity just right, and the content true.
We all have acquaintances,
They can be there for you in certain instances.
But a true friend, Never Judges,
Just Supports, Always Share
And are never afraid to show they care.
I don't have that many true friends,
But I know that they'll be there if I have a need.
To those special few, I've dedicated this to you.
I hope in some small way,
It goes toward saying Thank you!!!
Thoughts of .....
Some folks are not hard of hearing; they are hard of listening.
Nothing is as hard to do as getting down off your high horse gracefully
Snobbery is a shield put up by the mediocre to impress the uninterested.
Wisdom has been defined as knowing the difference between pulling your weight and throwing it around.
First we make our habits and then our habits make us.
It's best to be silent and thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Be slow to anger and quick to forgive and you will have friends for as long as you live.
�A person can save himself from many hard falls by refraining from jumping to conclusions.
Think of doubt as an invitation to think.
Prejudice is a matter of being down on something you're not up on.
It's amazing how generous many people think they are because they give free advice.
A gossip is a person who will never tell a lie if the truth will do as much damage.
It's possible to have good eyes and see nothing.
Friends Without Faces
We sit and we type and we stare at our screens.
We all have to wonder, what this possibly means.
We chat with each other, we share all our woes,
Small groups we do form and gang up on our foes.
We wait for somebody to type out our name,
We want recognition and offer the same.
We give kisses and hugs and sometimes we flirt,
In rooms we chat deeply and reveal why we hurt.
We form friendships but why is a thing we don't know,
Though most often founder some will flourish and grow.
Why is it that on screen, we can all be so bold,
Telling our secrets that have never been told?
Why is it we share those deep thoughts in our mind
With those we can't see, as though we were blind?
The answer is simple, it's as clear as a bell.
We all have our problems and need someone to tell.
We can't tell "real" people, but tell someone we must
So we turn to the 'puter, and to those we can trust.
Even though it is crazy, the truth still remains,
They are friends without faces and with odd little names.
I Love You
I Love You
You're kissable and cuddly;
You're lovable and sweet;
You thrill me every minute,
And sweep me off my feet.
You're charming and disarming,
Desirable and true.
You inspire and impress me,
And that's why I love you!
here's a poem I wrote when I was 14, I just found it from one of my old disks..it's sad and makes me tear up just knowing that's how I felt as a kid....
Alone
Alone.
Leave me alone.
Don't deserve love,
Don't get too close,
Don't touch me.
I'll only hurt you,
Push you away.
Curl up in a ball,
Just me.
No one else,
No one can touch me.
Shut you out,
Shut the world out.
Alone,
Not lonely.
Yes it is lonely.
Lonelier when I'm with lots of people.
Feel detached,
At odds with myself, the world, everything.
I stood among them, but not of them,
In a shroud of thoughts which were not their thoughts.
Escape.
Go away to a cabin in the woods.
Just me and the birds and my dogs.
The only ones who truly accept you as you are,
No questions,
Unconditional love.
No questions.
Alone.
Me and my dog take off.
Candles, flames, fire, warm,
All-consuming.
Just sit and stare into the flame,
Imagine myself curled up inside the flame,
Fire all around me.
Surrounding, protesting, isolating.
No one can touch me.
Cocoon, protection,
Womb-like.
No worries, no fears, no thoughts.
Change, metamorphosis, become better,
Emerge whole, complete.
At peace.
Light, warmth, acceptance.
Love.
Love is patient, love is kind.
Faith, hope and love, these three.
But the greatest of these is love.
Tired.
Want to sleep forever.
Want to dream of paradise,
No more hurt, no more pain.
No one else.
Don't touch me.
Don't be nice to me.
I'll cry
Salty tears down my face,
Wet my pillow
Before I even realize I'm crying.
Something inside of me is empty.
It's broken, it's missing.
Irreplaceable.
Punishment, jail, bars.
No public sentence,
Only an eternity locked up inside myself,
Alone, tired, exhausted.
The True Meaning of Friendship
Some people will be your friend
because of whom you know
some people will be your friend
because of your position
some people will be your friend
because of the way you look
some people will be your friend
because of your possessions
but only the real friends
are the people who will be
your friends
because they like you for how
you are inside.
