Poems From Friends

These Poems mean a lot to me
They have been sent to me, or
special people took the time to write them for me
So many people I owe so much to
No matter what I have done
you guys have always stuck by me.
All my love
~ China ~





Here are a few poems that my friend blast wrote for me to put up on my page.
He never questions when I ask him to do something for me..Being the person he is
he just does it...It could be something as much as song that he knew I wanted
or in this case a poem.
Some day, BLAST, I hope there is something I can do for you.

I Lied

I lied
no wait!!
that isn't true
but it's just a secret
that I've kept from you
it was no big deal
no need to cry
its just a secret
that I had to hide
it wasnt an attempt
to play some sick game
you'll understand
if I dont say her name

Snow Falls In June

snow falls in June
sun fades away
darkness takes over
a soul slips away

it was too early
it was too soon
no one expected
the snowfall in June

she was too precious
always so bright
snow fell in June
and closed out her light

so very young
so full of hope
so little future
no one could know

she wil be missed
cause she left so soon
she sliped away
when snow fell in June

This is a poem in danish,
for someone who has become very dear to me
I hope you find what you are looking for..Hope your dreams come true.
I would also like to thank Denmark40 for his help with my Danish

Min særlige kærlighed

De lykkeligste øjeblikke i mit liv
Er de jeg tilbragte med dig
De erindringer
som betyder mest for mig
er de mellem os to.
Og jeg håber, at dette budskab
viser dig på en eller anden måde
min særlige kærlighed for dig
som altid vil være i mit hjerte



This poem came from my friend Lucid
What can I say about him
We sure have had our ups and downs
but I think when we needed each other
We were there for each other
No matter what happens JD, You will always be with me

Everything Happens For A Reason

Sometimes people come into your life
and you know right away that they were meant to be there...
to serve some sort of purpose, to teach you a lesson
or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become.

You never know when these people might appear,
but when you lock eyes with them,
you know that every moment you spend with them,
they will affect your life in some profound way.

And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible,
painful and unfair,
but in reflection you realize that without overcoming these obstacles
you would have never realized your potential,
your strength, your willpower, your heart.

Everything happens for a reason.
Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck.
Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness
and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul.

Without life's challenges,
life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere...
safe and comfortable but dull and utterly pointless.

The people you meet affect your life.
The successes and downfalls that you experience
help create who you are, and the bad experiences can be learned from.
In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.

If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart,
forgive them
because they have helped you learn
about trust and the importance of being cautious
to whom you open your heart to.

If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally,
not only because they love you,
but because they are teaching you to love
and open your heart and eyes
to the essence of life which is love.

Make every day count.
Appreciate every moment and take from it
everything that you possibly can,
for you may never be able to experience it again.
Talk to people you have never talked to before,
and actually listen to what they say.

Let yourself fall in love,
break free from any limitations to loving another
and set your sights high.

Hold your head up because
you have every right to.
Tell yourself you are a unique individual.
Believe wholly in yourself.
For truly and indisputably
there is no other person
quite like the being that you are.

This poem is from my friend Popeyes' daughter Tiffany.
She was 13 when she wrote this.
Thanks Tiffany, this is very special




A FADED MEMORY
BY TIFFANY LAYTON


I NEVER KNEW MY PAP
ALTHOUGH HE WAS NOT A SAP
HE HAD TROUBLES IN HIS LIFE
EVEN WITH HIS WIFE
HE NEVER KNEW ME
AND I NEVER KNEW HE
HE TOOK HIS LIFE
NOT USING A KNIFE
I DON'T KNOW WHY
BUT IT MAKES ME CRY
WHY OH WHY
THEN I SIGH
MY PAP IS GONE
AND HAS BEEN GONE
TWO YEARS HAD PAST
NOW HIS MEMORY IS VAST
TEARS ON MY PILLOW
LIKE A WEEPING WILLOW







I was told, that this poem goes to a very
special guy,
and he will know who heart this came from
when he reads it

From This Moment On

I do Swear, that I'll always be there.
I'd give anything and everything and I will always care.
Through weakness and strength, happiness and sorrow,
for better, for worse, I will Love you with
every beat of my heart.

From this moment life has begun
From this moment you are the one
Right beside you is where I belong
From this moment on

From this moment I have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love, I'd give my last breath
From this moment on

I give my hand to you with all my heart
Can't wait to live my life with you
Can't wait to start
You and I will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you

Fom this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on

You're the reason I believe in love
And you're the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams came true because of you

From this moment, as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment
I will love you as long as I live
From this moment on

Rock sent this to me
When it comes to Rock I am so blank
He is the gold at the end of a rainbow
Someone who can never be reach but yet near by.


A FOREVER FRIEND

Sometimes in life,
you find a special friend;
Someone who changes your life
just by being part of it.
Someone who makes you laugh
until you can't stop;
Someone who makes you believe
that there really is good in the world.
Someone who convinces you
that there really is an unlocked door
just waiting for you to open it.
This is Forever Friendship.
When you're down,
and the world seems dark and empty,
Your forever friend lifts you up in spirit
and makes that dark and empty world
suddenly seem bright and full.
Your forever friend gets you through
the hard times, the sad times,
and the confused times.
If you turn and walk away,
your forever friend follows.
If you lose your way,
your forever friend guides you
and cheers you on.
Your forever friend holds your hand
and tells you that
everything is going to be okay.
And if you find such a friend,
you feel happy and complete,
because you need not worry.
You have a forever friend for life,
and forever has no end.
Aurthor Unknown



This poem is from JK.
He keeps me sane when I need it
He makes me smile when I need it
A hug when I am sad.
He sent me this poem after I got mad at him
for something stupid. This gives you an idea what kind of guy he is.
A true friendship I have in Jeff.


For My Best Friend
by Noelle Darlene Bass

Sometimes when I'm too depressed,
or drowning in self-doubt
I know I can call your name
and you will pull me out
You taught me I'm worth much more
than what I'd always thought
you gave me strength
and confidence
so long I had sought
You showed me I'm beautiful
both outside and in
you proved I'm not second best
time and time again
One day I will return to you
all you've given to me
I don't know in what shape or form
I promise soon you'll see
For richer, for poorer
in sickness, in health
through all thick and thin
I trust I can always count on you by Noelle Darlene Bass

The following are a few poems that I like
I hope you enjoy them too...China



We Passed It By

We never took the risk...
We did not know
All these things equal love

What is love?
Being able to open up our feelings
To one another knowing we will
not judge...
"We passed it by"

We can be miles apart
Yet feeling we are in the same room
Side by side, smiling,
Laughing, holding, touching,
"We passed it by"

We can disagree and
Still care about the others feeling,
Never wanting to hurt the other...
"We passed it by"

We can laugh,
Feeling each others happiness
Bring happiness to our hearts,
"WE passed it by"

We can be apart,
knowing that others are interested in us,
Yet we have no Interest in them that way,
"We passed it by"
We waited to long,
To find out that this is love
"We passed it by"

Not paying attention to our
inner feelings,
We never took the risk,
Because of the past risk,
That caused pain and hurt,
"We passed it by"

We never found out
How good we were for each other,
So now we're left alone
Wondering ...what we lost
"We passed it by
"





Only You

If there were words you would hear them
If I could touch you I would
place your hand on my chest
Let you feel my heart and know it's beat
Let you sense the love you stir in me..

Only You

You bring me hope like I have not known
You give me peace that I have not felt
You occupy my mind, my heart, my time
And you are worth each passing breath

What I wouldn't give to be with you
To touch your hand, to watch your chest rise
And fall with each precious breath
To watch your beautiful eyes take me in
To see your cheeks lift with your smile
To catch the tear that falls from your chin
The love I would know with your thumb on my cheek
Your breath on my ear, fingers brushing hair from
My face.

To feel your gentle touch , your soft lips
Beautiful you , my perfect you
To hear your voice say my name
To watch you sleep, touch your face
I'd share it all with you
I'd give you this precious love
If you could really be this real...

Friend -N- Confidant

You are half the world away,
And my today is your tomorrow.
I have never seen your face,
Nor heard words from your lips.
I do not know your sounds of laughter,
or the softness of your sigh.

I have not a clue as to who you are,
or the customs for which you live.
I do know that you are kind and sweet,
You are a thoughtful and caring soul.
You think of others before yourself,
All others young and old.

These things I know about you,
Even though we have never met,
I have learned this by coming home
Each day and finding you here.
You are not here in body and soul,
But as a lighted rectangle.
You come to me every day as
A message on my screen,
A message that I can rely on
To cheer me up and make my day.

Through a keyboard we share
Our ups and downs.
I have opened my inner self to you,
And you have to me as well.
We have traded secrets and laughs,
As well as sorrows and pain

I have never met you,
but feel as if I have known you most of my life.
To most this might sound silly,
But I assure them, it is not.
Even though we have never met,
I feel a bound between us.
A bond that shoud have taken years to build,
Yet was built in a month or two.
A bond that lifetime friends shoud have,
Although most never do.
A bond that I am glad to share with you...

This Poem is for the kids who think that they can't have fun at a party
with out beer at hand..
This is to the parent who supplied this booze,then went to bed,
not caring what the kids did or what they were going to do.
I know this parent, I know these kids.
Sure they raised the age limit to 21,
but what can you do when the parent buys it
or they find someone over 21 that will buy it for them.
There will be no stopping them if they want to drink,
but we don't have to make it easy for them either.
Another thing that is sad...
the parents of these kids knew what was going on
because this parent supplies booze all the time for her kids parties
and they did nothing to stop their kid from going.
All I could do was tell my nephew to call me if he got to drunk to drive home..
Thank God he did. Anyway, read this poem,
I am sure some of you have read it at one time or another,
But here it is again.






DEATH OF AN INNOCENT

I went to a party, Mom, I remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom, so I drank soda instead
I really felt proud inside, Mom, the way you said I would.
I didn't drink and drive, Mom, even though the others said I should.
I know I did the right thing, Mom, I know you are always right.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom, as everyone is driving out of sight.
As I got into my car, Mom, I knew I'd get home in one piece.
Because of the way you raised me, so responsible and sweet.
I started to drive away, Mom, but as I pulled out into the road,
the other car didn't see me, Mom, and hit me like a load.
As I lay there on the pavement, Mom, I hear the policeman say
the other guy is drunk, Mom, and now I'm the one who will pay.
I'm lying here dying, Mom....I wish you'd get here soon.
How could this happen to me, Mom? My life just burst like a balloon.
There is blood all around me, Mom, and most of it is mine.
I hear the medic say, Mom, I'll die in a short time.
I just wanted to tell you, Mom, I swear I didn't drink.
It was the others, Mom. The others didn't think.
He was probably at the same party as I.
The only difference is, he drank and I will die.
Why do people drink, Mom? It can ruin your whole life.
I'm feeling sharp pains now. Pains just like a knife.
The guy who hit me is walking, Mom, and I don't think it's fair.
I'm lying here dying and all he can do is stare.
Tell my brother not to cry, Mom. Tell Daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven, Mom, put "Daddy's Baby" on my grave.
Someone should have told him, Mom, not to drink and drive.
If only they had told him, Mom, I would still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter, Mom. I'm becoming very scared.
Please don't cry for me, Mom. When I needed you, you were always there.
I have one last question, Mom, before I say good bye,
"I didn't drink and drive, so why am I the one to die?"
This is the end Mom
I wish I could look you in the eye
To say these final words
"I LOVE YOU AND...GOODBYE"

Thank you mnmf1.
This was really nice...China








They say hello, they stop and stare,
They give money, but do not care,
They say they love, they say they fear,
They say they will, another year,
Illusions...





This was given to me by a special friend of mine.
He always knows when my sprit needs a little lift.
Some how, without a word, he always knows.


"I'll Be There For You"

If you've got secrets you want to tell,
we can talk all day long.

If your dreams get broken somehow,
I'll remind you that you belong.

If you need some place to hide,
you can hold my hand for a while.

If your sky begins to fall,
I'll stay with you 'til you smile.

Whenever you need space,
there's my room - you can take it.

If someone breaks your heart,
together we'll unbreak it.

When you feel sad or empty inside,
I'll show you you're not alone.

If you get lost out there,
I'll come and take you home.

I'll go with you somewhere else,
when you need to get away.

And when nothing seems to be going right,
and you need a friend...
~ I'll Stay ~






~Once In A Lifetime~

Once in a lifetime
A special love comes your way
Treasure and keep it always safe
For it may not come another day.

You'll know it's truly love
When your heart just can't forget
No matter time nor distance
You'll remember the night you met.

Every word and every smile
Is etched into your heart
You pray there never comes a time
When you may have to part.

Even then...That once in a lifetime love
Will stay forever in your heart and dreams
Destined to live within you
Till the end of your life and beyond it seems.

Arthur Unknown
