Here are a few poems, they're all written by myself. - - Tired - I'm so tired But I can't sleep There's so much to think about And so much I want to know But maybe I'll never know these things Because I'm to tired to think about "Be prepared" "Here I come" I wish I could say that once - - Why do you and not I? - Why do you always smile? Why do you always look so nice? Why does it seem you're always happy? Why do you and not I? - - Alone - It's so scared to be alone Don't can trust somebody And it always happens When you're in trouble It's not fair - - Beautiful? - Everybody Keeps telling me How beautiful I am Why do I feel ugly than?

Halo Angels, I was just going through an old drawer of stuff and came across this notepad that I bought when I was going out with my first love. (almost two years ago now) and there was a few little writings from him to me and then I found this thing I wrote that I would like to share with all you mushy gushy romantic loving angels out there....here goes: Anniversary Written August 27/97 It was the 26th yesterday, which in a way was our 20 month anniversary of sorts. And since I don't remember the exact date of our getting back together - December 26th is still, to me, our date. Our day, in our time, in our world. Come itno that world with me again sweetheart and hold me close. I feel your arms around me like the first time we danced; and we move slowly to the music, instilling in our minds this moment for always. Oh but I felt so safe that night; and excited and thrilled and so very very...(sigh)...then you kissed me out of the blue and we were sacrificed to each other by the Gods-that-be; body, mind and soul. Oh to be touched again for the first time. To feel so unexpectantly your lips pressed hot against my own. You don't realise how important firsts are until you're far enough past them to look back upon them in awe and disbelief. Remember...... and a song drifts in and out. A catchy tune yet you can't remember for the life of you where you heard it before. In floats another, a verse is recognizable, well...almost. And out it goes - like a light yet not as a flash, as a dimmer- promising to come back one day and visit. And you know it will, but when? Next week? Next month? Next year? When? Laalaalaaa - here comes one now, is it a new tune? Birgin to one's ears? Or is it an old favorite that you could have sworn you've perhaps even hummed along with, although now the melody slips by you ever busy ears and you find yourself missing something you could not ever describe to even the best of listeners. No one but you has heard the whispers of that haunting melody...laalaaalaaallaa.... It seems to breath on the wind...laaalaalaaaa....yet again....and so it goes until you find a new song, a new energy, create a new dance, another first feeling that could never fully be comprehended. Yes, never. But we try...oh yes we do. We try beyond all other things. We try to gain back our firsts - our first steps, our first toys, our first touch, our first kiss, even our first wedding proposal...well, you get the idea. We try so hard. So instead, we create new feelings, new firsts, and accomplish new goals and trick ourselves into ignoring those little songs that drift on a wave, over the ocean of every day novelties, to reach your relaxing self on the shore and haunt you for the rest of the day. The day...December 26th - oh what a day! ===================================================== So there it is...feel free to comment.... I never remember what I write so it's like reading it for the first time....it doesn't make sense to me now but I'm sure it did then! I can feel that it did. Sorry if parts of it don't make sense. Keep your wings dry.

My heart goes out to friends and family of victims and students, teachers and faculty who had to see what happened. I am sick to my stomach from the thought of something like this happening. I know it could happen anywhere,to any school, all it takes is some one or some people to be sick enough to commit such a disgusting crime. I wish that in this day and age people could be decent enough to not do such things. How someone could go inside a school and shoot innocent people makes me angry. Just last week we had some guy go into our geneology building and shoot people killing two innocent people and injuring more. This makes me feel unsafe to walk about outside in the world. I hate this feeling more than anything. ~My heart goes out to all and my hopes go to a day when this will never happen~ Kerry ~The nameless angel~ _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

If you recieve this on that day, send it to MTV. I'm sorry, but i can't find their e-mail address, but i'm sure someone out there knows it. please pass this on. MTV has a misleading name. it is no longer Music TeleVision. it's like 4 hours of actual music a day, and there are way too many other features on that channel. There's gotta be others out there that agree on this. if you do, type your name at the bottom of this letter. eventually it will get around to mtv and they may be moved to start showing more vidoes. thank you for at least reading this, if you do not sign it. 1.
