My Salvation-

I sit alone on the cold floor,
Crying...whimpering...paying my life in tears.
I look around to see no happiness...
For allI see is deciete and hate.

Just as I think life is delivering Coup de Grace,
I feel powerful arms closing in on me.
Strangley...those arms bring warmth---they're yours!
I hear your comforting whisper, "Shhhh...chin up!"

I look into your eyes, and my world turns...
Spinning...twisting...throwing the bad away.
But...I still keep of you...for I am weak.
I am weak without your blessed friendship...

The best friend I could have is one I see.
Staring right at you...patient, caring, wise.
You're all I can ask for in a friend!!!
As if you were my own blood, I care for you more
than any human can comprehend.

I owe you so much...but all I have is this:
My promise to you, that I will help you through life...
Just as you do for me! I will pay you back!
My arms, heart and soul are always open to you!

In my waking hours, feel me giving you stregnth...
And when I'm asleep, feel me with you..
Know that no matter what happens...
I'll always be there for you as you are for me...

------------

If you guy haven't guessed yet---this poem is dedicated to somebody! But...I'm not gonna just outright say to who! All I'll let you know is this---the one person who it's deticated to...they know who they are! Um---I think this poem is fulla shot wholes...and I won't hate you if you agree! After all...I DID write this poem on the 16 hour bus-ride to Edmonton!

And as a personal note---you know who you are! And---thank you! Thank you for all that you've done...I WILL pay you back sometime! I honestly don't know where I'd be if I never met you...

~ Alex

I KNOW WHO IT'S ABOUT!!! *looks around*
Ok, no I don't know who it's about....happy?

Interesting piece though, Alex. It's nice to see a person being so good to you when your life seems more chaotic than a regular hour on Jerry Springer.

Take care and I hope things work out.
Please remember to reply to others work also.

A little birdie informed me that I haven't been replying often...  I guess I sorta dropped off the scopes for a while... ::rubs back of head nervously:: Sorry 'bout that.

Well, back to the poem, it is really good.  We all should have afriend like that, I just recently met one.  Oh, and I have NO CLUE who this is about.  Why can't ya tell me, pleez?  See Ya.

Everyone needs somebody to keep them going when there is nothing else that can.  Apparently, you found this person.  I hope that they read this and know that this is about them! It was really good!

Hmmm...I have a feeling someone guessed right! Let's ask Cherish shall we?

"Cherish...who's this poem for? Come'on Cherish...her name starts with a "C", Cherish! It ends in an "H", Cherish...come'on Cherish! Who is it Cherish?!"
"Um---me?"
"THAT'S RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!!!"

--------

Anytime Cherish! You just mean that much to me! "If I could count every thought I could think of you...there'd be more than the sands on the shore!" I'm really glad you liked it! I was worried you wouldn't! ^_^*

... oh my goodness!  That is so sweet!

Ok, Cherish... I am officially mad at you!  Grrrr!  You get all the good, sweet, mushy poetry.

I want one...

Hehe, ok, no I was just kidding.  But this is an extremely sweet poem, and Cherish is more than deserving of this!

Hey, and I love you too, Cheri!

> .....that's for you Cherish!

Oh, and Alex, while it could use some work, I enjoyed the poem. I like the way it flowed from being alone, needing her, her being there, wanting to thank her, etc. It worked. And it was sweet.

Don't worry Rhonda---yours is in the works! ~_^ Do you think I'd forget about you? For some reason---yours is tough to work with!

And Cherish, this poem that I dedicated to you will always be here...just like I will!

Others are too in love with the sound of their own voice to speak the truth...
