Woe is Me By: Noah Eaton 1/20/02 I have no friends at school I have none close to my home Woe is me I am all alone Graduation is coming I’ve lost all my youth Woe is me What more could I lose? My peers want me to shut up To be a man and forsake my dreams Woe is me I just want to live my destiny I just want to be loved I just want to be meaningful to something Woe is me I’m still struggling… [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (01-20-2002 12:02 PM).] |

Noah- Very sad. Your writing is usually very upbeat, so I was surprised to see this. I hope your struggles end soon. Nice writing. Dave |

I have no friends at school I have none close to my home Woe is me I am all alone ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One good, honest friend is all anyone needs. Make one... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Graduation is coming I’ve lost all my youth Woe is me What more could I lose? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'll be 52 in May. You haven't lost your youth. How many people would love to be your age (whatever it is) you're free to move around, two legs to carry you anywhere you please and fingers to type. You are not old. We only lose when we give up. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My peers want me to shut up To be a man and forsake my dreams Woe is me I just want to live my destiny ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So what? Doesn't matter a rip what people "want" Only you can control your destiny. So take control. If someone comes at you, get out of your woe...and go...in the other direction. Just wanting something doesn't make it happen. DO IT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I just want to be loved I just want to be meaningful to something Woe is me I’m still struggling… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Then do it. Everyone wants to be loved. How can you be so sure you aren't? Everyone is struggling and I hate to tell you this but it never ends. You will always struggle. When you cease to struggle you will be dead. You're not dead, old or unloved. Now write some poetry, ok?  Kathleen--(Kay) |

Be true to yourself and true to your heart, Noah...others cannot make you live their lives....Just always be true to you and write and find your dreams.**big hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

I guess the real Noah must have felt a bit like this, dwarfed by destiny, raped by the guilt, why me? Yet, he saved the whole world. |

I like what catalinamoon said...You've only just begun...and we can only be who we are...so find your gifts and use them...you certainly have been using your gift of writing...James |
