I hope this isn't offensive ... it's just some stuff i wrote when i was in school and i felt pretty much as you describe yourself feeling. The difference was i never handled it the way you do ... i was never strong enough .. so anyway here they are: The world just seems to keep on turning As my world slowly falls apart The sun just seems to keep on burning while the warmth is disappearing from my heart Why won't my tears fall? Why can't i cry? Can i do nothing but ask the question why? no single problem just disappears it simply hides away beneath your dreams and fears ___________________________ They ripped off the butterfly's pretty wings When she'd only just learned to fly they threw the pretty wings away and made the butterfly cry they told her she was just like them now she had no pretty wings she'd become a stereotype of all god's other things She'd driven them insane with jealousy till they could take no more so they took what made her special and crushed it on the floor ________________________ i think i'll stop there .. just know Lelly, that in now way are you alone. ------------------ "just another lost child, trying to find my way" |

Those were really beautiful and sad. I especially like the one about the butterfly. I live on the faith that there is always someone out there who feels worse than you do. I guess its actually true. I never realized all the strength I had until everyone brought it to my attention. Thank you. ![]() |

I find it sad when people think they have to change you to be like them, the butterfly poem was very touching, but scribe, I for one think you still fly ![]() ------------------ Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for awhile and leave footprints in our heart and we are never ever the same. Thank you all for leaving footprints!! |

Scribe this was so sad. Hoot is right! God made each one individual for a reason, so we weren't all the same. You fly with what He gave you! May He put your wings back! |
