I was asked a couple of questions, to decide where my faith lie. And to some of the questions, I answered with a why? Do you support abortion? No I can't say I do. Or assisted suicide? No I don't, do you? Capitol punishment was involved, in another question asked, and that one made me think a little, and remember the past. I didn't apporve of the electric chair, but I guess that now I do, And if what I've expirenced happened to you, I think that you would to. For how can someone take the life, of someone so dearly loved, without being punished, while she watches from above. I don't believe in fighting, but it happens anyway, and if I thought it would help the world, I would take all weapons away. But there will always be some questions, that will be answered with a why> and the biggest one of those right now, is why did you have to die???? ---------------------------------------------------- This is for Jesica. And I guess this poem is true. (And Justin wonders why I laugh at him when he says his life is tough. And the only reason he says that is because he has to work.)Oh Well, bye Allysa Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see. |

I like how you wrote this poem, setting up some of your beliefs and then telling why you feel that way. I can't say I believe in the use of the death penalty, but I have never had anyone close to me be murdered, and that was your point, that if that happens than you just might change you view on things. ...and i got your email but I'm not sure if I'm supposed to reply to that email address or go through your friends that you sent a while back??? Anyway, good poem ![]() "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Me!! |

Allysa, Great poem. I really liked it, I think that it goes with my personality very well, and sometimes I have to just take a moment and think about what I really believe in. Keep up the great work. Chel "True friends stab you in the front" "True love last forever" |

Allysa --- sup with the angry face? ![]() Hey, this probably is one of the best poems you've ever written. That's my opinion at least. One thing though, I do not believe in the death sentence......There is this husband and wife in the news one time. This married couple stuck out in my mind when i read your poem because all their 2 kids was killed by some killer i suppose. The thing is they made sure to tell the prosecutor and the judge that they don't want him to get a death sentence cause that's against their belief. Imagine that, the amount of pain they are going thru, they are still true to their faith.....thing about that I see no changes, wake up in the morning I ask myself, "Is life worth living or should I blast myself" TUPAC SHAKUR |

acire: the reason I want the killer (I can't even write his name) to die is because Jesica was such a sweet person and he hurt so many people when he killed her, her mother, and her brother's father, and he's trying to plead mental insanity but he even rented a car before hand b/c the ppl in the neighborhood knew what his car looked like.

Allysa, I'm really speachless, I think I've read this poem like everyday since you posted it, but I really didn't want to reply. I mean I think that this is a very heartfelt subject for you, obviously it is, and I'm not sure about saying anything 'cause I might hurt your feelings or say something wrong. Well, I just wanted to let you know that anytime you need to talk, I'm here and please don't hesitate in giving me a message. Your friend, Caz It's been raining since you left me. |
