dont worry this happend a long time ago, this poem is still very powerful to me still What do you want of me? By charlie herring Deaths sweet song Calls to me again This world of hate would soon be gone Gone the pain Gone the fighting of friends and family Gone the injustice Gone the life from me It would be better never to have lived If I had died as just a little kid I would never have led this life Never have felt this pain Never have felt this love If I had died as a child What courses would there lives take Would they have gone on? Where they meant to be great Am I holding them back? I know I am a nusesnse An annoyance at best How I wish this life would end How I wish I could be with him With my father and my friend My god and my savior They would keep me from this pain They would not let my blood be spilt Love everlasting How I wish I had that Death tastes bitter But the fruit is sweet Would they forgive me? If I left Would they care? Should I fell regret? I know I bother them I know I am a burden This life I am not long for I want to go home To a loving family And the love of friends But I am not meant to die But am I meant to go on? Should I watch as a spectator? Or be a peacemaker Among my friends This hurts me inside the discion is not clear My God give me guidance send down your spirit Fill me with fire For life For love For you I need this life no more I give it up I turn it over Not my will But your will be done work like you don't need the money, dance like no one's watching, and love like you've never been hurt |

WOW!!! well done, that was powerful!!! I don't know whether or not the moderaters will take it out though. (Note to moderaters: NO, I am not someone who will complain if this thread is removed. I am NOT a nuisance and it's Ron's home = his rules). But, yeah, I loved the poem. ....peace as a primary objective is dangerous because it implies that we would sacrifice anything for the sake of it.... Robert Kaplan |

I'm glad you know that He doesn't condone for us to hurt ourselves the least. For it definitely is not an answer to any of our problems. You have expressed your sentiments ever so strongly on this poem. Be strong, help yourself first, then He'll help you. So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S. |

This was so powerful!! Very amazing work here. I am impressed. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |
