I don't know if anyone wants to read this. It's a poem, but it is personal. I thought it turned out great. You all know the situation, and I know it too well I’m joining the Army, and it’s gonna be hell I just hope you’ll all be there for me While I’m gone, please don’t quit caring for me If there was another way, you know I’d stay Just know you’ll be in my mind every single day I’ll always stay true and I’ll never forget you There’s no way I could, I got the tightest crew Ben’s been the friend I can tell whatever Late night talks, cracking jokes, and acting clever There’s Kris, my partner in crime, sharing chronic amnesia Always been there for each other, I’d do whatever to please ya Matt’s rolling with me, so I’ll forget about you Err, just joking dog, you’ve always been there too Kyle, my man, keep your sights towards God Please keep me in your prayers while I am abroad My good friend Dough, he’s always been my homie When your raps take you to the top, don’t forget you know me Crystal, you’ve been there through all the hard times I’ll never make it up to you in just one lifetime Melissa, my new found friend and my new found interest I’ll be back for you soon babe, you’re gonna be missed Darc, my dog, you’ll be my friend forever I won’t lose touch with you, you hear me, never Em, you’re in my heart, you’ll always be We fight constantly, but you mean so much to me Mom and Dad, we had a rough 18 years But I could always see the love, even through the tears Lil’ sis, I love you so much even though we always brawl Don’t grow up too fast girl, I don’t want to miss it all It’s gonna be weird to leave the North Fork group But I’ll keep on representing, throwing up the TOOP I’ll miss you all but I’ll be back in 3 Please do what you can to keep in touch with me I wanna be getting letters and receiving phone calls I’m gonna do my best to keep in touch with you all I only wanna see smiles when I leave, don’t want to see no tears Swear to God I’ll be back during those 3 years Keep me in your prayers, and I’ll keep you in mine You’ll all be my best friends till the end of time I love you all Yes, it's true, I am joining the Army at the end of the summer. I'm gonna be all I can be, or some B.S. like that. I am going to do my best to continue posting while I'm in, but it's going to be alot less. "Your anger is a gift"-Rage Against The Machine |

Jon, I thought this was great. I hope you show this to all the people you wrote this for, because I am sure it would be deeply appreciated. Alot of my friends joined the army shortly after we graduated last year and we still love them as much as ever but we miss them like crazy. I am sure your friends will feel the same for you. Good Luck in all that you do. Thanks for sharing it was a great post. Always, ~Nikki~ It takes only a minute to like someone, a hour to love someone, but a lifetime to forget them. |

Jon! I really liked this. I liked how you addressed all your friends and loved ones and said a lil something special to each and every one of them. Very nice idea. I'm sure they'd love to see what you wrote. Good luck "being all you can be." |

This did turn out well, Jon. Wow.. I don't know what to say. This poem was so sad.. yet so optimistic. I wish you the best.. good luck serving our country. You'll be awesome The two lines I loved the most in the whole poem were: "Lil’ sis, I love you so much even though we always brawl Don’t grow up too fast girl, I don’t want to miss it all" That really hit hard... I have an older brother, and to think of him going away for so long kills me. Wow.. this is a very well written poem. You addressed all your friends. *hugs* You'll be in my prayers. I hope you still come around passions a few times, just to pop in and say hi You'll be missed. Awesome work here. I really enjoyed this. --Marie You think yourself a failure, but perhaps the biggest loss is winning. |

Hey everybody, thanks for the replies. I didn't think anyone would want to reply cause it was so personal. Marie- I will definately be back to visit you guys, there are too many good people here. Ina- I will definately email you sometime. I will have to stay in touch with everyone. There will be a few months while I'm in bootcamp where I won't be able to post, but after that I will find a way to get on. Trust me, I'll be having a whole lot to talk about. God Bless Jon "Your anger is a gift"-Rage Against The Machine |

This was great! I really hope that you do great! Good luck! I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |
