Also it is red not blue, does this make a difference?

Though I Never Met You


When I finally met your family you had already passed
So young you were and it all happened so fast
You were only 16 so much life ahead
Then the day after easter they got that phone call
saying you were dead
I did not know you then i wasnt even around
But from what i hear of you your charector was so profound
I see your families pain its like a part of them is missing
And i hear all the stories about you as theyre reminiscing
They tell me how good you were and how much fun you had
They really do love you i havent heard anything bad
The night before your cousins wedding i remember the awareness
how you were not going to be there and all of that unfairness
Tears started to fill my eyes and the pain i began to bare
I couldnt hold it in anymore as i said my little prayer
God how could this happen i cried inside my head
This boy was only 16 and now that he is dead
His family goes on without him and feels this pain within there soul
And now within my heart i feel this empty hole.
He should be here with us to you thats all i can say
He should be celebrating with us on this very special day
But the idea that you had is much bigger than i had planned
And you had to call him home and that i understand
i felt a little better as i talked to God that night
and i felt this overwhelming peace that everything will be alright
the wedding was very beautiful with lots of celebration
then all of a suddon i had this temptation
i looked around the room to admire everyone
and i couldnt help but notice i was having so much fun
and as i looked my eyes fell upon a lonely empty chair
and i had a sense of sadness that nothing could compare
i couldnt help but smile and shed a little tear
for i thought of you that moment and knew that you were near
its funny how things turn out and who will bring you through
though we never met each other i still feel the loss of you
and sooner or later my life will come to an end
and when that happens i will definately meet you then.

Dedicated to David Rock.. Died at 16 the day after easter. Got together with his uncle a year after his death. Though i never met him i know who he is.

I had to write this for LA this year in poetry. It was a response poem to a picture of a sunset:

Hiding behind the clouds.
Illuminating the sky.
The day is over.

Let me know what you think!

(posted this months back in wrong section so not many viewed it)

I sit here amongst the darkness
Scared, alone and tormented
A rusted unused weapon I brush upon cold lips
Shaking, trembling and crying
No longer will life taunt me
Will this deadly weapon shatter the skull?
Walls blood stained, sanguineous
Stiff fingers clench the trigger
Peace and agony marry
Tear filled eyes close as the mind clears
The trigger is pulled
All memories hope and dreams
Are gone

Burnt

A serpent doesnt know its scary, it just seems to be,
Likewise scorpions and lizards too, all of them you see.
A Gila Monster doesn't know, he's uglier than sin,
Likewise some human beings, kept locked up in a pen.

Deep inside we all have things, that scare us half to death,
If ever they were to escape, like a madman strung on meth.
I keep mine all caged and locked, safely tucked away
If he were to ever escape, I don't know what I'd say.

He's more evil than Charles Manson, a bulet to the brain,
He'd make John Wayne Gacy, seem awfully damn lame.
You see my monster is alive, and grows stronger every day,
I fear one day he'll snap his chains, the world his to slay.

So just remember that I warned, he's coming here one day,
Vlad the Impalers got nothing on him, and he's here to stay.
Death will not come quickly, in fact the pain will be real slow,
You see my monster is sadistic, A fact you need to know.

Is it true that the Germans made a serious strategic blunder by holding forces in reserve until it was obvious that "D-Day" was the only Allied invasion operation, and not a "feint"?

Would an immediate counter-attack by all Germans forces have annililated the Allies?

Was the possibilty of a "feint" sound miltary reasoning? When the Germans did committ they held the Allies in check for a prolonged period.

As a percentage, how much time do you require alone and how much time do you require socially?

What prevents you from meeting your quota?

In memory of my dad, i wrote this today.

A Letter to my Dad.

Dad, I want to tell you how much it hurt
That you where never there, when I needed you
So much pain and agony, I felt dismay
In silence tears rolled down night and day

I know you loved me, I felt it in my heart
Your unorthodox manners and simple ways
That Sunday walk in the park, the month of May
Those sweet memories never go away

It was hard to understand, why you were not home
It was mystifying and yet I somehow knew
That those special moments between you and I
Will be there with me, as I grew up

Memories flash till today, seeing you at school
Unaware of your presence, watching from afar
Carrying on, jumping, screaming having tons of fun
You must’ve love me to see me smile

One day, you left without saying good-bye
It hurt so badly, I almost cried
“He’s gone,” I kept saying in my little mind
I had to go home and tell my mom

I know you are in heaven, watching over me
I have felt your presence, in moments of despair
I hope some day I can hug you again and again
Dad, I just wouldn’t have it any other way!

Computers, cars, etc. have made life better in some aspects but they also have negative aspects. Does the bible say anything about technology?
I bet no one during the 1800s would have imagined the world as it is now...

Suppose that a famous billionaire told you, "I will give you a $50 million mansion with the latest technology, appliances, gadgets, and toys for you and your family, but only if you now give me your house and all its contents (furniture, toys, photo albums, family heirlooms, etc.), for me to demolish and burn up. Do you agree to this deal?"

Although they were good men, did they accurately represent the status of the average person at that time of our country's history? Both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson lived in mansions. Most were wealthy and they all attended lavish events and ceremonies.
