Poem: You will see the light... one day, by Karen

Posted on Friday November 20, 2009 by Sara Ryan

I’m looking down on the earth

The grounds cracked,

Cracked with emotion, cracked

with sole, cracked to core

Life is hard, I can see that

and death is easy, just the

guts to jump,

One week maybe two and you’re

their and your ready,

Just one push, one moment can

change your life

Just the willpower to slit

the blue wire that controls

you,

 And it’s over… your gone,

can you see me yet?

Why is it that nearly 60% of

the world’s population is in

poverty?

And why is it that they

choose to live?

Day in and day out surviving

on things that most people

take for granted

Here’s why.

Life…

Life maybe hard, its no

picnic but its real

Going to bed without food,

that’s real,

It is!

Children being raped so they

survive another day on the

streets

That’s real

But can’t you see life is all

they have; they might not

have a home to go to

Security or even love

But I can tell you this they

have me,

I may not at times be able to

do the things you want me to

do

But I promise I’m their,

always

If I had one wish just one

wish my sole would turn into

a physical feature and my

heart would be air

I would help, help you out of

this

Be strong my love, be strong

I can see you now, don’t

worry, don’t cry, I am here

And always will be

Because I am your friend,

your family, your love

Because sweetheart



I am your God! And poverty

will never separate you from

me

Never



Make a difference, give a

chance, give hope and most of

all let love conker all!!!!



                          

Make poverty history and let

the sun rise once more

Poem: Your Window, by Barin

Posted on Friday November 20, 2009 by Sara Ryan

You watch from your window,

People passing by,

Hoping that someone notices,

Your silent cry.



That familiar pain,

That invades you at night,

Slowly killing you inside,

And you can never lose its

sight.



People just can’t see,

That you’re falling apart,

They enjoy the staging,

Where you keep smiling.



You try to scream,

But you can’t ask for help,

They don’t understand,

And story’s end.

Life or Death? You Choose.

Posted on Friday August 21, 2009 by St. Johns

One day, we will all realize.
That death itself.
Is a lot simpler than we all think.
It has it's ups and downs.
But when the time comes for it, it's our time.

We will all stand by, watching the darkness cover our eyes.
With the deciet and the lies forcefully shoved into our ears.
But then we think, how do they feel?

You don't think, you just stand there and watch.
Unfeeling of the horror going through someones mind as they slowly die.
The only thing that they are thinking is, How could they? How could they just stand there, watching?

And then, when they finally die.
You realize what you have done.
Thinking about what you could have done to save that mans life.

How do you really feel? How do you honestly really feel?
About someone close to you dying without your help of healing.
They could have lived, but you chose their death for them.
You have no right to choose to live or die for another person.

Am I the only one? Am I the only one who thinks this is sufferable?
The only one who believes in life?

Show me wrong.

Do Your Eyes Lie?

Posted on Friday July 03, 2009 by St. Johns

My hearts shadow shows
The truth behind my dark blue eyes
I want to know
Do your eyes lie?

I'm trustworthy
But I have a hard time trusting
Other people
Who maybe lying capable

There are things in this world
That make us all liars
Our trust
Cannot go to any others

My faith
Does not do a thing
In what I say
Or what I truly need

The truth lies
Within my heart
That cries
As I fall apart

There's one thing I wanna know
Do your eyes lie?
Otherwise I'll just go
Hide in a corner and cry

Do your eyes... lie?
