Everything

Everything

find me here
speak to me
i want to feel you
i need to hear you
you are the light
that is leading me
to the place where
i find peace again
you are the strength
that keeps me walking
you are the hope
that keeps me trusting
you are the life to my soul
you are my purpose
you are everything
and how can i
stand here with you
and not be moved by you
would you tell me
how could it be
any better than this
you calm the storms
you give me rest
you hold me in your hands
you won't let me fall
you still my heart
and you take my breath away
would you take me in
would you take me deeper now
'cause you're all i want
you are all i need
you are everything
everything

My Oath

I was sent this little poem attached to an email from a friend who knows not what I am going through for almost a week now. I have had a hard time sharing my feelings with too many people. One for fear of how I would be treated from this point out. Two my lack of wanting to talk about it to start with. I wanted to share this poem with everyone. I do not know who wrote it and I cannot take credit for it.

Enjoy the poem and thanks to whomever wrote it.

MY OATH TO YOU...
When you are sad.....I will dry your tears.
When you are scared.....I will comfort your fears.
When you are worried.....I will give you hope.
When you are confused.....I will help you cope.
And when you are lost....And can't see the light.
I shall be your beacon.....Shining ever so bright.
This is my oath.....I pledge till the end.
Why you may ask?.....Because you're my friend.
Signed: GOD

Why just tell me why

On Thursday I woke up to the shock of my lifetime. One would think checking your email would not bring you the most horrible news you could ever imagine. Alas for me it does. Finally after at least a week of not sleeping well; I wake up do my usual online routine. I get around to checking my e-mail. Wow was that a mistake. I learned that my 1st cousin committed suicide. I have been remiss from the family since my move here. The occasional email from some family and friends back home. Since I learned this news I have myself been very depressed. (don't worry not going to off myself) I just wonder what frame of mind does one need to be in to do this. I wonder why if he had threatened this many times (again which I was unaware of) no one did any thing about it. I do however believe he now realizes that this was not the thing to do and has to work out his issues on the other side. I in no way advocate this behavior if you know someone with symptoms relating to suicide please get them help HERE



There is nothing I can do to help him now he is gone but if someone out there can benefit from this that's my biggest hope check out the links help someone you love from doing something so irreversible
