Seal It With A Kiss

By: Author Unknown

I wish I could really be;
Everything you swear you see in me.
I'd be a hero;
Not a zero.
Someone worthy of your love,
And when I die, I'd go to Heaven above.
I'd be able to fix all your harms,
Just by wrapping you up in my arms.
Your hurt, I could defeat it with one kiss,
My eyes could mesmerize you in to sweet bliss.
My voice could sooth your worst fears,
I wouldn't be the cause for any of your tears.
You'd feel my touch, even when I wasn't there,
And I'd be able to show how much I care.
But in reality,
This could never be.
Because of me, you've cried.
I'm not a hero, I've lied.
Kept things to myself as I hid in a shell.
You deserve better, I'm hardly worthy for Hell.
I wasn't there to hold you,
When you needed me to.
These lips have been unfaithful,
And my eyes reflect how I'm ungrateful.
I gave you more reasons to lose sleep,
I promised things I don't think I can keep.
But even as you know all this,
You tell me you love me, and seal it with a kiss...

A Boy and Girl

By: Forgotten.truce

A boy and a girl,
The best of friends.
From elementary to high school
From beginning to end.
Through all those years
Their friendship grew
They both felt the same,
But neither knew.
Each waking moment
Since the day they met.
They both loved each other
Sunrise to sunset.
He was all she had
In her terrible life.
He was the one
Who kept her from the knife.
She was his angel,
She made him smile.
Though life threw him curves,
She made it all worth while.
Then one day
Things went terribly wrong.
The next few weeks
Were like a very sad song.
He made her jealous
On purpose he tried.
When the girl asked,"Do you love her?"
On purpose he lied.
He played with jealousy
Like it was a game.
Little did he know
Things would never be the same.
His plan was working
But he had no clue.
How wrong things would go,
The damage he would do.
One night she broke down,
Feeling very alone.
Just her and the blade,
No one else home.
She dialed his number,
He answered,"Hello"
She told him she loved him
And hung up the phone.
He raced to her house
Just a minute too late.
Found her lying in blood,
Her heart had no rate.
Beside her was a note,
In it her confession.
Her love for this boy,
Her only obsession.
As he read the note,
He knelt down and cried.
Grabbed her knife,
That night they both died.
She was found in his arms,
Both of them dead.
Under her note
His handwriting said:
"I loved her so,
She never knew.
All this time
I loved her too."

A Mother is....

By: Jenica Patel

A mother is a real friend,
One who will be there 'til the end.
A mother's love is true,
No matter what I say or do.
She's pretty smart and fun,
And she helps me get my homework done.

"I Love You Too." By: Author Unknown

She had always like him
But never truly knew why
He never talked to her
His friends had made her cry
She smiled at him in the hall
He just turned his head
He did not care about her
Is what he always said
But she kept her chin up
And she loved him still
Because she knew what was inside
A hole that she could fill
His friends soon caught word
Of her feelings toward him
They found it hysterical
But her love did not dim
She knew that she was better
Than what they thought she was
But still her heart was his
For reasons she knew not of
She slowly became more forlorn
Slipping deep into a hole
He was still ignoring her
Breaking her delicate soul
But her love did not falter
She always thought of him
But all the rumors about her
Put her closer to the brim
On the final day
His friends played a trick
Told her that he loved her
Just to see her tick
Sadly she believed them
And she was overjoyed
Little did she know
That it was all a ploy
She went up to him
To make sure that he knew
That she knew how he felt
And that she loved him too
He did not understand
So all he did was stare
Telling her repeatedly
That he really did not care
She was finally over the edge
She knew it could not be true
I thought they said he loved her
But deep insde she knew
She could not comprehend
How to go on living her life
So she went in to the kitchen
Pulled out the sharpest knife
She screamed into the air
This is not how it should be
She screamed all the things
That she wished that he could see
She spoke of her love
She cried of her pain
She whispered of what happened
How it could never be the same
And with her last strength
She scribbled her final note
She explained everything
And this is what she wrote:
Take the shining knife,
And cut open my wrists
Watch the blood flow out
It couldve ended with a kiss
Take the bloody knife
Write words into my skin
Tell me that you hate me
Make the pain begin

"I Love You Too." Part II (Continued)

Take the knife and hold it up
So that everyone can see
That this is the pain
You were always causing me
She watched the blood pour out
Collapsing on the floor
Little did she know
That he was at the door
He did not get an answer
As he screamed her name
He told her he was sorry
What he said was really lame
He did not want to give up
He wanted her to know
That he really did like her
Just did not let it show
He did not care about his friends
They were not his anymore
So please, won't you please
Just open the dam* door
He walked to the window
Saw her lying there
He pounded on the glass
Crying in despair
He broke through the glass
And knelt down on the floor
Looking at the girl
He had always adored
Desparately calling for help
She was still alive
He tried to bandage wounds
Please God let her survive
He held her close
As the ambulence drew near
I really do love you
He whispered in her ear
Please don't give up
I'll try to help you through
We will make it work
You know I love you too.
