    Blessed is...

    Blessed is the heart, not afraid to love deeply.
    Pure is the soul that lives life sweetly.
    Seeing the world through rose coloured glasses,
    Cherishing seconds, as each minute passes.

    Content is thee, who in dark remainds bright.
    Good will to he, who in fog still has sight.
    Intelligents will come after mistakes have been made,
    Learning from doing, making wrong's fade.

    Strength is awarded when suffering bared,
    A hand held protected, when compassion shared.
    Never taking for granted, leaves one thankful.
    Holding close to their heart, everything they are greatful.

    People are heard, when to others they listen.
    Respect is gained, when respect is risen.
    Loud is the voice, that sometimes speaks weakly.
    Blessed is the heart, not afraid to love deeply.

    Broken wings of destruction
    by Tabby

    Broken wings that hang wet from the rain
    A beautiful angel weeping in the muddy ground
    Crying in her hands from all of the pain
    But gives off a glow that lights everything around

    Trying to help the world from its hatred and pain
    when she went to earth the people did not want her there
    They attacked she escaped for she was to be slain
    All she wanted was to help all she did was really care

    But the world was so full of darkness and crime
    That no help from an angel could even bring the good out
    Not even a child of heaven so beautifully sublime
    These people of this world no longer knew what love was about

    Suddenly a voice called out to the angel "come its to late"
    She looks up at the sky with her pretty, tear stained face
    "what then"she asks the voice "what then will be there fate?"
    "destruction"the voice replies" thats the fate of the human race"....

    (an angel comes to earth to repair the things we have done and what did we do we didnt want it
    so in other words this poem is the meaning of life and everything we have done to it wars crime etc.)

    Kiss The Stars

    Don't be discouraged by what people say
    Don't let words like that drive you away

    Don't cry because you think nothing will help
    Don't give up on your dreams cause you don't believe in yourself

    When you want to feel better,yet you feel your dreams are destroyed....
    Remember what I told you

    Kiss the stars
    No matter how far
    They will always be there
    No matter where you are

    Feel the moon
    Beneath your feet
    Taste the air
    Its always sweet

    Smile when you're crying
    Not when you're alone
    Just pretend
    You never left home

    Become what you want
    If thats what you wish
    Don't fall down
    When you feel your heart lift

    Don't pretend to be someone you don't want to be
    Don't forget how to be a person like me
    To be like me you have to kiss the stars
    You'll always be near them no matter how far

    You don't die at funerals,you just move on
    You realize the people you love are too almost gone
    You are born again at gods will
    Never broken or bent or killed by a thrill

    Don't be who everyone wants you to be
    Be what god made you (THE BEST YOU CAN BE)

    Inspiration often comes in the smallest things
    But exactly one of these stars helped me earn my wings

    Don't fall down when you try to get up
    Just smile and do all this kind stuff
    You can be depressed,or optimistic-
    It doesn't matter as long as you get with it.

    Be happy with who you are
    And after you read this start kissing the stars
    Maybe you to will get a gift of wings
    Exactly given by these heavenly things

    Close your eyes,hear the wind
    It has my voice surrounded
    You'll never lose hope in the things you will leave
    But remember thats what you wanted

    We all have a little insecurity,
    Something that we do not like
    But know you were made special
    And we're not all alike

    We were all made unique
    So we shouldn't live in fear
    Of what other people think
    And everything you hear

    Not everyone's judgments
    Are always precise
    You have a choice
    To listen to their advice

    It doesn't mean to change yourself
    Because the way you are is fine
    When you show your true colours
    That is when you truly shine

    It doesn't matter what you look like
    Or what people think and say
    Acting like yourself
    Will make it a better day

    You don't have to pretend
    Or be fake, at all
    You should be someone you're proud of
    And be able to stand tall

    No need for to cover up
    To hide your minor flaws
    Your inner beauty will shine through
    And it will show all and all.

    It's your qualities that truly count
    Your talents and personality
    It's your actions and words
    And your originality

    People who are your friends
    Should like you for who you are
    You shouldn't have to be like them
    Just to be a star

    So be who you are
    And don't tell lies
    To be comfortable with yourself
    You can't wear a disguise

    In the end it doesn't matter
    So be comfortable in you own skin
    They're not all judging you so,
    Always remember beauty lies within.

    You left me and i dont know why.
    You never explained why you left me.
    And every night i began to cry,
    and i lost everything i could ever see.

    You were my friend,
    and I miss you every day.
    I thought you'd be here till the end,
    and be my friend in every way.

    There isnt a day that goes by,
    when i realise that you made me smile.
    And you said you'd be here until i die,
    and now you were here for a little while.

    What happened to us,
    What did we do wrong.
    I know i'm making such as fuss,
    but i think of you all day long.

    I want you hear to look out for me.
    Hold me close when i am sad.
    The pain i feel is all you see,
    and i bet you are very glad.

    You hurt me once and dont do it again,
    i'm sorry for being your friend,
    i have to get rid of all this pain,
    and help my heart to mend
