    Why has this happened?
    by Alyson

    My troubles are long gone
    Now I'm standing here
    In this desolate world
    Alone and abandoned

    All around me are the ruins
    Of once grand buildings
    Broken and shattered
    Until they no longer exist

    The harsh winds blow dust
    Across the face of this vast land
    Leaving the fields barren
    Where food no longer grows

    Most rivers have run dry
    Leaving behind cracked earth
    That screams in the night
    For help

    Tears slide silently down my cheeks
    As I look at what this worlds become
    Its no longer grand or beautiful
    But dry and unforgiving

    Why has this happened?
    I say its because of our sins
    All the wrongs that we've done
    And all the beliefs we've held against others

    *This holds a message can you find it?

    ~The Girl~
    By: Julie Harris

    The girl is walking down a path
    with shadows of death above
    covering the light that
    she never seems to see

    Her life is black
    along with her heart
    She learns to live with the black
    She seems to know nothing else

    She walks down that path
    with signs of death above
    Happieness in her mind
    is a joke so she frowns

    She thinks about death
    the thought of suicde is fun
    Sliting her wrists
    and shoting that gun

    I never loved
    I never saw the light
    I never was happy
    I am such a fright
    Nobody will cry
    So tonight Im going to shot this gun under my chin and say one last goodbye

    These were her last words
    she wrote to everyone that
    has walking in and out of her life

    She took that gun
    her hands so still
    and said a final goodbye
    and went for the kill

    She shot a bullet
    right up her head
    as that girl
    falls down on the ground

    Her twin finds the body
    and the note that lye with
    she reads the note as
    she crys to herself

    She says to her died sister
    "Im not a twin without you
    so the other should die too"

    So she took a knife
    and slit her wrists
    till the life of the other girl
    could no longer exsist

    Still Daddy

    She wasn't bad, always listened
    Beautiful and innocent
    I'll miss the loving trance of her eyes
    Her howling on falling over
    I didn't do it purposefully
    It was just a 'a bit of fun'
    My child is still a virgin in the real world
    Wide eyed and curious
    With nobody to guide her
    Help her, stand beside her

    I didn't mean it, honest
    Its killing me to lose her
    I'll keep in touch, that's what I'll do
    Phone her up everyday, month, twice a year
    The hatred swelling in her eyes isn't real
    She's just a child, doesn't understand
    Too young, maybe she'll forget
    I'm still Daddy

    She probably won't know I'm gone
    Just carry on skipping in the park
    Laughing when she's tickled
    Shame those tickling hands won't be mine
    She must know I love her
    She's not stupid, gets that from me

    She had to understand and be big girl
    I'm a man, not allowed to cry
    I'll still be there
    Its her mother's fault, blame her
    My love for my baby will always be there
    Shameful as I look
    Crushing her dreams is hard for me aswell

    This is not goodbye
    by Tabby

    Crying by his bedside my tears flow endlessly
    I held his hand so tightly never wanting to let go
    Trying to not think about what is about to be
    I look up at him trying to not let my sadness show

    His eyes are closed his breathing is slow and heavy
    I run my hands through his thick, dark, brown hair
    His handsome face is so pale with the color gray
    That I begin to cry even harder thinking it isn't fair

    Sickness is taking my true love away from me
    Draining away his energy happiness and light
    But not stealing our love away from each other
    That is the one thing that he was able to fight

    His eyes slowly open and he turns toward me
    He smiles a weak smile and touches my cheek
    I feel myself breakdown and burst into sobs
    trying to say don't die but I could no longer speak

    he grabs my hand and pulls me to him
    reaching for my face he brings me into a kiss
    then he hugs me with such a weak embrace
    I hug him so tight never wanting to end this

    Suddenly he lets go I pull myself slowly up
    He looks at me with such sadness in his eyes
    "I love you sweetheart"he says to me
    "I love you but there will be no goodbyes"

    "I love you to" I sob into his shoulder
    I lay on his chest hearing his heart as I cry
    I feel his breathing slowly fade away
    As i sob to myself I say "its ok this is not goodbye".....

    S.O.S by Alice

    Im saying that im scared
    im saying someone help me
    im saying i cant cope
    but no one understands

    i cry myself to sleep
    i miss you all so bad
    I want to tell somebody
    but no one understands

    i need a helicopter
    or a rescue plane
    to fly in here and save me
    but no one understands

    i want someone to love me
    to put their arm around me
    to say that it'll be okay,
    but noone understands.

    i dont know how to tell them
    why should i try at all
    its best to keep it hidden
    because noone understands.

    Are You Listening?

    These are my words....are you listening?
    Maybe you’re tired....of hearing.
    Would that make it disappear....being in denial?
    Kind of would make you....feel better about things.

    Could I forget knowing....the things that I learned?
    The secrets that I’ve kept....without meaning to.
    The lies I have told so that....you can keep on pretending.
    Could I forget remembering....seeing everything in my dreams?

    These are my words....will you understand them?
    Hold me while I explain....how much everything has hurt.
    I need you to hear me screaming....instead of living in silence.
    I’ve been locked in silence....for way too long.

    I need to talk but....what words do I choose?
    How could words....fail me for the very first time?
    What did I do wrong....and could I have changed it?
    Would everything have been different....are you listening?

    Please do not push me away....I can not be hurt anymore.
    I don’t need to feel like another....number. Another fact.
    These waves of reactions are false....hope.
    These are my words....are you listening?

    Obscene
    by Emma

    Plain to see a face,
    Obscure another ass,
    Bright when she wants,
    Rape to shatter glass,

    Clothes are half off anyway,
    Why not do it now?
    Want to see the darkness?
    Let me show you how,

    Give someone posession,
    Scream to break your voice,
    Want to feel the night?
    Pressure without a choice,

    Find hate in those you love,
    Throw it at yourself,
    Want to feel emotion?
    Have 'emo' on your shelf,

    Grasp at something true,
    More then you'll ever be,
    Want to feel the bleeding?
    Act blind then turn to see,

    "Fuck me" is written on your lips,
    "Fuck you" is on mine,
    Want more then to be fingered?
    Say " Everything is fine,"

    Cause you can't have a guy,
    Torture more lethal then to die,
    "Help me I'm fucked up,"
    "Kill me, Kill me, no let me cry,"

    A tide is breaking inside,
    Your plastic fake a shrine,
    You felt something move today,
    A baby, his or mine?

    SHE NEVER EXPECTED...

    Can anyone tell me, why is she crying?
    why is she talking about dying?
    She is struggling with a pain inside,
    she is trying a lot but not able to hide.

    She did no mistake and no crime she committed,
    but her fault is that all she expected.
    Her expectations were too high,
    crossing the limits and may be above the sky.

    Love and happiness is all she wanted to share,
    but the guy did not bother and not even cared.
    She expected him to understand her a little bit,
    but made a mistake and now she is going through it.

    Her dreams and hopes are all broken and scattered,
    all this is worst and nothing can be better.
    Her emotions were used to make fun of,
    he played with her and his love was a show-off.

    Her feelings no more resides in her heart,
    she is crying inside and dying apart.
    The result can be so so unexpected,
    again she never expected...

    To my daddy...
    by Latasha

    Daddy today at school a boy asked me if I believed in god,
    With a smile on my face I said, "Yes."
    Just like you wanted me to daddy.
    I never realized my answer would cost me my life.

    The boy pulled the trigger,
    Without thinking twice.
    He made me drown in my sea of blood,
    As I wonder how he could be so cruel.

    But daddy I know I made you proud,
    And I forgive this boy,
    He made a mistake,
    And one day daddy he will pay.

    Daddy, whats happening to me?
    My voice is going faint,
    And I can barely see you any more.
    Daddy, I'm getting to weak.

    Daddy, I'm going to be with mommy in heaven.
    Please tell everyone I will be OK,
    And tell sister and brother I love them,
    And one day we will meet again,
    Just like you told me we would daddy.

    **this is about a girl who died because she believed in god...*
