There is no book written entitled “How To Date A Marine For Dummies”. However there should be. The life of the Marines and how their spouses or spouses to be live is something that cannot be predicted. Nor can the people entering these lives expect what they are going to face or what is going to...
Natalie put on her princess dress. It was pink with sparkles all over. It had a large poofy skirt that was itchy but she didn’t care. She slipped on her mom’s matching high heels; they had a big diamond across where her toes went. Then Natalie placed her own pearl necklace upon her neck. Her mot...
Dear Lord.
Here is my wish
Bring me death today
Let it painless
And let it be quick
My life is done and over
I am tired,
Weak
Dear Lord
Grant my wish
Take the pain away
I hate
Please remove me
From your un-heavenly earth
It’s my time
Give me wings
To fly
Dear Child
It is n...
A blazing
Bright white light surrounding me
Hovering in the sky
Above the clouds
Landing
On the fluff of a cloud
I watch the world
Below me
Descending
Shutting my eyes
Imagining no madness
Just silence...

My dear Manny
Someday you’ll understand
Why the cats want the birds
Or why birds live in a cage
My dear Manny
Handsome in your new suit
Your hair combed so neatly
Please smile for me
My dear Manny
There is no need to worry
About the itchy suit
Or the hungry cats
This will all be ov...
A day came when I was taken away by awe
Your hands took mine and held them tight
Kissed my lips and made me warm
Made me feel like the world could not touch me, like I was protected from everything
Time passed I was still in awe
I still had hands holding mine
I always felt warm when I receiv...
Wandering eyes
Secure all lies
That rests in your eyes
Where everything lies.
Let secrets flow
Grant illusions to run
Let their truths flow
Enable them to run.
Connections start to form
Helping me understand
The true reality starts to form
Do you understand?
Lies kept in your eyes...
If not a better time to want the truth to be told
To have it finally come out and be heard
For everyone to know what the truth is
Let those be warned; whom want the truth
It shall harm
Beware!
To be a Puritan; is to be pure
Bonnet must be worn
Dress must be dull
Church must be attended
...
The world is not rainbows and butterflies
I can’t compromise about my lives views for you
I offered to stay, but I rub you the wrong way, what can I do
Love now fleeting
Hearts receding
I can’t bear to stay
So I’m gone back to real world
Back to the rat race, back to the real girls,...

Always remember
when the earth turns
when the stars shine
when the sun rises
That a day goes by
in which thoughts
do not contain you
always remember...
I never stopped loving you
From the day I met you
To the day I die
When I met you
My heart stopped
The earth stood still
My eyes stood wide
My thoughts ran wild
I was speechless
I went to say hello
I spoke no words
I was in awe
Your eyes drew m...
Don’t know what love is?
You don’t know what love is
Don’t tell me you do
Because you don’t
You don’t know that feeling you get
When the person that makes you feel amazing holds you
That causes chills to go up your back
Never wanting them to let go of you
...
The day I met you
I was unsure of everything that I knew in this world.
You put me in a state of awe.
You made my thoughts run wild
Question everything
Your eyes made me feel as if I could float
You held my hand
I shivered
I blushed bright red
What could I...
Men in green suits appeared on the screen
People in stripped pajamas appeared
I sad and feared
Rested my face on your shoulder
You rested your head
On top of mine
Reassuring me
I knew I would be alright
The screen went blank
The lights turned on
My head still on y...
You said you loved me
You laughed in my face
When I say I love you
You say hahaha
Do you think it’s a joke?
That I say I love you
Yet I don’t laugh
When you say I love you
Maybe I should
Hahaha
I don’t believe your words anymore
You don’t love me
All you did was say it
So you...
I needed you
Where were you?
Leaving me hanging
On edge
I tell you my heart’s stories
I tell you the whole book
And your response
Crushes me
You say you have feelings
You say you care
You say you don’t wan t to hurt me
You say all these things
How do I know
What you say
Is tr...
I sit along the park bench , sitting there just thinking of the past mistakes that I have rendered . I lost him & I lost my life that once was perfect.
My life used to be so simple. Wake up , take a shower, paint on the face to show who I needed to be, put on the clothes with the names everyon...
Love is when
your toes curl
your heart starts pounding
and constently thinking about him
when he speaks
chills are on my neck
me he holds my hand
I feel the sparks
I look into his eyes
and see me
I see his love for me
the love that will always be there
When he holds me

Someday I hope to find
what all girls look for
the one who holds the
key to my heart
I hope we
are the perfect match
so we become one
key equals opening my heart
When my heat is open
great things will
happen for the pair of us
key equaled an open heart
My heart stays open
