ALAN
As you lay there
dying
I sit hear crying
Wishing I could do something
Knowing there is nothing
I can do or say.
I wish there
was a price to pay
To make you all better
But there’s not.
So I’ll right you a letter
And give you my hope about a paradise -
Life is not just
a role of the dice.
By Lilly Mandrell.
YOU
I stare in my mirror every day
and am applied at what I see.
Every day my big brown eyes
stare sadly back at me.
I don't know what I'm doing here
and why God loves me so
but just because he holds me close
is how I come to know.
I wander aimlessly around
and think about Life's secret.
Where is the line of moderation
and when will I know I crossed it?
Passion comes and passion goes
in my small, chaotic life.
I kick and scream and yell inside
to relieve myself of strife.
So, this I want to tell you
and you must
forever believe:
I love you
so much because you are
someone who
helps me achieve.
You encourage
me in every way and
every possible
style.
Just reading
your friendly words
always makes
me smile.
Everything
you are to me
is more than
I could ever ask.
You help
me come from out of my shell
and step
out from behind the mask.
You are so
precious to me, dear friend
I hope we
never part
Because you
hold a special place
deep inside
my heart.
