life and self

in life, i do not seek or think of the untruth, but the truth,

my pass has put me on a course of correction, in this life, i have seen hurt, experienced pain, and given it just the same,

life has open my door, and hell has closed it, for i have seen love and known it's beauty, i have given all, and never recieved it back, for in these word's, i have shut it out, only letting my view, be my truth,

what is it, that is in a heart, what do i look for, that is not at my door already, i have learned it's lesson, and in the many year's of hiding, and shouting thing's, such as relationship's, maybe my door is closed, maybe my chances,have, had, has, and will never come again,

my fibel mind has put me without truth, truth in me , truth in life, and the truth to know i deserved love, maybe it is this i have wondered this earth for, and without the knowledge of me i have passed by it's dorrs,

in all want's and in all have's, i do not my worth,


this is dedicated to my sister sharon, for her heart is so true , and yet you hide behind it with scream's that roar such hatred, i'm sorry for your pass hurt's and the abuse you had to indure as a child, i apologizes, for it all, you see, i am your big sister, and with all the lashes i shielded you from, the verbal abuse, coveted you the most,

i'm loving you alway's deborah
