every waking moment
I am haunted by the memories
caused by my surroundings.
at night i dream of things
never to be spoken about
in the daylight.
no focusing on anything but
the bad things is a daily thing,
unable to get a reasonable reality check.
neglect had run rampant for
way too long, with no help,
no support, no trust.
now, it is time to change
the things that are wrong so
i can become a better person.
a better future is the only way
to beat the past that has
haunted me all my life.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
