Reflections

My face is getting lines My body wearing thin<o:p></o:p> The outside is my armor<o:p></o:p> To protect all that is within.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Sometimes I am laughing<o:p></o:p> While inside I am dieing<o:p></o:p> Outside there’s a smile<o:p></o:p> Covering the inside crying.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> My soul reaches out<o:p></o:p> For the girl buried deep inside<o:p></o:p> Robbed of her innocence<o:p></o:p> The pain made her hide.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> My heart cries loudly<o:p></o:p> For the sons that are gone<o:p></o:p> There is a lot of pain<o:p></o:p> Even after this long<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> When I die, I hope they say<o:p></o:p> This life I survived it all<o:p></o:p> Even when I was run down<o:p></o:p> I refused to let myself fall.<o:p></o:p>   ©1999 by Elizabeth La Monda  (Another one by Liz - 4/14/03 8:04pm)

If You Knew Me

If you knew me Would you walk down the country lane Would you share your dreams At night whisper my name? If you knew me Would you hold me at night Talk for hours But never fight? If you knew me Would life still be fun Would you give me your heart And never run? If you knew me Would you be proud Would my words be heard with feeling And your laughter be loud? If you knew me Would I also know you  Posted by "Liz" 4/14/2003 8:02pm =================================================================== 4/15/2003 12:24am WICKEDJESTER22....THAT WAS PRETTY GOOD TO READ
