Last Word
I strolled by your house today,to catch a glimpse of you
I planned it out ahead of time,but that whole deal fell through
They picked me up and hauled me in,now here I am in jail
I tried to tell them it was all a mistake,but to no avail
What goes around,comes around,I guess that saying is true
That protection order,that you bought,sure seems to work for you
Just one more thing,before I go,that I need to say
I didn't really want to see you,at all anyway

Poetry: A day in my life
by Lilly Mantra
Take a walk in my shoes.
Experience one day in my life.
See the anguish, the exhaustion,
The terror, the strife.
I wake up in
The Duty of a Soldier's Wife
I salute our flag
With my oven Mit
Changing diapers to the sound
Of freedom's wit
Serving my country
Proud
by Ariel Eton
Here inside this body
Lives a ME that no one knows
A ME that's hard to understand
A ME I haven't chose
To be bitter and misgiving
Is
The world on my shoulders, a smile on my face
The girl in the mirror is hard to embrace
I'm a mother of three, yet I tend
by Erin G
A day in my life
A sky of often-grey
A never-lifting cloud
An endless fall of rain
A bout of shining sun
Playing peek-a-boo
Between
