Time counts and keeps countin',
and we knows now finding
the trick of what's been
and lost ain't no easy ride.
But that's our trek, we
gotta' travel it. And there
ain't nobody knows where it's
gonna' lead.

! I N F A T U A T I O N S !

CRUSH i keep silent and hold you in my heart why does it ache so?
FRIENDS point to the top of the mountain when i've lost my way
AFFECTION to be near you takes my breath away
ENCHANTMENT across the room i see you and i can't turn away
FONDNESS to be near you is more than enough
WEAKNESS you are my weakness
INVOLVEMENT when you are ready
ADMIRE your beauty holds me captive
CAPTIVATED i close my eyes when i think of you

! A C C O M P L I S H I M E N T S !

REALIZATION the day i woke up an thought maybe somehow i could help
ACHIEVEMENT staying in school and not getting distracted
SUCCESS first person in my family to go to college
TRIUMPH finishing two years of schooling
VICTORY maintaining a 3.0 grade point average
FULFILLMENT i'll let you know when i graduate

! A D V E R S I T I E S !

ANGUISH when i saw your disappointment i thought i would die
TRIBULATION when you look at me and see someone unworthy
DISTRESS wondering when i will get my chance at success
WOE being alone is the saddest thing in the world
HURT name calling cuts to the bone harsh words wound to the soul
CONTEMPT disgust and anger combined because of your harsh words

! J O Y * C O M E S * I N * T H E * M O R N I N G !

THE PRESENT survive any way you can we must live
THE FUTURE it's up to us what we will become
THE HOPE that we will learn from our mistakes
THE CHANGE to rebuild again and make it better
THE REASON for the sake of our children & our children's children
