| Goodbye Goodbye my friend, My lover and mate. Goodbye to a dear one I've grown to hate. Goodbye to the memories; The good and bad. Goodbye to the times You've made me sad. Goodbye to my troubles, My worries and fears. Goodbye to my heartaches, My sadness and tears. Goodbye to the black~outs; There were a few. And "Hello" to a life I'm starting a new. Marianne ~Tazslady~ For My Friend I hope you know what it means to me To have a friend like you. Someone I can joke with And tease a little too! Someone that will listen To all my hopes and fears; Someone who will understand And lend me both their ears. Someone I can talk with And tell my troubles to. Someone who will not condemn me For what I say or do. I'm glad to have you as my friend. I don't know what I'd do If I did not have you as my friend. I'm glad that someone's you!

| | My Reflection My life was empty And full of pain, And tears would flow From my eyes like rain. A constant stream Runnning down my face. I saw no love, No mercy or grace. I could not stand In front of a mirror, And see my reflection Standing there. All I saw was Fear and shame, And the tears flow From my eyes like rain. Until one day I had found my Lord, Weilding his powerful And almighty sword, He lifted me From my drowning sorrow And gave me a reason To live for tomorrow. Now I can stand If front of a mirror, And see my reflection Standing there, But also staring Back at me, Is the reflection Of the one Who set me free. Written by: Marianne ~TazsLady~ 4/4/01
~Hugz~ | | Pit of Despair I used to think of my life As painful and unfair. Hanging from a real thin thread Above a pit of despair. A pit that was filled with anger and shame. A cauldron of fear and hate. Bubbling and boiling to the rim; I believed this to be my fate. Until the day I bent my knees, And prayed to God above; I asked Him for His Care and Wisdom, Forgiveness, help and Love. It was then that He lifted me And helped me to regain The confidence that I had once lost, And my sobriety. Marianne ~TazsLady~ 4/12/01
