" The night has a thousand eyes, And the day but one; Yet the light of the bright world dies with the dying sun. The mind has a thousand eyes, And the heart but one; Yet the light of a whole life dies when love is done." Francis William Bourdillon

I'm different from my family.
I'm different for my age.
I'm different for my friends,
and i'm different for my race.
But you know what?
God cares.
I'm nothing alike of my church.
I don't fit in. I suffer from my mistakes; but i still sin.
But who cares? God cares.
I hurt, I cry, I plead.
I fall from sanity,and then i bleed.
I rage, I scream, I shout!
My breathing staggers until my lungs give out.
But you know why i'm still here?
Because God cares.
I'm not perfect. I don't always do what's right. I didn't grow up in a Christian home, and I will give up the fight.
I fell in love with someone I though I knew would always be there.
Someone I thought cared.
Lord what a fool was I.
God cares.
I will not cry.

The author's comments:
Sometimes God truly does put you through hell, just to see a frequent glimpse of heaven. But the Lord knows best, and is the only one who will ever always be there for you. I learned that from my childhood.

Favorite Quote:
&quot;Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind.&quot;
