Array ( [sid] => 61952 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Because of you [time] => 2004-08-30 18:41:04 [hometext] => This would be a poem I wrote for my transexual friend, although his life is hard he never gives up and always has a smile on his face and the time to make others smile aswell:D [bodytext] => You somehow gave me courage, Im brave enough to see,
That I can make it the way I am, just by simply being me,
You've shown me how strong you are even when things get tough,
And even though your one of my best friends, it just doesn't seem enough,
I wish that you were here with me, a reminder to go after what I want in life,
To ignore the people who mock and just dont understand the strife,
If everybody learned how to be as strong as you are inside,
People would be better off and not worry or have to hide,
The world would be a better place if they smiled as much as you,
If they laughed away their troubles, there's nothing love couldn't undo,
You always find a way to cheer me up when im feeling down,
Sometimes if I didn't have a friend like you, im sure that I would drown,
I love everything you are, I hope you never go away,
Here on my computer screen, in my heart you'll stay,
So never change for anyone, no matter what they try to do,
Because the person that I love so much, isnt them, it's you.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
