More than Friends

Wondering where you have been all my life?
You're not Mr. Right but you're as close
as I think I'll get to meeting him.
I have met a lot of guys but I
always come back to you. I don't know
why I feel the way I do but I
think we are more than friends.
It's hard to explain to you
how I feel because I only
seem like a friend to you; but
you are more than a friend to me.
Only a friend to you but you're more than that
to me. I can't seem to show you what
I mean because I'm not given the chance.
But you care for me and I'm so
grateful for that. Even when I didn't know it you
had me in mind. And now you are still more than
a friend to me even though you destroyed
a piece of my heart. I'm still sitting here waiting
because I'm a stubborn German girl.

Here's to the one's who never come home

With eyes filled with tears, the soldier
left his loved ones, not knowing if he will
see them again. As many soldiers prepare for
what lies ahead all have one goal in their
mind and that is to
defend their pride and country.
Every solder has a story but many are unknown.
There are many unsung heroes.
So here is to all the soldiers who have left
their home to fight for their country
and never return home.
Every war has unsung heroes but there is one
day set aside to honor all soldiers past and present.
May Twenty-Six is when American remembers
all soldiers from before World War I to
the War on Terror.

Moving on

Life goes on. I'll live through it all.
Nothing is holding me back except you.
My hold up is your love. You turned the wrong
way and left me here.

Every girl wants their chance. I just thought;
this was mine. I didn't understand.
I don't know if I'll ever understand.
How could you go that way. All
I asked for was my chance. It might
of been my only shot.

I'm the one who realized you can't be
with one person unless you really like
her. I'll live through this, that's what
I keep telling myself. That's what keeps
me moving. i feel barely alive inside.

This was suppose to be my shot.
My chance. You have no clue what you
did to me. I don't want to cry over you
but I have and I can't believe I am.

Untitled.... any suggestions???

I can feel a sensation going
through my veins reaching
my ears whispering your name
feeling my heart beat
my body heat
rises with your little surprises.

The roads are wrapped around your waist
they lead me place to place.
I take trips from hip to hip in fact
I've made a career out of it.
I've always thought the left was
your strongest side but when it
comes to you now I can't decide
it's only a matter of time.

The Year I was clean

The Year I was Clean
By:EJG
It wasn’t easy I could tell. The price you paid
I can’t imagine. You were a hurting man ready
to make a change. Life threw you down the steps
but they gave you a hand. They offered
the help and you took it one step at a time. Now
you have become clean; stayed that
way for a year now. Never go off the
path for you know what will happen.
Don’t look back because everything and
everyone that matters is right beside
you. You got a second chance at life.
Yeah, you lost some precious time but
you got your whole life ahead of you.
So go and make the best of it. Don’t
turn back because then you could fall

and go right back to step one.
