DON'T CRY FOR ME
how many of you
can truely say
you're not afraid of death
in any way?

i have met such a person
who to my horror said
"don't cry for me
i'll soon be dead"

"i have time to tell my dearest
how i love them so,
an opportunity most people,
don't get before they go".

"it's not a happy ending
it's not a sad one too
it's the end of my beginning
it's what i have to do"

with a smile on her face
and with passion she said
"don't cry for me,
i'm already dead".

I listened to her words
and didn't cry a tear
for what she said was wisdom
wise beyond her year

with no fear in her voice
no tear in her eye
she carried on speaking,
pausing to sigh

"of course i'd love to be here
of course i want to stay
to watch you open presents
on every special day".

"but i can't live any longer
i have to end the pain
death is the only thought
that helps to keep me sane".

"my fate was chosen long ago
by forces big and strong
I ask you not to cry for me
for i know it wont be long".

with that my new friend finished
and said she had to go
but i did not shed a tear
although she'd never know

I took it all on board
everything she'd said
and I prayed to my lord
for i knew she'd soon be dead

I asked him to take care of her
I told him she was kind
he told me he'd look after her
which gave me peace of mind

so when this day arrives
i will not shed a tear
for i know she will be happy
and treated very dear.

Can you tell me..
Why I'm ill??

Theres no cure
No magic pill

To heal my pain

Is it God playing a game?
Well its not fun!

Afterall I'm only young.

Raul's amazing art work!!

Ok, this is my friest try at some poetry ... so its not great!
 
I'v forgotten how is feels,
to be free from pain,
to have a little energy,
to live my life again.
 
I'm sure it should be diffrent,
I keep wishing it away,
I'v lost all my emotions
and the pain is here to stay.
 
I know I am a fighter,
and no I wont give up,
but im getting rather tiered,
of living with this thing.
 
To doctors im a fake,
to friends im in the way,
my family think im lazy,
yet I struggle every day.
 
One day I will be normal,
all the symptoms will be gone,
I can work and play and party,
my life really WILL go on.

Its up to you
just what you do

If you can't talk
try and walk

Just cry alone
Or on the phone

Others are here
We know your fear

Come for a beer
We'll bring you cheer!

But its up to you
Just what you do

The offers there
Because we care!!!!

SO WHAT IF I CAN'T...
i can't run the fastest
i can't swim the sea
i can't type the quickest
but i love being me

i can't kick a ball
or even climb a tree
i can't roll in the grass
but i still love being me

you see this is my life
as others would see
they don't know what it's like
to really be me

so next time i'm about
rolling down the street
don't think of me disabled
but someone cool to meet

i have lots i can teach you
i have loads i can share
you will never gain my wisdom
if you just point and stare

so maybe i can't run the fastest
maybe i can't kick a ball
but i wouldn't change being me
not for you, not at all
