17/M/TX?
We can meet behind the Wal-mart, I'll be in my parent's windowless van!
Some of my lovely mother's poetry and lyrics...
She's a giant inspiration to me in almost every way, and I'd like to share some of her stuff with my friends.

No worries, she doesn't mind.

Seemingly innocent child of four
Stricken with fever - close to death's door
Body raging hot - higher than it should
Young soul drifted - as anybody's would
Spirits are well aware. . .no one knew of this one's name
And the she-soul spiraled downward - into darker depths it came
She-soul encountered others; ones which smelled the life still fresh
Envious, greedy eyes did the she-soul unknowingly fetch
Quickly they surrounded, chanting promises never meant
Singing, "We will always be near you...feel our power little pet!
Follow us back up to the livelihood places you know.
We will come visit you..in your body, mind and soul.
Let us see through your eyes, your senses, and all you desire
We will help you attain....just follow us through the crimson fire.
You see..it cannot hurt you dear....your life force scorches blue
Hotter than any other firelights...red, yellow... orange..now..SHOOOO!"

The she-soul braved the crimson flame and came out the other side
Opened eyes... a new disguise...fever's sweat on cooling skin
Trembling hands from where she'd been
Ceiling shadows playing tricks...but she surely saw
The tail end of a dark one as it slipped out down the hall
Now steps approached and soon her mother stood near
She smiled, stroked her daughter's head and said,
"There now.. you see...I'm right here...little pet."

One in a Storm (written 1994)

Your bodys still, but (ch)your thoughts are reelin'
People's lies gotcha constantly thinkin'
Not sure what will come down next..well

Tough road that (ch) your travelin' on
Can see you're tired and your heart is torn
While all around you rages a storm
and you wonder when you'll see it clear

--------------------------------------

Told you tonight I would leave at twelve
didn't want to say good-bye
(I) asked you without words to tell me somethin'
with your eyes
Then you opened up the gate for me
to see my way home
(I) smiled knowing it would never be
but still I know
That its a

Tough road that you're travelin' on
can see you're tired and your heart is torn
while all around you rages a storm
and you wonder when you'll see it clear

Well I'll be here when you see it thru..cuz I believe in you

Yeah you can bet that I'll still be around

Yes I really do

I really believe in you

She wants me to make a song out of the second one.

It could happen.
