Questions

They call us to arms,
We sit and we wait.
We wait for the chance,
To live up to out fate.

We see on the news,
All the death and destruction.
This is a new kind of war,
Is our only instuction.

Our lines are forced forward,
We've conquered them all.
But they fight us back,
And the wounded they fall.

I sit back and think,
Is this what will come?
Why does everything happen,
At the point of a gun?

They couldn't grow up,
Sit and talk these things out?
What has our world come to?
Is this our only way out?

I Want To Be Me.

Many people look at me,
But not to many see.
The person that I seem to be,
Isn't really me.

I go along with what they say,
I pretend to understand.
No one seems to see me,
I'm like a grain of sand.

I dress like them, I act like them.
I want to make them see,
The person that I want to be,
Is no one else but me.

When Your Eyes Are Shut

In the dark you hear things,
That your eyes no longer see.
You sit in darkness listening,
To what life outside could be.

The darkness let the other senses,
Make up for what was lost.
The smell of fragrant woman’s perfume,
Or the touch of velvet cloth.

When you eyes are closed you start to think,
About the meaning of your life.
Of all the happy times you’ve shared,
Of all the pain and strife.

Or maybe when your eyes are closed,
You think of nothing at all.
Just get lost in your headspace,
Or maybe you start to fall.

You fall into this spiral,
Of thinking way too much.
When you should awaken you are back,
From the world that you lost touch.

Grow

Looking from atop the ridge,
The vally down below.
The ships sailing across the bay,
In the sunsets glow.

The view from here is breathtaking,
I wish that I could stay here.
Right here in this moment,
For just another day.

I know that this could never be,
Because now I have to go.
To go and chase my dreams,
To live and learn and grow.

Untitled.

Surrounded by faces,
Yet I feel so alone.
Everybody stares at me,
Like I sit upon a throne.

I know they see me force a smile,
But I don't really care.
I carry around a pain,
That I can hardly bare.

Will I ever find a friend,
Who will let my tears run free?
Who doesn't want anything in return,
Who will just help me be me?

Free from all the sadness,
The fear I hold inside.
Things I could let go of,
If Imjust sat down and cried.

Jennifer Scott
Waiting

Sitting in my room at night,
Waiting by the phone,
Hoping you will call for me,
But your not even home.

You said you’d never cheat on me,
What else is knew you lied,
I can’t think of what you do,
When you’re by her side.

You only know what you have,
Once it walks out the door,
You’ll now realize what you had,
Because I’m not there anymore

A Poem for a Loving Mother

You may be gone,
But your memory stays.
Where we once sat talking,
Chipmunks now play.

Although if I call,
You won't be there.
If I ever need you,
It’s as easy as prayer.

You graced us with a presence,
That never did fail.
To you no one was ever to dark or to pale.  
You made friends with many,

To family you made clear.
You had things to do,
But couldn't do them here.
How we deal with the loss,

No one quite knows.
But if you were to look at us now,
The sadness it shows.
But now we have to move on no matter how hard it seems,

Because you were the light,
That guided us,
Through the night,

Now we move on,
How I’m not sure,
But we can go on with the knowledge
That your soul is pure.

Jennifer Scott
Wow…. There are so many things I want to share with every single one of you, special memories from a broken heart.

I wake up every morning
From another sleepless night
I slowly come to realize
That something isn’t right.

The Christmas tree is decorated.
Your purse sits by the stairs
Your shoes are at the front door
But they haven’t moved from there

You still had so much to do here
Why you left we’ll never know
You still had so many dreams for us
Places you wanted us to go.

You taught us to tie our shoes
The magic of winter when it snows.
And all the bad things that come from
Sticking fruit snacks up my nose.

You taught us love and kindness
To carry our heads up high
You taught us nothing was ever out of reach
If we kept reaching for the sky

You love is never ending
Like the mark left on our heart
Your were strong and independent
You never fell apart

And this is where I stopped because I came to realize that there was just to many wonderful things to list in a poem.
No matter who asked her about her family she always told them that she had five kids, her chickens as she called them, and she was always happiest when all of her chickens were in her nest.
I know she love Pat with all her heart. I don’t think that saw the two of them together would think otherwise. You were each other’s soul mate.
Jared, Jordan and Jasmine. You were her children just as much as Melanie and I are and she loved you with everything she had.
Melanie, her little monkey. She always said, “you guys wait and see, my baby has more potential then anyone I’ve ever seen, you just wait, she’s going to be something, something great”. You are her baby; her reason for doing what she did everyday. She had a special love for you, one she had for no one else. She loves you still.

She was and is known by so many different names. Bernice, wife, daughter, sister, mother, friend, mentor and inspiration. Loving caring beautiful, sweet and resilient. These are just a few of the wonderful thing my mom was and stood for.
Mom go with god, I love you, you are a part of me that I will never lose...I love you
My mom was always worried about leaving nothing for her family when she passed. Don’t worry mom...you left more then you’ll ever know. For we are your legacy. We are the ties that keep you here with us each and everyday. With every dream we fulfill and with every choice we make, we honor you, your integrity, your love, your life.
