I believe in...
I believe in the creation of the Earth in six days
the making of man
the rib that created Eve
the day of rest
the eating of forbidden fruit
hiding, shame, pain
But the reasoning behind evolution
I believe in the meaning behind your first kiss
I believe in the fact that life can pass you by
I believe in my heart that I am loved more than the sun, and stars
I believe in the sacrafice
suffering, love, mercy
And I believe in the one the only, the first and last, my father forever.
Someday...
Someday I will be known
someday I will be heard
someday I will be loved
someday things will change
someday I will meet my brother
someday I will say I'm sorry
someday I will forgive
someday my heart will heal
someeday may be soon
One window
One window is all I need
to escape the world behind me
to compleltley forget my past
to love another agin
to walk in the moons light
to watch the stars forever burn bright
to hope once again
to make a difference in this world
to provide remeberance in a world forgotten in hate
Just because...
Just because I'm sixteen don't treat me like a chil
don't tell me I wont understand
dont act like I can't handle it
Just because I'm sixteen
It doesn't mean that I'm unable
It doesn't mean I wont succeed
It doesn't mean you can look down on me
Just because I'm sixteen
still treat me with repect
I'm not your average teenager, not quite like the rest
Just because I'm sixteen - try understanding me
I don't understand
I don't understand why people are labeled
why name brand clothing is important
why difference is frowned upon
I don't understand
But most of all
why hatred is so loved
why love is so forgotten
why people search for the meaning of life
what I understand most is
why we have friends
why the stars burn
why every moment is special
She
She smiles, she laughs
but inside
She cries, she bleeds
She begs for someone to hear her silent screams
See past the smile
See past the laughter
and on the inside
See the pain, see the wounds
She begs for someone to hear her silent screams
She sings, she plays
but inside
She weeps, she is alone
She begs for someone to hear her silent screams
Listen beyond the beauty of her voice
See beyond her childish innocence
Hear the sadness in her songs
See the lonliness in her eyes
She begs for someone to hear her silent screams

I am the Child and the Rain
I am the child and the rain
I wonder how lost I can be before I am found
I hear the voice of the star trapped in darkness
I see the wind play childish games around me
I want to stand out in the rain and embrace it's touch
I am the child and the rain
I pretend I am off to a world of new
I feel the warm breath of a faery on my neck
I touch the red velvet rose petal fallen on the ground
I worry I will never feel love
I cry outloud the tears that the silent child does not
I am the child and the rain
I understand the silence of a tortured child
I say I am not alone
I dream the rain will never cease to fall upon my face
I try to be the light admidst the the dark
I hope the silence will break and the once silent voices will be heard
I am the child and the rain

"The Journey"
Hollow inside
I hear my heart beat,
Pumping with a strong force,
that is new to me
Sending blood through every vein and every artery
Sending life swimming through my every being;
my body
Continuing it's journey
back to my heart again
Where my life anxiously waits
to be pumped and circulated
again
- Jess
"Jessi"
Jessi
It means Courage, Compassion, Survivor
It is the number 94
It is like the ocean waters on a clear day
It is watching the stars fade waiting for the sunrise
It is the memory of My Father
Who taught me Trust and Integrity
When he promised he would always be there holding my hand along the way
My name is Jessi
It means Child of God
