YOUR FRIEND

When you're feeling cold and lonely
Come to me
Your one and only friend
Time slowly rushes by
If you hear your name carried by the wind
Come to me -- knock at my door
I'll always take you in

The world can expand into nothingness
You're never alone
'Cause where ever I am
Under my roof -- you'll always have a home

No expectations -- no strings -- no big deal things
Come and go as you please -- put your mind at ease
Rest until you're strong again
Love forever
Your friend

NOTE: This is a love poem -- but not to an ex-lover. This was for a cousin who was on drugs. When I heard about it -- I couldn't believe it. I always thought she was too smart and cool for that. I wrote her a letter and said I wanted to see her. And that if I had to sit on her until she got straighten out - I would. She came to see me, we talked, she denied how bad she was. But when she decided to get help she asked me to go with her to the first meeting. --Salty

NOTICE BOARD

Hi SPT readers. I haven't posted anything new in several months. I don't want to post about political issues so until I'm inspired with something new or finish a story ....

Feel free to post comments about something you have read at SPT because I do like hearing from my readers even if it is just a hello. I don't put up my email address because I already get mail from people trying to sell me Viagra which goes straight to the Junk box. :) I do receive notification when someone has made a comment at SPT and I will respond as soon as I can. Thank you for visiting. -S

The Agenda-Civil Rights

Support for the LGBT Community: While we have come a long way since the Stonewall riots in 1969, we still have a lot of work to do. Too often, the issue of LGBT rights is exploited by those seeking to divide us. But at its core, this issue is about who we are as Americans. It's about whether this nation is going to live up to its founding promise of equality by treating all its citizens with dignity and respect. Federal law should not discriminate in any way against gay and lesbian couples. ... young & old, rich & poor, democrat & republican, black white hispanic asian native american gay straight disable and not disable ... we are and always will be the United States of America. --Barack Obama, (More)
