ENTREATY
Lately I've been
Thinking -- thinking
About
Slipping this skin
If I come knocking
Father will you take me in?
I've been well -- you know
Looking forward to
Better days
But I can't see thru the haze
Even with the sun shining
Still I hope for a silver-lining
Haven't given in
Haven't given up
I miss drinking from the sacred cup
But I don't belong in that place
I can't look anyone in the eye
I can barely show my face
This entity is unholy
A disgrace
If you're still listening
Give me a sign
Whisper in my ear
Strengthen my spine
This is the last time.

NOTE: There are times when we can feel more alone in a crowded room than when we are actually alone. Sometimes we are too much in our own heads that never seem to shut down. So this is to SPT Readers who have felt isolated/alone and have thought about stepping over the line. Please hold on. Tomorrow is another day. Give yourself time to get stronger. This is your world. The space you occupy is yours. Each breath you take is yours. Keep looking for that silver-lining. Someone who was a cutter, told me recently that if it wasn't for me, she wouldn't be here. Sometimes people need someone to talk to -- someone who will not pass judgement but listen.
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. --
