Tiss

by Kelly Sartin

Tisses, Tisses, everywhere you see.
Here's a tiss for you & a tiss from me.
Tisses are here,
Tisses are there,
Tisses are everywhere.

A tiss can be a kiss.
A tiss can be love.
But you ask "What is a tiss?"
And I answer "A tiss is a kiss,
But shows more love."

How you ask "What type of love?"
I answer with a soft voice
"A tiss is more love than love
Can be defined."

You pull me close to you
And kiss me softly on the lips.
You tell me that you love me
More than anything.

But all I can do is blush and say "Tisses."

sharp edges pierce my soul

cotton fills my mind

i reach out

try to hold on

my grasp loosens

i slip

slowly

into the eternal darkness. . .


Life

You want my opinion on life?
Live it how it is, don't try and change it.
And don't complain about it.
It is obviously like this for some reason.
You may not understand it or like it, but hey what can you do about it?
Too many people go through life complaining and wishing it was different, but if it
was different would you really like it?
You'll never know, now will you?

Too few people live life to enjoy it, rather dwelling on how
they wish to
change things.
Many people would be so much happier if they let the past go
and concentrate on living life to the fullest everyday!
If you don't have the best day try as hard as you can to make tomorrow the best day you can live.
You decide how your day is going to be. . . not I or the person next to you.
Remember, that what you do and how you act will determine the type of day you have.
If you have a terrible day don't dwell on it, cry about it, or blame others for it.
Just think of how you can make things better for the next day
and you will succeed and live a truly happy and successful
life.

There are a couple things every person should know, and needs to keep with them in mind at all times to live life to the fullest every day:

1) You're your own person - Don't let anyone ever tell you
differently or take
advantage of you or discourage you for being who you are.
We're all
different and how we do or see things is O.K. and shouldn't be
discouraged by
others.

2) Always be there for your friends or people know you. They
may not
always be there for you, but they depend on you and need you.
They appreciate
you more then you know just by listening to their problems and
giving them
encouragement and advice on different situations, no matter
how difficult the
situation is or the people involved.

3) Pick and choose your friends very carefully. There are
very few people who
you can truly trust and honestly call your friends.

4) Every friendship depends on three things. Honesty,
Respect, Loyalty.

5) Give as much as you can to others when needed, whether you
like it or not.
They truly appreciate it no matter what they may or may not
say.

You live life only once so while you are here make the best of
it.
It's those who live through the rough stuff that succeed to
the best stuff.
Life is too short to look at all the details that are way too
confusing.
Put up with the cards that are dealt, and see what you can do
to win the "game" of life.

Keep this in mind as you live your life day by day and you
will truly live a
spectacular life.
