So many tears shed in the dark of night,
hidden away in our private thoughts
only to be shelved with morning’s first light
because of no courage to speak of the pain
this part of our lives remain the same…

Mother’s and Fathers, Sisters and Brothers
gather for holidays they hope will heal
while gathered together sharing a meal
what they bring, back from the past,
perhaps they’ll be able to bed it, at last. Continue reading →

When wars and conflicts totally cease,
In our world, there shall be peace.
People must learn to get along,
Not blame others, for being wrong.

They fight for control, fight for land,
Some just need a helping hand.
We must rid ourselves of vanity,
And embrace peace, through humanity. Continue reading →

I get laughed at,
I get ignored,
I often feel trapped,
and keep my thoughts stored,
people can be cruel and very mean,
but no matter what,
I follow my dreams

life has waves,
I know that,
but i stand brave,
and take the crap,
I may feel exhausted and totally creamed,
but no matter what,
I follow my dreams Continue reading →

Have you ever felt like all hope is lost?
Being so desperate,
No matter the cost?
Then listen now,
To what I have to say,
It’ll give you hope,
And might change your life today.
Look back and remember,
All the good memories forever.
Think about the people you care,
And the happy moments that you’ve shared.
You have to stay strong,
And give life another chance,
Know that your needed,
It could be your only defense.
Always remember that,
When things go wrong,
It’s not the end of the world,
You have to stay strong.

That night I caught a falling star,
During summer so warm and clear.
I thought of how and where you were,
That night I caught a falling star.
To have you near me from afar
I closed my eyes and wished you here,
That night I caught a falling star
During summer so warm and clear.

What’s up with that humongous cover photo.
Feels like I just woke up from a nightmare.

You cannot buy your happiness,
‘Cause happiness is free.
Don’t you know, or can’t you guess,
It’s there for you and me.
And what you do with what you’ve got,
Can change the way you feel.
Just do your best and smile a lot,
You’ll keep an even keel.
‘Cause happiness is made for YOU,
Just take a bite and see
That happiness is what you do
With something that is free.

Poem title: Happiness
~by George Savige

The rain will stop,
the night will end,
the hurt will fade.
Hope is never so lost
that it can’t be found.

If you like to fight, please fight for the poor children

The suffering of Khmer Children,
is never the suffering of the
Cambodian Prime Minister…

First time meeting my new cousin.
She just arrived here, from Cambodia.
We never met before,
but feels like she’s going to be
my new best friend.
She’s already invited me
to sleep over. Thanks.
Too bad, we live in two
different states.
