COLLIDING

Love is hate,
Day is night,
Hope is despair
Dark is bright.

That's how I felt,
Fears in the past,
The hours in my life,
It seems were vast.

I didn't know what to do
I didn't know what to say,
To turn that dark night,
Into a bright shiny day.

Then you showed up,
Tall and strong,
The darkness lifted,
And my heart filled with song.

You gave me hope,
And made me believe,
You made the day bright,
And the darkness leave.

I'll thank you forever,
And love you longer,
As days go by,
My love will grow stronger.

What Will I Get From Being a Peer Helper?

Well, that's up to you. If you put no effort into it you will receive nothing, but if you do get into the spirit then you will receive a lot of attention and you will walk out of the class feeling that you have accomplished something. You will have the satisfaction of knowing that you have helped someone, or you could have made a new friend, Meeting new people is great, too.

HOW DO I GET HOME

How do I get home
Back to where I live?
Never knowing how I'm getting
To where I'm going.
Life is a roller coaster ride
Going up slowly and coming down so fast.
Never any happy moments,
Always feeling so low.
Feeling the look of disappointment
Not knowing what it feels like to be loved.
Lying down in bed with all my thoughts
Wondering how I'm getting back home.

FAITH

I will be by your side
No matter what the cost.
I will help you save your pride,
find anything you've lost.
I will help you keep the tide
Upon the sands of the beach.
I will go with you to far away places,
As far as we can reach.
I will stay with you through all your faces,
I will help you touch the sky.
And, in all of our adventures,
If ever you ask "Why?"
I will most certainly reply,
"All my faith is in you."

FAITH

The love bird makes his way south
He needs no map to find his date,
And when he does, it will be worth the wait,
For every snow white dove has their soul mate.

A nice theory for such a beautiful bird:
I wouldn't believe it possible,
Except that in my life,
Soul mates, like us,
Experienced it, word for word.
