Love me, don't ignore me
Make me laugh, don't make me cry
Treat me like your equal, not your child
Talk to me, don't shut me out
Hold me, don't turn your back on me
Be good to me, don't be cruel
Be honest with me, don't lie to me
Dry my tears, don't just watch them fall
Cherish my heart, don't break it
Appreciate me, don't take me for granted
Comfort me, don't hurt me more
Respect me, don't ridicule me
Be a man, don't be a child
Be silly with me at times, other times be serious
Laugh with me, don't laugh at me
Be patient with me, don't give up on me
Caress me, don't crush me
Lift me up, don't bring me down
Bring me joy, don't cause me pain
Treat me right, don't treat me wrong
All I want is to be loved, not hated
It is what I need, it is what I deserve
Do your best to do all of this and I will be yours forever
Do the opposite and watch me walk away forever
Is that too much to ask??
I don't think so, you shouldn't either

As many of you know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. But as so few of you know, I tragically lost my own mother to the disease in February of this year. I would like to help raise awareness not just for women but for MEN too.
See, every 3 minutes, a WOMAN is diagnosed with this horrible disease, and every 13 minutes a woman DIES because of it. But what you DON'T know, is that an expected 1,500 MEN will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year and sadly, 400 will DIE from this horrible disease.
We need to FIGHT BACK!!!!
So please, if you care enough to support this cause with me, join the fight by turning your profile picture PINK or just put a PINK ribbon up on it, to show all that you DO in fact care and want to support the cause.
You will never know just how much this means to myself and oh so many others faced with this battle. Please show us that we are NOT alone??
To those of you who already have shown your support, a big HUG and an even bigger THANK YOU!! Please keep it up, for there can NEVER be TOO MUCH SUPPORT!!!!!!
I pledge to wear something pink every day in October to show my support, plus I have just recently purchased a couple of rings to wear throughout the years to come to show my never ending support.
I love you Momma, and I ALWAYS will!!!! I miss you SOOOO much!!!!
I too, will link anyones blog about Breast Cancer Awareness to my own, just let me know.
Sincerely Your Partner In The Fight Against Breast Cancer,

It's Time To Let Go
This will hurt, I know, but it's time to let go
You no longer consume my every thought
You no longer have control
I love you, but it's time to let go
I must let go of the pain, the empty promise
that was you
You don't rule me anymore, it's time to let go
I no longer need you to breathe and slowly,
I will no longer bleed
It's time to let go
I will burn for you no more, you were never there
I know now what you have done to me
I know now who I am and who I must be
It's time to let go
I am truly sorry we could never be
I thank you for all you have shown me
and it's time to be free
I am so sorry but,
It's time to let go of you and me....

I Blame You
As the pieces of me fall to the floor and shatter
into even smaller shards of who I used to be
I blame you
As you hold my still bleeding heart
in the palm of your hand
I blame you
It is breaking, the pieces shattering
without a sound around me
I blame you
The sound of my cries,
deafening in the night
I blame you
I blame you for saving me
I blame you for slowly breaking me again
I'm cold and alone, the rain
pouring down on me
I blame you
I am falling apart, dying inside
when I need you most
I blame you
I blame you for making me whole again,
just to tear me apart, watching me bleed
I blame you for this insatiable need
No one hears my screams or feels my pain
I blame you
I am yet again in Hell
I blame you
All those feelings I have never felt before
I blame you
No one will ever get close, I can't let them in
I blame you
I have become dark and cold inside
I blame you
I will never know real love
and for that
I blame you....

I cry out, my screams of agony piercing the still of the night
They echo in my head, memories now nightmares as I lay scared
and alone in a sea of despair
Fear grips my soul making my blood run cold
I mourn the loss of a love I'll always remember
I bleed knowing I'll never rise above the ashes this time
as I reluctantly take my place among the dying embers
A horrifying place so familiar, so dark and cold
A place even a demon would never call home
I crawl into myself so broken and alone
Frightened and shivering, I slowly make my way,
stumbling, to the place I've always called home
Wishing I could somehow stop the pain, I lay here
and welcome the darkness as it once again embraces
me like a long lost friend
Once again I am shattered, so jagged and raw
Screaming for you, begging you to hear my
lonesome call....
