Life Offers More Than One Chance, Cathy,

Love Doesn't Always Come When You Want It To. Sometimes It Just Happens, Despite Your Will.

You've Got To Learn Something From Every Defeat In Life Or Life Will Defeat You.

Unless I'm Reading An Assignment Or Doing A Paper Or Taking A Test, I'm Thinking About You.

There Was A War Going On In Our House. A Silent War That Sounded No Guns, And The Bodies That Fell Were Only Wishes That Died And The Bullets Were Only Words And The Blood That Spilled Was Always Called Pride.

And Somewhere In That Crimson-colored Never-never Land Where I Pirouetted Madly, In A Wild And Crazy Effort To Exhaust Myself Into Insensibility, I Saw That Man, Shadowy And Distant, Half-hidden Behind Towering White Columns That Rose Clear Up To A Purple Sky. In A Passionate Pas De Deux He Danced With Me, Forever Apart, No Matter How Hard I Sought To Draw Nearer And Leap Into His Arms, Where I Could Feel Them Protective About Me, Supporting Me ... And With Him I'd Find, At Last, A Safe Place To Live And Love.
