Raging Storm's Stuff

Minutes Like hours (i didn't write this)

You walk into the store
and stride down the isle.
You pick me up and
try to look casual while
you carry me down
to the checkout line.
Pull out your wallet,
you soon will be mine.
Your friends are observing
every move that you make.
The clerk asks for ID-
you show him a fake.
You quickly walk down
to the front of the store.
Your friends are waiting for you
as you step out the door.
You hop it the car
and drive away from the shop.
Then you shut off the ignition,
and pop off my top.
you take a few drinks
and pass me around.
That's when you decide
to take a drive around town.
You turn on your car
and put your foot on the clutch.
I'm sober you think,
I didn't have very much.
You pull onto the road
with me by your side,
taking occasional sips
as you enjoy the ride.
Then the brakes on the car
in front of you squeal.
You try hard to stop,
but lose control of the wheel.
You skid off the road,
and you know you have crashed.
The dashboard is shattered,
the windshield is smashed.
Minutes like hours,
you're in tremendous pain,
that washes your senses,
envelops your brain.
The screams all around you
are faint in your ears,
as life flashes before you,
your hopes and your fears.
Minutes like hours,
you plead and you pray,
I'll never touch it again,
just let me live one more day.
Your mind starts to go dark,
it falls apart piece by piece.
And you slip into blackness,
the pain has finally ceased.
Before you entered that store,
you should have thought twice,
for I am the substance
that cost you your life.

it's long but worth it





[Near the door he paused to stand as he took his class ring off her hand.
All who were watching did not speak as a silent tear ran down his cheek.
And through his mind memories ran of the moments they walked hand and hand.
But now her eyes were so terribly cold for he would no longer have her to hold.
They watched in silence as he bent near and whispered the words "I Love You" in her ear.
He touched her face and started to cry as he put on his ring and wanted to die.
And just then the wind begin to blow as they lowered her casket into the snow....]



["If there are any idiots in the room, will they please stand
up?" said the sarcastic teacher. After a long silence, one
freshman rose to his feet.
"Now then mister, why do you consider yourself an idiot?"
enquired the teacher with a sneer.
"Well, actually I don't," said the student, "but I hate to see
you standing up there all by yourself."]

"Killing because someone else was killed...killing because he killed...will peace really come from that in the end?"
