I once saw a light
The depths were great
It was enough power to change any
Man's fate
The longer I stared
The dimmer it grew
It solidfied in me
That old things are new
There was a man with two path
The decision was hard
Does he move from the past
Or hold on to scars
Heaven was near
Hell was closer
The decision was clear
He lived all over
A man and his bird always
Did sing
The world with them together never
Meant a thing
The man left his house
The bird started chirping
Together again
Their worlds started working
The song they sang
was greater than last
No longer apart
Nor torn with the past
The chirp was a whistle
The house was a home
Together again
The world and their own

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.
