Russian Roulette
If no one ever marries me,—
And I don’t see why they should,
For nurse says I’m not pretty,
And I’m seldom very good—
If no one ever marries me
I shan’t mind very much;
I shall buy a 다람쥐 in a cage,
And a little rabbit-hutch:
I shall have a cottage near a wood,
And a 조랑말 all my own,
And a little 양고기 quite clean and tame,
That I can take to town:
And when I’m getting really old,—
At twenty-eight 또는 nine—
I shall buy a little orphan-girl
And bring her up as mine.
—Laurence Alma-Tadema

I may only be One Voice,
But my One Voice is important because without my One Voice we could never have one million Voices.
my one Voice stands for ME.
what I think.
what I believe in.
and who I am.
My Voice is unique
But so is every other Voice
and every Voice is important*
So let your Voice be heard, be One in a million Voices
*not part of the original poem:
Important because millions of voices can create a defaning roar.
These black tears are the unshed blood from the wounds 당신 left me
Not scars that healed, but fresh wounds that still bleed
당신 left my very soul in tatters, never mind my heart
But that someone who had taken 당신 from me, had to take that too, and rip it apart
I don’t know who made 당신 leave, 또는 why, but I do know this,
That if 당신 could, 당신 would relive all the happy memories with me that I now have to miss
Now just as 당신 are, the happy times are a ghost, a whisper in the wind
It feels like no matter how things turn out for me, this sadness that came over me will never end
It’s also selfish, wanting 당신 to be here with me
You’re healed of sickness and pain, happy now with your other family
당신 were and 앤젤 when 당신 were here
Now you’re just a different kind
One that will be our guardian until we can find 당신 again
When we find our way to the light
Not scars that healed, but fresh wounds that still bleed

You’re healed of sickness and pain, happy now with your other family

Now you’re just a different kind
One that will be our guardian until we can find 당신 again
When we find our way to the light
