From that one little night, Lives were changed. Decisions were made, And there was no going back. Thought people could be loyal, Held them at standards far too royal. Then the whole things started to foil. Got into a position you’d never be. Thought, “No way can’t happen to me!” But you couldn’t have been more wrong, This isn’t a movie or song. Things aren’t so simple. So now you’re stuck with what you have. Your situation is real bad, But it could be worse. What made you make the decisions you did? -Conner, San Francisco Please contact Lisa Lavaysse if you

Fifth, roast your homework and roll outside to your after school program And combine and sprinkle some patience at the after school program. – Joshua

Writing is a gift. It is our voice when we just can’t talk about it. The mode of self-expression will always allow us the time to expose our pains, our hurts and the chance to really look at them. Searching in our hearts is what The Beat Within is allowing us all to do. – Terry Lytle’s, Volume 19.41/42 page 57 Download our latest publication here!
