TheSorryJew stepped upon his box, not smiling for once. He looked quite serious and grim, and the glittering of a tear could be seen upon his face.

''This poem is very special to me, because it's about a very special person, about whom I care very very much. I consider this my best poem yet.''

She tried to hold tears back,

but the problems continue there attack.

The tears now have free reign,

she is in so much pain.

Her life is ripped apart,

Problems continue to hit hard

Why her?

I guess there is much for me to learn.

Because I sometimes doubt if God exists,

If he does, why does he allow this?

Always those who deserve the best

Are given the hardest test?

You don't deserve this, not at all

but you must stand tall

I care for you,

This is really true.

If you must leave me,

So that be.

Just know that I will wait for my dear,

I hope my words you hear

I will count to 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

I will wait until my favorite flower blossoms again.

Smiling as she pulls out two pieces of paper, she listens to the awesome poems by her dear friend.  Rose waits until he was finished then clears her throat, and softly speaks.

He landed on these shores,
Brand new to this way of life,
Unaware of troubles and wars,
Leading to times of strife.

Playing poker to pass the time,
Winning some and losing some,
Just trying to make a dime,
Leaving the table with a nice sum.

Quite crafty and skillful with writing,
With perfect ease the words do flow,
Reading each line gets more exciting,
Waiting for the next one he will bestow.

Seeing the smile on TheSorryJew's face, Rose hugs her dear friend hoping he liked the poem.  Nervously she pulls the other paper on top to read another poem.  A poem for someone special, and she knows Shawn is around here somewhere.  She clears her throat once more before speaking.

For someone that is completely awesome,
The way he looks at me, his intense gaze,
Our love so strong, will forever blossom,
Never will diminish, lessen or faze.

Calling me his good luck charm,
Even though I'm the one who is blessed,
Always keeping me safe from harm,
Laying all my fears to rest.

We guided each other along,
One day our hearts fell into place,
Knowing then together we did belong,
A life together we will embrace.

Reassured by his loving smile,
Overcoming shyness to being bold,
Expressing feelings with such style,
Leaving nothing again to be untold.

In his arms I feel such strength,
Mess with me, you tempt his wrath,
He will stop at no length,
To set you on the right path.

Surprised him one day with a fishie face,
Made him smile, now he wants to see it often,
Looking in his eyes makes my heart race,
Seeing his smile, makes my heart soften.

The  passion grows more each day,
Intertwining real life and a game,
Side by side we will forever stay,
Knowing soon he will come to claim.

Looking around, Rose smiles as she focuses on Shawn, and makes her way to join him.  Looking back to smile and wave to TheSorryJew, she is anxious to hear more of his awesome work soon.

Murder done for a price
Avarice thoughts to entice
Fights fought, win or lose
Injustice is yours to choose
A blessing from the God Father

War of their soldiers comes after
A billion dollars made from crime
Riding the lives of foes in their prime
Silenced forever, a victim of a hit
