THERE ARE 51 SIGNS IN FRONT OF MY FACE
THERE ARE 42 VOICES SHOUTING AT ME
I HAVE COME HERE TO FIND WHAT I CANNOT REPLACE
I'VE COME WITH EYES OPEN JUST WAITING TO SEE
I HAVE TRIED TO ERASE WHAT IS NOW THERE FOR GOOD
WITH PERMANENT MARKER I WRITE INSIDE LINES
SOME THOUGHT I COULD NOT BUT I KNEW I COULD
I'M JUST PAYING ATTENTION TO 51 SIGNS
I THOUGHT I WAS COLD BUT FOUND MY SOURCE OF HEAT
I THOUGHT PURPOSE HAD LEFT ME BUT NOW I BELONG
I SPEND THE NIGHT UNDER NARY A SHEET
I BREATHE IN MY OWN AIR BECAUSE NOW I AM STRONG
THE CARS PASS ME BY BUT WHERE DO THEY GO?
I HEAR ENGINES THAT ROAR JUST AS IF THEY WERE MINE
THEIR LIGHTS PAVE THE PATHS THAT I HAVE TO FOLLOW
THEN I SEE MY REFLECTION AND KNOW THAT I'M FINE
BUT WHEN WILL THE DUST RISE UP AND CHANGE AIR?
THESE 42 VOICES CALL FIERCELY MY NAME
AND YET, I DON'T FEEL LIKE THERE'S ANYONE THERE
WHO CAN HURT AND ABUSE ME, OR CLOTHE ME IN SHAME
I'M READY FOR CHANGES I'VE WORKED HARD FOR
THE 51 SIGNS SHOW ME MY TIME IS NEAR
I CAN'T KEEP MYSELF FROM WANTING MORE AND MORE
AND THOUGH YOUR VOICE IS SILENT I KNOW THAT YOU'RE HERE

I'm a big movie buff! Ask me if I like it and I probably do!!!
I am a MAJOR "Heroes" and "LOST" FREAK!!! I even turn my phone off when they are on! I also can't get through the morning without my coffee and the Today Show!
The Celestine Prophecy, The Dreaming, The Odd Thomas series by Dean Koontz...Just a few of my favorites... I don't have room to list them all!!!
