I want children and with the way my life is going that isn't going to happen.� Everytime I put my heart on the line the guy gets bored and absent.� When did finding someone to love and love you back become nonexistent?� I'm in a relationship at the moment and all I get is the silent treatment when I want to talk about the future.� He's is a great guy and says he wants to settle down, but I only hear this after a six pack.� He's stationed in Vegas and I just got called back home to Texas to take care of my sickly mother.� I've lived here in Vegas�part time since before thanksgiving and now when I'm just beginning to get used to the weather here my mom falls sick.� I tried talking with my boyfriend about what to do when I leave... either take a break or push through the distance... and I got a shrug of the shoulders.� I know I shouldn't dwell on the little stuff but he proposed a week after I moved permanently to Vegas... or so I thought.� I told him I would think about my answer and I was about to tell him yes when I got the news about my mother.� I'm out of answers and I don't know what to do.

Chased Turning around, A speeding bus. It's coming after us, no, it has caught us, and two other cars. Fiberglass and metal tangling together like siblings fighting. Glass flies as wild as a caged bird being freed. Glass in my hair. Oh God! It's everywhere! Blood-stained clothes from the cut in the back of my head, Broken bones, bruises, and lost memories. Our truck is an accordian; No use saving it now. We CAN'T pay the hospital bills, Bill collectors suffocate us. WE CAN'T GET AWAY! But it's only the endless chase with reality.
DEDICATION: This poem is dedicated to my mother, Frances Rader. When I was 10 years old, my mother and I were rear-ended by a city bus on our way home. My mom's neck was broken, and I got staples in the back of my head. I have never been so scared. I thought I was about to lose my mother. So, this is to you mom, I love you, and be safe.
