She knew me all too well
The real me
Not what others could see
My crystal
Was my favourite
A comforter
And friend
Dear sweet crystal
She listened to me
All through the night
No matter how tough
The rants I said
Without meaning most
The vents I’d screamed
When my anger boiled
The jokes I told
No matter how bad
She always laughed
She believes in me
Even now
She supports me
In the things I want to do
She knows
My dreams
No matter how silly they may sound
She still thinks I’ll make it
My dear crystal
I owe her this
Where I am now
No matter what happened
She was always there
My crystal
The smile I needed
The guidance I wanted
Whenever I reached
She would be there
To encourage and love
I am here because
Of my crystal

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.
