Death
no more
floats my mind,
Haunting in the
corners, scaring me.
It's how you live
your life to
walk with God
when you take your life.
Jesus will take
your hand and save you.
So, live careful
and you will
Forever
Live.

Yeah, I don't go to church anymore.  It's not that I have faith issues, it's just becuase I got bullied there a lot and I do not want to go back.
Well, at least you go to youth groups until you can get everything figured out.

Yeah, I'm Christian. I don't get to go to church because I'm so busy, but my school has weekly meetings with the local youth group, on Wednesdays. My mom is trying to situate that we go [to church] more.
