My deep song of Strength

I’m sorry I can’t be as deep as you
My eyes don’t see things the way you do
I try not to have the sadness in my life
That from my story might carry
Yes my life is not perfect

For being wronged has me made strong
So I carry on, I will speak my song
I will never change the way I am
My song speaks volumes of who I am
I am mentally strong more than most

I dare you to coast the roads I’ve tread
Some of you would surely have fled
My mind has been battered and beaten
But not out
Sharp as I tack it remains
In a battle of wits with me

You had better bring brains
This song it speaks of sweetness
Beyond mushy, love never pushy
And some one who truly hopes to gain
An inner understanding of you and why you came

My song tells you I been through it too
The heartache and the pain
Shame I thought I would never end
Until life brought me some true blue friends

This song also tell you
I see humor in all things death and life
Strife is part of life
Things were not meant to be easy

This song tell you I’m cheesy
I’m a good and a prank
I’m a total smart ass think tank

I try loving everyone and try to offend none
The things I say and talk about
I have been through myself
So the next time you judge me
Look at yourself
This is not perfect, but it is my song

Letter to my captor

When I was roving the earth with no bearing,

I met you; gave up my choice to be your captive,

I had no hope for peace and love ever again.

You are my captor but I lived in freedom,

My heart burst with joy and giggles from the love you showered me.

I thought love was lost but then I met true love in you,

Love that sticks when there is so much pain,

Love that stays when there seems to be no hope.

Love that has broken my tenderness and given me muscle to defend it,

Love that has removed the sensitivity of a brat and brought sensitivity of a lover,

You hold me captive with the sweet aura of your beautiful smile,

Touch my heart with you tender cuddle.

Flashes of your face, a daily reminder of your sweet smile,

I am a captive to your sweet love; freedom I seek not for this is sweet love.

Though there are no chains I am not running because your love is bond I love.

I give the keys to my all so that you run it,

I feel free falling because your love has me in a trance,

Trance for you have been patient when you tripped with anger,

Patient when all your senses told you scream.

Always Do Your Best, and Your Dreams Will Come True

It's not always easy to know
which path to follow,
which decision to make,
or what to do.

Life is a series of new horizons,
new hopes, new days, and changes
that come to you.
And we wll need some help with these things
from time to time.

Remember these things: Dream it. Do it.
And discover how special you are
Be Positive, for your attitude
will affect the outcome of many things
Ask for help when you need it;
seek the wisdom the world holds
and hold on to it.
Make some progress every single day
Begin. Believe. And become

Give yourself all the credit you're due
don't shortchange your qualities, your abilities,
or any of the things that are s unique about you
Remember how precious ife can be.
Imagine. Invest the time it takes
to rech out for your dreams;
it will bring you happiness that no
money on earth can buy.
Don't be afraid; no mountain is to big to climb
if you do it at your own pace.

What's the best thing to do?
That's simple:
Do your best
And everything else will fall into place

The Dream

dare to dream for tomorrow
i hear it in the wind
it beckons me to follow
like a cool breeze on a hot day

hope is a big word
it is what i long for each day
it means new beginnings
it means a new way

they say that there are 2 roads
i believe that there are more
one that is hard
one that is to good to be true
one with laughter
one with fear

i believe that at one point or another they cross
it is our job to find the right path
that is our hope
to find the right one
one that heals
but there are no truly easy paths
i know this it is a lesson that i have learned

i hold in my hand this dream
the dream of tomorrow
the hope for today
a smile to brighten my way
a hug to make me feel safe
a comforting voice
to soothe my fears
and i know i am ok i can press on
it will all right
i have found the road of strength
it carries me
it carries to the dream of tomorrow

Thankful

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know everything,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.

Marriage A-La-Mode

Why should a foolish marriage vow,
Which long ago was made,
Oblige us to each other now
When passion is decay'd?
We lov'd, and we lov'd, as long as we could,
Till our love was lov'd out in us both:
But our marriage is dead, when the pleasure is fled:
'Twas pleasure first made it an oath.

If I have pleasures for a friend,
And farther love in store,
What wrong has he whose joys did end,
And who could give no more?
'Tis a madness that he should be jealous of me,
Or that I should bar him of another:
For all we can gain is to give our selves pain,
When neither can hinder the other.

You Never Ask if I love you

You never ask if I love you
I know you will never ask
But if you look real close
Your eyes will widely open
Unto the reality that lies deep within my eyes
Where with each tear drop that falls
Is a count of time I have lied
The hardest task so far
Courage of leaving
Saying goodbye to what I thought was
For I know I don’t love you
Maybe I used to
But each an every hurting that was done
Each and every time never spend
Each and call missed
Each and every time never said I love you
All, an excavation for the love once had
Now I’ve got to set them all free
Find it in my heart to forgive thee
I tried my hand at love and lost
Lord knows, how hard I tried
And since I never witnessed any from you
I now know, am time barred
Its time to rise up and away
And thank God for one thing
You will never ask if I loved you.

There'll be no Good-bye my Darling

A lifetime together is a series of memories

Preserved are these memories, as memories in time

These moments are treasures, joyful remembrance

Reflections relived, one at a time

On life’s roller coaster we’ve ridden together

In concert together we’ve ridden as one

Those times we’re apart, I find in your eyes

Those special moments that I’ve memorized

Moments unspoiled, reflections untainted

Cherished moments, with which we’re both acquainted

Never spoil a moment, nor taint a reflection

Rather savor its essence and relieve its joy

For long after we’ve passed

God’s word is most certain

Rest assured, my Darling

There’ll Be No Good-bye!

A Strong Woman

	A strong woman
	is one who feels deeply and loves fiercely. Her tears flow just as abundantly as her laughter. She is not afraid to be afraid.
	A strong woman
	is both soft and powerful. She takes compliments to heart and treats herself like the queen that she is.
	A strong woman
	is equally visionary and decisive. She is able to hope when things look hopeless. She is both practical and spiritual.
	A strong woman
	in her essence is a gift to all the world.

Not Easy Task Son

My son,
Stop gazing at me
And walk straight ahead

I know
there is no road ahead
but open your eyes
and walk through
that fog of reality

keep running my son
keep running for into the unknown
you may stumble upon your
future of happiness

ignore the multiple bodies
my son
ignore the easy pleasures
that appear and disappear
like bubbles in a stormy sea

open your ear wide
and hear the message
of the whispering voices
open your eyes and avoid the ditches son
being alive is no easy task.

My love

I gave you all that i thought right
you, took it
you played with it
you danced with it
you took it for granted!

many a time advice seeked
of how wrong
of how right
of how true i was
but you took it for granted

now busy at my seat,
writing and thinking of loves lost
gave you one, none other has ever
thought time, would upgrade you
but you took me for granted

now, finally, i decide
i am walking away my love,
not because i dont love you
but because you dont love me
tired of being taken for granted.

a mistake you maybe..
but wont sit down , to analysize
for yesterday i cannot change
but tomorrow is in my hands
now i stand up .....
let me walk away while time is still at hand.

bye my love,
