Looking down your mind hits the bottom
Through your eyes not a blink
Adrenaline flows
As you stand on the front of your feet
On your toes.

Knuckles in white grasping rail tight
As you look too the bottom
Your minds fear of height

Your fighting the fear
Drops of sweat on the shirt
As your knuckles in white
Close the eyes makes it worse.

Lift a foot u turn green
get me down "NOW" . . . . . enough I've seen~

Friend is a word that I don't throw around
Though it's used and abused, I still like the sound
I save it for folks who've done right by me
And I know I can count on, if ever need be.

Some of my friends drive big limousines
Own ranches and banks and visit with queens
And some of my friends are up to their neck
In overdue notes and can't write a check.

They're singers and ropers and writers of prose
And others, God help them, can't blow their own nose!
I guess being friends has nothing to do
With talent or money or knowing who's who.

It's a comfortable feeling when you don't have to care
About choosing your words or being quite fair
Because friends'll listen and just go on by
Those words you don't mean and not bat an eye

It makes a friend happy to see your success
They're proud of your good side and forgive all the rest
That isn't so easy, all of the time
Those times they get crazy and seem to go blind!

Your friend might have to just take you on home
Or remind you sometimes, that you're not alone
Or ever so gently pull you back to the ground
When you think you can fly with no one around.

A hug, or a shake, whichever seems right
Is the high point of giving, I'll tell you this night
All wordly riches and tributes of men
Can't hold a candle to the worth of a friend.

O Gentlemen

It is your blood or theirs,
It is the human blood after all.
War may go on in the East or the West,
It will bleed the peace of world, after all.

Bombs may fall on homes or on outskirts,
They wound the spirit of life after all.
Our crops may burn or theirs,
The famine will kill humans, after all.

Tanks may move forward or recede
They tear open the Earth after all.
Be it the victory of war or the mourning of defeat,
Life sheds tears on death after all.

So, O gentlemen!
It is better to end the war.
In the courtyards, yours and ours,
It is better to keep the candles burning.

THE FIRST TIME I SAW YOU BACK 2002
I NEVER FORGET THAT YEAR..BECOUSE
YOU TATTOO IN THE DEEPEST PART OF MY HEART.
I REMEMBER THE FIRST WORDS WHEN YOU CALLED
ME(SIR)THE WORDS THAT LEAD ME TO MEET A
WONDERFUL PERSON OF YOU,

BUT AS THE TIMES GOES BY..I WONDER WHY I DIDN'T
SEE YOU AT YOUR FAVORITE TABLE..
I ASK SOMEONE TO THOSE WHO IS CLOSE TO YOU
AND I DONT KNOW IF I CAN STAND THE WORDS
(CANCER)YOU...ARE READY TO GO ANY TIME?

WHY...YOU LET ME LOVE YOU & PUT YOU IN MY HEART.
THAT ONE DAY YOU LEAVE ME IN TEARS,,
WHY IN THIS WORLD ..YOU LET ME SMILE & LAUGH
THAT ONE DAY I CRY ALONE?
YOU ARE MY SHOULDER TO CRY ON..BUT NOW YOU;RE
GONE..YOU PLANTED IN MY HEART YOUR FACE..
YOU'RE KINDNESS...YOU TEACH ME TO BE STRONG ENOUGH
BUT I NEVER THINK THAT YOU LEAVE ME ALONE IN
THIS LONELY WORLD..WHEREVER YOU ARE NOW..
YOU SEE ME ..PLEASE ..GUIDE ME STILL..
I NEVER FORGOT YOU,,,I MISS YOU..

It's way past midnight
no birthday bells
just the arrival
of another day..

Maybe a fresh start
my woman
is mad at me
over something frivolous..

It was my wish
she would call today
I'm one year older
Happy Birthday to me!

You used to make me feel beautiful,
You used to say I am wonderful,
And now when you have me next to you,
You say I look like a used broom.

You smile to everyone but me,
You praise the look of every girl but mine,
Because I'm already next to you
You let me down...

You do not treat me like a lady at all,
You do not let me feel I'm special,
You said "we are just friends", and wall,
That heavy wall apparted us at once.

I never be "just" somebody to anyone,
I know how unique I am,
I know every word or look of mine
Brings difference and makes a day.

You used to make me feel beautiful
You used to say I'm wonderful,
And now when you have me next to you
You let me down...

I want your lips to press against mine
our tongues to meet for the first time
I'm sorry I just don't know how to ask
so I hide my feelings behind a mask
I don't want to let it show

In bed I twist and turn
my eyes long to see you
my lips again with their curse
at night my want to kiss you is so much worse

When I wake up and the morning sky is as blue as the Caribbean sea
and love birds fly across it singing songs of love and luxury
I reach out to grab you as if my mind wont believe your not here
I want t kiss you, but I just don't know how to ask.

Friends have always been a inspiration to me
I am so very lucky to have friends beautiful like you all
People should never ignore things they should stand for
Fighting corruption for a better future for us all
At last i have got through but sadly it's cost me and my friends life,
I am quite poorly now it's time for me to go
My work is almost done now the days of sadness gone for good
It’s time for Daniel to have his angel and lots of fun
Bless you and everyone always with love and peace
Daniel angel from Cape Cornwall

I may have flaws, live in anxiety, even get angry sometimes
But I do not forget that my life
is the biggest company in the world...
And I can avoid its failure.
To be happy is to recognise that life is worth living
Even with all its challenges, misunderstandings, and its periods of
crisis.
To be happy is to stop being victim of problems and being the
author of your own story.
It's to cross deserts outside of yourself
And to find an oasis inside your soul...
It's to thank God each morning for the miracle of life.
To be happy it is not to be afraid of your own emotions.
It is knowing how to speak about yourself.
It is to have courage to listen to a 'no'!
To have the strengh to receive a criticism
even when unjust...
Stones in the road?
I save every single one, one day I'll build a castle....

My love
we celebrate your birth
on the night of Samhain
when the worlds are whisper thin
and your magic sings its sweetest song

Your love draws stars from the sky
lures spirits from the tombs
snow falls from summer skies
love so sacred and magical

Let us encounter
surrounded by forest
as the wind
whispers its secrets to the trees
we seek the sacred creek
leading to the river that kisses the earth
where flowers bloom in rapture to the earth

This day I am yours
you are mine
we are inseparable in death
by Any power or pain
for it is such true love
no death awaits us

Come with me my love
come back to the one
sense my spirit and take flight
let us see all of creation
let us seek favor from the divine

God and goddess we will become
gods of true and all powerful devotion
let us be graced
by the moon goddess
by the dragon of the stars
allowing us to burn hot with passion

Let us draw
from the power of the earth
alive and solid
beneath our feet
a fertile valley
all our wants and needs
will be satisfied

Blessed be
your feet which carries you to me
your knees which kneel in worship
your breasts of porcelain beauty
your lips which kiss with fire
blessed be your body

My love scented with jasmine
I seek you in silver slant of moonlight
your magic is all enthralling
I succumb to your witches cry
I come to your lair softly lit
your Wiccan pattern on the floor to guide me
save me from the river of flames
with the manifestation of your desires
for in you my love
I am charmed...
