What a fool I've been
To fall for one so mean.
I thought he loved me
But he only hates me.
For way too long I've loved him
When maybe I should have found a shim.
It's my own fault you know
To trust him like I do.
He's just another to betray me
I'd rather be single and free.
Life is full of ups and downs
Sadness, smiles and frowns.
Happiness tinged by sorrow
Maybe it'll be better tomorrow.
I'd rather be on my own
Living without my phone.
Words are hurtful I know
I just want to go slow.
Long ago I prayed for love
Now it's come to push and shove.
Onwards I'll go without looking back
Onwards along the beaten track.
Searching for true happiness and freedom.

It may be time to sing myself as Walt once did,
To say a bit about the me I am today.
What I’ve become in part due to the time, the marks, the pain.
To view the color jade, hear the quiet, and smell the walls that bear no mark.
And really feel the changing, merging, growing cells deep inside
It could be fine to muse the newest parts and see the lines.
Maybe allow the me that has become to walk anew and breathe this air.
And sing just like I am, this song I’ve learned by now…
The notes come out in such a way that I surprise myself-
I want to keep it and change nothing, no color, no sound, no smell.
This time the song has changed and for the good.
The notes are knowing, feeling, pregnant with time.
And the singers body full and made and formed
By hands that touched and found and knew and made the song
Is just the way I want, and who I am and why I sing this way-

The tainted troubles of a disturbed youth
The trail he trudges is so uncouth
Anxious to finish his boundless battle
While the world around him will shake and rattle
Revealing what has been buried below
The earthquake rumbles to show the show
Desperate to conceal the demons so deep
He struggles to find what he cannot keep
To hold to the things of his deepest dreams
To try to shadow his shrill screams
Muffled before they leave his lips
How common it is as he studies his scripts
Knowing the reckoning will be revealed
All the while he searches for a shield
A barrier to defend him from his own devil
So that he may be able to recoil and revel
But as the ground caves in and he’s buried below
He finds himself planted in a plateau
Unable to change yet longing to leave
He cannot complete what he’s attempted to achieve
So he lies down below with no stop in sight
As he debates with himself whether to forfeit or fight
To take the on his demons face to face
Seeing his faults and finally to embrace
All the things that he could change if he simply strived
It could be as if he was restored and revived
But can he embrace his own mistakes and meet
His other side to make him complete

Author: William Blake
To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
God appears, and God is light,
To those poor souls who dwell in night;
But does a human form display
To those who dwell in realms of day.

Self-esteem
is a point when one
feels low or under the gun
What must one do, but make it fun?
Self-Esteem starts, on page one
where Self-Respect, must be done
we must mature, before we come
to the place, of Proven Ones!
now you've earned, manys Respect
the word is out, but what the heck
now we must walk, by Deeds and Trust
As an Example, of His true Love!
next thing we learn
Is have "NO FEAR"
trust, Hope and Faith
but "NEVER" Doubt Love!

Knowing God is Nearby
He gives You the Strength
When You "Look Up High"
For He Has Powers, We Cant Deny!
You need Love and Affection
"Empty Days"
with "NO" Connection
God will Teach you, The way of Give! (Love
It Comes from deep
within the Soul
and then we Reep
that what we Sow!
I will Help you, what I can
A Trusted one, to be a Friend
If You take the time, To find the "Right One"
You Will find Love, Believe Me Hun!

As the sun sets low upon the horizon,you think of days gone by,the fun we had the way she felt as she looked at you with a twinkle in her eye,the silly things she used to do,all the love she had for you,its all slipped away like the end of the day as the sun sets low upon the horizon,you shed a tear as the sun dissapears but do not fear,dawn will come again.

Love like an arrow through the hart,
Hard to live with and deadly to live without,
The security of the word that we all love to hate.
The time that you have the time that you lose,
How do you know when this will end.
Through your choice or theirs,
Or worse through the fear that grips us all,
The death of the one you love so dear.
The love that you find should be pure and true,
If it is keep it and hold it as long as you can,
If the love is real you will grip it with all your might
And not let it stray to so-called pastures green.
The trick is to find a love that is mutual and never let it go,
Love her till the day and hour that you die.
If this is your chance to love forever,
Love for today and love for tomorrow,
And little by little there will be not two of you,
There will only be left the one unit.

u can never feel my pain...
u can never feel my suffer,,,
u took my heart away and u left me stuck in the middle
i thought u r mine than i thought one day u can be
hurts me to know u r not willing to be
when i think of u and me
simply i can say...
it kills me!
..yesterday i was waiting for a miracle ...
i didnt know how it can happen or what it might be but i beleive its coming for me
till around 12 i saw it knockin my door
and it was u behind the screen
tried to be like a thief...
tried to steal as ,uuch as i could ..from ur eyes ,ur lips,ur everything...
i didnt know when a miracle can next happen to me...
but u will still not be able to know how it feels...
as u cant know that time never heals...
i know u r not mine and u dont ever wana be
but i will always have that dream... of "you&me"
I desperatly love u!
