Ah yes, the word Frustration
It's the maker of impatience
The words calm and collect
Have no relation
Just when you think all is right
You find yourself waiting for that time
That check, that special person to arrive
Failure to deliver, trust taking a dive
When you count on something
And it does not happen
You get upset and uptight
And you say never again
Then you do it all over again

You depend on another
To make you feel better
If there is dissension
There is apprehension
There are no tears
No fits to disagree
The pain in your eyes
Is but a silent scream
You can't bear to be without
The one that you love
There's a need in you
You can't be without
So honey I'll not go
See my open arms
There's a debt that is owed
I'll keep you from harm
So you shift the weight
That resides on the shoulders
There's too much on your plate
Let me take those huge boulders

About my 2nd Husband

Guilt is not your friend,
But is it…it depends
Guilt, the stink of sludge
And the color of mud
Guilt, the reminder of the past
Of harm and pain surpassed
Guilt, is the devil in disguise
Waiting for your soul to die
Guilt, is slime with all beauty aside
Covering your beaten hide
Guilt, keeps you in check
When you want to say what the heck…
Guilt, when you feel you should
But it is something understood
Guilt, partners with regret
Consequence's with debt
Guilt, is like a death
It reminds you of the your dread
It hisses from the lips of those who are pure
It turns their gentle hearts insecure
Guilt, it makes the stomach churn
When things are about to turn
Guilt is not your friend,
But is it…it depends

I said prayer for you today
I hope you didn't mind
I asked God to comfort you
And put you tears behind
I prayed for peace and mercy too
To help you through these days
And for his loving guidance.
As he leads you on your way
You need not walk this path alone
Just turn around you'll see
You have families and friends
To help make your pain ease
I prayed for miracles
And hope and happiness
And also asked to bless you...
When you are so stressed
I said prayer for you today
I hope you didn't mind
I just wanted to make sure
As I knelt down to pray
Please god, bless us America
Watch over and keep us strong

No ticky, no washy
No shoes, no service
No squishy, no squashy
No keys, no office
You snooze, you lose
No prison, no justice
No respect, no love
The good and the bad
The ying and the yang
Things have a way
Of working itself out

I've been drowning in my tears,
Have I shattered all our years?
I never thought we'd be this way,
We live apart but in what way?
We pass each other without a glance,
Can you give me another chance?

Looking back at all I've done
I've realized how I've done you wrong
Faith and trust, that I must bring
To make you see "me" once again
Patience and laughter,
They will soon come
For now, all we have is our love
I see now what I didn't then
Such a fool I've been
I was blinded by a fog
But you saved me from the bog

Forever Soul Mates
Our nights are filled with love and passion
Our hearts filled with joy and compassion
Our souls are one in the same
After we've both been down that lonely road
Struggling with our decisions and our demons
We kept on trudging , knowing someone was out there
The lessons we've learned will pay off someday
Fate decided it was time to let our souls finally meet
The sparks flew at our first embrace
When I laid eyes on you, I was not scared to meet you
I knew you were out there, I finally met you
My soul bared before you, you hold it so dear
You're my dream had come true
I give my heart, body and mind to you
You're my everything dear

He's all out of love and he loves me no more
He said he couldn't fake it with me anymore
I didn't see it coming, maybe I refused to see
That he no longer wanted to wake up with me
His eyes were cold, his voice was like ice
He looked in my eyes said "I want a divorce"
The thing that hurt worse, were the words to follow
"I don't love you" and his eyes were hollow
It hit me so hard, I could have hit the floor
I grabbed my keys and headed out the door
I drove around the block, with nowhere to go
I came back to my house, that too will go
Those four words I'll never forget
From a man who promised
To love me no matter what

We're older and wiser and
Love each other with all our might
We appreciate each other with respect
This is the best time of our lives
We may not have much time together
Since we met so late in life
But at least we can spend it during
The best time of our lives
We rush home with anticipation
To fall into each other's arms
And cry happy tears of joy
Just to see each other again
We laugh and we cry, we dare not deny
The love we felt all along inside
A love that was meant to be
We've been feeling all this time
We just had to wait for the right time
When forever is never enough time
To spend together the rest of our lives

Everyday we get up
feeling stronger everyday
Everyday we get up
Glad to see another day
Some battle we have fought
Just to stay alive
Some battles we have fought
Just to see another day
Some battles we win
Some battles we lose
For reasons unknown
For reasons we choose
We all have our battles
That we must fight
Some harder than others
Some you take in stride
When your heart is full of love
You have the courage to fight
When your heart is full of love
You can do everything right

“Live free n easy with no resentment”
Oh what a careless statement
I don't think that's even possible
In a world that casts judgment
So quick to accuse when challenged to a duel
A cowardly try to get you to cry
Even when your feelings were feared
You're not there to be sheared
And laughs when you're made the fool
Since they have the power to be cruel
Heed the signs or cast the stone
Ignoring the screaming groans
When you're the one cut to the bone
Then expect your help in return
