Be courageous.
thick and thin trials and tribulation
those are ups and downs of life
like seasons they come and go
in dark situations be calm
there's always a light at the end of a tunnel
be courageous
To my grandfather
you were caring and righteous and humble as such
you gave all that you could and didnt take much
you spent hours in your study and even more with us
and though we were a bother, you never did fuss
you had a love like no other for all that you did
and kept not a secret, there was nothing you hid
your voice was so silent, yet your message so loud
just to be in your presense has made me so proud
i am your grandson, the son of your son
yet you were my father, my mentor, my fun
your passoin for birds and beauty with words
your collection of pictures and simple life scriptures
has amounted to more than you ever will know
you've meant more to my life than i ever can show
though i only knew you for the last years of your life
your message still lives in your son and you wife
i can only hope to become what you've been
i have devoted my life to see what you've seen
you will be remembered as a father and freind
as the one i could count on from beggining to end
i couldnt wait till the day i would see you again
now i can only remember the fun we had then
all the small jobs i did just to earn some more money
all the times that you laughed when i said something funny
the apricot jam, the christmas vacation
if there trully is a god you were his best creation
Your love
your eyes, your mouth, your subtle hair
is enough to make any guy stop and stare
your cheecks and lips so rosy red
just pinch me now i think im dead
heaven must be a place on earth
coz to an angel your mother surely gave birth
time is all that will keep us apart
but time has no meaning when it comes to my heart
there i can watch you from morning till night
and when the sun sets you are my light
your love has changed me, that much is true
i dont know how my life would have been if i never met you
but somehow i know you would still be there
youd still be the only one for whom i did care
see soulmates are destined since long before birth
to come find their partner on this giant called earth
i love you, and no words could ever say why
but its certain without you my spirit would die
i stop and prey that you can hear
as i slowly and softly shed a tear
for inside me there is a growing fear
that you wont always be my dear
and your beauty wont always be in my heart
as slowly but surely we grow apart
i will wait for you
love can bring eternal bliss
it can be something you will always miss
something so strong it can make you weak
can give you words when you cannot speak
it can heal a wounded heart
can keep you warm when your far apart
it can save someone when all hope is lost
it can change the future,the present and the past
it can make any summer bloom
and warm up even the coldest room
but when that love is taken away
and you run out of words to say
when you no longer have a reason to live
and you no longer feel the need to give
when that love is gone and your empty inside
your feeling weak and want to hide
thats the moments i long for your soul
for that 1 thing that made me feel whole
your my true love and my soulmate
i know this coz i believe in a thing called fate
but if you feel you need your space
then i will wait in a quite place
for the day you decide you love me
even if i have to wait for eternity
My grace
it wasnt grace that tought my heart to fear
it wasnt god that made my troubles dissapear
it wasnt faith that brought me through each day
it wasnt hope that told me what to say
it was your love that showed me who i am
your love made me take a stand
it was your love that took away my doubt
your love has showed me the way out
the devils words, the kiss of death
takes away my every breath
when i am down and cannot cope
nothing to do and i have no hope
thats when your light comes shining through
when i most depend on you
you do not forsake me, you do not leave
you always love me when i greave
you are my angel, you are my faith
and you are the reasons why i feel safe
when life
when your feeling down and out
and life has left you in a pool of doubt
when the answer feels so far away
and your left with nothing more to say
let me be your shining light
and cheer up even the darkest night
when you do not know which way to go
and you feel like you will never know
when hope seems like a distant dream
your on the edge and want to scream
all you have to do is take my hand
and i will help you understand
when trouble comes and calls your name
and life will never be the same
when the clouds hav no silver lining
and you feel like you are drowning
ill be there waiting for you to see
there is no doubt that you were made for me
A starless night
twas a starless night as black as death
chilled was the air to freeze my breath
the fog so thick, the street lights gone
could i be the only one
twasn't the air that chilled my bones
twas the thought of bieng alone
when you left you, left me scarred
feelings felt will now be barred
when i walk, a silent lake
i do not live, although i wake
you do not notice how i shake
was our love yet another mistake
twas a hope that gave me light
hope that made me want to fight
love can be a splendid thing
but love doeth pain with it bring
love as sinister as the dark
can stop a howl, can stop a bark
can freeze the very bones within
and leave the way it doeth begin
so how doeth love know my name
when I, do not play its game
the same as on that starless night
death came to me with all its might
My angel
your my guiding hand, you understand
your my pathway to the promised land
a freind in need, a freind indeed
a freind fro who'm id gladly bleed
someone i care for who cares for me
my life, my love, my reality
your my reason for living, you are my love
my guardian angel from up above
your my first breath every morning, my last at night
whenever im down, your my shining light
ill follow you to the ends of the earth
every day is like a second birth
your closer to me than my family
and for the rest of my life, will always be
your my tanzenite, my piece of gold
my feelings for you will never grow old
you saved me from a burdened life
so i thank you for taking away the knife
your the other half of my troubled soul
and the only thing that can make me whole
Humanity
On a cold,dark,silent street
the wind whispers with the sound of feet
an open alley brings with it greed
where beggars fight and scratch and bleed
where hobo rats bring with desease
a beggars heart slows down to cease
of cold and years of stale bread
no one knows that he is dead
a dog walks by and sheds a tear
for loss of hope and growing fear
humanity has lost its love
now all we do is push and shove
so many lives lost within each hour
in the struggle to become the superpower
a silence after every war
bloodshed worse than the one before
a world where cops are the most corrupt
and governments have given up
time stands still and a nation cries
as yet another person dies
this is the land that they call free
but my story tells of reality
as dawn approaches the body is found
and death has come without a sound
the only witness a lonely dog
that disappeared within the fog
O! Lord God
Looking at your Wondrous Love
I am humbled,
Thus I am rooted in you.
Looking at your Wondrous Grace
I am blessed,
Thus I am thankful.
Believing in your Powerful Blood
I am cleansed,
Thus I am redeemed.
Believing in your Living Word
I am encouraged,
Thus I am strengthened.
Looking at your Creation
I am amazed,
Thus I am praiseful.
Accepting your Forgiveness
I am revived
Thus I am refreshed.
