Im thankful
Im thankful for the sunshine, and thankful for the night. / Im thankful for this one time, and thankful things go right. / Im thankful for the weather, wind snow rain and ice.

beliefs
We all have things that each does worship....and you with a negative thought of it...is this one tip..let them believe on what makes them free...for you or I just might not see...that each shall choose their own destiny...and shall therefore accept it eternally..so what will be shall really be..each to their own as you and me!!!

Life is hard and so damn wicked (but life is what you choose to make-make of it)
Welcome to my nightmare, come on in if you dare, a sinister world of death pain and dispair . This is a place you will never relax, and you will never know peace even if you beg or or you ask. Zero eight two eight the wolf was born on this date the year of sixty six, 1966. The 4th of twelve kids in the clan at the age of eleven I became a man, my very first best friend died about then, run over by a car in a coma for a month, the balance of his life was hanging on the edge. If he ever came out of this comatose state there was word he would never be normal again. Well he never came out of this life and death line the carefree and loving kid in me died. I made a pledge around about then that I would never have a best friend, no never again. I kept that promise for about five years cause my uncle B J G came to befriend me, i finally found someone who did understand me, he taught me to smoke, we'd laugh and we'd joke my sense of humour and life had awoke. 8 years later when I was 23, my second best friend died and left me, a perfect record. 2 best friends had 2 friends died. That very same I had another friend who I thought would be around right to the end, he's still around right? Guess again, he took his life with a sawed off gun, now number 4 are you ready for more?..I'll give e you a hint, traces of his blood still show on my door, that's why I won't call anyone a best friend anymore. Ive given up on friends cause they gave up on me. as I'm writing this poem I'm sitting about 15 feet from where one of my friends died, their maker did meet. Life has been rough pretty god damned unsweet. That's why I won't bow down I don't know defeat. I've been pretty crazy with all my hard drinking to this day I don't know if I would do anyone in...but if anyone were to act up even right now, who knows they might end up 6 feet under ground, or they might disappear and never be found. I'll keep on being defiant no matter what the cost, I am the way I am because of the friends had and lost. Yeah life is hard and so damned wicked!, but life is what you choose to make-make of it...life is hard and so damned wicked, but life is what you choose to make-make of it....

Work
You get up and still tired, can’t be late or could get fired. Tea or coffee get’s you wired, but you are glad that you got hired. / You pack a lunch to take today, your hair’s a mess it’s all astray. / Almost ready to get in the fray, to get all dressed and be on your way.

Doubt
I gaze up to the night, and wonder where you are, im not really sure if you’re really here. I think deeply to myself, do you true exist, is it all a joke I somehow had just missed. I asked so much of you, imploring in a prayer, I waited for an answer, and nothing I found there. I even made a promise to live a better life!! yet nothing much did change amidst all this heavy strife!! Then I realize that, things do really change, everyday my soul , encounter’s peace so strange. I look up humbly so, in awe but with no fear. I find im thanking you, for me still being…..here

Life is a beginning
Life is a beginning, but death is not the end / Relatives or family and maybe a good friend / You’ll no longer see my footprints, upon this hallowed ground

Rest In Peace
Just close your eyes and realize, that nothing really ever die’s. / Take a breath and then relax, memories are happy facts. / Visualize one glorious day, the happiness inside will stay.

A moment in time
a moment in time. .crosses ones mind, a torrent divine. .tosses sublime, and sadness and joy do so intertwine. .for its realized. .the memories fine. .are somewhere behind. .and never again experience. .that time. . . so hold to heart thine. .as i wiil do mine. .memories in mind. .a moment in time. . . .

I always find my way
What am I looking for, what do I need. / Open the spirit door, mind be freed. / What does my soul abhor,

CAN YOU?
Listen, can you hear that, the rustling of those leaves? / See the gently swaying of the branches on the trees? / Isn’t life so beautiful, in this summer breeze?
