You can make it if you try
Just believe in yourself
Cash in on the opportunity
Never lose your dignity
Surge full speed ahead
Zero in on your target
Be the one to fulfill
Possess a strong will
You barged right in with not a care in the world
Of how deeply I'd fall and hit the ground
I knew I'd fell, for I hurt inside
But I could still be falling, there's no end in sight
Like Alice in a wonderland nothing seems quite right
Still I drink your potion readily and prepare to hold on tight
I catch you in my dream hoping you'll stay the entire night
My subconscious has a knowing, I'll be alone by morning light
Every time I get back up and dust myself down
You just steamroll right back through me, knocking me out
My palms left sweaty my mouth left dry
As I wonder if my feelings can lie
For here things aren't what they always appear
The pain of unknowing is my only fear
So, for now, your seas have calmed
And your storm has settled down
Left me cold and windswept
With droplets on my brow
I'll do what I must to do for now
For when night time falls again
I'll be back in my beautiful nightmare
Where you think of me now and then
My Light! My Shine!
My Guiding Star!
You show me my path
as I journey to afar

My Torch! My Flame!
My Candle's light!
You guide me through shadows
In these cold windy nights

My Radiance! My Blaze!
My Lustrous Beam!
You hold me through sorrows
though hopeless it may seem

My Spark! My Fire!
My Vivid Glow!
Just stay in front of me
and to You I will go

You see me smile

and you think I'm happy.

But I haven't been in a while

and hopefully you can know it's you.

You think I'm no longer sane

but you shuld know

that my smile holds pain.
You'll never have known a love so true
than the love of a dog when he loves you
The wag of his tail that wags just for you regardless if your happy or blue
He'll greet you every morning and stick to you like glue
He'll follow you around as though you are brand new
He'll never tire or get bored of his lot
For in his mind he'***** the jackpot
Cuddles on the sofa or walkies in the park
Curled up by the fire after a scrub in the bath
He doesn't care for material gain
He'll forgive you quick and he'll ease your pain
He'll look at you with love
best mates you'll forever remain
If he sleeps on his back with his legs sprawled in the air
You know he feels safe and loves his place
He doesn't feel vulnerable or insecure with you
He knows you're always there picking up his poo
He may be cheeky and he may be rude
But when it comes to the important stuff he's the coolest dude
