Mother's pride

My mom taught me how to tie me laces
She taught me how to cry
I used to comb her hair back and
Make it look
beehive  
She used to bring me ice cream
Whenever I was ill
And fetch me favorite teddy
I'd cuddle him
Big Bill  
We'd snuggle on the sofa
Or play a game of cards
she'd shown me what
love is

Unconditional


Her cakes were something heaven sent
And gone before the night
My clothes all ironed
Socks and pants
we always wondered why  
She'd cook me dinner
Shepherds pie
With pudded rice to follow
Fighting for the burnty bits
A battlefield did follow
I'd come in bleeding
Knee all red
A soothing voice
A mothers gift

Unconditional

I'm proud to call my mom
Eh mom
I'm proud to be her son
I'm proud she gave me
Everything

Unconditional

Eyes come closed to the darkness
Mind open to the thoughts of another age
Long long ago when the grass was green
And the hills smiled full
Full of golden

This was the time
This was the place
Where my pa held my hand
Where we played
Where we danced

Long long ago
When the trees held the fruit
Was the time for the present
And life for the full
Where we chased and laughed
Fell into the grass
Where he held my hand

Pillow wet from a blurred view
His hand no longer touching
As I remember today
Bring me the past
So I may live this way
Long long ago was a place I remember
Memories of the best of days
Where
My pa held my hand

The voice with no name whispered unto me
Live your life
You know you can
Be bold
Be strong
Believe

My head lowered
I knew this right
Yet scared did I just know
How could I live like I could want
How can it be just so

Each step
Each breath
That sound in my heart
Playing
Running
Beating
This call to run away


The voice with no name whispered unto me
It's time to make the change
The chains no more
The holds no bared
It's time to run the world

If I could fly
So that I'd sing
My song for you
My love
My song for you

On the wings of an angel
I fly
I'm in the air
On the wings of an angel
I'd come to see you there ..
Oh I miss you ....
Oh I love you
Your not here

You left my heart behind
You left us all
My love
Oh I miss you so
I miss you

On the wings of an angel
I fly
I'm in the air
On the wings of an angel
I'd come to see you there ..
Oh I miss you ....
Oh I love you
Your not here

Heaven has its place uptown
But I'm down here
Oh I miss you so
I miss you

On the wings of an angel
I fly
I'm in the air
On the wings of an angel
I'd come to see you there ..
Oh I miss you ....
Oh I love you
Your not here

If I could fly
I'd come to see your eyes
I'd sing my song
I'd fly for you
Id fly for you
My song for you

The passion in my anger
Saw my rage
Tasted in your eyes
Eaten from your heart

You doubted all my wisdom
I hated all your lies
My fear of never finding

This love
Forever blind

My burst of giving all to you
The pain I felt my life
This world has stopped
I'm changing lanes
The fish have come alive

The pond is full
Yet hunger waits
My hook is frail and torn
The hurt inside is red from raw
I fear a lovers burn

Soul of darkness covers my face
As the liquid sin quenches my thirst
For hunger
Can you hear the birds my friend?
Can you feel them fly?
Listen to the night time dreams
Hear my inner cry

The morning gods have lost their war
Done drinketh all the way  
This ****** night of horror rule
Pure madness seeks
My way

These eyes gone red through cracks of dawn
May never see the light
As crazy horses fill my storm
My horrors dream
Delight

I'd woken to the silence
No birds of death to flutter
Yet!!!

Sweated brow seeped my vision
These thoughts I'd wandered in
Unbalanced in a pool of dread
My nightmare was not
This over

Fingers pressed to form my eyes
No sleep that I must take
My troubled madness
Laughable
Please keep my eyes
Awake
Please keep my eyes
Awake

A War child is taken
Eaten by the solitude of a wasted war
For what gain do they feel
For what land
For what sea

These wars that pain so many
Yet solve no peace
A war child hidden
Tears me hard
Dusted faces
Forever broken
Skin of porcelain

I see land from the full to the empty
Such vastness to spare
Yet fight as we do
Regardless no care
No worry of life
Gone

The child no more
After scenes not wanted
The madness of life
A life not started
The photo's
Made
The flash not blinding

Yet
Peace is simple
Peace is free
Peace is out there
Let the chains break free
Let the children see
Let them be

A child
