Why do we hurt the little ones?
If we were not ready we should have had none
For often we become what we fear
Acting like our parents is near
Why can we just not love?
Promising them that we will rise above
For if we ourselves were abused
What is the reason we make our children feel used?
They should be cuddled and hugged
Not running second best to our latest drug
We allow our mates to ****
Don’t we realize it’s our blood we spill?
It’s very sad we cannot learn
For what a child does yearn
To be number one
Second to none
Mom and Dad not to be mean
To live a life happy and clean
We all have bad days
But we shouldn’t make them slaves
To what we have been through
We must soon realize it is true
Before all our children are lost
All these kids becoming our next boss
Take a look at our changing world
All the bombs being hurled
Maybe we should take a look inside
Realize where the blame lies

The dreams in my sleep
Are not the ones I want to keep
Walking with my eyes open wide
My thoughts need to glide
A million miles away
Isn’t where my world will stay
My thoughts have become clear
Answers in my life are near
Sometimes it is a delicate thing
This understanding life brings
Realizing pain comes and goes
When it will end nobody knows
Life is not read like a book
Have we ever stopped and taken a look?
Or are we wandering lost souls
Uncaring of our worlds tolls
Does someone need to turn on our light?
So we don’t forever sleep through our nights
Nightmares happen all the time
We just need to keep in rhyme
For if we were to lose the beat
We would forever sleep
Echoes of the old sounds
We would no longer be around
Missing the feeling of the soft rain
Being able to wash away our pain
Grasp the warmth of the sun
Take a moonlight run
Remember this is the way life goes
Don’t become swallowed by her woes

I bow my head before the alter
Sometimes I feel like I falter
Asking for guidance from high
So even to myself I do not lie
I sometimes feel lost and alone
Oh God what do I need to atone?
Blinded to only my footprints in the sand
I lost the grip of your kind hand
The diamonds have lost the sparkling light
Only the thunder and lightning left to fight
I crisscross each section
Of my emotion dejection
To find only it was I who let go
Simply that was the hardest blow
Why would I purposely walk away
From the love that forever has stayed
Seemingly I forgot the most basic rule
Leaving behind me the most important tool
I am created in perfection at it's best
Simply I have no need to feel anything less
From angels I am created in love
Answers coming quickly from above
I no longer stand dejected nor meek
It is peace and grace I will forever seek
Freedom in expressing who I am
Is now where I take my stand
If you have no understanding of this
You will never know my true bliss
I grasp tightly once again to the hand
Standing tall in pride of who I am
So my advice to you this day
Listen to the whispers follow the way
It will never lead you wrong
Be the only artist who writes your song

I am looking for special things
That will allow my true soul to bring
Peace and happiness to all I employ
Living in complete and utter joy
Will this person come my way
Within my journey on this day
Does he live within the light
Allowing his soul to take flight
Not living within society's norm
He sets himself apart from the storm
His boat will never sink
To caring what others think
For inside he stands in truth
Knowing he needs not to be a sleuth
To enjoy living with the wings
Of what true love will forever bring
So to some it may seen sad
But to me I am so very glad
I have the patience to wait
Until he comes to open my gate
For my love has never died
It has been tucked away inside
A warrior somewhere has this key
He and I will both know it is meant to be
God will be strumming our guitar
Satisfaction will only be ours
The world will see the passion we uphold
Allowing others to be so bold
To seach for what lies within the soul
Never falling into the gaping holes
Within his light we will always mingle
This journey he will know we do not walk single
We are always within the wings
Of what goodness he does bring
We just need to stand up to our hearts
Never being emarrassed to share those parts
His blessings will never end
His perfect love he will always send
One day he will bring this warrior my way
I know he will be the one to forever stay
Never bending to society's fight
I stand forever within his faith and light
