The blondest hair
The bluest eyes
Legs like a gazelles
A body to entice

The lowest whisper
The softest voice
The greatest smile
Let’s rejoice

The fullest lips
A button nose
Intelligence
I do suppose

Tell me about you
I’ll tell you about me
A whiff of perfumed air
A stunning sight to see

You caught me off guard
It’s how it’s meant to be
It was love at first sight
I saw you in my dreams

A bundle of joy
Smiles and grins
A twinkle, a star
And so it begins
Light of my life
Heartfelt rejoice
A sweet baby boy
With a sweet baby voice
A toddler, a child
A grownups love
Heaven on earth
Sent from above

Happy is the journey
The one and only goal
Reaping what we sow
All we've built up can be lost
****** into the undertow
Lets ride to safety
Hand in hand
You my woman, me your man.
Together forever
Until our last stand
Winter, summer, spring, and fall
We'll show them,
We'll show them all!
It's fight worth fighting for
A shared and common goal
Let's take a risk, let's take the leap
After all, you never know.

My dreams consist of many demons
They haunt me through the night
I haven't any good reasons
To minimize my plight

I'm up before I'm ready
I go about my days
With the fear of going back to sleep
Just happy I'm awake

A never ending battle
A war I'll never win
Always starting over
The beginning of the end

Stopping for a minute
Just to catch my breath
Caught by a giant spider
Got stuck up on its web

Spun inside to be eaten
At a later date
How did I end up here
Could this be my fate

Trapped, I feel conflicted
Escaped my demons for a time
Worth every single minute
In myself, I do confide

Finally eaten and discarded
Bare bones and little waste
Though numb, I've been released
From occupying this place

Worn out my rude welcoming
I attempt to plead my case
Gone but not forgotten
I've vanished without trace

Woken just in the nick of time
Sweat pouring down my face
A dream within a dream
Dark as outer space

A form is born, yeah
Commission override
Straight into an aftershock
Imagining my pride

When it's over
The shift is made, yeah
Combustion in the pipes
That's my trade, yeah

Had to stop it
Called in the troops
Always slamming me
Kicking with those boots

You have passion
A truly great lovers tool
You had me so connected
But I was way too cool

Your a technician
A master of your craft
Asked for a promotion
He just sat back and laughed

So now it's game time
Just like tradition
Sent me out on
A greater mission

When completed
I went on home
My mother waiting
Speaking on the telephone

What came next
I shouldn't say
Had me distracted
Not in a bad way

Oh, how long I've waited
The games have just begun
Starting over
I've already won
I've already won

You mean the world to me
There is no denying
You cracked your whip
Truly death defying

I had a good run
No complaints
It's time I moved on
After finishing in first place

Nothing ventured
Nothing gained
Asked for a promotion
Now I'm getting paid

No dilly dally
Let's be on our way
There's nothing more to do
There's nothing left to say

I wonder if I'll be missed
If people will stop and reminisce
Of the days of yesterday
When I cherished every breathe

Will they smile in remembrance
Thinking of how I made them laugh
Or will they smile that I'm now gone
Swallowed up by deaths wrath

And to those people that I hurt
Will my apologies except?
Or will my plea for forgiveness
Be a pebble in the oceans depth?

A grain of sand on the waters edge
A single speck of dust
In the scheme of things
It's not so bad
Just a layer of Earths crust

I will join the soil
From where the flowers bloom
At least I lived a lifetime
Where others were taken way too soon

I will only regret not touching more lives
With my humor and my charm
But I've battled my own demons
That were cause for an alarm

My life had peeks and valleys
High days and the low
Always searching for the answers
Not many of us know

But my heart, my heart was
filled with love
For both animal and beast
There was good I saw in all
Even those who deserved it least

I do not know for certain
Whether God is real or fake
I know only of the story books
Written by a humans take

So in me there is some doubt
But my feelings' to believe
There is a greater power
That brings us to our knees

It gives us all some comfort
And that can't be all bad
If it spurns in you your virtue
Then it's worth its weight in sand

Eternity's forever
But nothing ever lasts
What's brought us all together
Which one of us will pass?

There is no such thing as perfect
When referring to a man
But the closest thing that we could come
Is clearly a woman

Such beauty around each corner
Over every curve and space
There is where I see perfection
Lost in their embrace

Mother Earth consumes me
Whether fair or foul
I use this term too loosely
Which may make people scowl

It's nice to have good intentions
But they're lost if you don't act
And they can weigh their heaviest
On a persons back

So LIVE before it's too late
Each moment of the day
Before you're laid to rest
Wondering what people will say

There’s something that’s inside me
Everywhere I go
It tries to disregard me
It tries to run the show

I opened up a can of worms
But that’s not any of your concern
If nothing else at least I’ve learned
Build it up to watch it burn

I did not win the contest
I did not win the fight
Losing became a habit
I wasn’t all that bright

I chased and chased to no avail
I tried and tried but always failed
I fell and fell time and time again
But I never ever got derailed

I stood up to my opponents
I had fortitude and drive
I gathered information
On what it’s like to thrive

I changed the stars above me
To better suit my needs
I became a man I’m proud of
Agree to disagree

Dare yourselves to succeed
Do so non-apologetically
Strive to break from the monotony
In this life to which we now lead

Packed into capacity
A red alert like the blood we bleed
Continue with what now seems bleak
Until we embrace possibility

Depression is now a known disease
That often has gotten the best of me
As I teeter on catastrophe
I still stand tall to fulfill my destiny

Do not bend, do not break
Do it, whatever it takes
To realize all our hopes and dreams
And live our lives as though we please

We’re stronger than we know
Less likely to implode  
Inclined to survive and grow
To face all that is now known

Why we’d break the ebb and flow
Like festered anger about to explode
Held in check, cool relief
Attitude that needs a tweak

We are not perfect, rest at ease
Stay with me, exhale, and breathe
Take your time, plant a seed
And watch it grow into prosperity

Words are just words
Until action takes place
Smiles last a while,
Don't let them go to waste
Good intentions are worthless
Some good deeds go unsung
You are the person you are
Until you are who you become
Change can be scary
Whether welcomed or not
What we learn about ourselves
Mustn't be forgot
What we put out into the universe
Is what we get back
Nothing comes from nothing
We must improve on what's lacked
Bend, do not break
Give, do not take
Be kind to each other
Be real, and not fake
It's never too late
To start a life you deem fit
It just takes a little know how
Elbow grease, and grit
Put your nose to the grind stone
Never ever give up
Give it all that you've got
Until you've had enough
Each day starts anew
You have from morning till night
To do what is required
To do what is right

When you’re alone with shadows
The absentee of light
They follow every move you make
If only out of spite
To the core that fades to nothing
To the light that never was
Now circles near the stratosphere
Causing quite the buzz
Created by design
Made to start anew
Raised by our forefathers
To wait and see things through
A faulty case conundrum
Meant to be the cause
Stifling gaze upon us
Waiting for applause
The ovation never comes
Is seldom ever heard
Vocal commentary
Spoken word for word
Distant hands out reaching
For help that never comes
Counting every move we make
Following the sanctity of crumbs

What am I supposed to do here
In this world that I reside
I want to do things my own way
But I keep getting denied

A lifelong search for where I belong
I know God knows I've tried
As curious as I have been
I take it all in stride

I have to find that one thing
That's keeping me alive
Something to go after
The reason which I strive

Be it women, money, or power
I need a tourist's guide
To show me which direction
Or who I need to bribe

To far off lands I'll travel
Along the countryside
To gather information
Or just enjoy the ride

Whether or not I find the answer
Or where solutions coincide
Then I'll decipher every clue
If only for my pride

Along the tracks
The train stood still
It lost its way
It lost its will
For the strength to carry on
The path ahead
When its will was strong
No more coal,
No self esteem
So the train stood still,
And in-between
The starting point
The final lap
This train fell;
Right off its track

A man and his pride
Stands firm on his ground
Whether alone
Or in a crowd
He holds on to it close
So they’re never apart
Close to his chest
Right near his heart
Although it’s just soil
Some dirt on the earth
It’s all that he’s known
Ever since birth
A soldier in fight
A lover, if right
His vision is clear
Out of this sight
Focused and proud
He’s a leader of men
Side by side always
Until the end

They said it’s a free market
That’s how it is today
Start from nothing, work hard, and get paid
Build yourself a life
Have two kids, a small dog, and a wife
But it’s real different
When you’re on the scene
Who’s version is this anyway,
Of the American Dream?
