The Kiss
By Joeysguy

Meeting for the first time under the moonlight
I leaned over and kissed her on that summer night

That kiss was in a loving way
It led to us seeing each other every day

That was how our feelings were started
I went into the relationship wholehearted

Skipping past the years that have gone by
To a time of now that brings a tear from my eye  

I saw her when I looked through the door
She was passed out on the bathroom floor

I grabbed the phone and called nine one one
The operator told me what must be done

I was giving her mouth to mouth with my breath  
Trying to revive her and hoping to keep her from death

The ambulance came and took her away
At the hospital she died that very day

I was with her as she laid on the table
I was broken and very unstable

It was so hard leaving her and walking away
The last kiss, I think it was that day

A Marine
By Joeysguy

This fellow at the age of twenty
A Marine he became to be

He was no different than any other Marine
He stood proud, he stood tall and he was lean  

He vowed
That he would make his family proud

After finishing his training he was hurt        
An accident left him bleeding, broken, and in the dirt

Was someone watching over him that day
People wishing him well with lots of kind words to say

Off to the hospital where doctors put him under the knife  
He had a few set backs, he’s learning new ways of life

He lost the ability as a Marine to go and fight
For a new career he has something else in sight

So many people’s hearts he had won    
Everyone is so proud he’s far from done

Not much matters when it comes to size
He still stands tall in our eyes

I know he has more to give and he’s not done
I know this, because he’s our grandson

We wish him much love
From one of us here and one of us from above

Going Home
By Joeysguy

I’ve heard it said that heaven is home
Is it true, is heaven considered home

If heaven is home I’ll be there one day
When will that day be I can’t really say

Lots of people there I will see
Only a few are waiting for me

I’ve had many dogs with me here
I guess I will see them up there

My mother is waiting and also my wife
I’ll be going home at the end of this life

Fear no more
By Joeysguy

I always thought of the day I would die
To say that I wasn’t afraid would be a lie

Since my wife is gone who I love and adore
So now to die I fear no more

Americans
By Joeysguy

Our founding fathers are probably turning over in their grave
From the way our present leaders behave
Our leaders are giving our country away    
They upset the American people most everyday  
With the new healthcare some people were offered a deal    
While some Americans can’t even pay for their next meal
This administration is giving away our country  
Foreigners sneak over our borders and could get amnesty
Our leaders seem to favor foreign people
Possibly more than the American people
The Government is failing at protecting our border States
Hate and uneasy is something this administration creates
Washington is slapping Americans in the face
To file a law suit against an American State is a disgrace
Our Constitution are the laws that govern our nation
Our forefathers wrote our Constitution with determination
We are the United States of America and we should never
Let any foreign country come between us, not ever
What’s happening to this country is a shame
This administration is mostly to blame
Our leaders think they know best
What they are causing is unrest
And shame on a President of the United States
If to do the right thing he hesitates

At What Cost
By Joeysguy

If you are going to a bar
Save lives, don’t drive your car

At what cost for that drink
Before you take it, stop and think

Just a bad choice that you could make
That bad choice will put lives at stake

With a life, someone could pay
The loss of life for your drunken day

Don’t use your seatbelt on your drunken day
Why should you live to walk away

So I ask, at what cost will that drink be
Just a few dollars to destroy a family

If you live you will  go to jail
Tell your kids where to send your mail

Driving drunk the cops will pull you over
Hopefully before you ****, so drive sober

P/S, Lets not forget about cell phone texts
While driving you could **** and cause wrecks

Please
By Joeysguy

What the word please means to me
It’s a word I hardly ever use
It’s a word that weakens me

To me I feel the word relates to beg
I don’t know which would be harder
To say please or eat a raw egg

I used the word very few times in my life
I used it more times in one day
when I asked to please save my wife
