Stop the death wish
Get sober
So what, it's over
Stop going out of your mind
That love was not kind
Yep, you were blind
Enough is enough
Stand up and be tough
It does not have to be so rough
Same old stuff
Broken hearts
Most loves departs
Yes, it smarts
Your heart will mend it's just one of your parts
Where love ends, it again starts
Broken hears
I know love is no joke
***** when your heart is broke
Relax and take a very long soak
Maybe even a couple of tokes  
Stop having a stroke
Broken hearts
They will pay their dues
For being so mean to you
Revenge
Go find someone new to *****
Maybe someone they knew
Broken hearts
It's crazy
Staying so blue
So what, that it is
over
!!

I have made a few
Sadly one of those was you
Yes it is true
How could I like all the things you did and do
I have made a list for you
There will be nothing new
No need for you to go through and pick and choose
It reminded me to
Of all the things that were said and done
Childish games!!
We are no longer young
You know what they say
"If it's to good to be true"
It usually is
I cannot figure out why your love never grew
What happened is not the picture In my mind I drew  
This mistake, it will stew
It will be awhile before my heart beats or even moves
Mistakes you cannot just undue
Do not misconstrue
This dream did not come true
The mistake "yes" it was you
!!

Then I will know that I have won
All I need
One that does not care what I have done
One that does not care about my past
Just one that knows the past does not ever last
The past is the past  
One that does not care that I have cried
One that loves all my sides
Just one that knows there is nothing that I would hide
and
Yes, I have  lied
One that knows that I have tried
One that I can confide (in)
One that will not allow our lives to collide
and  
That will never allow our love to divide
Just one that loves me
and
when ask it will not be denied
One that understands that I have a lot of pride
Just one that knows that I will always provide
and
One that will not take forever to decide
One, when they see me they will not sigh
Just one that will look at me eye to eye
One that will not run to the other side
If I  should ever try to commit suicide
One that understands that I may break their heart
and
would never allow it to tare us apart
Just one that would be smart in taking care of our two hearts

Just one that would call and ask.
How are you Mark??

Just one
ONLY ONE

I pray
He watches over you where ever
you may go
I pray
He blesses everyone that you may know
I pray
He provides you with lots of silver and gold
I pray
He will keep you warm and out of the cold
I pray
He will touch your soul rather you are
young or old
I pray
Your faith in him, you will uphold
I pray
His miracles you will not withhold
but you will behold  
I pray
If your about to fall you will look up to him
and not fold
I pray
You will accept him as your friend until
the end
I pray
All your love you will send
to your enemies and no longer will you offend
but they you will befriend
I pray
A helping hand you will extend
in this weary world where no one rejoices
I pray
His word you will always defend
I pray
When you look to the east
and you see that star
you will  remember "daily"
Born - was - the - King of Israel
I pray  
Each and everyone of you have a safe and
MERRY CHRISTMAS
!!
May joy once again come to this world

as the sun goes down
as i roam the house, there is no one to be found
silent with no sound
i sat down, to unwound
there is no light, dark, as i look around
how profound
this house with no life abound
sad to say none inbound
or none that will come round
Silent nights
where did everyone go
all my family, friends, all the people I know
where did it go
the love that use to flow
where did they go  
the hearts that once glowed
Silent nights
all is calm
with so much peace
life's release
it's not for me, it's not in my heart
but still disconnected and still living apart
no mother of my child
no lives to share or to take part
Silent nights
lonely I might
but by knowing God
he keeps my life bright
i always sleep
in heavenly peace
in my
Silent nights
!!
Dedicated to the lonely

to change our  fate
to start over and to have a clean slate
to stop the hate
to stop the mistakes
that we all constantly make
with that, I think we all can relate
God's rules. those, we do not have to translate
or ever debate
his word we need to reinstate
never recreate
or  berate
at the end, with him, we all have a date
heaven is really not that far
but we have to change the way things are
we all have to  bare his scares
it's his world where we all are
we cannot change what we have done so far
it's not to late
for a restart
for us to be a little more smart  
to stop the wars that we start
before it's time for us to depart
to fill everyone's heart
"we aren't"
it's not to late
to pull someone you know or don't know
in from the cold
to find a stranger and just hold
and console
or lead them back home
to do good like we have been told

it's not to late
to change our fate
the way it was foretold

that love would not last a life time
that this world would be filled with so much crime
that there would be so many mountains that you would have to climb
that life would be so fast, as the clock again chimes
that I would not have someone to call mine
now that I settle into my prime

I did not know

that I would not have sons or daughters
that life could be so easily slaughtered
that there would be so many times in rough waters

I did not know

that I would be as rich as I am
that I would only be I'm
that I would only be where I am
that life would not  be as shiny as a new dime
that there would be so little time

I did not  know

that there would be so many people,  that I once knew
that there would be so many things, that I would not do
that there would be so many things, that I would be new to
that there would be so many things, that I would not be wise to
that there would be so many times ,that I was not true to

I did not know  

that I would be witness to what people go through

I did not know

there would be so many times that I would not be proud
of what I stooped to

I did not know

that death could come so soon
that this I am not immune to
that God loves me no matter what I do
that he will forgive me to
