Nov 2009
fear eats your heart and drinks from your veins
whilst hope soothes your aches and some of the pains.
Just words put in order, a sentence of death
the clock is ticking, make the most of each breath

Some win the battle and some lose the war
Some weapons are expensive, too much for the poor.
Never give up and focus that strength from within
Whilst the end is a thought it's one for the bin.

I've been there, i've lived it, thats why I can say.
pump that blood to your heart and shout "i'm not afraid"!!!!!
Optimism brings light and light brings day
Fight for life whatever anyone may say
