someday i will be a man
with a kind and righteous heart
even when love does not find me
i'll still have a lovely start
for although i’m not a charmer
and although i am insane
a righteous light may guide me
through the shadows of resentment and pain
i once wrote a poem called "shadow of regret" now that that stage of my life had ended, this is the refutation to that, being righteous did indeed guide me through that resentment, and all it took was a little persistance

Turn back, O Hands of heedless Time!
When Life flowed gently day by day,
With no devices to outweigh
The golden melody sublime.

O! to regain those precious years;
A fortune I would swiftly give
If I perchance might gladly live'
Undaunted by these haunting fears.

Turn back! O Hands of cruel years
When Tranquility reigned supreme
And only Rapture wakened tears,
Life surreal flowing as a dream.

Hi, **. Hi, **!
It's off to work I go.
Chewing on some coffee grounds
and choking down my smokes.
Hi, **. Hi, **!
It's time to start the show.
I'll attach a cordial mask
and leave my brain at home.
Hi, **. Hi, **!
Oh say it isn't so.
This place will be the death of me
and then they'll work my bones.
The biggest coward is man who entail a women’s love

with no intention of Respecting  her .. !!

She had a summer Smile ..

which hid her winter frown ..

she had not moved from her place ..

Though she was burnt down ..

In her radiant glow ..

Dark was his face and ..

the darkness of her fear absorb the light of Love ..

She could hardly believe that she was alive ..

She hid her being low ..

His heart and soul were bent upon this all ..

She drew herself up as bravely as she could ..

She doesn’t want to ..

be destroyed yet again ..

All she wants to is break free from her pain ..

But to do so ..

She needs to get rid of her fear ..

“Come,” said the Man, “give me your hand, I will lead you to the world of Trust.

The Respect you deserve.”
