Th Words No Longer Brave
Stu Harley Oct 2012
i shall
walk softly there
when you
prepare thy grave
when the soul
have no more
air to breathe

Stu Harley Oct 2012
Lord, I have paid my dues, and now
I have nothing left to lose.
I used to fear life, but now
I am spreading my wings and ready to fly.
I have something to prove to myself, and
I am determined to soar high.
It's a beautiful feeling
above the clouds of fear and doubt.
