A simple excuse is what most need and they think
that justice is a synonym for revenge. They claim
that all they do is natural and not an act of distress.
So how can i quite this part of me that at any tipping
point someone will linch and act uncontrollably
achieving only to hurt those he or she loves.
I fear that most can not bear to lose any more and they
would give into a comfort zone, into zestless and
voiceless acts only leading to their ruin.
The world is a harsh place and there are those who
would see others suffer for their own gain, even
flay those who would try to help them.
Difficult to be stronger than our excuses but what is
worse from losing ourselves.
You smile at her like she's the only girl in the world
I remember when you smiled at me like that

She's beautiful with her dark brown hair, tan skin and brown eyes that sparkle when she smiles her perfect smile.

I'm sorry I'm short with blonde hair and pale skin
I'm sorry my green eyes don't sparkle
I'm sorry my smile isn't perfect
But most of all
I'm sorry that I'm not her
But just remember...the man that I love...will always be you

James Joyce
Gentle lady, do not sing
Sad songs about the end of love;
Lay aside sadness and sing
How love that passes is enough.

Sing about the long deep sleep
Of lovers that are dead, and how
In the grave all love shall sleep:
Love is aweary now.
