Borrow time
I am living on borrow time now
Because I am living all
I am going to live
Because I am not a young men anymore
I am amen of a certain age
Also my younger days are over
Because I lived them already
Now I just waiting for my life
To end here on earth
It is my father that owns my life
And my life is in my father’s hands
Also I don’t know the date
Or the time I am going to die
Because only my father knows that
Yes friends my life here on earth
Is coming to an end any time now
So I am just saying good bye
To you all
Before I go to heaven
And there I will be re united
With my dear loved ones
That died before me

Many years ago I live in Boston
There was lots of violence in the streets in Boston
Also there are people who smoke street drugs
And I know that they are destroying themselves with street drugs
I don't know how they get the money to buy street drugs
I hate to see them smoking street drugs
Also there is not safe to walk in the streets in Boston
Also in the subway station it is not safe either
During the day I went to school so I could get my education
Because I know that is very important to get an education
If I don't have an education I won't be able to get a job
I know that I want a job so badly
I keep looking for jobs in the newspaper
It is very hard to get a job this days
All the jobs that are available pays the minimum wage
And I know that it is very hard to live on minimum wage
So when I came to Boston I didn't spoke one word in English
I had to learn English in the school
I t wasn't easy for me to learn English
In Boston I lived across from the Charles river
Every day after school I used to ride my bike on Charles river
And the sun was out
We had good weather in the summer
We never had any rain coming down from the sky
When the sun went down I returned home with my bike
Now it was night time finally
We had our dinner
After dinner I went to bed
Because I had to wake up early
I had my breakfast
Then at 5:30 I arrived at school

Bottles and diapers soon I will have to have
When this baby will come
It will be a necessity for this baby
I will have to have plenty of bottles and diapers around
Because they run out fast specially the diapers
I don’t want to run out of the diapers when the baby is around
Bottles and diapers have to be around where I can reach
Bottles and diapers the baby will use it every day
Until he is a child
And when he gets to be a child
I won’t have to worry about bottles and diapers again

We became members
Of the God family
And also our father welcome

Also our father had given us to eat
Our baby food
Then he had placed all of us
In our cribs to have a nap

So many people
Lately had broken
Hearts
And they  also
Had been in
Excrutiating  pain
They took
All the
Pain killers
Hoping that
The pain would go away
But to be honest
It wasn’t working at all
We prayed for God
To take the pain
Away

Brotherhood of men
Thanks god we are brothers
That our father had made us
And we live together
Here on earth
That our father had made
The earth before he made
Us  he had made the earth
With his holy hands
Also he had made some
Trees so that we could
Have some shade
And pure air
That the trees give us
And then he made
The human beings
We don’t give any problem
To our father
We are happy that
We have our father in our  lives

Brother, you are a lot older than me
You have a wife and a son to look after
You have MS. That makes it harder to walk
But you walk anyway with crutches
You have also to work to pay the bills
We communicate by email
We were both born a Christian
Brother, I pray for you every day
Have I ever told enough that I love you?
Brother, I even miss you

Brother, we get older every year
We can’t stop getting older
Brother, we are very close to each other
Brother, it was God that created you
And if it wasn’t for God you would not be here
And you would not be my brother
We live on earth because God put us on earth
We have different lives
You have your life
I have mine
Nobody ever told us that live was easy
It is difficult
And we must live one day at a time
Brother the night will end soon
And a new day will begin
It is fall here
The leaves of the trees are changing its color
From green to Gold
And the days are shorter now
It gets darker by 5:00 pm
I find it very depressing
Brother if I lose you some day
My life will be empty
And there won’t be any body else to replace you
And I must grieve
And I will keep you in my prayers
Brother, we were not meant to live forever
Our body are fragile
One day you will go to haven
There you will rest in peace
I will be happy for you
Because you won’t be in pain

Brown baby
God had made
With his holy hands
Many years ago
In God’s eyes
That brown baby
I s a beautiful baby
I am not crazy
For a brown baby
And God had baptized
This brown baby
With his holy water
And God had welcome
The black baby to
His family
And he became
A member
Also God feed
The brown baby
Some baby food

We gave money to God
So, he could build bridges over the water
That will connect us to different parts of the world
It takes months for God to build bridges
But once God finishes building it
We will be able to travel all over the world
By car or trucks
Transporting our goods all over the world
It will be a long golden iron bridge
There will still be pollution on the air
And on the ocean
I don't know if we can save the wild life
Because we are killing it
And it is so sad to know that it is dying
The fishermen fish for fish
And they are losing lots of money
Because of some dead fish
They say that the world is coming to an end
One day the ocean will dry up
And the wild life will die
Because they can't live without water
The fisherman's job is to feed the people on earth
That needs food
God is busy with the people in heaven now

Burn man
How lucky you are to be
Alive
Burn man
You were lucky that
You didn't burn your
Face
You were in too much
Pain to think about
Anything else
The shock was big to you
Burn man
Somebody was there
Protecting you
Burn man
Those long days
And hours in the hospital
Weren't fun
Burn man
Fire is no fool's game
Burn man
You have to be more careful
Next time
How many people get
A second chance
To live again?
Burn man
You were brave at
This horrible moment
Burn man
The drive in the
Ambulance must
Have been
A bad one
Burn man
The nurses and doctors
Took good care of you
When you needed them
Burn man
The sun kept you
Spirits up
Burn man
You did all you had to do
To get well
And get back
On your feet again

The girl that I know that is always talking is quiet today
I noticed it this morning
Today she is bursting in to tears
I will be nice and leave her alone
She sounds upset about something
It is the weather I believe
It does strange things to people
Sometimes it make people tired
Sometimes it makes people cold
Sometimes it makes people hot
The weather influences people's lives

Bury me
In you thoughts
People because
I can’t force you to be
My friend
Also there is nothing
That I have that you like
It is ok if you despise me
I know that is a terrible thing to do
Because that is a sin
That you despise me
People I was born a Christian
And you talk badly about Christians
You also curse at then
That is a terrible thing to do
People I was a Christian
And I will die a Christian
When my father puts an end to my life
I am not in a hurry to die
First I have to live my life to the
Fullest here on earth
People I will only live once
Because that is the way my father
Made life
Also I have lots of respect for
My father
It was my father that had made me
With his holy hands people
And  I am my Father’s son
We have a good relationship
Like father and son
Also you people tell me
That I am not ok in my mind
To love my father
But people I am happy living
Here on earth
That is my home that my father
Had made for me to live
Just temporally
Until the day I die
My father owns my life
And also my life is in his hands
