True leaders passed.
True leaders hidden.
True leaders aren't wanted.
True leaders, oh true leaders.

Everyone wants to be the leader,
But after becoming one, are no use.
Everyone complains.
Everyone complains!

Be a selfless soul,
Think of others, for many
For wholes and halves of human race.
Regardless of age and importance

In the end, you wish, i wish, we wish,
For a leader, to humbly hold a troubled hand.
No, no need to play the blame game.
Now where is our leader?

Love isn't a word,
Love is power.
Love is pain.
Love is hate.
Love is my strength and my weakness.
Through it I shall rise,
And only through it I shall fall

Have you all heard?
Jingle bells are ringing.
Haven't you all seen?
All the fairy light twinkling.

It's the time of the year
Christmas is near

3 days left for Christmas!
All are getting ready;
Elves approving presents,
Santa checking his list twice,
Reindeers ready for flight.
N' Rudolph always ready to light foggy nights!  

Have you all heard?
Christmas carols outside.
Haven't you all seen?
Christmas trees decorating.

It's the time of the year
CHRISTMAS. IS. NEAR!!

“T'was the night before Christmas ...”
and Santa was busy.
The reindeer were antsy
the elves in a tizzy.

The missus was tending
the ovens like mad
And turning out cookies
to make children glad.

The wood chips were flying
the sawdust was thick
The workshop was bulging
with toys from St. Nick.

Contractors from Sega,
Nintendo and Sony
Were working on games
(and a robotic pony).

Iphones and Ipads
(with virus removal)
Were packed in their boxes
and stamped "Elf Approval".

Last minute touches
were added with flair
While elf stylists tended
to Santa's white hair.

Elf tailors were making
some last alterations
To Santa's red coat
and his waist tribulations.

The weather was fair
as the weather-elf stated
The routes were approved
and departure was slated.

Bells had been polished
and harnesses buffed
While repairs were addressed
for the hoofs that were scuffed.

The antlers were festooned
with ribbons and bells
And the reindeer were covered
with elf flying spells.

The clock approached
midnight as Santa was seated.
The countdown began
as the flight crew was greeted.

H-hour neared
and the tension was growing.
Outside it grew cloudy
and then, began snowing.

But Santa just grinned
as the weather-elf winced.
"Don't worry, my friend.  
Our time has commenced."

For the weather was nothing
to Santa's conveyance.
His reindeer and sleigh
were immune to"delay-ance".

With a whirl of his whiskers
and a flick of his wrist
The reindeer were launched
in a flash of white mist.

And I heard him exclaim
through his teleport ray:
"ALERT TSA. Tell 'em
I'm on my WAY!"

My body my soul faded into
What everyone wanted me to be
Life got hard I became distracted
So I forgot about me...

I faded into the background
Left dusty and forgotten
Erased memories and time
Nothing remained
but this vessel who liked to rhyme

Slowly and surely
A metamorphosis begun
I laid out all my fears and
took them on one by one

I bereaved that lost part of me
Waves washed away the doubt to sea
Tore down the jaded gates
Knocked down the shackled walls

I emerged from my cocoon
This reinvigorated butterfly
~
No more walls need built
In this new becoming of I

falling in love is scary
but wondering if you're falling out..
is terrifying.
