Think about it
There are things worth living for
There are things worth dying for
There are things worth working for
There are things worth waiting for
There are things worth searching for
There are things worth suffering for
There are many things I've seen
Now which of these things are you?
You think this is a question
But do not answer yet
Think about the other people
All those people you've met
To some you may be all these things
To others, maybe none
Then those to who there is no difference
And those who to them, you're the
one
Now that youve thought a bit
Youve wondered, maybe with doubt
You could also be thinking
What is he talking about?
But if you've thought about it
And if you've thought this through
Think, to someone else
Which one of these are you?
This is a new National Anthem
I was requested to make.
We stand under the starry sky
Staring at the moon filled night
Thinking of all the freedoms we share
Us being all shades of black and white
We fought hard for all these freedoms
We fought hard to reach this place
We wont give up without a fight
Our pride glows upon our face
Red, white and blue, our colors
They stand for the life of the free
Nothing is impossible
We, as one, will always be
A blend of life and culture
A diverse ethnic wave
We work together in America
Home of the free and brave.
A Selfless Wish
I wish for you a happy life
This is where I'll start
I hope forever never comes
For in soul, we'll never part
I pray you have a gentle mind
Never angered, never harsh
In the end, I hope you'll find
Someone worth your abounding love
Where you'll be, I do not know
But still, you'll always stay
Within my heart and on my mind
Continuing from day to day
I wish for you the best
For you, I'll always miss
So heed my heartfelt plea
And take to heart my selfless
wish
~To the one who will never leave my
heart or mind.
True Friend
I wander along the sandy shore
Looking for something to hold
You crossed my sight that day I see
You crossed my sight so bold
I lift my head to see you
My mouth opens to voice
You gently close it, silently
I have no other choice
You reach right out and grasp my arm
You help me along the sandy shore
I see your face, it's gentle glow
Your voice, a sea wave's roar
You say "Everything is fine
That I will be all right
For when you need me the most
I won't be far from sight
Just then you vanished out of view
Knowing that there would be no end
For when I needed you the most
There you would be, my one true friend.
Stargazing
I lie upon my back
I stare up at the sky
You gaze up, beside me
Watching time roll by
We pass every moment
Together, naught a sound
Embracing eachother warmly
With not a soul around
We look not at eachother
We just gaze into air
Our minds surrounded by the stars
For they are everywhere
I think about the times I've gazed
At the stars and on your face
My heart, at this very moment
Would, for nothing, leave this place
I gaze further through the heavens
God's face gazes down on me
I pray silently, in thanks
For all he's let me see
I then turn, and you towards me
We share a warm embrace
My mind then drifts so gently
And sleeps upon your face.
Getting Out
There is this empty space inside of me
The space grows larger by the day
I
can't get out, I must get out
I can't seem to find the way
The walls run far, they don't close in
I can't escape,
I can not run
How did I get stuck in here
What on earth have I done
I run endless mile just to find
Nothing here,
nothing there
All alone I fight the darkness
The emptiness leaves me no care
I look left and right, but what
I
still see nothing there
I look down, then up, and AH!
A light comes
through a tear
I will gaze upon this light
One day I will reach it and
be free
But now I'm stuck here, frozen
In this empty space in me.
Ocean of Love
What can I do with this ocean of love
The ocean that poured down straight
from above
It swells up inside, bursting over its walls
I can not keep it, for one name it calls
Will you accept,
I can not say
For you, this love, I would give away
Your heart, it is so full of fire
Your love is my heart's one
desire
Your beauty, I find to be quite unique
Your face, your eyes, this is what I seek
Your mind, such life, hits
straight to my core
Your movements, you sylph, I watch and adore
Your hands, so soft, they never grow cold
Your form,
so pure, I desire to hold
For you, it would seem, have been sent from above
For you, all I have, is my ocean of love
Relaxation
Calmly flowing waters
Smell the salty air
Floating on the ocean waves
Imagine
you're not there
Waves break along the sandy shore
See the shine rise in the sand
Fly above the great white clouds
Stay
with me and hold my hand
Escape your mind, follow mine
Relax your senses, let them flow
Relieve yourself of all the
pressure
Take your heart and let it go
Feel the pressure lifted
The light shines on the shore
You hear the waves
crashing again
The hot sun burns once more
The waves break upon the beach
Consciousness
returns to you
Now isn't it amazing what
A little relaxation can do
~Katie, this one's for you.
One Chance
Why is it that I stay here
As you drift away from me
Mental breakdown
from the stress
Of my feelings, you will see
How shall I say those words to you
They mean nothing when they're said
But
yet I feel I need to mention
How I feel, to stay ahead
Seeing you will make my day for
In my mind you're perfect,
whole
In your mind I'm just another
Person who could play the role
Of a friend who lives of self
Who's only there
for company
Without a care for how you feel
Without a helping hand to give
Selfish and self satisfying
But selfless,
this is how I live
Give one chance, that's all I need
To show you how your view is wrong
I think of you more than
myself
Oh, I've thought of you all along
Just one chance is all I ask
From you, there's nothing I can hide
When
I hold you higher than
Myself in such a world of pride
