You Are Everything

you are everything the sun, the sky, the stars above
you have given me an eternal love.

because of you i have been able to see
all the things in life that can be.
you've shown me that true love starts from the heart
and spreads throughout your soul
it is a wonder to behold.

i love you now more than words can say
and in my heart forever you will stay.

you are everything that a person could want.
and i thank the lord up above
for this precious love.

and when i go to bed at night
a vision of you will be in plain sight.
(and to me thats perfectly alright)

Egypt

(9/15/12)

Stories have been written, movies have been shown
Of this land of mystery the world has known.
"Egypt"
History and bibles tell of the plights
Of pyramids being built for the pharaohs delight.

Stories have been told of an unknown civilization
Who showed them how to build this nation.
It is said they came from out of space
To teach technology to the human race.

Why was these structures built in the desert sands
Where it took thousands of lives
And millions of hands.

The story of aliens is a tale you see
Which was made up for you and me.

Pray

Dear lord you know that I don’t often pray
But I have so much to say.
I thank you for all that you have done for me
That you have set my heart free.

You give me a purpose in this life
And a desire to help others
Friends, family, sister, and brothers.
So continue to stand by me
And let the words run free.

For when I pray to god up above
He will shower me with all his love.
He will relieve my aches and pains
And my soul will never be the same.

Because of prayer I have achieved my goal
I can touch other souls
I can write what they see and feel
And their thoughts I do steal.

It's Only Our Shell

(10/1/12)

She was a big boned woman without an ounce of fat
But for her height and stature, she was much more than that.
She was a queen - a goddess of height and might
And for her love I would surely fight.

Her height and physique would put fear
In other women from the start
But she had the most kind and gentlest heart.

Why does height and build stop us from seeing
Ones true self.
It's only a body - it's only a shell.

The inside of that giant or dwarf
May be as big or as small as you
And going thru your same things too.

"So remember" - our bodies are just an outer shell

Macho Men

we try to be macho men who very rarely speak
but deep inside we are weak.

weak to the feelings that we have locked up inside.
feelings that we try to hide.

we have to be macho men to the female race
moving slow with a steady pace.
our egotistical pride is how we survive.

we always dream of being that
knight in shining armour
rescuing the maiden and her honor.
but that could never be, for the knights died in history.

so we strut like a peacock with pride
raise our heads to the sky.
(hiding what we feel inside)
this is the life of a macho man.

Thru His Eyes

thru his eyes i see the light
thru his eyes i feel his might
thru his eyes we feel his love
coming from the lord above
thru his eyes i can see
the life that was meant to be.
full of joy and ecstacy
i open up my heart and mind
just to see his love divine.
thru his eyes i see the world the way that it should be
the trees, the sky, the ocean blue
these were given to me and you
he shows us the love thats in our hearts.
don't let bitterness tear us apart.
when things don't seem to go your way
this is when we tend to stray.
thru his eyes i know i can
give my neighbor a helping hand.
thru his eyes everything is clear
thru his eyes i have no fear.

Raging Sea, Raging Heart

the raging seas causing the waters to rise
the raging seas engulfing you and i.
it has no mercy, it has no heart
it cares not if it tears you apart.

but you have a heart or so they say.
so why do you treat my love this way?
what do you gain to see me cry
when you tell me all those lies.
your heart is like the raging sea
it can no longer comfort me.

it has become treacherous and deep
and has left my soul to weep.
what made your calmness disappear.
is it that you had some fears?
or is it that there is something deep inside
that you feel you must hide.

if you want to destroy my love.

OBL Was Sent To Hell

As a killer who took innocent lives
He has finally paid the price.
Ten long years he hid in the middle east caves
A life that he himself had paved.

He thought that he would never be caught
And for ten years his life was sought.
Usama bin laden is finally dead
With a bullet straight through his head.

His body thrown into the sea
And that’s where he should be.
He is now food for the fish
But I don’t think they want that dish.

Now in this watery grave he will be
Through out all eternity.
No one to look upon his face or to mourn
And his life forever to be scorned.

Marriage

marriage is a bond that a man and woman share
it is a commitment far beyond compare.

they both make a vow of everlasting love
made in front of the lord above.

they commit their hearts, body, and soul to each other.
in hopes that there will never be another.

they speak of the feelings that they have inside
a love that will last throughout all time.
their love is pure in heart and soul
it is a love that they must hold.

the first five years are always the toughest
while they get to know what each other is like
and in anger they will fight.
and say things that they don't mean.

but! in the long run you must see

Happy Dreams

I awoke to my world of happy dreams.
My dreams of finding a love divine
A dream that consisted of you and I.

In all my dreams you was there
Showing me the depth of your love
And that you cared.

I could see every feature of your face
And feel the warmth of your embrace.

My heart and soul became like a comet
Shooting through the skies
Leaving a blazing trail
Of our hearts entwined.

My love for you is like flaming hot coals
It is something that you can not hold
Like a blue diamond pulled from deep
Within the earth, the one that
