Heart

There’s a place in my heart which is empty inside
A place in my heart where I try to hide
To hide from the pains that hurt me so
And I turn, but nowhere to go.

So I hide like the child deep inside
Who is afraid to take the step of a journey.
That may lead to better things in life
But refuses to make a sacrifice.

But the heart has a mechanism
which automatically protects
You from things that you fear
And takes you on a journey
To wipe away the tears.

Don’t ever hide from what
The heart may bring, because
Deep inside of us there s a voice that sings.

Who Is To Say

who is to say if our love lives or our love dies
it is not up to you or i.
who is to say what a heart truely feels-is it fake or is it real?
when youfeel like your insides are being torn apart
and you try to hold your heart.
when you think that this life has passed you by
and your heart wants to cry.
when you think that nothing else could go wrong
and your heart feels big and strong
this is when you will know-there is no other place to go.
your heart will then start to break
with heartache there is no mistake.
will it live or will it die?
who is to say!

Faith, Hope, Love****************1979

the LORD said that he has given us three things
FAITH, HOPE, LOVE
with LOVE being the strongest of the three
he gave these strengths to you and me

with FAITH- you could move mountains
with HOPE- you never despair
with LOVE- you conquer all things
that takes away your cares.

if mankind could hold each others hand
with love in their hearts
there would never be a weak link
that could break this chain in two.
because of the love we have, is made for me and you.

so open up your mind, and let the light fill up your heart
for the beginning of a brand new start.

No One Greater

the greatest love this world has known
is the love that GOD has shown.
HE gave up his only begotten son
to try to make this world as one.

but this world has always been full of greed
long before he planted his seed.
HE let the world know that CHRIST is the savior
and that there is no one greater.

but this world will never learn
that to CHRIST they must turn.
his son is our only salvation
it is shown in the revelations.

turn to CHRIST and you will see
a life that's happy and carefree.
all the miracles that he created
turned lives around that was devastated.

Lightning Strikes

looking at the sky, it; s getting dark
as far as the eyes could see
it looks like a storm brewing
and i can't hide under a tree.

i'm hearing the rolling thunder
and i'm wondering where it can be?
they say the sound of thunder can travel
twenty miles or more.
stay away from rivers
and further from the shore.

all it takes is one strike
which they say you never hear
for that is the one
your body it will tear.

we have to seek shelter
and play hide and seek
for lightning has no conscience

i am ' LIFE SERIES #3

'i am ' heaven
' i am' life at its birth
'i am ' a soft gentle kiss
placed upon your lips.

'i am' your desire
burning with a passionate fire.
' i am ' the arms that hold you tight
each and every passing night.
' i am ' the beauty in your eye
' i am ' the one that sees the sky.

' i am ' all that you see and hear
' i am ' all that you fear.
'i am ' running rivers and ocean tides
' i am ' the blue in the sky.

' i am ' the animals that you eat
' i am ' the springs that wash your feet
' i am' the trees

(Women) The Other Side Of Laughter

w. m. d. ”s does not mean weapons of mass destruction
But! Women! Men s destruction.
They attract you with their looks and charms
And bodies that will put you in “ self destruct”.
But to them that’s not enough.

They want to control your mind from
Now till the end of time.
Like a hamster in a play pen
With a beginning but no end.

You climb on that “spinning wheel of life”
And run like hell
While they watch and laugh
And ring that bell.

They are truly men s destruction!
And I think that’s the way it will always be.

(Ha-ha enjoy it women of the world)

River Of Dreams************6/17/06

6/17/06

As they paddled down the river of dreams
And of plans and schemes
Seeking the little white dove
Who is of peace and love.
They searched high and they searched low
They searched until the moon began to glow.

They traveled by the moonlit night
Seeking that bird in its flight
Upon arriving on the beaches shores
Their search ended forever more.

The bird of love was in plain sight
Because they had not given up the fight.
The love came upon them as the
Stars upon the sea
Whispering ever so sweetly.

Love Story - 1978

she pleaded and begged him to stay
but he turned and walked away
not really caring about what she felt
he wanted to travel and find himself.

he travelled throughout all the southwest
finding odd jobs and doing his best.
women he found plenty of
but never one that he could love.

finally realizing that the girl he had left
was the one that suited him best.
he packed his clothes and got into his car.
'but ' he did'nt have to travel very far.

for she was only a mile away
she had followed him every day.

and as their eyes met, they both knew
that at last his search was through.

Hip Hop Your Rap

You think hip hop is a bad ass sound
Well, I’m going to take it to the ground.
You’ve heard the latest and you’ve heard the rest.
Now you’re going to listen to the best.
There is a side of hip hop that you don’t know
And I’m here to put on the show.

They say Eminem is the first white
To break the barrier of the black delight.

He came in with his words so fine
That it has carried on down the line.
Now that rap is not controlled
It will reach every ones soul.

They say rap is the way to go
You can do it fast or you can do it slow.
You’ve just got to get in the know.
