Someday you’ll fly
Why do we try to feel alright?
Why do we try to fake a smile?
When nothing seems right
and all is not fine,
Why do we try to make it right?
When your body is aching and
eyes are weeping,
When your footsteps falter
and you can’t breathe.
When your sorrow is so deep
that no one understands,
When solitude becomes a friend;
the only thing you can stand.
Someday’s are gloomy,
they just don’t work,
When you see dark even
when there are thousands of bulbs.
When life starts to drown
from every corner of your soul,
When scars are so fresh they feel bitter and sour.
I know life is not easy,
its not always fun,
But somethings I know for sure and
I know them firm.
I know that there is a sun,
smiling right behind the clouds,
I know the dawn is waiting
to break through the dark.
Just when you’re about to give up,
Just when you want to fall down,
Know that there is enough
strength in you,
to keep soaring above the ground.
I know the light will shine through,
I know the shackles will break.
Someday you’ll fly away,
And everyone will stare.

I LOVE YOU
I love the way you make me laugh
I love the way you make me cry
Tears of joy stream from my eyes
As I hear your voice, a loving surprise.
I love you when you’re angry
I love you when you’re sad
I love you when you’re glad
When you tell me of the day you had
I love you truly
I love you deeply
Ever since the day
I let you meet me
I missed you when you left
I miss you now more than ever
Making a mistake that I regret
Hoping that you are a forgiver
Without you, my life is strife
But now I ask for a second chance
Be with me and start a life
Together forever,
I wait for you as the days go by
My love is growing inch by inch….

MY INNER VOICE
People are often unreasonable
and self centered
Forgive them any way
If you are kind,
people may accuse you
of ulterior motives
Be kind any way
If you are honest,
people may cheat you
Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness,
people may be jealous
Be happy anyway.
The good you to day
may be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway
Give the word the best you have
and it may never be enough
Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end,
it is between you and God.
