Love Never End  So, I now know what I felt not real How could I be so mistaken? And illusions for once did feel And my heart so falsely taken.  But why do you still live in my dreams? When your true feelings shown Love is seldom what it seems So, I must return to being alone.  But when I sleep you are still there What I can shake in the day not last For in the Night my feelings laid bare That from my waking world been cast. So, love not something rejection takes away Or wha...

The Promise In a few days, our nation will let the world hear our voice And it will be loud, and it will be clear To learn we only had one choice To choose hope over fear. It may have looked like we were divided And that our democracy was in danger But in a few days, we will show we are still united Who bet on our experiment laid the best wager. The people are the ones who understood it best Not our institutions or those leaders untrue They are the reason we will pass this test ...

She Walks in Sunshine  She walks where sunshine must bow And from her radiance this world lives  And from her beauty all else does grow  For from her essence its purpose gives.  Where she sings the songbirds follow Where she sighs the wind exhales  So the songs her melody will borrow  And even a tempest in her wake pales. When the stars point their way she is already there Her light is what they enviously copy For in her aspect their grandeur laid bare  And the light shared wit...

I am forgetting you, even though you live in the sun’s shade And the moon’s glow, I still am letting you go And with each passing day your memories fade Soon the last leave and your love no longer know. Though I see you in my dreams you are still fleeting  For in the morning not lying in my bed So, the new day comes but not with your greeting And awake in a lonely room, instead. And through each day I see many faces but do not see you Soon I will not expect yours, in all its beauty,...

When My Love Appear No lines can express what a heart can feel Though they can try their best to do For on this page futile to convey what is real For no words can take the place of you. And poor substitutes for the love you gave They must let imagination take your place Never enough, here, for your memory to save But only its outlines can trace. I see a Rose and appreciate its beauty For I know too well, soon, it will be lost Like those times you were next to me And then lonel...

When Paradise Real  Paradise is not what I expected it to be I am still lonely with all this beauty around  For the one I love I cannot, again, see A true paradise only with you can be found.  I don’t know how long I can stay here I am only reminded of what I miss Paradise was only where you once did appear Staying here, something is still amiss. When together, it didn’t matter how harsh the weather  How dark or cold was each day We found warmth in being together  And this chas...

My True Love Bring  We think we know about life but know nothing at all In one swift moment everything can be taken away And once you thought you were whole how quickly you fall For nothing here was ever meant to stay. And what we thought was valuable worthless turns out to be And what was truly precious too soon from its loss learn  In one swift moment this truth will see And then only for redemption can yearn.  And I would trade all the world’s riches for what I lost  But the l...

e is All You Need I been beat down by society, but I refuse to give in I have been an outcast but do not care anymore Though it looks like the system will still win It will only prove that goodness abhor. Because my crime is, I do not subscribe to convention My path is my own to tread And I must follow my own direction And let my actions decide where it has led. And though not accepted, I prefer my free will The rest to some dogma or cause may believe But I will let my spirit wi...
