In The Race of life



In the race of life we all have to learn
so we watch and listen until it's our turn
and when number 18 shines on us
we grab the torch with the slightest touch
and when your race is over you pass the torch
for the next generation can go further of course.




  In The Living Years




In the living years we should take the time
To say the things that’s on our mind
But to wait until death is so routine
Because that’s easier or so it seems
But every now and again we remember a time
And have that loved one on our mind
And out of guilt we drop some tears
And wish it was said in the living years.

I Kept Thinking


A week and a day was all I knew
and I kept thinking
what was he going to do
treat me so right until I fall in love
But this is just a dream I'm thinking of
And I kept thinking; this is it
finally I can sit back and feel content
Love he gave to me each day
Until he started to fade away
And I kept thinking
though the phone calls was few
until I realized
their is nothing I could do
So I live on without tears of weeping
but for some strange reason
I kept thinking.

I Thank You

At times when I lied, you stayed true
I have to say I thank you
When I thought I couldn't make it
you pulled me through
I have to say I thank you
for the gift of words
and the knowledge to know
for the people in my life
who come and go
for me knowing my wrong
so I can make it right
and giving me the strength 
to write through the night
So many things I know I could do
and because I know I say thank you

Dreams

You reach and you reach but you just can't seem to touch
and each and everyday you want to give up
the closer you see it; the further it seems
but we have another day to reach our dreams
some call me a dreamer I say i'm blessed
because their are people
who haven't found their dreams yet.
a writer I am but name unknown
but I'll keep trying until the lord call me home
and when I die the label will be
"A Dreamer she was"
but a writer to me.
Precious Time 

We'll meet again but until then
always remember you are my friend
but I must move on
to go get mine
and not take for granted
                                precious time.




Tribute To Malice Green

You can erase the face but the message is still there
we're not blind to see you just don't care
each time you come to erase the face
it'll be right back like an athelete in a race
so carry your hatred to your grave if you dare
and when god ask :
"Why didn't you care".

The Hats



I love my hats
but they don't represent me
they give me an opportunity to be free
but also show a little personality
rather they're red, black, tall or wide
I wear my hats mainly outside
and I sort of feel good as a matter of fact
I guess that's why I wear my hats.

People Underground

I see them sleep and beg for food
trying to get help
while we treat them rude
some want help
while others don't care
but who are we to judge
now don't you dare
People underground is what they're called
depending on your city
if you care at all
if you take time to talk to a few
you'll realize they're just like me and you
so the next time you see them
don't stare with a frown
offer some help to the people underground.
