You must always push
the limits.
Because if you
never fail,
your will never
succeed.

NATURE'S TRANQULITY

I see the sun rise above the water,
I see the mist, I see the dew,
I see colors of every hue.

The feeling of calm fills my soul,
A bird calls to its mate,
A sound of love, never hate.

A kind of peace, a warm release.
A new beggining, nature winning.
Carrying my heart off to soar.

A new day has risen,
to make amends,
to carry on a ritual,
that never ends.

ANGER

Here I sit, in this guilded cage,
my eyes are angry,filled with rage
Angry, lonely, sobbing crying,
I think of you,
my tears start drying.

The power you had,
is so long gone
even though what I feel
Is still so strong

Hate you, love you,
you made me want you,
I still held on,
when I should have forgot you

Now its over, forever amen
til you show your face again,
Still I love you, hate you,
need you, want you,
knowing that I should have forgot you

SAYING GOODBYE

The room is filled with somber faces
no one knowing what to say,
What started out so long ago,
Is coming to an end today.

In my heart, through the coming years
I know you'll soothe my endless fears
Silently, you'll add your blessing,
Your my salve, my balm, my dressing.

I listened to you tell your tales,
Hanging on every word you say,
Seeing the smile we brought to your face
How will I ever get through this day?

Now its been five long years,
So much hurt, so many tears,
I love you Grandpa, more today,
than I did, when you went away.

CONFUSION

I can't see the reason
in what it is your saying,
I can't play the games,
that you want to keep playing,

One minute your happy,
the next, your so down
I can't keep doing this,
On uneven ground.

There's nothing to go on,
no goal to achieve,
but I can't go,
No I just can't leave.

Please don't make me decide,
there's no more answers,
its all been tried,
I don't wanna leave you,
No, I don't want to go
Just tell me the things, that I have to know

Tell me you love me,
In the heat of the night,
Kiss me and hold me,
Make everything right.
