Dying to be Read 1982-1991
The Perfect Rhyme…
All My Life I’ve been searching for The Perfect Rhyme
From the sands on the shore To the stars in the sky
Through the seasons of time , The reason I’m alive
I long to find The Perfect Rhyme
I know not how it started
It just happened one day
People told Me I was crazy
They would always turn away
I would just turn the page
Writing until My fingers bled
No One Reading A Word I Said….
Crying In Words
My Poetic Determination
Leads Me into frustration
For what I write is meant to be read
Why won’t You Read Me
I’m Crying In Words
I have no voice
As the pen is My choice
I need You to listen
Yet I need not Your ears
You won’t hear Me
I’m Crying In Words
My Words have the Power
To make You feel As I’ve felt
Upon these Words I dwell
Cast without A spell
And Oh So Many Stories To Tell
Does Anyone have feelings for Me
I’m Crying In Words
I’m Crying In Words
I’m Crying In Words…..
Once A Friend
No pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
Did thunder call to You from within the storm
As I wonder how He could take His own Life
I now feel the shackles He had once worn
Betrayed by His self inflicted will
The desperate Child now dies
All alone choosing Himself to kill
All alone My best Friend Dies
All alone His best Friend Cries
Thousands Of Children
On an empty stage
Rehearsing Their Own Death
The Climax, Their Death, Their Last Breath
At such An early Age
Does Anyone know the reason
In Life’s darkest season
To return to dust
And be washed away by the rain
To forget trust, To have lived in vain
I look into the eye of the storm
I see tears in many eyes
Forever more in Their Memory kept
The Face of A Friend that They have just left
Beneath The Earth Within shadows of Eternal Rest
I now sit in Solitude
How may I answer this Question
Such A negative Attitude
In An Unknown direction
Had He no feeling for Anothers Affection
Please,Please Answer My Question
Answer My Question……..
Should You
Should You follow The stars , Should You follow The leader
As I’m The Writer , You’re My Reader
Should You walk in The rain , Don’t drown within Sorrow
Should We Smile Again , It All Ends Tomorrow
Should You see Their Dreams , Should They touch Your Heart
Should You hear Their Screams , It’s To Soon To Part
Between You And I Feelings Are Far To Deep To Compromise
Should You Laugh , Should You Cry
Should You Miss Me , Should It Be My Time To Die
Life’s not as it seems , No One seems to care
Life was just A Dream , Reality is My Nightmare
Life is A time bomb , Death The Explosion
Soon The bomb blows , No more Emotion
Going Through Life , So much aggravation
Dreaming Of Death , To Much Hesitation
Should You treat the flame with respect Instead of Desire
Should You Burn in Hell , Introduced to The Fire
When Life’s Not What It Seems
When You Couldn’t Change
When Death Is No Longer A Dream
When Death Is Pre-Arannged
Should Your Soul Be Exchanged…….
The Answer Lies
A Stairway Of Sand Will Take You Nowhere
Take Hold of My hand Should You Fall Into Despair
I Tried To Reach Out , You Offer Me Your Disgrace
Death Within Your Smile As You spit in My Face
Have You Forgotten Our Friendship
As You Put Your Life Around Your Throat
As The Noose Begins To Slip
Its The End Of The Rope
The Answer Lies , The Answer Lies
The Question Remains Forever Lost
The Answer Lies , The Answer Lies
Tell Me What To Feel When My Best Friend Dies
Now The Answer Lies Behind Forever Closed Eyes
Never To See Me Again, Nor Speak To Me
Or Be My Friend ,As I Place The Flowers At His Grave
I Remember The Face Of The Friend That I Couldn’t Save
There’s No Answer To My Question,Now Tears Fill My Eyes
I Never Even Told Him Good Bye……
Child Of The Rope
Was Your Life Not Worth The Anger You Possessed
hen You Reached Your Final Height Of Torment
Did You Have To Be So Obsessed
A Thirst For Blasphemy
Quenched Within Your Final Hour
Hungry For A Destiny
Soon To Be Devoured
Child Of The Rope , Desperate To Escape
To Much To Take , To Much , To Late
All Eyes Are One Tear
For Your Fate We Feared
Within Our Tears Rain
Memories Between The Drops
To Soon To Reach His End
My Best Friends Life Has Stopped
You Took Your Last Breath
It Wasn’t A Joke
You Introduced Yourself To Death
You Chose The Rope
Child Of The Rope , Desperate To Escape
To Much To Take , To Much , To Late
Tears I Never Thought I’d Cry
Never Thought That You Would Die
I Sometimes Wonder Why I Couldn’t Stop It
I Really Did Care , Let’s Just Drop It……..
I’m Everything , I’m Not
Its No Use , I Can’t Forget
Echoing In My Mind
Everything Nothing
A Friend I Miss
A Friend I’ll Never Forget
I Woke This Morning With No Attitude
In A Whiskey Bottle I Find Solitude
I’ve Forgotten Last Night
I Remember The Morning For Only A Moment
I No Longer Remember Your Name
Or How My Times Spent
I Wash Down My Pain With Another Shot
It’s The Only Peace I Know
I’m Everything , I’m Not…….
Alcoholic
I Can’t Resist Temptation
Existing Upon Intoxication
To The Bottle I Fall
My Obsession With Alcohol
No Where Left To Hide
Overflowing With Pride
Nothing Left Inside
Living A Lie
Whiskey In My Blood
My Heart Distilled
My Kidneys Are Mud
My Liver To Be Killed
My Dreams Deceased
Inebriated Thoughts
My Mind Diseased
No Lessons Been Taught
I Refuse To Stop
I Refuse To Quit
I’m Everything , I’m Not
For This Is My Writ……..
Chapter Two
She’s Not There
Wandering Aimlessly Through A Life Of Silence
All Alone With A Torn Up Conscience
It’s No One He’s Searching For
There Must Be Somebody Out There
To Take His Hand And Show Him The Way
Out Of The Shadows Where He Hides His Pain
Through Her Veil Of Darkness
They Share A Stare
He Tries To Touch Her
She’s Not Really There…..
Lonely
I’ve Often Wondered What It’s Like
To Be More Than Just Friends
Have I Met The Girl At Long Last
Will She Make A Man Of Me
Or Have I Again Thought To Fast
Will Love Again Pass Me Bye
Or Should I Be Calm
As She Looks Into My Heart
Sweat In My Palms
Trying To Be Kind I’m Defeating My Purpose
With Her On My Mind It’s Making Me Nervous
I’ve Tried And I’ve Cried
It’s Just To Hard To Pretend
Lonely Is Still The Name
In Shame My Loves Sent
Soon To Be Forgotten
Lonely One Hundred Per Cent…….
My Only Friend , My Pen
The Only Friend I Have Is My Pen
It’s A Lonely World On The Page Again
I Stay Up All Night
Writing Words For No One To Read
I Don’t Care What Anyone Thinks
It’s What I Long To Be
I’ll Write Better Than Anyone Else
I’ll Show You , You’ll See….
Just Read……
My Restless Rhymes
Another Night , Another Song
As For Me , There’s Something Wrong
Question Without Answer
My Pen Bleeds Upon The Page
The Drummer , The Dancer
On Stage Share Their Rage
Inflicted With Rhyme
Lost In My Songs
Searching For Time
I’ve Waited To Long
I’m Still Searching For The Perfect Rhyme
Somewhere Within My Dreams
A Rhyme I May Never Find
So Far Away It Seems
I Practice Rhyme All The Time
My Sinful Rhymes- Confessed
A Lonely Rhyme- Depressed
The Naked Rhyme- Undressed
An Immature Rhyme- Put To The Test
My Restless Rhymes
To Much To Digest
I’ll Never Stop Writing
Until The Day I Pass Away
Rhyme Shall Never Rest
As Long As I Have Something To Say……
Girl
A Smile , A Girl
Feelings I’m Being Shown
She Throws A kiss At Me
My Hearts Taken Away
I Can’t Believe It
She’s Looking My Way
I Tell Her Of My Feelings
She Speaks Of Hers
Our First Kiss
A Thousand Words
A Million Rhymes
I’m Gonna Be Hers
She’s Gonna Be Mine
All My Sorrow Turns Around
I Have To Tell The World
Of This Love I’ve Found
So I Write Down In Words
My Feelings For Her…..
She’s Happening To Me
My Heart Was Deserted
The Day We Met
The Arrow Inserted
I’ll Never Forget
Your Touch Is My Treat
Your Love I Could Be
Until Next We Meet
I’ll Sweep You Off Your Feet
Sweeter Than Honey
She Holds My Hand
Worth More Than Money
She Knows Where She Stands
I Can’t Believe
It’s Almost A Dream
I Can’t Believe
She’s Happening To Me
I’m At The Point
Where My Heart Gives In
It Reminds Me
Of A Love I Must Win
If She Should Frown
You Know It brings Me Down
Aquarian Angel
For Your Love – I’d Drown
As The Ocean
Deep Are My Emotions
As The Flower
My Love For Her Grows
I Can’t Believe
As If In A Dream
I Can’t Believe
She’s Happening To Me
Within My Arms
Within My Heart
Like A Painting
You’re A Work Of Art
I Feel Her Touch
Easing Me On
I Do Believe
She’s Happening To Me
She’s Unlocked My Heart
She’s Within My Soul
Never Part
For Love Will Always Grow
I’d Never Leave You
So Don’t Ever Go……..
She
She convinces Me It’s not A dream
She Loves Me as much as I Love Her
Does She really know how much She means to Me
Does She Love Me as much as I Love Her
Does She Understand Me
Does She Understand
Does She
She………
Understand
Precious is the Love I’ve been shown
Our destiny lies ahead
Remaining Unknown
She’s taught Me how to Love
Almost As If In A Dream
Feeling Love For in Love I’ve never been
Her Arrow in My heart will always be
If She chooses to stay with only Me
Morning comes to often
I’ve got to leave to soon
But I’ll be back to Love Her
When the Night Sky
Holds A New Moon
She’s the Only Flower
In My Garden of Love
A Precious Petal is shed for Me
I’m Her Sunshine from above
She’s Within My Soul
She Holds My Heart In Her Hands
I’ll Always Be Here For Her To Hold
I Hope She Understands…….
I Don’t Understand
The space between Us is growing
Why won’t You tell Me where You’re going
You’ve introduced Me to the feelings of Love
Now You want to throw me away
I Don’t Understand
Lost In My Confusion
I Still Feel Love
I Long For Your Touch
Did I Ask To Much
I Don’t Understand….
Are We Still In Love……
So Far Away
My Acquaintance Anguish
Come Back To Me
As I Bathe In My Tears
Intrude Upon My Misery
I’ve Lived, For I’ve Loved
Lonesome is No Good
Do You Feel As I Feel
As I Need Your Love
(Chorus) So Far Away
My Emotions Unchained
So Far Away
Don’t Tell Me My Loves In Vain
So Far Away
You’ll Never Put Out My Flame
It’s Been Lonely Days
Since We’ve Been Apart
My Only Wish
To Hold On To Your Heart
I’m Breaking Down
The Distance Between Us
I’m Seeing Visions I’ve Never Seen
I See Your Face Encircled In Clouds
I Just Wish I Could See You Now
(Repeat Chorus)
You’re More Than A Thought
An Endless Desire
A Perfect Match
You Lit My Fire
Such Empty Feelings
Of My Pain There’s No Measure
Your Absence Leaves Me In Ruin
Forever Lost Is My Treasure
I’m Infinitely Undone
Reflecting Upon Memories
No More Love
She’s Gone
(Repeat Chorus)+
So Far Away
My Emotions Remain
So Far Away
Don’t Tell Me My Loves In Vain
So Far Away
My Love For You Will Always Remain
So Far Away
You’ll Never Put Out My Flame………
The Flame Burns Dim
Please tell Me how to forget
The Love She taught Me of
The Months And Years
When She was here
Have changed My Life
My Words are not Enough
To change Her mind
When She’s gone
I hope it’s Love She finds
The candle still burns deep within My heart
The Flame Burns Dim
As for Her feelings for Me
Perhaps given to Him
Her Face , Her Name
My Pain , My Shame
Our Picture in A frame
You’ll Never Put Out My Flame…….
Picture Of You
Tears Fill My Eyes
As Your Memory Dwells Within My Mind
A Thought I’ve Misplaced
No Sign Of Your Face
You Reminded Me Our Love Had No Future
I’m Blind , Yet I See I’m No Longer In The Picture
Are You Afraid Of Love , Are You Afraid Of Me
Am I Afraid Of The Face In the Picture I See
A Transparent Personality
Did You See Right Through Me
You’ve Shattered My Affections
You Broke My Heart
Imagine All We Could Have Been
Picture Of Pity
Painted In Pain
Resemblance Of Our Image
Captured In A Frame……..
She’s Gone
A Lovebird That Flies Away
Is The One That Never Longed To Stay
Love Is The Flower That Withered Away
As She Was The Love That Left Me Today
Lightning Held The Power
Of Our Love Now Devoured
As The Candle Holds The Light
My Flame’s Put Out This Night
As My Feelings Fade Away
I’m Still Confused
Why Wouldn’t You Stay
You Know It’s Me You’ll Never Replace
And All The Memories I Can’t Erase
You Say You Don’t Hate Me
You Say You Won’t Date Me
Please Tell Me Why
You Had To Forsake Me
She’s Gone , She’s Gone
To Sing Someone Else’s Song
My Songbird Flew Away
My Nest Is Now Empty
Thank You
For The Love You Once Lent Me…….
I Was
Don’t You Want Me
KEEP ME
How Did Love Lead To Misery
WANT ME
Your Love Is My Hunger
FEED ME
I Still Want You , Your Obsenity
RAPE ME
We No Longer Live In Each Others Fantasies
HURT ME
I Was Your Lover , I Was Your Need
NEED ME
Remember Our Pleasure Together
FEEL ME
Why Won’t You See
SEE ME
Lost And Alone , I Call Your Name
HEAR ME
My Heart Turns To Stone , My Love’s In Vain
BREAK ME
From My Life You Disappear
LEAVE ME
I STILL WANT YOU ,
YOU WANT ME GONE
I STILL WANT YOU
SO I WROTE THIS SONG
I WAS YOUR LOVER
I WAS YOUR
I WAS…………
Chapter Three
My Disease
Alcoholic Part Two
An Endless Hangover
This Morbid Condition
Over Indulgence
But It’s My Decision
A Lifetime I’ve Missed
Put Me On The Critical List
It’s My Life I’ve Ruined
Perhaps I Started To Soon
A Bottle , A Habit
I’ve Just Got To Have It
I Need More Poison
To Feel My Adrenalin Flow
Stripped Of Passion
This Endless Woe
I Often Ask The Question
Is The Bottle My Foe
Into The Asylum
My Life’s Insane
Back On The Street
I’m Drunk Again
As I’ve Said
The Alcohol Commands
Was The Problem In My Head
Or Was It In My Hand
I Can’t Fall Asleep
Unless I Pass Out
I’ll Have Another Drink
Without A Doubt
Why Can’t I Wake Up
Please Don’t Shout
I’m Back In The Asylum
Let Me Out , Let Me Out
Alcoholic , Am I An Alcoholic
I Need Another Drink
I Need Another Shot
No Need To Think
No Need To Stop
It’s The Only Peace I Know
I’m Everything , I’m Not…….
Please , Just One More……
.
D U I
Alcohol Plays A Role
In This Person , Myself
I No Longer Know
The Keys , The Car
Another Beer Before I Leave The Bar
I Barely Get The Key Into The Ignition
It’s Easier To Drive In This Condition
I Stop At The Liquor Store
I Need Some More
Forgetting What Happened
A Few Nights Before
I’m Out Of Jail
It’s Only A D.U.I
Another Court Date In The Mail
Another Beer For The Ride
Red Lights , Green Lights
Yellow Ones Too
Within My Rear View Mirror
The Lights Are Blue……
Have Another
Will You Face Up To Your Ignorance
Or Are You Lost Within Your Innocence
As You Look Behind You
Does It Make Any Sense
Now You Stare At The Judge
Without Defense
So As You’ve Lost Your Sanity
You Find It’s Such A Cost
When It’s A Reality
Once Again , It’s No Big Deal
You’ll Get Behind The Wheel
Of Your Lawless Car , Tires Squealing
As You’re Leaving The Bar
The Reaper Behind The Wheel
Perhaps Another Life To Steal
Have Another Beer , Crank Up The Metal
No Need For The Law
Abuse That Gas Pedal
Have Another Beer
Forget The Speed Limit
Have Another Shot
Forget Your Own Limit
Drunk On The Street
Drunk As You Drive
The Fate You May Meet
Your Own Suicide
Or Worse Yet
The Death Of The Innocent
With Whom You Collide……..
Click , Click……….
I’m Wearing My Steel Bracelets
I’m Thrown On A Cold Cement Floor
Kicked In The Face
As They Slam The Big Steel Door
I Wake Up In A Jail Cell
No Where To Hide , No Where To Run
There’s No Story To Tell
I Can’t Remember What I’ve Done
Lost In A Secret Sentence
Of My Own Repentance
I’m Marched Into The Courtroom
Without An Excuse , Without A Lawyer
I’m Still Confused As To How I Got Here
Now The Judge Lets Me Know
Of My Every Mistake
He Tells Me This Time
I Won’t Get A Break
Did I Really Hit A Cop
Did I Really Hit A Truck
I Ask Him For My Car
He Tells Me Good Luck
The Judge Announces My Bail
Then Slams Down The Gavel
I’m Back Off To Jail
No Money , No Travel
Now I’m Out On Bail
I’ve Got My New Court Date
They Tell Me You Better Get A Lawyer Boy
You’re Gonna Pay Dearly For Your Mistakes……
State Your Case
I’m The Defense For Your Offense
Why You Did It , Makes No Sense
Established By So Called Authority
These Rules And Regulations
Jurisdiction Frowns Upon Me
Misdemeanors And Felonies
My Lawyer Says To Plead Guilty
And Start My Search For Sanity
State Your Case
Crime Cannot Be Erased
All The Laws You’ve Defaced
And No One Can Take Your Place
I’ll Take Your Case
However You’ll Pay For My Mind
I’m Here To Protect You
But You May Do Some Time
I’m Now On The Stand
I Feel I’ll Fail
So Many Questions At Hand
A Few More Words From My Lawyer
Keeps My Dumb Ass Out Of Jail
The Judge Weighs The Evidence
And Ponders His Decision
Drops A Few Of The Charges
And Offers Me Supervision
State Your Case
Crime Cannot Be Erased
All The Laws You’ve Defaced
And No One Can Take Your Place
I’m Just A Lawyer
I Don’t Write The Laws
But , When You Get In Trouble
Give Me A Call……..
Exodus 34 Verse 7
Preserving Loving Kindness For Thousands
Pardoning Error And Transgression And Sin
But By No Means Will He Give Exemption
From Punishment
Bringing Punishment For The Errors Of
Fathers Upon Sons And Upon Grandsons
Upon The Third Generation
And Upon The Forth Generation
The Family Heir Loom
The Family Heir Loom Is Within My Great Grandfathers Hand
He Hands It Down To His Son
And He Does The Same
Generation After Generation
Is It For Me To Abstain
The Son Of That Son
Who I Call My Father
Doesn’t Even Care
So I’m Not A Bother
He Doesn’t Know Me
Does He Know Himself
I Learn As He Shows Me
How He Ruins His Health
A Reflection Of My Parents
At The Bottom Of My Bottle
I Need No Consent
Inconsiderate Of The Consequence
I Know It All
At Least That’s My Opinion
A Love Affair With Alcohol
I Drink , Its My Obsession
In Addition To Addiction
My Inherited Intoxication
Enhances My Decisions
To Confront Life’s Frustrations
The Manner In Which I Display
My Character Is A Re-Run
Like Father Like Son
Like Father Like Son
Parental Discretion
Won’t Cure My Infection
They Offer Me Poor Advice
And Help Me Fail
My Ancestors Watch
As I Trace Their Trail………
Heredity
It Was Water Under The Bridge
It Was’nt Long Ago
Now It’s A Kettle Above The Fire
As It’s Boiling Over , Overflow
Like My Father
And His Father Before Him
I’ve Fallen Prey
To The Bottle Of My Kin
I Look In The Mirror
A Reflection Of Them
A Face Full Of Fear
Am I Condemned
Heredity
A Transmission Of Traits
Heredity
A Formation Of Fate
To Relive The Past
As I Live Today
In This Role I’ve Been Cast
My Life Is A Play
I Follow The Footsteps
Upon an Unfortunate Path
For All To see
Heredity – My Wrath……….
Insanity
Now My Consumption Is Out Of Control
I’m Back In The Mental Institution
Tell Me Who’s To Blame
For The Order Of My Conscience
This Monster I’ve Become
Am I Truly Insane
My Manifest Is Clouded
The Bottle Keeps Urging Me On
It Helps Me To Forget
The Memories I Dwell Upon
Drunk And Disorderly
An Ill Fate Within My Eyes
I Forfeit My Sanity
No Compromise
Taken Into Custody , To Be Legalized
For This My Calamity , I’m Penalized
No Institution Could Have A Solution
I Cancel The Cure , Just To Be Sure
My Mind Needs No Restitution
I Pour Another Drink For My Overture
I’ve Entered The computer Age
In A Toxic Wasteland
As I Press The Keys
With Trembling Hands
Society Wants To Repress Me
Suspend Me From Myself
To Handicap My Habits
To Help Me With My Mental Health
Sentenced To Sanction
Speaking In Key
To A Municipal Machine
I Punch In My Plea
Not Guilty – Void Me Please
NEGATIVE – Read The Decree
BRING YOUR DISC TOMORROW
THINK OVER YOUR PLEA
Sleep Comes Quickly Within My Cell
I’ve Been Up For Three Days Drinking
As I’m Standing Upon The Brink
Of Which I Almost Fell
Infected Insides From My Problematic Pastime
It’s My Disease , Its My Life
If It Takes Me To My Grave
It’s My Choice
Can I Ever Stop , Will I Ever Quit
Will It Take Me To My Grave
Could This Really Be My Writ……….

The Defenseless Computer Lies Inebriated
I Press Buttons There’s No Reply
I Sever The Circuit To It’s Intellectual Bloodstream
A Vein That Spits Sparks
No Longer In The Memory Bank
For I’ve Smashed The Security Chip
I Push More Buttons To Retrieve My Disc
The Computer Screen Is Blank
The Disk Into My Pocket Slips
Now Out Through One Door
As I Run Past The Holding Cells
Now I’m Back On The Streets
Where We Used To Meet
Where I Used To Live
Where Everyone Lies And Cheats
And No One Forgives……
Live And Let Live
My Past I Must Forget……..
The Streets
The streets May Sometimes Treat You Unfair
Empty , Yet Filled With Despair
I Remember A Time
When I Used To Live Here
It’s 2 a.m. , The Streets And I Alone
We Walk Together In Silence
Through The Places I’ve Out Grown
Shadows Of My Life
The Future Unknown
Words Painted Upon The Wall
Reflect The Writers Intelligence
As I Let Go Of The Past
I Listen For Destiny’s Call
I Now Seek My Future
As I Erase My Name From The Wall……..
The Past
I Look To The Sky
The Past Calls To Me
It Can’t Be Denied
My Past Is History
It Looks Me In The Eyes
It Laughs As I Cry
Yet It Doesn’t Tell Me Why
I Must Put It Aside
As Far As It Seems
My Past Is But A Dream
All The Vast Memories
Of My Deserted Destinies
Forever Gone
The Past Holds No Key
To Unlock The Door Of The Future
Unforseen
Take Me To Where The Distance Ends
And Tell Me
Would You Be Afraid
To Meet An Old Friend
Now The Tide Washes Away
What Time Had Not Wished To Stay
You’re Cast From The Past
It All Went So Fast
Shall The Memories Forever Last
In The Future
Live Beyond Your Past………
Let Go
Recollection Recalls Affection
As You Close Your Eyes
Your Tears Are But A Memory
Perhaps The Past Has Made You Wise
You No Longer Walk Upon This Path
Choose Wisely At The Fork In The Road
Let Go Of The Past
A New Life You Shall Behold
Child Of The Street
Standing On Your Own
Defy Defeat
At This Your Troubled Milestone………..
Whatever Happened
How Can I Forget
Good Times , Good Friends
Whatever Happened
How Did It All End
Whatever Happened
Remember The Cookouts In Our Yards
Picnics At The Woods
Parties In The Park
One Big Neighborhood
Drinking After Dark
Night After Night
Beer After Beer
Crankin Jams At The Lake
Drinking On The Pier
It All Seemed So Great
Just to Be Here
Yet We All Collide
With Our Emotions And Pride
A Girl , A New World
A New Life Unfurls
We Still Remained Together
Through Friendships Stormy Weather
But Finding Our Ways
We’ve Drifted Apart
No Matter What Anyone Says
We All Follow Our Heart
So Now I Write Upon An Empty Note
Of All My Old Friends , Few Remain True
Yet I Sometimes Wish It Could Be The Same
All Of Us Together Again
But It Never Will
Because Time Doesn’t Stand Still
Yet I’ll Never Forget
And Never Regret
The Time Spent With You
Time Spent With Friends
You’re No Longer There
I’ll Always Remember Us
And All The Good Times We Shared
Sometimes I Wish We Were Back There
Whatever Happened……….
The Edge Of Sobriety
As If Looking Through A Rear View Mirror
At The Life Must Leave Behind
Nothing In My Conscience Clearer
As I Lay Back To Unwind
Now All That’s Past
And Now I’m Gone
It Went So Fast
Yet It Took So Long
So Now I Wonder
Where Do I Belong
Here On The Edge
Here On The Edge Of Sobriety
The Black Clouds Pass
And The Sun Shines Through
I Remember My Friends
And All The Things We Used To Do
I Can’t Close The Book
So I Simply Turn The Page
I Take One Last Look
At My Younger Age
I Wonder How Time Could Pass Me Bye
And Leave Its Mark Upon My Life
I Can’t Bring It Back
No Matter How I Try
So I Take One Last Look
At My Life Gone Bye
I’ll Remember All My Life
I Can’t Forget
And I Can’t Deny
I Can’t Stop Myself
As I Start To Cry
Now I Know Where I Belong
I’m Here On The Edge
I’m On The Edge Of Sobriety………
Chapter Four
She’s The One
Somewhere
Somewhere She Waits For Me
I Wish I Knew Who She Was
I Wish She’d Notice Me
Only Just Because
Does She Have Room In Her Heart
An Empty Role In Her Life’s Play
Could I Be The One To Play The Part
Unknowing , My Auditions Today
There she Sits Upon A Rocking Chair
Smiling , I’m Staring In Silence
Could She Be The Answer To My Prayers
Both Of Us Sharing Diffidence
In The Stillness Of The Moment
Searching Eyes Meet
Then Turn Away
We Each Have A Question In Our Hearts
Yet We Know Not What To Say
We Each Need Someone To Be Beside
We Each Need Someone To Stay
Someday , Somehow , Somewhere……..
Keeper Of My Eyes
In A Field Of Fantasy
At The Edge Of A Stare
Emotional Energy
Her Eyes Met Me There
Contagious Contact
In Her Eyes My Sight
A Starlit Stream
We’re Ascending The Night
Taking Hold Of One Anothers Hand
Touching Tenderness
To Love And Understand
We Are Truly Blessed
Keeper Of My Eyes
Sharing The Same Sight
Keeper Of My Eyes
Sharing The Night
Delicate Feelings From The Depths Of Our Souls
Emotion And Ecstasy – Out Of Control
Love Within My Arms – I Need Her To Stay
Forever Her Charm,- Forever Starts Today
Keeper Of My Eyes
Never Set Me Free
Keeper Of My Eyes
Forever I;m In Love With Thee……..
Woman
The Language Of Love
Spoken In Every Tongue
This Woman I’ve Met
Has My Heart Undone
The Song She Sings
Is Music To My Ears.
Will She Be My Everything
To Never Disappear
As She Departs
Her Love Never Goes
For The Love In My Heart
Only Stronger Grows……
So Hard To Say Good Bye
Heaven Lies Within My Hold
My Angel Spreads Her Wings
Yet It’s Time For Me To Go
To Us Sorrow This Brings
Kindness Within Her Kiss
As We Say Good Night
It;s Only Her I Miss
We’re So Happy
As We Hold Each Other Tight
( Chorus )
I Look Into Her Eyes
I Try To Say Good Bye
Tell Me Why It’s So Hard
So Hard To Say Good Bye
Her Love’s Left Upon My Lips
When The Darkness Falls
She Reminds Me When I Get Home
To Give Her A Call
Farewell My Love
But Only Til Tomorrow
Farewell My Love
Separation , The Symptom Of Our Sorrow
( Chorus )
Warm And Welcome
You Fall Into My Arms
Another Day For Me
To Cherish Your Charm
I Love You When I’m Here
I Love You When I’m Away
I Love You Because You Care
I Could Love You Forever
Please Say You’ll Always Stay
It’s So Hard To Say Good Bye……
Birds Of A Feather
Gathering Lost Emotions
Poetry Upon The Page
Mixing The Perfect Potion
I’ve The Power To Engage
Enticing Me With The Wink Of Her Eye
Fervent , Yet Sly
Igniting The Flame That Once Had Died
Inviting Me To Stand At Her Side
Love , Love
It Flies As The Dove
That Lands In My Nest
And Sings Me Her Song
She Puts Me To The Test
Shall Our Love Be Strong
Flying Together
Emotions Entwined
Birds Of A Feather
Sharing Some Wine…….
My Lady My Love
Love Is The Heart Forever Ablaze
The Look In Your Eyes
As You Look Into Mine
My Emotions For You Written In Rhyme
My Loving Feelings Shall Forever Endure
Intimate Feelings Forever Pure
But Only For One As Yourself
My Lady , My Love
The Challenge Of My Quest
Is To Find Someone True
I Know I’ve Found The Best
For I’ve Found You
My Lady , My Love
You Found Me , You Crowned Me
You’re The Queen Of My Nights
A Dream For The Day
Taking Us To New Heights
Love Shows Us The Way
I’m Deep In Thought
I’m Deep In Love
You’re All I’ve Ever Sought
My Lady , My Love……
My Lady Friend Nancy
There’s A Space In My Heart
That Used To Be Empty
It’s Now Overflowing With Her
And The Love She Sends Me
I Try To Express My Feelings In Words
Yet They’re Not As Deep As My Feelings For Her
( Chorus )
My Beautiful Woman
A Creation Of Fancy
Grace In Her Every Step
My Lady Friend Nancy
She Walks Across The Room
I Feel Her Every Move
The Scent Of Her Perfume
Seems To Change My Mood
She’s My Friend , She’s My Lover
She Knows There’s No Other
Who Could Ever Replace Her
Under The Covers
As The Morning Wakes
We Cherish The Night We’ve Spent
The Love We Made
Was What We Meant
She’s My Reason For Waking
Our Lives Full Of Sharing
Our Loves For The Making
Two Hearts Full Of Caring
For Each Other , Each Day
Forever , For Each Other
Forever , I Need Her To Stay
( Chorus )
My Beautiful Woman
A Creation Of Fancy
Grace In Her Every Step
My Lady Friend Nancy
One Arrow In Two Hearts
One Touch In Our Hands
Sharing My Feelings
Only She Understands
Every Day More And More
I Grow Closer To The One
My Hearts Been Searching For
She’s The One Who’s Always There
When I Need Someone To Care
For We Need Each Other
To Share Each Day And Night
We’re Learning To Share
Each Others Lives
She’s More Than A Friend
She Means As Much As Life
She’s More Than A Feeling
I’ve Asked Her To Be My Wife………
Will You Marry Me
May I Have Your Hand
For This Ring To Place
My Kiss Upon Your Lips
The Smile Upon Your Beautiful Face
There’s Nothing Like Love
When It’s You And I
Shall We Share Each Others Lives
Until Its Our Time To Die
True Love Unknown
Then I Saw Your Face
Our Lives Together
A Never Ending Embrace
You’re In My Heart
You’re A Part Of Me
I’m A Part Of You
I’m Your Husband To Be……
Endlessly
A Beautiful Autumn Day
November Eleventh Nineteen Eighty Eight
Upon This Day I marry Nancy Lorraine
To Her My Life And Love I Dedicate
Together Forever
For Worse Or For Better
To Love Honor And Cherish
Until The Day We Shall Perish
( Chorus ) Endlessly Endlessly
That’s What Your Love Is To Me
Endlessly Endlessly
The Love We Share , Endlessly
No Longer A Dream
She’s In My Heart
Nothing Shall Come Between Us
Nor Tear Us Apart
I Do , I Do
The Spoken Words Of Love
To Affirm Our Affinity
The Language Of Love
With This Ring , I Thee Wed
We Share A Look In Our Eyes
Words Need Not Be Said
You May Kiss The Bride
( Chorus ) Endlessly , Endlessly
That’s What Your Love Is To Me
Endlessly , Endlessly
The Love We Share , Endlessly
With Rings Upon Our Fingers
Two Souls Become One
I Long To Share With Her
Every Setting Sun
Stay With Me For All Eternity
Never Leave My Side
Never Set Me Free
Always Be My Endlessly……..

Dying To Be Read
It’s Only Words
Words And Words And Words And Words
Some May Say I Sound Absurd
Write And Write And Write
I’m Doing It Again Tonight
Words Of Passion , Words Of Pain
Words Of Action Flowing Through My Veins
In This The Final Chapter Of My Book
Words Echo Within My Mind
All I Ask Is That You Take A Look
It’s Only Words You’ll Find
Words Of Fashion ,Words Of Fame
Words Bring Me Satisfaction
Let Me Explain
An Empty Page Within My Heart
Ink Flows Through My Veins
Perhaps You’re Reading A Piece Of Art
For Some Words Should Be Framed
Words Of Honor , Words Of Shame
My Words May Sometimes Hurt You
For This I’m Not To Blame……
Written
Why Do I Write , Why Do I Write
I Ask Myself Every Night
The Pen Pours My Emotion Onto The Page
The Words Flow Like The River
I’ve Freed Them From The Page
My Power Of Perception
Painted On The Leaf
Even Carved Into Stone
I Write To Be Read
As You’re Being Shown
I Write With My Head
My Heart And My Hand
I Long To Write For You
The Common Woman And Man
I Write For Expression
I Write To Be Read
Writing Is My Obsession
I’ll Write Until I’m Dead
I”ve The Right To Write
You’ve The Right To Read
You’ll See The Light
Realize The Rhyme
Take Heed …..Read Me…..
Writer…….
Before The Words Fade
Think Of Me
Before The Songs Made
Think In Key
If The Words Flow
Let It Be
Are You The Song
Sing To Me
Could I Be Your Song
The Mystic Hour
The Musical Flower
Persuasive Poems
Enchant The Ears
These Gentle Words
I Sing , You Hear
I’ve Found The Musical notes
Within The Heart Of Harmony
All The Sweet Sounds
It’s A Magical Melody
Combine The Sounds
To Create The Score
This Love I’ve Found
Could Also Be Yours
Everything Is Musical
Fingers Touching Strings
To Compliment The Composer
Voices Begin To Sing
Poetry On The Page
Voice In Key
Sing Me On Stage
Sing To Me
You’ll Never Cut The Chord
For I Rule The Rhythm
The Song Is My Sword
My Musical Incision
I’m A Library Of Lyric
A Million Words Strong
I’ve Made You My Critic
Could I Be Your Song ??????……..

The Late Great Composers
Spent Their Lives Creating Works Of Art
An Infinite Talent
Music Created From Within Their Hearts
A Love For Music
Beyond Imagination
Living Out Their Lives
In A Poor Mans Situation
A Penny For A Portrait
A Passion For Painting
There’s No Such Thing As Profit
With Life Still Remaining
Paint Your Glorious Work
Upon The Walls Of Your Casket
Your Name They May Remember
Your Art They’ll Never Forget
But Only When We’ve Passed Away
Will We Be Recognized
They’ll Sit And Ponder The Reasons
They Never Realized
Famous At Last
You Lie Within Your Grave
Once An Outcast
It’s Your Art They Now Save
If I Write A Million Miles
Would My Thoughts Run Out Of Ink
My Paperwork Lies In Piles
I Break For A Drink
No Finance , No obligation
I’m Writing All The Time
Talent Holds No Known Destination
I Am The Reason For The Rhyme
Dying To Be Read
Is This The Price I Must Pay
Upon My Death Bed
Or Within My Grave
Must I Be Ignored
Until The Day After I Die
Life Can We Afford
If All We Work For Is Denied
Could My Words Ever Touch You
As They’ve Touched This Empty Page
Will My Words Ever Touch You
While I Have An Empty Grave
Dying To Be Read
Today The Price Is Paid
This , The Day I’m Dead
My Words Shall Have It Made
I’m A Painter Of Words
Is It For Words I Live
I’m Dying To Be Read
To You These Words I Give……..

My Passion
I Long To Leave My Eternal Literary Mark
A Personal Piece Of My Knowledge
Perhaps A Piece Of My Art
For This is My Solemn Pledge
Love And Gratitude
These Poems Were Inspired By My Heavenly Father , Who Saved My Life More Than Once.
Some Are Prayers , Some Are Poems (Perhaps Songs)
These Poems Are About My Spiritual Travels From The Pits To The Ritz ,
Heaven To Hell And Back Again , And At Long Last My Spirit Has Found Peace
May These Words Inspire You And Provoke Thought About Eternity , Faith
Serenity ,Prayer And Peacefulness In This World We Share.
So Pray People Pray That On Earth , As It Is In Heaven
We Live In The Spirit Of Harmony
Remember Peace Begins With You ,A Little Love And Gratitude
As For Us Let It Be In God We Trust…..
The Mountain
Between Heaven And Hell
Lies A Sky Of Pain
Upon This Threshold I Dwell
Standing In The Rain
I Now Stand At Times Edge
Just Beyond A Misplaced Thought
Worthless Lessons Learned
Overshadow All I’ve Been Taught
I’ve Climbed A Mountain
To Seek The Meaning Of My Life
I Reach For The Hand Of God
To Find My Sight
I Absorb The Majesty
Of Gods Divine Hand
And The Beauty Of The Mountain
Upon Which I Stand
I’ve Disgraced Myself In The Past
I Once Thought I Was Damned
I Now Seek Gods Wisdom
For I’m Only A Man
At The Mountains Peak,
My Heavenly Father And I
It’s Gods Grace I Seek
As I Close My Eyes
I’ve Disconnected Myself
From The Rest Of The World
Within The Sky , Above The Earth
A Million Feet High
Serenity Is Easily Found Upon The Summit
I’m Walking Through The Clouds
I’ve Strayed Away From The World
I’m Far From It Now , Only To My Lord
Will I Bow
The Wicked World Below
So Full Of Themselves
Worshiping A Pile Of Money
And And All Their Worldly Wealth
I’m Now Upon A Spiritual Travel
I Have Few Worldly Possessions Left
My Past Life Has Unraveled
For Peace Within Myself Is My Quest
My Worldly Wants Were Not My Needs
Greed And Lust Clouded My Thoughts
I Did As I Pleased
I Now Live With The Pain It Brought
I Know Not Where I’m Going
As I Step Into Tomorrow
For In Faith I’m Growing
No Longer Seeking Sorrow
I Awoke In A Dream
The Nightmares Have Subsided
The Dawn Is Approaching
Another Day Of Life My Lord Has Provided
As I Descend The Mountain
A Light Shines Upon Me
I Now Walk In Faith
For Grace Was The Gift I Received…….
Ephesians 4 25
Stop Lying To Each Other; Tell The Truth
For We Are Parts Of Each Other , And When
We Lie To Each Other We Are Hurting Ourselves….
Let Go Of The Lies
Face The Facts
The Truth You Can No Longer Hide
Face The Truth
Let Go Of The Lies , Hidden Within Your Mind
The Master Of Deceit
Will Reach For Your Hand
The Truth You Shall Not Speak
Under His Command
Liars Learn From The False Prophet
As Day Turns Into Night
To Further His Tutors Effort
The Truth Is Hidden From Our Sight
I Hear Your Lies Carried Upon The Wind
As You’re Filling Others Heads With Your Fabrications
If Your Seeking For Truth Within Sin
All You’ll Ever Find Is An Evil Explanation……
Winds Lie
Within The Winds
Hide The Tallest Of Tales
I’ve The Key To The Breeze
As My Destiny Prevails
Opened Are The Gates To Wisdom
Threatened By My Desires
Reflecting Upon The Truth
Cursed As The Liar
I’ve Lost Before , But Nut Never Again
This Time It’s Not My Life
But My Soul To Be Sent
For Fate I’ll Wait , The Pearly Gates
Closed For Me Now , To Open , But How
Entwined Within My Spirit
I Hide – Yes – I Fear It
Far Too Many Lies , Now’s The Time
Time To Choose My Side
So Now I Will Swallow My Pride
When The Winds Lie
Will You Try To Catch The Breeze
When The Wind Cries
Will You Be Pleased
If The Wind Dies
You Too Could Be Seized
Let The Chains Be Broken
Let The Truth Come Out
Your Destiny Spoken
What Your Life Is All About
If You’ve A Love For Lies
Let Truth Be Your Guide
Treat Yourself Not With Haste
For It’s Only Truth You May Taste
Just Remember , It’s Your Soul To Waste
Your Own Choice , Your Fate
There’s No Need To Carry The Weight
For Our Destiny Lies Within The Pearly Gates
When The Winds Lie
Will You Try To Catch The Breeze
When The Wind Cries
Will You Be Pleased
If The Wind Dies
You Too Could Be Seized
As The Wind That Hides Within The Trees
I Now Seek The Truth Beneath The Leaves
Still I Feel The Wind
That I Can’t Touch Or See
As I’ve Spoken To You
What’s Been Taught To Me
So It’s To You I Speak
Seek The Truth
And Be As Free As The Breeze…….
Certain Desires
When A Fire Starts
The Soul Could Turn
It’s Loves Lost Art
If Hatred’s Learned
Anger And Sin
It’s Desire , Give In
Your Course Is Malicious
It’s Fire You Behold
Upon The Intoxication
Your Soul To Be Sold
Gods Apple Gone Rotton
Hatred Spreads It’s Seeds
Has Love Been Forgotten
Overpowered By Hatred And Greed
A Carnal Desire
Starts The Killers Fire
Satan’s Hand Holds The Knife
Satan’s Eyes Share His Sight
To Crave Bloodshed
To Take A Life
The Liars Desire
Is To Help You Conspire
Has The Tongue Of A Serpent
Caught Your Ear
Or Is It Mankind’s Genuine
Voice We Hear
The Bitterness Within The Words He Speaks
Twisted Are His Lies
Watch As He Drowns In Deciet
Deeply Distraught , Denying Defeat
Now He’s Been Caught
Who Did He Really Cheat
Shall We Hide From The Hand Of Fate
Confused And Decieved
The Fiery Fate Awaits
Abused In Their Defeat
No Pearly Gates
If You Feed The Fire
You Could Be Consumed
If You Restrain Certain Desires
You May Be Resumed….
Words On War
What Are Children Learning In School
What Are The Teachers Teaching
Fools , We’ve Broken The Golden Rule
What Message Are We Conveying
Do We Say The Pledge Of Allegiance Any More
Video Games , Corrupt Preachers
Movie Heroes , They’re All Teachers
What Are Children Learning In Sch
Control The Child’s Mind
While It’s Still In Development
War Is Not A Crime
For It’s Run By The Government
Infiltrate The Infant
For About Twenty Years
War And Politics
Is All They See And Hear
What Will Happen
To This Video Generation
Will Star Wars Become Reality
Is War The Next Sensation
Acting As If Wars A Party
Don’t Send An Invitation…….
Games
A Quarter In The Slot
Computerized Harmony
Endless Dashes And Dots
Machines Earning Money
A Fine Tuned Instrument
With Point Spread So Wide
You Have Your Own Implements
You’re Alone On Your Side
Intruders Are Scattered
A Battle To Fight
Push Button Protection
A Beam Of Light
Electronic Enemies
Digital Delays
Computerized Calamity
A Splattered Static Stain
Engaging In Battle
With A Mindless Machine
Eliminate Your Enemies
On The Video Screen
Intricate Technology
Within Their Hands
Observe The Children
Living In A Wonderland
Games Are For Children
Wars A Dangerous Game
Death The Only Desire
I’m A Child , Come Play With Me
Ready , Aim , Fire……..
Puzzled
Puzzle Of Ten Thousand Pieces
Each Needing One Another
Unlike The People Of My World
Watch Us Kill Each Other
Who’s To Say You’re A Better Man Than I
Should We Not Act Like Sisters And Brothers
Worthy Am I To Take Another Life
One Better Than The Other
Come Share My Thirst For Malice
A Tooth For A Tooth , An Eye For An Eye
We Kill Without Prejudice
Much Better For I That You Should Die
War
I’m Sitting In The Sand
My Head Within My Hands
I Gaze Out Upon The Ocean
Humanity I No Longer Understand
Battle Ships Upon The Water
As Guns Rule The Ground
All This Senseless Slaughter
Yet It’s Nothing New I’ve Found
Cities Burn In Flames
As The Ashes Smoulder
Death Upon The Nameless Faces
Does The Heart Get Any Colder
World War One Who Really Won
World War Two Was Nothing New
Will World War Three
Put Us To Rest At Peace
Smashing Waves
As I Kneel And Pray
Is Mankind So Crazed
As To End All Our Days
Take A Life
Take Us All
We Live , We Stand
We Perish , We Fall
War , War
Lets Have One More
Threaten The World
With No World At All
Madness On The Rise
As We Watch The Nations Fall
Taking Our Last Chance
Forsaking Our Children’s Lives
Is It The Push Of A Button
Or The Pull Of The Trigger
No One Profits From War
Other Than The Undertaker And The Gravedigger
As The Bullets Still Fly
I Sense That God Is Crying
And I Ask Myself Why
Love Is Always Denied…….
Are We Invited
Do We Refuse Our Own Virtues
Do We Value Our Own Lives
Does Peace Lie Within Power
Or A Dignified Demolition Device
Federal Funding For Nuclear Arms
The Earths Termination At Our Expense
Who Are We That We Should Be Left Unharmed
And Who Shall Live To Pay The Consequence
Opposing Nations In A Race To The End
Their Precious Bombs In Exultation
Perhaps I’m To Ignorant To Comprehend
Are We Invited To Witness The End……..
In God We Trust
Ashes To Ashes , Dust To Dust
We Live By These Words , In God We Trust
American Anger , The Russian Fist
Yet It Only Takes A Finger To Do Something As This
The Barriers Of Resistance Hold Our Sands Of Time
Should We Extinguish Our Existence
No One Gets Charged For This Crime
Nuclear Fission , The Split Decision
Push The Button If You Insist
Have Some Respect We’ll Still Exist
These Words I Speak Bring All To Their Feet
Leaders We No Longer Trust
For Their Words Turn Truth To Rust
Atom Bombs Keep Two Nations Strong And Calm
Russian Roulette , The American Dream
Place Your Bet , It’s As Bad As It Seems
Now Witness The Atomic Blast
Forget The Future , Forget The Past
Truth Turned To Torture
Truth Turned To Rust
Ashes To Ashes
Dust To Dust
Political Truth Turned To Rust…
In God We Trust…………..
Hope
The Bloody Swords Of Vengeance
Mark The Wars Of History
The Greedy Rulers Ponder
The Death Writ At Their Feet
And The Less Fortunate Of Us
Legally Murder In Their Name
Pulling The Trigger Of Prejudice
For All In War Is Pain
Yet My Spirit Marches On
With A Scar Upon My Soul
As I Kill The Poor Peasants
Mercy I Withhold
And I’ll Be Praying An Eternity
To My God , My Soul To Save
It Haunts Me Every Morning As I Wake
That I’m The One To Blame
Shame Shall Visit My Memory
For Endless Days To Come
I Shall Relive Every Moment
Of The Sin That I Have Done
So I’ll Keep Praying To The Endless One
To Forgive This Monster I’ve Become
Now Sorrow Fills My Soul
As I Clutch My Crucifix
I Can’t Deny What I Have Done
But My God Does Forgive
I Was There Within The Battle
I’m Sorry I Chose Myself To Live
I Won’t Deny What I Had Become
But My God Does Forgive
So Please Breathe Upon Me Gently
Oh My Sweet Saviors Breath
And Although I Have Passed Away
Tell Me It’s Not My Death…….
World War Blues
Behold The Suffering Of Humanity
Through The Eyes Of The World
Such A Tragic View
Watch As We Kill Each Other
For Our Countries Sake
The Cast Is Our Children
In This Political Play
We Vote For Our Leaders
They Lead Us To War
For This Answer I’m A Seeker
Do We Even Know What We’re Fighting For
Our Leaders Fight For Causes Dear To Their Heart
Yet Very Far From Their Homes
We’re Sent Off To Battle
As They Sit Upon Their Thrones
They Send Us Over Seas For Our Final Days
Diminished Crusaders Charging Into Battle
Only To End Their Lives
For The Land In Which We Were Born
Is The Land For Which We Shall Die
I’d Like To Die Another Day
But This Day Is Mine
Life’s Door Now Closes Behind Me
For This Is My End
Time To Meet My Maker
This My Soul To Send
Will My Expiration Bear Any Fate Upon This World
To My Country My Life I Lend
Tell Me , Has Humanity Ever Known Peace
As All Our Dreams Come Crashing Down
Feel The Tears Of The World
As War Destroys Another Generation
Our Politicians Thank You
For Your Dead Child’s Participation
You Get A Flag And A Tombstone In Arlington
So They Can Justify Their Expectations
Mortality Reigns Forever
For All Are Born To Die
Through The Eyes Of The World
We Feel The Tears
Yet We Don’t Hear The Soldiers Cries
This World Treated Them Unkind
Their Families , Their Loves
Even Their Lives , They’ve Left Behind……..
