Danny Hammell

Show those around that you are kind
Be sight for those that may be blind
And carry those that cannot walk
And speak for those that cannot talk.
...

We work to live and live to die;
We work so hard and just get by.
We live our lives from day to day;
There is no time to stop and play.
...

As I lay, snuggled up, in bed;
The rhymes keep running through my head.
The words are vivid and alive
My thinking brain on overdrive.
...

There is something inside that makes us believe
That joining the best is how to achieve,
But when we get there we find it’s untrue;
All the achieving was done without you.
...

Have you ever gazed into such loving eyes?
And know there’s no secrets and know there’s no lies.
For all that you stand for is all that they need
And when they’re away you can feel your heart bleed.
...

Your best is only viewed by those that think they are the best
By those that only close their eyes and judge by their interest
They’re only there by whom they knew, but now they set the score;
So all the effort one puts in shall not be seen no more.
...

Now this is the outcome of war
With bodies all over the floor
And some have no limbs nor a face
There is no escaping this place.
...

I am so cold and I am wet
The day is dark the mood is set.
The rain is pouring down outside
And from the damp you shall not hide.
...

I felt the grip within her palms
I held her dying in my arms
And watched her eyes fill up with tears;
I tried to hide her from her fears.
...

When this world beats you to the floor
And those around you close their eyes
And no one helps you through the door
Instead they just ignore the cries.
...
