An Ode to Human Rights
We fought for rights and fought like hell
many died, but human rights was on our side.
...
In everyone's mind
A story is written
From the day we are born
With sound, smell and vision
...
It was easier to say goodbye
than stand there clumsy
19 and shy
You said "Hello"
...
Glistening pieces of my broken heart
Mock me in the sun
I sit and watch kids playing games
Like you They catch and run
...
My life in colour
.
As I age in shades of gray
and reminisce 'bout younger days
...
Eat all your vegies
be seen and not heard
dont talk to strangers
give up the last word
...
I sit here chained,
the foot of my Master's bed,
a withering corpse that cares not for worldly pleasures,
I yearn for His spirit
...
Maybe the cat ate a poisoned bat
Or one too many rats and just got fat
So fat it just sat
With being so fat maybe the cat was dead instead
...
An up hill battle on my way home
Wrestling the wind holding me back.
...
Love Is Blind & The 7 Year Itch
Love is blind
.
22
Where is the line
That fine divide
That swinging tide
I missed the signs
As love welled inside
Heart and mind
Love is blind
.
29
Husband and wife
Caught up with life
bills pile up
avoiding strife
Kids to cart
Emotions rife
on the edge of a knife
as clocks unwind
Love is blind
.
36
Broken vows
time rolls on
Fix things now
But we were wrong
Unresolved
Never mind
Everyone knows
Love is blind
.
43
One day we wake
In separate rooms
The great mistake
singing separate tunes
life redefined
That pain inside
Love is blind
.
50
Splits agreed
But hate breeds greed
Revenge indeed
is love in need
A Lawyer to feed
money to find
Love sure is blind.
