Shelly-Ann Legg

One wish I pray to Come through
Perhaps a dream that could come to pass
I would spend each day with you
And hope that forever they would last
...

Sometimes its not the endings that hurt you
But the path in which they lie
Leaves you bewildered without a clue
Things, time and people faded away without a final goodbye
...

I dream of a life of peace
Wherein I can live a life of ease
Where there's no difference in being black or white
And everyone can walk the street anytime of night
...

Shattered and broken I was
Lonely and desolate too
Looked for answers but thought this ordeal was a must
Wish I was dreaming but it was too true
...

You made me smile and laughed when I wanted to cry
Made me come alive when I wanted to die
You made my heart smile instead of frown
Gosh you really turned my life upside down
...

I'm tearing down these walls
That contributed to my downfalls
I'm freeing myself out of this captivity
Visualising my goals, my life and this reality
...

In your time of trouble and despair
Fear not I will always be here
So tormented, can't eat or sleep
All you seek is peace but your heart weep
...

Let me tell you of a story
Of a girl who didn't know how to stop
She jumped every hurdle, no this wasn't dory
And from the bottom she rose to the very top
...

They came, and pretend they care
And your downfall they wish to share
They play tricks and say sweet things
And the joy their words often brings
...

God lead me to your holy place
Thats filled with mercy love and grace
Forgive me for the times i frowned
Let me lay before thy throne
...

The nights were so very cold and long
So unhappy all I did was wrong
In your arms I wish to be forever
Lay and talk and chill together
...

I have forgotten your face and kiss
Your warm embrace I no longer miss
I have forgotten the love we once knew
And the fact that you've found someone new
...

Every time I think of you
Tears begin to fall, pretty hurts
That could be true
But love hurts worst
...

Tears often run down my cheeks
That which caused it I'd rather not speak
Tears are for cleansing stress and bring release
Dear God take away this pain please
...

When tomorrow starts without me
And I can't be here to see
The sun may find your eyes
That are filled with tears for me
...
