PIECE OF TRASH
I wish I were just a thing
So I would get thrown away
Just like the piece of trash
That I feel I really am
Remembering so many things
Regretting so much in my past
So many mistakes I’ve made
And now you’re all I have
You’re the one who holds me close
Through my fits of crying
Only you make me want to live
You make me keep on trying
You’re the only one I ever want
Without you I feel like dying
You’re my reason for smiling
You’re my reason for fighting
There isn’t anyone I’ve never hurt
Who I hold close to my heart
Even my own dear mother
Says I’ve broken her heart
I think back to all she’s done
For me since the day came
For me to be born
And ruin everything
Even you I know I’ve hurt
I wish I could undo it
For it I’ll go on hating
Myself till the day I die
I wish I was never born
So I could not hurt
Without you to guide me
I keep dreaming of dying
Some would say my faith is weak
I ask would they be different
If all the hope they ever had
Was taken away in a day
As the life in their life
Was put on hold for lying?
And in that day they lost
What was everything to them?
I don’t mean to go on like this
For us I’ll keep on vying
I wish I were just a thing
So I would get thrown away
Just like the piece of trash
That I feel I really am
MESSAGES TO GOD
Why is this world
So full of morons
And jerks and
Politicians and liars
Instead of good
People who care
And respect and
Have honest desires?
Why is war everywhere?
Nuclear warheads, WMDs
Gold prices rising
A bonus for oil companies
Power climbs, freedom declines
Poverty on the rise
Hear all the widows
And the poor orphan’s cries
Ominous rumors spread
So may innocents dead
Tiny pieces of land
Where rebels stand
Massacres continue
To the grief in you
I wonder if this is
All the world will be?
This guilt building
Up in me tells me
I’m not the only
One who can see
Hearing the rifle shots
Picturing the refugees
Messages to God send
Please bring this to an end
“BECAUSE OF YOU"
From the depth of my heart
I wanna tell you
My heart and soul
Body and mind are
All for you
Forever, through
All of time
In the good
And in the bad
I am for you
Even when I'm thinking
About jumping
Off a bridge
Or walking into a
Gang-filled neighborhood
And getting shot-up
On the block
I wonder and I stop
[Because of you
I go on living my life
Because of you
Because you are here
Standing at my side
Giving me love
I go on with my life
I keep on fighting
Keep on striving
Because of you] R1
You are my strength
You are my heart
You are my soul
Even when i fall apart
And when this is through
When nothing is left
I'll still have this
Love from you
And I still go on

WHAT LOVE IS ALL ABOUT
When we started out
We were so happy
Hugs and kisses
So many sighs
We were together
All the time
But how time flies
So many changes now
And all I know is
I loved him then
And I love him now
Only I don’t know
What love is all about
So I asked him
What love is
He said love is strength
Love is life
Without it
You can breathe
But you can’t be alive
Love is when
You can only see
Through closed eyes
And when you open
Them, all you will see
Is the one you love
And that one
Should be me
Now, when times
Have changed so much
And we’re so far apart
Fighting for our love
Coz we hurt in our hearts
Every second that goes by
And I know
You loved me then
And I know
You love me now
But I still can’t figure out
What love is all about
Coz he said
Love is strength
Love is life
It’s something without
Which nobody can be alive
He said love is
Pain, and love
Is caring
Love is fear
Love is sharing
And you can
Only see when
You close your eyes
And when you open
Them, you’ll finally
Be truly alive
And he says
I don’t understand
What he wants
Is in my hands
And he asks
Me to know
Who he is
Coz I still don’t know
And I try
Don’t know why
But I just can’t
Get this right
Maybe it’s love too
Something more
I have to get through
To find out
What love is all about
So I’m still learning
My love is my life
It’s all I want
To keep in my mind
I guess I’ll never
Know all of it
Just trying to find out
What love is all about
WONDER WHY
Walking down the street
Crying in the rain
Wondering why the hell
I’m not insane
Walking down this path
Wondering why
{I never get anything right
No matter how hard I try
Messing up my life
Messing up his too
Being messed up inside
Coz I can’t be with you
Raindrops falling
On my face
As the winds roar by
Leaving met to wonder why
I can’t just break away
I can’t just find a way
I can’t just spread my wings
And fly, like these winds
Why do I have to
Be stuck as you do?
I don’t want to hurt you
Coz I love you}C1
I’m drenched to the core
In rain, and with your
Memories to help me, your
Love to guide me through
I still don’t understand
Why I can’t be with you
I don’t know what I’ve done
To deserve this horrid turn
It’s the worst time
In my whole life
I feel so scared
So very unsatisfied
And as this time
Passes my by
These tears stream
Down my face
Both my heart and eyes cry
And I wonder why
