Mutual Lovers
I want a woman with marriage on her mind
But in this day and age it's getting hard to find
People just want to move ahead and leave their lovers behind
But solitude and independence wasn't meant for mankind
All our lives we find no man is an island
So mother to wife, father to husband
We all need someone to hold hand in hand
It's our mutual pleasure and our mutual command

Pollution Of Sin
Adam and Eve stole from Mother Earth
And didn't value what its worth
It seems like a high price took affect
From a little cause and effect
But there's no escaping our dire plight
If we can't turn wrong back into right
But we can't change time and space
Marking certain doom for our race
So our sins just accumulate
Faster than the pollution can disseminate
We need a new Force, a new Energy
With ever increasing urgency

Poverty Struck
Billions are poverty struck
Left out of luck
Cause the rich won't give a buck
So those billions are poverty stuck

Disappointing Father
You look at me finding disappointment in what you see
I look at you but am blinded by the hypocrisy
A true father looks at his offspring as a treasure
Not something to be put against a measure
Not something graded
Then degraded
You are distant to the emotions you once have shown
You felt like me before you were grown
You thought your father had no affection
Always looking for defection
Now you're cold and hard like an island
Complaining about the seas but the shore is at your brutal command
You have the power you despised your father for
But controlling me you're always wishing for more
In your loving friendship I saw you as kindly and wise
But now as my father I'm trying to hold back my despise

The Path I've Taken
I stand alone at a dead end
The path I took I cannot amend
Either way the path I took I wouldn't forsaken
For the path I took was worth the taking
But no matter how fine a road you pick there will always be fears
There will be prices to pay in tears
But perseverance in righteousness and meekness shall secure
Your ability to endure

Failure
I have lost my nerve
Passing life's tests on a curve
I am not any better than I was before
There is no use in trying anymore
I am a failure and a fake
The only good I do is for my own sake
I have dozens of problems I can do nothing about
I can't ask for help when I don't give any out

Trapped Childhood IV
Sitting alone amongst an immense crowd
No one will listen though I scream so loud
I'm still stuck in my trapped childhood
I can't leave it for something good
I am stuck this way until I am finally grown
Then I'll find my mate and I won't be sad and alone
But for now I'm still stuck in isolation
And still no friend in all creation
I am stuck with all my depression
To wander in my isolation
To walk and think only about the sadness
But I still hope this will become gladness

Trapped Forever II
I've tried to break out of my misery
With every ounce of my courage I tried to break free
But I cannot escape my depression
Or am able to leave my isolation
I live alone inside my one man room
Surrounded by my own inner gloom
I wonder how I will cope
With just a thread left of hope

Trapped Forever III
As I start to see my end
I see my old friend
His carefree style brings me a sense of relief
He has made joy where once there was grief
It looks like I will always have you
For some one I can always talk to
So feel welcome here my old friend
Just don't leave me again

Flower Beds
As I gently lay my head
Upon the flower bed
The world starts to disappear
And God's peace comes near
With the grass' soft feeling
As my pain starts healing
With the flowers cologne
Giving a joy I had never known
And ever so quietly
Comes a robin's symphony
To calm your heart
As the sun paints its art
Without a sense at waste
You can even taste
Any bush's berry
Or any apple from any tree

Homeland Security
Everybody's worried about the sign of the times
But looking out my window I don't have to worry about the crimes
Life is never quites as hard
When your life is in your backyard
It's easy to feel safe
When you're keeping the faith
When you are where you can be free
You feel an abundance of security

My Bike Ride
Riding along this bike trail
Going past the beauty without cease
The fresh oxygen is all I smell
Riding my bike along with peace
My bike ride goes along the track
This is my best time ever
Now I must go back
Now back home to stay forever

Ode To My Love II
Once again I do see
The girl with all beauty
Nothing more I wish to be
Than her to be with me
Sweet, loving, pretty and kind
This makes me wish she was mine
Now I find she does love me
And forever it will be

To Brittany Gray X
I didn't realize how much I seemed to miss you till you came back
Your familiarity and friendship was what I had lacked
It's strange despite all the time we'd been apart
Your love for me did not decay in your heart
You still embraced me like it was a family reunion
And your face emitted enthusiasm through your widen grin
Compassion and intimacy illuminated from behind your eyes
Our mutual happiness reciprocated at our chance meeting our happy surprise

Ebony III
I'm not hurt when I'm not with you
But when I'm with you I fear everything I do
I fear we're not as compatible as I imagine
I fear your kindness may not be genuine
Even if you were kind with truest compassions
What if we don't have the same goals and passions
How could we share a family
If our priorities aren't in unity
It's not that our love for each other doesn't mean a lot
We just have to know the value of everything we got
