But, inside my brain
This awful darkness blazed
Outside...

I go to sleep await the dawn
So yet again, the cycle starts

Yelling her accomplishments in a mighty rage
yesteryear's in the past, new beginnings she raise her mast
And sails to the shining seas
She blazes a trail to a path less known
Where others wi...

There lived a penguin, whose thoughts did weigh
Heavily on his mind.
He thought of a vast array of things big and small
But there was one facet he thought of most of all..
Love.
Love being that for a p...

It's for the few, and the proud.
Oft' broken-hearted, yet vain.
Yet she is able to laugh so loud,
despite inwardly suffering pain.
Giving birth in spite of sorrow,
choosing instead to heed the call.
Of a promise for a tomorrow,...

"Yes, I'm afraid it is cancer," frowned the doctor,
"I'm really sorry to have to say,"
the words echoed inside my head,

With danger frolic do I
Always ready to die
In my life, I sacrifice
Valuable is my advice
I, a true patriot

A pride for the nation
A smart creation
At the border, I risk my life
So as no one shall strive

Boxing is now in his blood, a sport that he honestly loves,
Jack really does look the part, when he pulls on his 10oz gloves.
Ding! Ding!...The bell starts round one, in a second, he's up off his stool,
on his toes he's bobbin, an'...

we'd never, ever felt this way for anyone else before.
As she looked out of her bedroom window, I was a fantasy to her,
and I'd also took notice of the mysterious ...

Sweet Thing
A butterfly whispers a solitaire kiss
A cinnamon smile in perfect bliss
Honey drips on Marzipan lips
A smile , A dimple , A gentle wisp
Demerara adorns your sweet tongue
I'm so glad you've invited me along

I felt I lost a really good friend
When his life came to an end
Always there on my tv screen
My young childhood hero
If you see what I meen.
Following his career from a
Young man who rose to fame
He became flourishing actor

We always question, why
When a soul, says goodbye
Misunderstanding death, we fear it
Its sole purpose, to free our spirit
Thus, unencumbered of flesh and bone
It returns to heaven, which is home

the best decision, our government's made yet.

without smelly smoke contaminating our lovely grub.
No more asking politely, but to no ava...
