My Friend

I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you. I love you not only what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me. I love you because you have done more than any creed could have done to make me good, and more than any fate could have done to make me happy... You have done it without a touch, without a word, without a sign. You have done it by being yourself, perhaps that is what being a friend means, after all.

Slow me down 'LORD'

Ease the pounding of my heart by the quieting of my mind, Steady my pace, Give me, amidst the days confusion, The calmness of the everlasting hills. Break the tension of my nerves and muscles with the soothing music of singing streams that live in my memory. Help me to know the magical, restoring power of sleep, teach me the art of taking 'minute vacations' ...Slowing down to look at a flower, to chat with a friend, to read a few lines from a good book. Remind me of the fable of the hare and the tortoise that the race is not always to the swift: That there is more to life then measuring it's speed. Let me look up at the branches of the towering oak and know that it grew slowly and well, Inspire me to send my own roots down deep into the soil of life's endearing values, that I may grow toward the stars of my greater Destiny... Slow me down, Lord.

My Desire

For you are my friend, I long To bring you some Imperishable gift of beauty. Something glowing and warm, like the coals of wild fire. Something as cool and sweet as lilies of desire. Something as restful and clean, as smooth white sheets at night When one is so very tired. Something with the taste of Spring water from high places Or like tang of cool purple grapes to the mouth but O friend I desire, For I cannot buy such gifts for you, come go with me Out into the little ever green fields of living, and let us gather in our baskets, like manna, from God's gift to us the down pouring, exquisite beauty of life itself

My Heart's Choice

I have never been rich before but you have poured into my heart's high door A golden hoard.. I look for no greater prize than your soft voice the steadiness of your eyes Is my heart's choice I have never been rich before but I divine your step on my sunlit floor and wealth is mine

To Dark Eyes Dreaming

Dreams go fast and far these days They go by rocket pace, They go arrayed in lights or in the dust of stars, Dreams, these days go fast and far, dreams are young, these days or very old, they can be black blue or gold, They need no special charts nor any fuel, it seems, only one role applies to all our dreams. They will not fly except in open sky, A fenced in dream will surely die..

I Am Meth

I destroy homes, I tear families apart,
take your children, and that's just the start.
I'm more costly than diamonds, more precious than gold,
The sorrow I bring is a sight to behold.
If you need me, remember I'm easily found,
I live all around you - in schools and in town
I live with the rich; I live with the poor,
I live down the street, and maybe next door.
I'm made in a lab, but not like you think,
I can be made under the kitchen sink.
In your child's closet, and even in the woods,
If this scares you to death, well it certainly should.
I have many names, but there's one you know best,
I'm sure you've heard of me, my name is crystal meth.
My power is awesome; try me you'll see,
But if you do, you may never break free.
Just try me once and I might let you go,
But try me twice, and I'll own your soul.
When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie,
You do what you have to -- just to get high.
The crimes you'll commit for my narcotic charms
Will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms.
You'll lie to your mother; you'll steal from your dad,
When you see their tears, you should feel sad.
But you'll forget your morals and how you were raised,
I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways.
I take kids from parents, and parents from kids,
I turn people from God, and separate friends.
I'll take everything from you, your looks and your pride,
I'll be with you always -- right by your side.
You'll give up everything - your family, your home,
Your friends, your money, then you'll be alone.
I'll take and take, till you have nothing more to give,
When I'm finished with you, you'll be lucky to live.
If you try me be warned - this is no game,
If given the chance, I'll drive you insane.
I'll ravish your body, I'll control your mind,
I'll own you completely, your soul will be mine.
The nightmares I'll give you while lying in bed,
The voices you'll hear, from inside your head.
The sweats, the shakes, the visions you'll see,
I want you to know, these are all gifts from me.
But then it's too late, and you'll know in your heart,
That you are mine, and we shall not part.
You'll regret that you tried me, they always do,
But you came to me, not I to you.
You knew this would happen, many times you were told,
But you challenged my power, and chose to be bold.
You could have said no, and just walked away,
If you could live that day over, now what would you say?
I'll be your master, you will be my slave,
I'll even go with you, when you go to your grave.
Now that you have met me, what will you do?
Will you try me or not? It's all up to you.
I can bring you more misery than words can tell,
Come take my hand, let me lead you to hel

The Magic Of Love

Love is like magic
And it always will be.
For love still remains
Life's sweet mystery!!
Love works in ways
That are wondrous and strange
And there's nothing in life
That love cannot change!!
Love can transform
The most commonplace
Into beauty and splendor
And sweetness and grace.
Love is unselfish,
Understanding and kind,
For it sees with its heart
And not with its mind!!
Love is the answer
That everyone seeks...
Love is the language,
That every heart speaks.
Love can't be bought,
It is priceless and free,
Love, like pure magic,
Is life's sweet mystery!
