 BEING ALONE
BEING ALONE WITHOUT YOU AS MY FRIEND
IS LIKE FALLING WHILE DROUNDING IN AN ENDLESS ABYSS
DROP ME A LINE IT MAY SAVE MY LIFE
SIGN IT MY FRIEND AND SAVE MY MIND
YOU COULD WRITE ME A LETTER BUT PLEASE BEWARE
IT IS OF COARSE MY SANITY THAT IS IN DISPAIR
SOMEDAY I HOPE TO SEE YOU AGAIN
IF ONLY BECAUSE YOU ARE MY BEST FRIEND
WE WILL BE APART FOR THIS SHORT WHILE
BUT FOR YOU MY FRIEND I'LL WALK A THOUSAND MILES
MY HEART AND MY MIND IS WHERE YOU WILL STAY
TO HAVE MY FRIEND BACK, ANY PRICE I WILL PAY
SO KEEP THIS POEM AS IT IS MY FIRST ONE
SOMEDAY WE'LL LOOK BACK, LAUGH AND HAVE FUN.
WRITTEN BY  T.J.  MY SON
 BAD NOTE
I BROUGHT A BAD NOTE HOME FROM SCHOOL
I CAME IN THE DOOR AND TRIED TO ACT COOL
TOLD MY DAD AND BLAMED THE TEACHER
THE WAY HE SCOLDED HE SOUNDED LIKE A PREACHER
SHE SAID MY SELF CONDUCT WAS WORSE THEN BAD
MOM DIDN’T BELIEVE IT AND IT MADE HER MAD
SHE SAID I HAD MORE TIME THEN NEEDED
AND HADN’T GOTTEN MY ASSIGNMENT COMPLETED
I’VE TRIED MY BEST AND RACKED MY BRAIN
BUT ALL MY WORK SEEMS TO BE IN VAIN
I HOPE I’VE MADE THIS POEM TO RHYME
MAYBE YOU’LL EXCEPT IT THIS TIME.
WRITTEN BY MY SISTER TINA, DAD AND ME
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
WHEN I CALL YOUR NAME
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
TO YOU IT'S ALL THE SAME
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
WHEN I CRY
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
WHEN I WONDER WHY
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
WHEN I ASK MY GOD ABOVE
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
WHEN I PROCLAIM FOR YOU MY LOVE
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
WHEN I REACH FOR YOU
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
YOU DON'T BELIEVE IT'S TRUE
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
WHEN I SAY I'M SORRY
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
OR THE TEARS I CRY
YOU DON'T HEAR ME
HOW CAN YOU EXPECT OUR FEARS TO PART
WRITTEN BY SOMEONE SPECIAL TO ME
MOMS CAN SEE

YOU HAVE SAVED ME BECAUSE CAN SEE
THE LITTLE GIRL DEEP INSIDE OF ME
THOUGH NO ONE ELSE SEEMS TO CARE
I KNOW YOU WILL ALWAYS HOLD HER THERE
SHE WAS YOURS TO HAVE AND HOLD
TO CARE FOR, TO LOVE AND ULTIMATELY MOLD
THOUGH FROM YOU TOO AT TIMES SHE WOULD HIDE
SHE ALWAYS KNEW YOU WHERE BY HER SIDE
PATIENTLY WAITING TO HELP HER LEARN
FROM HER MISTAKES UPON HER RETURN
ONLY YOU KNOW SHE NEVER REALLY GOES AWAY
FOR AS LONG AS YOUR THERE SHE WILL ALWAY STAY.
THIS WAS WRITTEN BY ME FOR MY MOM
 
FREE ME

PLEASE COME TO ME AND SET ME FREE
PLEASE COME TO ME AND HELP ME SEE
PLEASE COME TO ME
AND
FREE ME FROM THE BONDS OF HELL
FREE ME FROM THE RIVERS SWEEL
FREE ME FROM THIS HIDDEN STATE
FREE ME FROM THE HANDS OF FATE
FREE ME FROM THE DARKNESS HERE
FREE ME FROM THE ENDLESS FEAR
AND
LEAD ME TO YUR PLACE OF PEACE
LEAD ME TO A SAFE RELEASE
WRITTEN BY ME FOR ????
MOON

I endure behind ye moon
Secret shadows conceal Thyself
Fortune is a summer storm
Tempt this mortal,
your witchcraft be amorous
Yon womans loveliness quench the savage creature
whom unto now has neglect and suffering to feed his appetite
Recieve me young maiden
Favour our marvel
Hold and nourish this heart
Sweet music beseiges her will
WRITTEN BY DAV.. A GOOD FRIEND
PITTIFULL MAN
AS a pittifull man sits guietly in his lonly abiss
he ponders the past, the future, things he will miss
He watches as the cons come and go
wonders what untold things he'll come to know
He's quite, he's withdrawn, stays to himself
he watches his life go by, as if from a shelf
He hopes this spell passes quickly
His mind follows his heart back
to the smell of fresh air, pines and hickory
the days drag by, the nights even slower
his thoughts fear to go to the time he must show her
that he's still just a man
but a new one infact, he is changed somehow
for better he's not so sure
a miscarrige of justice, was that the cure?
or
was it the hurt in the face of his lover for life
the dreamswept girl he took for a wife?
time will tell,
yet,time changes all things
heals us with the gentleness of a soft summer breeze
she will forgive him
but
can he forget
he wounded his angel
from god she was sent
he wants to do better, he thinks he can
his thoughts drift back to her
he smiles as he remembers
her love keeps him from giving up
as he fights back the fears and the tears
the thoughts of her love remind him
he's not such a pittifull man

Day Break
Slayer of my endless, forever night.
like the moon and stars in twilight
In the end was no stopping her flight
Perhaps I took her for granted
like the rising sun does her new day
Or may it be like stars in night sky
I thought she swore and promised to stay
I should have known better
what fool was I, that now I see
Twas the most heavenly body "yes the Dawn
that I thought, was passed by me
Again I say cheers to the Dawn
mistress of morning, killer of night
Like the mist off far away oceans
our love and passion, was burnt out of sight
Be well sweet love on your glorious flight
Farewell true love, happiness is yours, RIGHT
goodby me friend, just go, leave me here
in my endless forever night.

Todays-Tomorrows-Yesterdays
As darkness leaves the shy
and the days blue comes into sight
Another yeasterday behind me
alone I morn, sleepless, another night.
Left here with this sadness
you've placed within my heart
Memories of what we had, lifes treasures
left so far behind.
The past I can not change
and pity the future can't be known
The present is the only thing
I can deal with on my own.
I reach inside trying to find your light
in a world where things are so dim
As each day passes my will fades
leaving my chances very slim.
Feeling lost in a world where
I know I can't belong
knowinng ever minute is a waste
Yet for 6 mone months i'll carry on.
As i struggle on feeling
of piercing pain and sorrw
somehow I made it thru this day
Can I make it thru tomorrow
Written by T.S.

"One day"
"one day", if we look back
do you ever think, we'll believe that
our love was meant to last
more then just "One Day"
Do you think we'd trade our memories
of what it should be, will be "One Day"
A broken heart, a shatted dream
a promise of, what God will deem.
A true love, a blessed love
Oh just to be there "One Day".
Right now my life's on hold
"one day", each day
terrors untold
My mind holds on
clinging to thoughts of you"One Day"
hold on , hold out
my love my friend
"One Day" we'll be together again.

Untitled (till later)
Tonight I sit amidst a croud, though never more alone i've felt.
trying so hard to figure out, the reasons for the cards i'm dealt.
All i've lost, the hearts i've broken, why the Lord gave this pain to me
The he spoke in a quite wisper..."I've done it child so you will see,
your life was headed for distruction, those around you dragged along
now you've time for quite reflection..time to learn where you've gone wrong
Four souls your guideness I entrusted, yours, your wifes, and sons
though I know you love them dearly, they mean so mush more to me.
Sometimes loss occurs for you to relieze what you had
take tis time for inventory, count you blessings, don't be sad
For now i'll teach you how to Love all four, in ways so pure and true
and send you back a happier, healthier man.Prepared to teach them what to do

So
Now I sit midst that same croud, with love so deep I long to show
I wish I culd speak aloud the words for you, my love to know
a better man, a better father..these i pledge one day to be
I know God has shown me Love in ways I never thought i'd see
Written by T.S.
Alone and Forgotten

Alone and forgotten this shame mine to bear
these sorrows and burdens you say you don't care
If I could just reach you, you'd see me more clearly
if you knew my spirt, you'd let me change sincerly
The changes you can't see, cause you can't look
you judge me like God, but my wichness my Savior took
I guess you don't know him, this Jesus my friend
If only you'd search my heart, you'd find him within
He struggled so hard, pleading for my love
Finally I found him, Praise God up above
I no longer walk alone, and although your gone
I stand on my rock, till he takes me home
Written by T.S.
Why Can't You See

Why can't you see me through his loving eyes
accept me, forgive me a new creature let me be
He wants to comfort you and send you his love
renew your spirt and show you true love
I can't convince you, even tho i've tried
through words, thtough scripture, you think I lied
You want to be alone now, he won't let you though
he reaches, he touches lets his spirt flow
So he struggles again this time for your love
finds your heart hardened he prays to his father above
You don't have to walk alone yes, finally I'm gone
Bowed at my fathers feet till he brings me home.
To go 9 Months

You woke me again last night tho you were no where near
It was just to real and caused those tears of fear
We always agree our love is secure
it's just not fair
something so peaceful as sleep should make me so unsecure
I cry myself to sleep then dream myself to wake
won't spend the cost of a call even for peace of minds sake
and so my mind and heart wander thru the night
chideing and teasing laughing at such a sight
If it's not you it must be me alone
that wakes me from my crying sleep
awake again, I dream of coming home
