The Crossing Line
Split down the middle
two hearts
beat for love,
trespassing vows
that betray trust,
to find a balance
without destroying
their other halves
Two lines crossed
in secret,
betray trust
to find the balance between,
trespassed vows
Two hearts
yearning for love,
betray trust
to yearn for love
Two lovers
torn apart,
betray one another
to repair the trust
they have broken
Two loves
now irreparable,
inconsolable,
loose loves luster,
never again, to shine.

Our Epitaph
Here lies the greatest civilization ever developed upon this earth
The finest and best hope that all men could be free, self-governing
and prosperous, and that the burden of excessive toll, disease
and poverty could be lifted from the backs of men
This great civilization died not as a result of external agression,
but from internal crumbling of the character of its people
The people had become so luxury-loving and soft that they would
not exert themselves in their own defense
A malignant disease that might be described as a maudlin sympahty
for ones enemies seemed to paralyze their will
Here lies the nation that sacrificed its life in an effort to gain
the goodwill and friendship of its enemies
Here lies the people who abandoned their priceless heritage of
patriotism, religious faith and truth for the socialism that
sapped their manhood
Here lies the nation that abandoned the faith of its fathers who
had made it great; for the cynical skepticism and atheism of
its enemies
Here lies the nation that died from loss of faith in God, loss of
pride and confidence in itself, and a loss of the will to defend
itself against both its internal and external enemies
Here lies the United States

Dictators must have enemies. They must have internal enemies to justify their secret police and external enemies to justify their military forces.

An Issue of Trust
I do not allow
people
into my heart.
I do not trust them
to not
tear it all apart.
I do not trust
people
not to hurt or betray
me.
And so I protect
my heart
by locking the gate
and hiding the key.
In all of this mistrust
I can clearly see
That one I truly do not trust
is me.
God, save me! ! !
I trust myself
I know i can reach out my dreams
I trust my parents
I know how much they care and love me
I trust my friends
I know what they can do for me
I trust the night
I know the stars that shine
I trust the moon
I know its inspiration remains forever
I trust the wind
I know its winding ways
I trust the sky
I know its wonderful days
I trust the sun
I know its rising light
I trust the things I love
God, I know that all that trust may
disappoint and betray me one day.
But, only your trust save me.

Republics are created by the virtue, public spirit, and intelligence of the citizens. They fall, when the wise are banished from the public councils, because they dare to be honest, and the profligate are rewarded, because they flatter the people, in order to betray them.

Your'e Always Everywhere,
your'e always everywhere,
you're everywhere to me,
I believe in you,
When I see you,
When I kiss you,
When I need you,
When embracing you,
When you betray me,
I run to that man, .
That same man,
I run to that man,
Don't trust that man,
That man could loose his just,
Trust that man,
yeah you think,
How Ironic is life, ?
That we don't know our foes,
We really don't know,
We really don't know our beloved,
they can betray us,
loose their just,
never trust that man,
he could loose his just,
Trust what you see in your instinct's,
The superman,
You're the superman,
He's everywhere,
Even in the wilderness,
He will end your burden's,
He's not in church,
Neither in the mob,
He's loving,
He's non existence proove's his existence,
You're the man,
The soul in a man,
Kiss that man,
The noble man,
You're the man,
You're that man,
Ladies you're that man,
The winner man.
