It may be, however, that I am too much wedded to my own views in the matter, and as I have spent nearly eight years of the hardest work of my life in this department, I respectfully request that I may now be relieved from its command.

27 Years! ! ! ! !
27 years of my life-
I lived like a wife,
waiting for my husband kiss;
Which i always missed.
27 years of my life -
Waited all the nights,
To share my happiness and sadness;
And i felt it was madness.
27 years of my life-
I spent with unknown husband,
Who has time to work;
And I felt like a jerk.
27 years of my life-
I spent with boredom,
And being a loyal wife;
I lost my freedom.
After 27 years of my life-
I still feel something missing,
I still keep looking;
And still waiting.
And the next 27 years will pass by:
Without my husband near by.

No Matter What
No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What they belive is true
No matter what they call us
How ever they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back
I can't deny what i belive
I can't be what i'm not
I know i love forever
I know no matter what
If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered
Then we would here god say
No matter what they tell you
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach you
What you believe is true
And i will keep you safe and strong
And sheltered from the storm
No matter where it's barren
Our dream is being born
No matter who they follow
No matter where the lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies aren't blue
No matter why they ended
My life began with you
I can't deny what i believe
I can't be what i'm not
I know this love forever
That's all that matter's now
No matter what
No

The space blesses
All that I did as secret
All along in my work-shed
Were by my mate the least understood.
I stand relieved.
While I was in my work-shed
She had been alone in homestead
She is relieved.
The space did the entire blessing.

10/31/2007 Command Post Controller
I work in the command post,
You wouldn’t know there everywhere from coast to coast.
We work while everyone else is wake and sleeping,
We do things that help our nations safe keeping.
No one understands the command post because,
No one fully grasps what the command post does.
Know this though,
Controllers are at work even in the snow.
Holidays we are still here,
24-7 every day of the year.
I work in the command post,
Family I miss the most.
But I don’t gripe nor complain,
I’m proud to serve I have no shame.
Next time your working your nine to five,
Remember controllers actions help keep you alive.
When you lay your head down and asleep you drift,
Remember a command post controller is still on shift.

I Will
Ooh I will always love you
You were the first to take my heart
Make me happy
At the same time make me cry
Showed me a lot of things
I never knew that I had inside
Late night phone conversations of you tellin me what you wanna do
Then wed argue all night about whos been sleepin with you
And no matter what people say
It dont change the way I feel
And no matter how much we fuse and fight
I gotta keep it real with myself
Cause as bad as I wanna leave
Its the hardest thing for me
I can keep tryin ta act like I dont care
But deep down inside I aint goin nowhere
Chorus:
I will always love you
No matter how many things
You try to do or say
Certain things just dont go away
I will always love you
No matter how many things
You try to do or say
Certain things just dont go away
You were the first to see my body body
Give me gifts and all types of real nice things
I used to tell you how much I loved you
And in return you would do the same
Ive had so many lonely days
Ever since you uped and went away
I can help but wonder where youre at
Hopin one day youll be back baby
And no matter what people say
It dont change the way I feel
And no matter how much we fuse and fight
I gotta keep it real with myself
Cause as bad as I wanna leave
Its the hardest thing for me
I can keep tryin ta act like I dont care
But deep down inside I aint goin nowhere
Chorus
Respectfully I say to thee
Im aware that youre cheating
But no one
No one
Can make me feel the way you do

The Hardest Part
And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part
Was the hardest part
And the strangest thing
was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the strangest start
I could feel it go down
It is sweet I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
I wish that I could work it out
And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part
You really broke my heart
And I tried to sing
But I couldn't think of anything
That was the hardest part
I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
You're silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
Oh and I
I wonder what it's all about
I wonder what it's all about
Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do just comes undone
And everything is torn apart
Oh and it's the hardest part
That's the hardest part
Yeah that's the hardest part
That's the hardest part

A Pack Of Lies
That from hard work and endeavour up the social rank you will rise
To me anyhow does seem a pack of lies
'Tis just an old cliche that and nothing more
That some like to quote and we have heard before.
Even in so called prosperous Countries today
Some of the hardest working people work for survival pay
Many honest and willing workers living in poverty
Life for them seems unfair that's how 'twould seem to me.
Many of who on the theory of hard work believe
Say if you do not work hard from life you cannot receive
Yet many of the billionaires of mining and property development and oil
Have never experienced the hardship of toil.
Just an antiquated cliche it does seem indeed
That those who work hardest in life do succeed
The underpaid workers create many a billionaire
For millions around the World life does seem unfair.
I know of an old bloke who has worked hard in his working life
And he struggled for to pay for the funeral of his wife
Just one more poor hard worker his type are everywhere
There are millions of them in the big World out there.

Family's Hard Times
As the time goes by,
We've passed everything together..
No matter how we did it,
We had to be together..
There were happy times we spent in our lives..
Not only the happiness we faced,
But also the pain coming to us..
Once more, no matter what it happened,
We should stay still together..
This time would be the hardest part..
When we need each other to support,
We could have those..
I know we all can face it, together..
Because,
Together we can face any difficult things in the world..
Together we can change the future..
Together will make anything better..

Let The Smile
Let the smile test the light of the day
Dispel the misconception and anger away
Life has been same since ages
We got to rise in response and manage
Only lips services may deliver nothing
You will have to sacrifice and achieve something
Frustration and anger are worst enemies
Let us keep the lamp burning with humanity
Don’t be part of any evil design
Respectfully decline and quietly resign
At least you have no direct participation
You can have sigh of relief in anticipation
Love to live in honorable way and with peace
That may make your way relatively at ease
You can avoid some of the show offs skillfully
Life is to be led as per choice and truthfully
We may not want to leave behind any kind of bitterness
Life is to be spent in harmony with satisfaction on the face
It is for the short span and not given any firm date
God only knows when time will run out by fate
So to think big and do nothing is crime
It may not take you any where sometimes
You will be exposed and loose the prestige
So don’t make it contentious any time please
Life may have many ups and downs
Some of the facts we have to inherit and own
Success or failure may come later on
But surely it will be made clear and known
Miracles do take place but not when needed
Some thing good can happen only when something is conceded
Life is to be adored and with some principles wedded
It can’t be simply sold for nothing or traded

Your Absence Has Made My Heart Grow Fonder
No matter what those arguments.
Or the exchanging of a bitterness meant.
Without you in my life,
I've spent...
Countless hours fighting against,
Those moments I felt such an emptiness.
Knowing...
Your absence has made my heart grow fonder.
No matter if it is pouring rain,
I can't help but remember...
Your laughter that still remains.
And even though when living together,
That smile of yours would seldom show.
I know...
Your absence,
Has made my heart grow fonder.
And always will I remember when,
You walked out the door!
And I was left relieved,
As if blown with a fresh wind...
To begin my life without you again!
To experience complete happiness,
I had not known since way back when.
And one that has stayed to comfort me.
Yes...
I can certainly say without regrets,
Your absence has made my heart grow fonder!

Work
Work is what we have to do
to put food on the table
we work for years and years
that is until we are unable.
We are asked at school
what we want to be?
I remember telling the teacher
that I want to play football for Coventry.
There's all types of work to do
like in an office or a building site
if your lucky you can do sport
be a Boxer and get paid to fight.
But most of us don't do that
and often we do jobs that we hate
like working in a horrible factory
starting early and finishing late.
But some workers love their jobs
and rarely ever miss a day
they enjoy being there so much
they'd probably work for no pay.
Work is a big part of life
so best do something you like
earn vast amounts of money
buy a flash car instead of a bike.
So be happy wherever you work
no matter what job that may be
but most of us want to retire early
that's why we keep on doing the lottery!

After School (Villanelles)
Don’t think that school’s the hardest time in life.
You will graduate soon but don’t forget.
Believe, Believe do not end it in strife.
Some people will deal with it with a knife,
Because they are scared to try to forget.
Don’t think that school’s the hardest time in life.
Others might get rich and have a good life,
But it could end up in a huge regret.
Believe, Believe do not end it in strife.
Few may stay single in Gods way of life,
They will find happiness they won’t forget
Don’t think that school’s the hardest time in life.
Most have a fine job and a loving wife.
Someone to go home to and be a set
Believe, Believe do not end it in strife.
For you who don’t take the bad way in life,
Will be happy and never have regret.
Don’t think that school’s the hardest time in life.
Believe, Believe do not end it in strife.

Fresh Dirt
They were relieved!
They had finally found something negative,
To hold against me.
I was relieved too.
They can finally find something to do with their lives.
They had been searching for years.
I did the best I could to leave some dirt on the surface.
I had to redo most of it.
Since I wanted them to find fresh dirt.
And an opportunity to do 'something' else,
Before they ran out of time...
To at least catch up with it!
And I'm still accused of being thoughtless.
I can't believe it!
And that dirt was at least three or four years old.
Well...
It was the best I could do!
