Remember, the storm is a good opportunity for the pine and the cypress to show their strength and their stability.

Strong
This agony will not go
This agony will not show
I put on a face
So no one knows
The lonely in my heart will not go
The lonely in my heart will not show
I gave you all that i could
And it still was no good
You left me cold and alone
But in the end it will be home
This smile on my face will stay
The warmth you see is going to show
I will prevail and you will fail
Im over and done with you
My strength and intelligence is to good for you
The time with you was a waste
I wish i had better taste
My strength will never go
My love will always show

Ode to the bird in the cypress tree
Ode to the bird in the cypress tree
~
I wish to be like the bird in the cypress tree
shaded from the heat of the midday sun
yet still free to ride upon the ocean breeze
whenever it chooses to blow from time to time
I wish to be like the bird in the cypress tree
and chirp my own little song aloud to the world
or to fly amongst the clouds so high above
and look down to watch the world below
I wish to be like the bird in the cypress tree
for all my wishes and day bought dreams
I am here and I am still me writing a poem
about that lucky bird perched in the cypress tree

As the Pine Cypress tree would say
I want to be like the Cassia tree-
The Cassia tree by the river side
I want to be like the Cassia tree
firmly rooted in the soil inside
so when the winds play its tune of tempest
I will sway left and right as it would have me sway
Sway and not break or lose a footing
as the pine cypress tree would say
I want to be like the Cassia tree-
The Cassia tree by the riverside
I want to be like the Cassia tree
firmly rooted in the soil inside
so when the clouds gather and dress the sky in
dark clothing, for the ritual of the rain
I will stand its pour to the rage of the thunder
Stand and not break or lose a footing
as the pine cypress tree would say
Opurtunity
Opportunity
Loss it seems is the worst kind of sorrow
Loss of a dream
Loss of a person
But what of the loss of opportunity
Opportunity for a dream
Opportunity for time with a person
Can not having the chance of loss
Be worse than loss itself
More prominent
More painful
An aching sense that if only you’d had the chance
You would at least have memories
Good
Bad
Would it matter as long as you could remember
Loss it seems is the worse kind of sorrow
But worse still is the loss of opportunity

You will surely die!
Opportunity what is that?
Is it bad or good?
Is a relationship with another
Person an opportunity to grow or to die...
As in I wish I were dead.
A woman is indeed a rare, rare opportunity
And if you ever get the chance to meet such
An opportunity...
And mistreat her, you will surely die.
A woman is the cradle of life...
She is a pandora box...
She is also a fox.
A woman is awake up smile
A mother to a child
A doctor or lawyer when she need be...
She was created for the world and me.
So an opportunity to be in the company of woman is rare.
God created such perfection there...emotional perfection.
Woman is an opportunity of good will...
Still.

Hand on the Glock
cypress hill
cypress hill
cypress hill
Crusing through the neighborhood
Some say I'm no good
Claimin I'm a criminal
But lets make it understood
Just one man man with a whole lot of homeboys (whole lot)
Ya get the click of the glock
When I pull of the chrome toy
Check me and I'll check you back (check you back)
Then jump back
to my big Buddah
like I'm not a bad guy
But don't take advantage
I'm throwin out the garbage
just show me where the can is
All I was doin was searchin for the boon
Then some punk tried to hit me with a broom
Lucky I ducked quick
Or else I'd be assed up
Last thing I wanted
was have to pull the gatt out
here comes a nigga
And he's got a .38
Well my roundhouse said
hey yo
I'm shootin up straight
Cuz I put away the shotgun
borrow me a glock
Took a liitle trip to the funky weed spot
tried to jack me
but home got shot
la-la-la-lalala-la!
Understand where I'm commin from
Self defense turns to the offense
(right

Ill Rememberme From With Honors
Mmmm, mmmm
Say good-bye to not knowing when
The truth in my whole life began
Say good-bye to not knowing how to cry
You taught me that
Chorus (first time substitute strength for love and saved for changed):
And Ill remember the love that you gave me
Now that Im standing on my own
Ill remember the way that you changed me
Ill remember
Inside I was a child
That could not mend a broken wing
Outside I looked for a way
To teach my heart to sing
(chorus)
I learned to let go of the illusion that we can possess
I learned to let go, I travel in stillness
And Ill remember happiness
Ill remember [Ill remember]
Mmmmm... [Ill remember]
Mmmmm...
(chorus)
[Ill remember]
No Ive never been afraid to cry
Now I finally have a reason why
Ill remember [Ill remember]
(repeat 3 times, substituting and for now the second and third times)

The Strength To Say Good-Bye
Even though I seem quiet and shy
I have a strength inside of me
I have the strength to say good-bye
If a friend had always been a lie
I would be heartbroken but I realize
I have the strength to say good-bye
Even if someone precious to me dies
My soul will be crying but give me time
For I have the strength to say good-bye
When my soul is lost and I want to cry
Over time I shall heal, for I know that I
Still have the strength to say good-bye

Nights In Estoril
Written by christine mcvie and eddy quintela.
Well there will be times
When the memories fade
There will be words weve said
We just cant take away
Im only saying
That as time goes sailing on
Nothing is forgotten baby
Nothing is really gone
I remember the nights in estoril
A kiss and oh the never ending thrill
And I remember the coming storm
Oh and you my ove, how you kept me warm
Well there will be times
When we cant agree
We cant help but see things
A little differantly
Im only saying
That as time goes sailing on
How can something so right
Ever be wrong
I remember the nights in estoril
A kiss and oh the never ending thrill
And I remember the coming storm
Oh and you my love, how you kept me warm
Your hand reaching out to me
Dark clouds gathering in their wake
Ive seen it all before
But Ive never felt it more
This time there is no mistake
Oh I remember
And I remember the coming storm
Oh and you my love, how you kept me warm
I remember the nights in estoril
A kiss and oh the never ending thrill
And I remember the coming storm
Oh and you my ove, how you kept me warm
I remember
Remember...

Before Exile
HERE is my last good-bye,
This side the sea.
Good-bye! good-bye! good-bye!
Love me, remember me.
This is my last good-bye,
This side the sea.
I bless, I pledge, I cling,
Love me, remember me.
This is my last good-bye
To each dear tree,
To every silent plain,
Love me, remember me.
This is my last good-bye,
This side the sea.
O friends! O enemies!
Love me, remember me.
You will remain, but I
Must cross the sea.
My heart is faint with love,
O Land! remember me.
You will not even ask
What claim has she.
She loved us, she has gone…
’Tis all, remember me.
This is what you will say,
My Land across the sea,
She was of us, has gone…
And you’ll remember me.
Here is my last good-bye
This side the sea.
Farewell! and when you can,
Love me, remember me.

Thanks for inspiration
Thanks for
Making the difference in my life
giving life for my dream
Thanks for
a quality of strength, the development of self responsibility at length
Thanks for
giving stability and intellect contributing to success
a strength of self-direction, achievement more than less
Thanks for
being the keeper of dreams
pleasing a lot using good judgment
teaching for learning
Thanks for
being tough minded but tender hearted
showing enthusiasm even when you don't feel like it
Thanks for
keeping your promises, giving your best
your wisdom and courage
being punctual and insisting on it in others
providing creative solutions
Thanks for
avoiding the negative and seeking out the good
doing more than is expected
never giving up on what you really want
remaining open, flexible, and curious being a friend
Thanks for
being a student's hero
being a dream maker

My mark
I don't want you to cry on last day
I don't want you to cry tears of sadness
I want you to cry tears of joy
Cry cause because you remember the good things I use to do here on earth
I want you to remember my smile
My jokes
My T L C
I want you to remember me as a fighter
I want you to remember me as the most sweetest person
I want you to remember me as someone who always made you feel good
I want you remember me as the friendliest person
I want you to remember me as the person who use to light up the room
I want you to remember me
As a nice smelling perfume
I want you to remember me
As a hereon
I want you to remember me
As the most craziest person
Not in bad way but in good way
That is why I worked so hard
To became a good person
In order for you to have lots of good memories about me n less bad memories
I want to be remembered as person who left a really good mark

Opportunity
Opportunity, it is said,
knocks but once.
Opportunity, sometimes
knocks a few times.
The gospel truth is,
Opportunity's frequency is erratic.
Opportunity is a windfall,
in true truth a one-off affair.
This explicitly explains why
To the wise the plausible option,
is to grab the first opportunity.
Striking when iron is hot
Sparing oneself the guilt
Of not grasping an opportunity,
When it itself, presents.
Opportunity to the fool,
knocks when requested.
It is there to be clasped,
when really required.
No doubt missed opportunity,
is the facet of a fool.
Be wise, act rationally
Be guided by the reasoning
The time- tested saying
‘opportunity, knocks but once'.

Weather the Storm
It's okey
it's going to change
everything passes
you'll get through it
don't look back
learn as you live
there'll come a time
another day
takes away the troubles
so hang in there
and weather the storm
When things get rough
just stand still
you will find strength
when you remember
''it's okey
it's going to change
everything passes
you'll get through it ''
The worst times
turn to good times
everybody knows
ends bring
new beginnings
''it's okey
it's going to change
everything passes
you'll get through it''
Listen in
to the confusion
there'll come a time
another day
will take away
your troubles
so hang in there
and weather the storm

Show Me
Show me the man who is lost in the forces of love
Show me the man whos sad dreams just wont fade away
Show me the doors where I dont understand what it is
I would show you a man who is lonely
I would show you a man who is lost and afraid
Show me the children who remember their own father now
Show me the children who just dont sleep anymore
Show me the days where I dont understand what it is
I would show you a child who is lonely
I would show you a child who is lost and afraid
Everybody seems to loose their sense in what the believe in
Misunderstanding what is true
Any one in love can realize that all you need
Is to be good to yourself
To be good to yourself
Show me a world without life, without hope anymore
Show me the days weve forgotten all the songs that we sing
Today is the day I can see what its all really for
I would show you a man he would dance for love
I would show you a man he would love to love
I would show you a man he would dance for love!
I would show you a man he would love to love!
I would show you a child who has everything
I would show you a child who has everything
I would show you a child who has everything
I would show you a child who has everything
