The Benefactor
It's not to benefit, but to bring hope when there is no hope.
It's a quote that reminds of some dear friend of you loss by tragedies end.
It's to inspire and teach.
It is to say please let this not be beyond my reach.
It's a love and passion.
No need of it from self gratification.
It is to vent, repent, and confess to those who know nothing of you.
It's an outlet so strong, that it can reach anyone!

Hope May
Hope comes like a shining light
Hope comes when there is no way in sight
When you lose your heart you lose it all
But Hope is always there to catch you when you fall
When you think you can go on no more
Just hang on you never know what Hope has in store
Hope may bring someone new
Hope may bring someone you choose
Hope may bring a new friend to you
Hope may every say “this person needs a friend to”
(January 31,1987 age 15)
Reach Out, I'll Be There
Now if you feel that you can't go on
Because all your hope is gone
And your life is filled with much confusion
And happiness is just an illusion
And the world around is tumblin' down
Darling, reach out
Come on, girl, reach out, for me, reach out for me.
I'll be there with the love I'll shelter you
I'll be there with the love I'll see you through
When you're alone and about to give up
'cause your best just ain't good enough
And you feel the world has grown cold
And you're driftin' on all on your own
When you need a hand to hold
Darling, reach out
Come on, girl, reach out, for me, reach out for me.
I'll be there with the love I'll comfort you
I'll be there with the love I'll see you through
I'll be there now baby you can always count on me
Reach out baby
I can tell the way you hang your head
You are alone now, and you're afraid
Through your tears you look around
But there's no peace of mind to be found
I know what you're thinking
You're alone now, with no love of your own
Darling, come on girl
Reach out for me
Reach out for me
I'll be there with the love I'll shelter you
I'll be there with the love I'll comfort you
I'll be there now baby, you're always a friend of me
I'll be there with the love I'll comfort you
No, run to me
Cause I'll be there, baby
I will always shelter you
When you feel like you can't go on

Holding on to hope
I try to hold on to hope, but unclenched
My hands are empty, bleary eyes
Gaze over a barren desert, my fingers reach out
To meet swirling emptiness and fall back, at a loss!
Where do I find that hope,
Which infused my being, not so long ago,
How do I guild this broken throne,
When its foundations have slipped away
How do I hold on to hope?
After love’s eternal river, has changed course
And now flows, away from me
Hope, yes hope is what I need!

Three Friends
I have three friends that are feeling low today;
one is because the weather is bad
and the upheaval of a move,
making them depressed and sad.
Another who’s life is in turmoil,
being tossed by a mind full of doubt,
and the last feels the loss of love,
that almost made them
tall enough to reach the clouds.
Each holds theirs sadness dear,
looking for a sympathetic ear,
each are out of reach of my hands,
which wishes to comfort them all.
My voice is at a loss for words to console,
these three friends of mine.
If I could stretch out my arms,
far away I would be able to touch their soul,
show them that someone does care,
that in their hour of need,
a friend is here for them.
I do not need to say their names,
my friends know who they are,
they also know that if they need me,
I’m not really that far,
to listen even if I can’t be there,
for that’s what good friend are for,
to be there for them in a time of need.

Reaching God
I want to reach God
Could I reach with pray
Could I reach with people
Or will I only grasp an empty void
I want to reach God
Should I hang on my hope
Should I hang on my work
Or will I put my soul into sacrifice
I want to reach God
It seems the words become ashes
It seems the world becomes dust
And I turn to another hypocrite man
I want to reach God
Maybe I'll never really catch even a feather of wing
Maybe I'll never really get the meaning
But my heart always looking for something more
I want to reach God
My body maybe sated by the joy of earth
My mind maybe conquered by the pleasure of power
But inside nothing else could fill this hunger

Were There Hope
I was never in a league of noble gentlemen
To whom she'd cast polite and flitting smiles,
Only distant hope and dying dreams for me!
Or perhaps descent into a game of wiles
To give a chance of sipping wine on heady nights
With her angelic presence to declare;
Above, an aura playing out hypnotic hues,
And I in awe of blonde cascades of hair.
But no! my tiring soul is sinking in a mire
To haunt me for an age and evermore, for
How could I expect to hold her silken hand
When I am but a soulless ghost of yore?

Endless Flight
Writers: andrew gold
Keep me steady
Dont rock me all around
Lord, I dont wanna fall down
Understand me
I wish this jet was off the ground
Look around you
And tell me what you see
Are you afraid or is it me?
I hope we make it
I hope we dont fall in the sea
And its gonna be an endless flight
Until we reach the ground tonight
Yes its gonna be an endless flight I know
Like a flyinbird in the night
The wind is strong but I hope Im right
An this will be the end of this endless flight
Make me happy
Just let me see the light
I hope the runway time is near
The look the captain gave
Wasnt comfort and saw fear
Oh, what a fear
And its gonna be an endless flight
Until we reach the ground tonight
Yes its gonna be an endless flight I know
Like a flyin bird in the night
The wind is strong but I hope Im right
An this will be the end of this endless flight
And its gonna be an endless flight
Until we reach the ground tonight
Yes its gonna be an endless flight I know
Like a flyin bird in the night
The wind is strong but I hope Im right
An this will be the end of this endless flight
And its gonna be an endless flight
Until we reach the ground tonight
Yes its gonna be an endless flight I know
Like a flyin bird in the night
The wind is strong but I hope Im right
An this will be the end of this endless flight

Who Do You Love, I Hope
I've got the question
I've had it for days
You've got the answer, dear
I'll put the question
In one little phrase
Say what I want to hear
Who do you love I hope
Who would you kiss I hope
Who is it going to be
I hope, I hope, I hope it's me
Who do you want I hope
Who do you need I hope
Who is it going to be
I hope, I hope, I hope it's me
Is it the baker who gave you a cake
I saw that look in his eye
Is it the butcher who brought you a steak
Say that it is and I'll die
Who do you love I hope
Who would you kiss I hope
Who is it going to be
I hope, I hope, I hope it's me
[2]
I heard your question
The answer you know
Love is my middle name
You asked a question
That worried you so
Mind if I do the same
Who do you love I hope
Who would you kiss I hope
Who is it going to be
I hope, I hope, I hope it's me
Who do you want I hope
Who do you need I hope
Who is it going to be
I hope, I hope, I hope it's me
Is it the blondie who acted so shy
I heard the things that she said
Is it the redhead who gave you the eye
Say that it is and your dead
Who do you love I hope
Who would you kiss I hope
Who is it going to be
I hope, I hope, I hope it's me

Friendly Hopes
I hope
That a friend in need
Is always a friend indeed.
I hope
That the sky stays blue
And my friends always
Remain the same ones I would know.
I hope
That this earth is still round
And I’ll anywhere be found.
I hope
That my dreams are so clear
And when I wake up,
My eyes have no tear.
I hope
That your hand is in mine
And with love there passes
So much time.
I hope
That I’ll survive,
A broken heart there will be
In no time;
But I have to hope,
I am just to hope:
Hope, hope, hope
And the never ending hopes –
I am having to confirm!

Hope is a part of Life
Hope is for happiness to an ending
Hope is nothing if you don't beleive
Hope is a shooting star if you see one
Something can never end so, Hope is a part of Life
Hope is delicate from heaven to hell
Hope can't always help the gods
Hope shoudn't be about exciestence
Sometime when you're giving up on something, Hope is a part of Life
Hope can be an empty trail
Hope isn't for punishment or love
Hope is not a welcome guest
When is it that I saw you last time?
is it when we saw Hope is a part of Life
Hope can never be changed
What else that can be hope?
Hope is a passion
Hope can't always save you
Hope is something in Life that doesn't always happen everyday......

When hope is all you've got
you took everything from me
everything you could take, you took it off
but you forgot to take something from me
my hope! you can't take it from me
cos you don't even know i have it
but yes, i do
my hope never dies
my soul may be naked under the bridge
but my hope shines so bright
in such a powerfull way no one can destruct
when hope is all you've got
you can reach the stars
you can lye on the grass
and forgot about all the lies
you can dream your dreams become real
in the end,
you may have not reached a thing
but you still have something
you still have hope
even in the hardest moments in your life
when you think everyone's gone
when everything disappeared
and you think you are all alone
you still have hope
in that place where there was a heart before
and now there'r just an empty hole
when hope is all you've got
you can reach the stars
you can lye on the grass
and forgot about all the lies
you can dream your dreams are real

Outlets for wastes
Gossip is a harmless outlet.
Writing is a handy outlet.
Cursing is an easy outlet.
Vent your aggressiveness through these.

Hope...?
Hope...
Hope is to wait
Waiting for anything to make the day
Waiting for sunrise or night
Waiting for the tears to dry
Waiting for that telephone call
Waiting for the path to end
Waiting for the struggles to past
Hope...
Hope is to keep on dreaming
Dreaming of prince charming
Dreaming of the perfect life
Dreaming of Utopia
Dreaming of chance to escape
Hope...
Hope is determination
Determined to reach the goal
Determined to make the dreams come true
Determined to prove everybody wrong
Determined to push away the nos and answer with a yes
Determined to reach that 100%
But that is what i only believe
What do you see in Hope....

Hope against hope
Hope against all hope
That times will change
A word lingers
In time and place
Softly spoken
Memories bring joy
Memories bring tears
Hope against hope
That love will grow
From the embers
A single spark
Lights the fire again
Memories bring joy
Memories bring tears
Hope against hope
Time will soften
A hardened heart
A fractured mind
Bring peace to soul
Memories bring joy
Memories bring tears
Hope against hope
That this is a dream
I will wake soon
Covered in sweat
Breathing once again
Memories bring joy
Memories bring tears
Hope against hope
That tomorrow is different
Today didn't happen
But it did
Can't change today
Memories bring tears
Reach Out, Ill Be There
Now if you feel that you cant go on
Because all your hope is gone
And your life is filled with confusion
And happiness is just an illusion
And your world around is tumblin down
Darling, reach out
Reach out, for me.
Ill be there to love and confort you...(tell me baby)
Ill be there with the love Ill see you through
Now when youre lost and about to give up
cause your best just aint good enough
And you feel the world has grown cold
And youre driftin on your own
When you need a hand to hold
Darling, reach out
Reach out, for me.
Ill be there to love and confort you
Ill be there with the love Ill see you through
Ill be there to love and confort you
Ill be there to with the love Ill see you through
I can tell you the way I hang your head
Now with out of love , now youre afraid
And through your tears you look around
But theres no peace of mind to be found
I know what youre thinking
Witout love, now youre alone
Baby, reach out
Reach out for me
Ill be there to love and confort you
Ill be there with the love Ill see you through
Ill be there to love and confort you
Tell me baby
Ill be there to always see you through
Ill be there
Ill be there to love and confort you
Ill be there with the love Ill see you through.

Fire of Stone
limit my day of stay; I am not a stone but
a fire that close and kindle the cooled Heart
in your beautiful dream; the road comes to
dark without the light, dear someone …
long did I wish for your presence, as far
as the distance of the ocean, I travel up and
high in the blue sky I fly, just to be with
your side, dear heart …
lend me your moment, and guide my
ways to reach you, wherever pain I rejoice
for nothing will soften my heart, than to
love you deep in my soul, my dear hope my
hope …
I come to float far beyond the wrapped
in your vintage arm, and follows the breath
with you dear goodbye; that day will be the
forever you, my dear love …
flow my spark, for I will be in your fire …..

More Words
Sometimes words reach out
to help heal wounds.
Sometimes words reach out
just to claw at a feeble soul.
Sometimes words reach out
to seek help.
Sometimes words reach out
to bring life to idleness.
Sometimes words reach out
to expose a lie.
Sometimes words reach out
to undress from its truth.
Sometimes words reach out
for it needs to be spoken.

Hope (2)
Hope is what comes in the dark of the night
Hope is what whispers 'It will all be alright.'
Hope can blaze like a fire in the heart
Hope can reach across worlds set apart
Hope when lost can bring a world to the ground
Hope when forgotten can be silence amongst sound
Hope if not reached for is unlikely to be there
Hope if searched for can be found anywhere
Hope is a beacon
In a raging, stormy sea
Lighting a pathway
Leading you to be free
Hope is a ladder
From a pit full of death
An oxygen mask
Saving your final breath
Hope is a blaring sound as the world does crumble
Hope is a safe fall should you ever trip and stumble
Hope once found can stay forever, spead and grow
A protective shield against whatever life may throw
Hope is not just a shield, though
It is also the sword
The mightiest weapon one can brandish
The cheapest to hoard
Hope can split into many; strength and courage not least
Hope can be the poisoned wine in an enemy's feast
Hope, if lost, can always be regained if you believe
Hope never lets you fall, but lifts you up to achieve

Say When
No na, na na na na na na
Youre into my thoughts like a dream on the run
Youre a vision of hope in a world come undone
When the feeling is strong and you know that you love someone
Make it tonight, make it forever and a day
Baby reach out to me, baby reach out to me
And tell me when its right
Chorus:
Say when, when love can steal your soul
Say when, when love can take control
Say when, when love can make you whole
Just, say when, just, say when
Say when
I stand in the dark all alone in my room
And I stretch out these arms to a girl on the moon
Make it tonight, make it forever and a day
Baby reach out to me, baby reach out to me, come on reach out to me
And tell me when its right
Say when, when love can steal your soul
Say when, when love can take control
Say when, when love can make you whole
Just, say when, say when, say when, say when
Just say when
(guitar solo)
No na, na na na na na na
Say when, when love can steal your soul
Say when, when love can take control
Say when, when love can make you whole
Just, say when, say when, say when, say when
Just say when, when love can steal your soul
When love can take control...
