This' Should Be the Cause of Your Concern
There is nothing you can now do or say,
To make those painful things you said about me...
Vanish and go away!
Or those dreadful things done behind my back...
For a moment of laughter to slander and attack!
Did you think I would forget,
It was 'my' life you had messed with?
I haven't!
And 'this' should be the cause of your concern!
And 'how' I've been seeking revenge...
Will be the 'thing' you learn!
I'll give you a clue...
I can choose to be as evil as you!
But what would that prove?
Since I am much more creative!

Livin' In A Hut
I've got an ugly liver from drinking too much
I've got painful sliver from thinking too much
Oh I don't want to go on livin' in this rut
I think I'll go out and build me a hut but
Curiosity has got me
Tied up right back where it wants me
And all the things straight people do
Make me think I haven't got a clue
I've good a real good sense for seeking out the booze
But I can't afford to buy a pair of shoes
And when I get some cash it's already been spent
Oh

Slander
The word is out -- heads are talkin
And just like a fire ragin wild in the night,
The rumors hot, the room is rockin,
Its out of control, too vicious to fight
Two lovers split -- a heart is shattered
And out of revenge it steals through the night,
Making sure the lies are scattered
To every border of this town tonight
The words on the street, you call it truth,
I call it slander,
Times are tough, talk is cheap --
Soon theyll talk about you --
Slander
The jury splits -- undecided,
Theyre searching for clues,
My live in their hands
The hour has come, they stand divided,
The future shall judge the good and the bad
And now, theres talk on the street --
I call it slander,
I will fight this somehow
Revenge will be sweet
Slander -- like a knife in my heart --
Slander
Slander -- gonna keep us apart --
Slander
Slander c theres talk on the street
Slander -- revenge will be sweet
Slander -- Im ready to fight
Slander -- I will find it tonight
Slander -- like a knife in my heart --
Slander
Slander -- gonna keep us apart
Slander
Slander -- theres talk on the street --
Slander -- revenge will be sweet
Slander -- too vicious to fight
Slander -- wild in the night

Why You Doing This To Me? ?
Didn't I say I love you, didn't I?
Yes, You did, you did.
Then tell me why, how this happened
What I did wrong, tell me why!
Can't we just go on peace
and forget this dreadful dream?
Won't you say why you hate me, won't you?
No, I won't, I won't.
parley! !
It's no fair, I am here.
Didn't you say you like me, didn't you?
No, I didn't, I didn't.
Then please just say the word I will leave
say it, please say it.
don't slay me for this long
don't, please don't! .
I can't imagine anything!
did I say I love you, did I?
I know, yes I know you got many problems!
who doesn't have in this spiteful world!
ignoring a problem won't make it vanish
is banishing me without reason a solution?
No I won't do it, I won't, so please don't! ! !
let it eat my flesh as a bait!
how much of it is my fate?
how much of it depends on the choices I make?
how much do I have to regret for that I have made?
could I go back and change it! ? could I?
you see your face in the mirror?
how much of it will be different?
how much of it would be original?
how could you say it?
how could you say if you close your eyes?
say to stay back I will pay
I was not on a side to sway
I have got nothing to leave away
but got something, the same thing
which I had before.
I am sorry, this is the undefined moment
so I will let myself to go off.
it is such a crap to alter the things
which were laid on the lava.
but it isn't as I got nothing to feel it.
I want to talk to you,
could you come down please!
I am not gonna eat you,
I just want to talk to you! !
I promise I won't do it again,
again if then I am sick
leave for the rest.
leave for the rest in the resolution
to find not the solution but
the peace for you.
It's quite sure it could change the life
either way it is! !
so lets not worry
as it is pure, and it's sure
and it is inevitable.
come back
no, you non sense
please comeback
these are the things which would be best if you leave alone
yes it is, but it would still be there
it would be still there! !
what should I do, please say, please say...
what should I do? ? ? ?
please say, please say....
why you doing this to me, please say, please say...
why? ?
why? ?

Its Now Or Never
evil evil all around us make the
waves rush around us soft silky
things that are just the same evil thing
the tears i cry when it rains
are not a lie they are a shame
i write this poem for you
and me and the things to be
things may not make sense now
or never in this endeavor
its now or never the things we
try when we cry and laugh and lie
i come to a climax to the end to the things we've been
its now or never are very last try a helpless cry......

Regrets
I have done things wrong,
I will never forget.
But I cannot live,
A life of regret.
I am not a bad person.
But I have done bad things.
When a guitar gets broken,
You can change it's strings.
Life can be a song.
You can choose to dance.
Or you can sit in a corner.
And not take a chance.
It can be an adventure.
It can just be mundane.
You can dress it all up.
Or just leave it plain.
You can live for the moment.
You can live in the past.
You can live for tomorrow.
Or all you've amassed.
You can live for it's gifts.
You can live for it's treasures.
You can live for it's pain.
Or live for it's pleasures.
You can live it for Jesus.
Or live it for you.
You can live it for everyone.
Or just for a few.
And when it all,
Comes to an end.
Will you feel it's been true?
Or just been pretend.
Will you feel like you gave it,
Gave it your best.
Or did just what you had to.
Like all of the rest.
Did you make a difference?
Or did you blend in.
Did you look forward to where you were going?
Or stuck where you'd been?
Did you take life by the horns?
Or did it take you?
When things got real tough?
Just what did you do?
Did you sit in a corner?
Did you mope, did you cry?
Did you simply give up?
Did part of you die?
Did you fight the good fight?
Did you give it your best?
Did you go through your journey?
And complete your quest.
So live for the moment.
And never forget.
Don't let life shape you.
By what you regret.

The Things We Do
[Verse 1:]
Every day that goes by
Every moment you'll find
There's a broken heart
A tear is cried
A wish is made
That never comes true
And somewhere someone needs to be found
[Chorus:]
The things we do, the things we say
Are gentle rays of hope that touch us all each day
The things we do, the things we say
These are the greatest gifts we'll ever give away
The things we do
[Verse 2:]
Every day in this life
Every moment you'll find
A heart is healed
A dream is found
A tear is dried
And laughter is heard
And somehow someone's life will be changed by
[Chorus:]
The things we do, the things we say
Are gentle rays of hope that touch us all each day
The things we do, the things we say
These are the greatest gifts we'll ever give away
The things we do
[Bridge:]
Oh every hand that has been held
Has reached out for somebody else
In every move we make
Every day
We pass love on this way
[Chorus]

Give and Forgive
Give and forgive
And never keep a revenge
Do not forget that
The love is all that we need
To give us the courage
And the strength to forget
IT lights our souls
It guides us to shore
It frees our soul chains
It gives us the strength
To forget and forgive
when there is someone
In need to your help
Extended his hand
Don't turn your back and go
Hold his hand and help
When you see painful eyes
Are looking to you fo rhelp
Try to wipe his tears
Don't forget that even with a smile
You can save a life.

Clueless
I really don't have clue
All things I do and bad things
I do and keep it a secret can come out at any moment
The guilt built on inside hurt
Clueless
About life and things
Whatever throw and come my way
I let it make me fall down and break into pieces
I get blame for not listening and
Doing the right thing
Clueless
About what I really want to happen and see come true
I need to let my heart decision
I need keep my ears open and
Watch out for people and things
Time and years flying by so fast
I can't be
Cluelesss
Anymore and not let anyone/anything bring me down
Clueless

Haven't A Clue
I haven't a clue of what to do.
Even though I know it's true.
Anxiety fills my body through.
The thought of rejection makes me blue.
Although the thought of success pushes me to.
Should I take the chance to find romance?
Or should I just pull back from this uncertain dance?
I want it bad. I'm going mad.
If you reject me I'll feel sad.
I haven't a clue of where to go.
The coming of it seems so slow.
Massive impatience inside me grows.
Despair and hoplessness greatly flow.
If it's time how will I know?
I haven't a clue of what to say.
All the answers come in shades of gray.
I can't continue in this awful play.
It seems I'm bound to lose in every way.
I haven't a clue now what I'll do.
I guess I'll sit here like a fool.
Never moving for what's cool.
I haven't the balls to claim this jewel.
Where to go and what to do?
All I can say is I haven't a clue.

Changes
Changes
Is one thing some people hate doing
So don't be afraid
It might be something you like
So take a risk and try something new
If at end you hate
It's ok
Try something else and
Eventually you found what you good at
Some of us afraid if they make
Changes
It be bad and that they can't never take it back
So just go with the flow, be chill and relax
Just push yourself through it and
Think of happy thoughts or
Things that make you happy
You will never forget about it
Changes
Are things I hate to do
When it come to getting a boyfriend
I never took that chances and I feel guilty
So give it a chances
I learn just take that risk
No matter how nervous you are
Changes
Can be a good thing or bad thing
So remember
Just do what you comfortable with or
You can just try it
It's your choices
Changes
So if you chicken out, it's ok
Everyone is just like you once
Changes

Reckoning Day
I like the way that I make you itch
And all the reasons I give you to bitch
And how I make you wanna scream in pain
And feel your life is just a losing game
I like the way that you let me in
The way you look when the walls cave in
I like the way that your stomach knots
And how you cry for it all to stop
I like the way the you fool yourself
And make believe theres nobody else
I like the way that you stand in line
And beg salvation from the empty skies
Dont want no revenge
Aint no pay back time
It aint called getting even
Here comes the reckoning day
I like the things that you try to fake
And your face when I see you break
And that you say you will pray for me
You realize you are prey for me
I like the way you stay on attack
No matter what, I keep coming back
And how you try to hold me down
But you end up driven to the ground

We Can Never Forget
We can never forget the moment
when love came to us.
We can never forget the feeling
of being in love for the first time.
We can never forget the first heartache
and how the earth fell away beneath us.
We can never forget the first time
we did something
and how painful or how wonderful it was.
We can never forget the simple joys
that our life can brings,
nor can we forget the sadness that comes to.
Our memory stores all these things and more
to help us remember we have a life.
An essence that will live on
even when our turn comes and we are gone.

Childhood - 3
Give me back the moment
while nothing was impossible to me
give me back the moment
while i was kissed by all guys
Give me back the moment
when Mom lull to make me asleep
i cannot forget the moment
when i stole spoons of sugar from kitchen
i can not forgo the moment
flying kite to touch the sky
Can I forget when I gazed at the stars
at their twinkling light
when i gazed at the moon
thinking to be a silver dish on the sky
while i was thinking
a deep valley at the end of earth
Give me back my childhood
when i was thinking to fly
like a butterfly.
When i was trying to understand
the language of birds and crow
i weep over the crow
when snatched biscuits from my hand
My childhood was a splendid moment
when the lap of my mother
was more than any heavenly bed
My childhood was the out give of my life

Mad At God
A lot of people say that if God loves this world
Why this world is hurting this world
Children are dieing from hunger
Innocent people are getting kill
How can God allow this
You have a free choice do good or evil
What choices are you making
If you choose to do mischievous things
Then how can you blame God for the mess you're in
For those of you who are mad at God
Before you point a finger at him
Examine yourself examine your choices
It's up to you to choose what's righteous
Do you want God to kill us
For God to kill evil he has to kill us
We have all thought of evil things
For God to kill evil he has to kill us
Instead of killing us he choose to send his son
Jesus died for our sin own the cross
Give you life to Jesus let his spirit lead you
And you will desire righteousness
I used to blame God for this
I used to blame God for that
But what's the point I have a free choice
Thank you Jesus for your grace and mercy
Instead of condemning you choose to give me understanding
Now I understand the power of free will
Jesus I give you my will

When There is Mutual Agreement
Your attempt to ignore me,
As my lesson given ny you to learn
Is lacking in one key element.
Let me share with you a tip!
For that tactic to work efficiently,
To grab hold of my complete attention
I would think,
Involving my concern
Would achieve the success you are seeking.
You do want me to notice?
Right?
In the application of your method,
To make it more effective.
Getting me to notice is important.
Without my commitment
What would you achieve?
Now,
Let's see
How can I participate to make it appear,
I am not noticing?
To react in that way you are seeking from me.
Hmmm.
When you come up with that
Let me know.
And I will practice being affected emotionally.
And
While you are in the process of doing that,
I will continue to pay you no attention.
Do you see how easy things can become
To eliminate the process of headaches,
WHEN there is mutual agreement
Any and all things are possible.

Forever 17
Never thought it would be me
Living in a shouted dream
Could this be the end for me?
What I wouldn't give to have
A life to live, a day to plan
Instead I'll be forever 17
Could of lived out every dream
I could of been most anything
[chorus]
Someone wake me up
I haven't lived yet, I'm only 17
God did you forget, I'm just a baby
And I don't want to be
Forever 17
I'll never have a bed to make
A test to take, a summer day
I'll always be forever 17
I could of had a family
And clothes that worked out differently
Instead I'll be forever 17
Could I have just one more day?
Just to learn from my mistakes
[chorus]
Someone wake me up
I haven't lived yet, I'm only 17
God did you forget, I'm just a baby
And I don't want to be
Forever 17
In the matter of a moment
Life fell before my eyes
Now I'm looking at the meaning of the fear in one's life
