Friend and Foe

As I walk the path my kinfolk tread
Among the tombstones of the dead
Their tortured whispers beg for peace
The end to violence,the war to cease
I am but one I quietly said
I can make no difference for you are dead
You are so wrong the voices scream
It takes but one who has a dream
Be proud and brave and plant a seed
That man will follow and you shall lead
And peace can come and fill this land
And friend and foe will walk hand in hand
Next time you walk your kinfolks path
If you listen closely you can hear us laugh
For peace has come and filled this land
And friend and foe walk hand in hand

Me

Are there sorry's left unsaid
Or I love you's gone unspoken
Are there people you have hurt
Or hearts that you have broken
Are there ones you can't forgive
Or ones you can't forget
Are there things you should have told them
But you haven't done that yet
Are there times when you are lonely
Even though you're in a crowd
Are there things you have accomplished
That at times have made you proud
For all that I have done
As far as I can see
Are the things that make me humble
And the things that make me me.
