Looking at the clouds thinking why am I alive
What's my perpose
Why was I born
The truth is no one knows the real reason
You were born but you don't know why
Some people love life some people. Ask why and some people end there life
Life is what you make it out to be
You can have the best. Life or the worst its up to you make it
People say the reason they have a bad life because there childhood but even if
you had the worst its up to you o change it
What's your perpose?
I have no clue!
This life our fights, this just isnt rite
were so far lost out of sight,
Cant determine who is wrong and
who is right,.I sit and wonder where
we went wrong, and how did i get
this far gone.
I try to be strong but this life just
keeps tossing us back down after
reaching the top, this love we
have will never be forgot,
And you've taught me more about
myself than i even knew,
you showed me how love is about
truth so together we grew.
I woke to my new life today
Happy and free for a change
It feels so good to be alive
And have the man of my
dreams by my side
Supporting me in all that I do
Unconditional love along the
way
This is the place I want to stay
So many things in life to see
and do
I'm so lucky all my dreams
have come true
Love and laughter along the
way
20 & 1 will be our day
I love this man with all my life
And one day he will make me
his wife
No regrets what so ever
Sharing our love for one
another
Happy times ahead of us
Walking through life with just
us
Just because a star explodes,
Doesn't mean its gone,
This catalyst of life unfolds,
And then has to move on...
To spread itself to what may be,
Until it has a chance,
Becoming the complexity ,
That waits for circumstance...
And when the right conditions rise,
The only thing remains,
Is subject to the compromise,
Of life and death the same...
Till everything we touch and see,
That burned within the sun,
Becomes the part of you and me,
Connecting us as one...
Just because a star explodes,
So violent in the end,
Only means what is bestowed,
Creates more life again...
the depth of life had drawn
me
and sunk me deep down,
under the sea.
I had driven my way
through, and never thought
it will cease fore-gone,
forever.
It had seems, yet I see
I doubt counting days with a
wife,
I failed days and yet won
grace,
I had wronged choice and
still it yields rights,
Had it been without God,
where will I be?
I had seen something before
yesterday,
i have been alone even up
today,
what has that got to do, in
the name of me?
Once back in life again,
The road to my Lord was at
night,
I lead my ways with the
stick...
It has neither been ashamed
nor blessed.
But I got my way beyond a
blind life.
I wake up a morning with a
plan
and went ahead to learn,
far away to my mum's land,
and that was why Am away
from town.
so many words I got in me,
piece shorts of says,
bountiful meaning of damn
rays,
and all I need was your
prayers in good ways.
I began to spell
and wrote many like I tell..
help, here I yelled
and now its all well.
I had something picking...
and then I was kicked,
I thougth life was ****...
and it came down to my fit,
I wonder why repained...
and it went in vain,
I gain at long last...
and today falls in this day.
sometimes I wonder,
many atime I feared,
at times I felt alone,
where is my life heading me
to?
I thought that I was here before
i may have passed this way
It all looks so familiar
The returning of a day
Like a moment of forever
Frozen here in time
Another life revisited
But is it really mine?
I feel as if I have been here
I have visited for sure
The familiar air about me
Like the tide returning to shore
Could it be me I am here to find
On this journey alone
To seek a space familiar
A place one might call home
Perhaps I should take a ride
To find what lives within
For there will never be an ending
Till I know where to begin
It seems I have walked this road
In another space in time
The evening light will illuminate
This life forever mine
I am dancing with remembrances
Walking with a memory
Is this another person
Disguised so well as me?
This song it sounds familiar
A sweet haunting melody
I stand in a place revisited
But is it really me? ?
Impermanence
A reading from a Buddist book,
A template oft abused, mistook,
Concerned with life n dying.
To see you on a narrow ledge,
Your toes a gripping last vestige.
Half inch of grip applying.
Your are over the great abyss.
A thousand feet deep it is,
Water beckons rocks theris
No I’m not a lying.
Holding 2 handfuls of grass,
Goats beard grip, a slipping fast,
Rat’s nibble your grassy blades,
Slowly slipping down to Hades,
you must keep a trying!
Impermanence of life the lesson here,
Be sorting out who pays,
Rats eat each single blade of grass,
Must right your wrongs today,
Be thoughtful of applying.
Fear not brave warrior, of the Styx.
For I will there, be with you.
Though we carry subtle bricks,
pain and misery very thick,
In spirit we are flying!!!

Having read of Padmasambhava’s “Karling Shitro “
spell checker didna like word shitro
Some say life is just a lesson
Maybe, one I should have thought out
Instead I keep on guessin'
Trying to feel my heart out
and it's crushed under the pressure
Trying to figure out where I'm at
Like I would even know the difference
If you were to tell me any better
That life is just a lesson
and goodbye is just a letter
Take the rope, boy, pull the hawser hard,
The knot must sit firm and tight.
Remember, we sailed by starlit skies
as the sea took us far from cradling coasts,
far from the sheltering bays and beaches
To where no earth scent reaches
The salt-stained sea-spattered air;
And the gulls, oh, the gulls, sailed
High and morose,
In their flight no memory of land.
Pull harder, boy, harder, and show me your strength,
Pull hard on that hawser with all of your might!
We lived on fish so easy to catch,
Of man they knew nothing,
The virgin shimmering tufted blue
The sky a wan, unearthly hue,
And we sailed and we sailed
Till the limp skies paled,
Till the night gathered round
And the world had no sound.
That’s it! Yes! I feel the ship berthing,
Earthing, and my head so light!
We lived the waves’ unruly heave,
The lurching slapping lapping swagger,
We drew lines between the stars
And danced our eyes on dead horizons,
We lived the stunned torpor of water
When the wind slept its sudden sleep.
We lived beyond life for far too long,
And long now for life once more.
So heave to, my boy, I'll jump ashore,
It takes but a moment to snuff the light.
To get up and leave everything behind, just jet,
to tell the adventures of your life, that haven't happened yet.
Just leave and be who ever you want to be,
to live through your own eyes and see.
Leave the past behind you and go,
to a place where you don't know.
Giving up worrying, guilt, and all the curses,
be free and the master of your universes.
You take a couple pairs of clothes and your bike,
do what you want and nothing you dislike.
To go and ride along the highway,
being content to be astray.
Give up your computer and cell phone,
bouncing from town to town like a stone.
Never knowing where tomorrow is,
taking in life and all it's experiences.
Completely release yourself and be king,
to own life as if it were a tangible thing.
Your own personal Heaven in this place,
and you have nothing, but time and space.
I've had a dream...
Or so it should seem.
To those who knew better...
So've lived life to the letter.
I've had such the dream...
Or so it would seem.
Of fancy and fine dance...
I've had then mine chance.
Oh I've had my dream...
Yes indeed it should seem.
Of Kings and such Queens as none ever seen...
Oh yes Oh yes, this thus then my dream.
Now, now, now hath time so run...
Then, then, 'twas naught but sheer fun.
How, how, decades gone thus...
For thought I'd ever, life 'twas no rush.
Yet do I wonder at marvel of all.
Continues such still my mind to enthrall...
Carry now I such thoughts to beyond...
As few men so do... yet as so many are fond.
So now it doth seem I've long lived my dream.
Freedom its name given ago by such same...
That of which I now do smile and so frown...
For days long gone never again to be found.
Nay nay not so, not so to be sure.
Dreams are forever, this must be known...
Life lived thusly so everlastingly pure...
Eternity from seeds then well early sewn.

I grab my paddle and life vest
To do the thing that I like best
I put it in the Puget Sound
And ride my kayak all around
I take it out for exercise
I roll it over should it capsize
I’ve paddled it far off the shore
I’ve paddled near orcas before
My kayak and I go far
To places you can’t reach by car
In the shell I carry things
That any other camper brings
I have a kayak I use for fun
It’s a single, built for one
I have another made for two
Big enough for me and you
If you’d like to give it a try
I’ll make sure that you stay dry
Sit up front, the view is clear
I’ll sit in back so I can steer
Some like cars and some like planes
Some like bikes and some like trains
But for the ride that I like best
I grab my paddle and life vest
I don't care what people think of me
I live my life the way I think I want to live it
So I keep telling myself to set off all my alarms
Give my self some time to think
Think that I have a good life
Think that I did the best I can to keep myself happy when others were unable to
but I guess that was not good enough for you
If you wanted me so bad then you should of tried harder
Now that I am back to the normal self
I will go back to not caring what other's think of me
I will go back to being the soccer star again
I will go back to being happy and not sad because you always hurting me
Just because you were not happy with your life does not mean I have to be unhappy too.
I like to live life the way I want
Walk and not know where I am going
I just know that it is a new adventure calling my name
away from everyone who wants to make me unhappy
well hate to break it to you
No one will make me unhappy again
As long as I live I will try my best to keep the sun shining and people smiling
sometime's we belive in so much that we forget the real truth's
we want to just belive in anything that would hold our heart's together.
all our joy's and outcome's in a world of untold lie's.
i touch your hand in mine today as i had day's before but today it felt like of no other day
before . you had a coldness in your hand that showed upon your face
is this goinga be the day our lives will fall outa place?
tell me now do we start all over tell eachother lie's, or come clean and make a new start.?
we been as friend's as husband and wife ,as mother as father and intered this life we've
gave eachother our soul's hope's and dream's now were weak with lie's in between can we
stand together and show this world that true love and life can makw a good world ?
over come this hurt inside and start a new life with my beautiful husband or wife.
