Hopefully
Life is never a bed of roses ??
But live your life anyways
And make it beautiful at
Every given opportunity
If you can
Is a free world they say
So We either live or die to live
But live your life anyways
The journey the experiences the feelings the moments
All will come and go
But the memories of your life
will always reflect or be declined
But live your life anyways
Just or unjust
Who is to judge
Your destiny is in your hands
Hopefully ????
Been walking towards the moon.
I won't be getting there soon
Following to wherever it may lead
Beyond greed
Beyond the need of strife
A simple life
I seek to find
Hate left behind
A heart so kind
Cause I feel the need
Of a soul freed
Sailing through the sky
Thought I could fly
At least I could try
My heart let me down
I refused to drown
I choose
Not to break loose
Keeping myself grounded
It sounded
Reasonable at the time
Living lost in some rhythm
No tear shall I cry
As time passes bye
From young to old
My body starts to fold
Still, I follow the light
It burns so bright
Never letting it go
Basking in its glow
Cause I know
As long as I live
There's so much left to give
Can't say nope
I keep holding on to hope
It's my only rope
Facing each day
Following the way
Closer than ever before
Towards my time to soar
A heart set free
The peace that be
Tomorrow
No sorrow
Made my way
Through each day
Sometimes,
In some rhythms
It takes two
The heart so true
Lost in some yesteryear
I got past the tears
Even on my own
Remembering all I was shown
My heart has grown
I know today
love is the only way
I'm not trying to open up Old Wounds
oh hash up any ill feelings
I just want to know that you're okay
Countless times I've wanted to reach out
times I wanted to see your face
hear your voice know your ok
Just didn't want to cause you pain
It's hard trying to let this thing be
when all I wanted was you and me
And I know it's not fair
I called it off so how could I dear
Still doesn't fill the hole in my heart
When I think of you And all you are
I wish you well
I'll let this be
no more contact at least for me
Just know that I loved you
I still do
time doesn't erase this feeling
No not from me
hopefully not from you
I let it slip away
My first marriage...that is
For reasons why
Well, that's none of your biz
But I will tell you one thing
I would do it again
Just as sure as the ink flows
From the point of my pen
I let it slip away
My second marriage...to date
Twice was enough
Some of you can relate
Would I marry again
Send out the alarm
You know what they say
"Three times is a charm"
Will I let it slip away
With the new women I had choose
Truth, be it told
The lord only knows
Hopefully not,
I loved her so
I loved her so
I love her so...

My foolish heart holds on to hope,
Someday I too will find my love,
Only because of that, I cope
With each day’s reality shove;
Someday I too will find my love,
Together we shall build our home,
With each day’s reality shove,
My life’s still etched in monochrome;
Together we shall build our home,
Raise a wonderful family,
My life’s still etched in monochrome,
Though soon hues will bloom happily;
Raise a wonderful family,
A whole new future awaits me,
Though soon hues will bloom happily,
I await God’s time and decree;
A whole new future awaits me,
Only because of that, I cope,
I await God’s time and decree,
My foolish heart holds on to hope.

Hopefully on that day
My soul grew by the grave
For I saw the tombs the storms
I walk my passions even stoked
Marvel eye the lively tree hopefully
Hopefully death shall bring improvements
Life's deep into that darkness
Supporting that moment my soul grew nice
When all my wrongs forgiven rights
Marvel I the remorseful forgiveness hopefully
I live long I live on
I not died I live for I fly away, fly away alive I fly away home
Hopefully hopefully, reborn

Holidays nowadays
families visit with
Face Time or What's App for
sharing their love.
Pray our next healing phase
incontrovertibly
orders vaccine to give
Covid a shove!
Wishfully, thankfully,
hope expects holidays-
just like old times, we'll be
close- face to face.
Each of us, cheerfully
unconditionally
kissing and hugging with
long shared embrace.

WRITTEN WORDS BY James Edward Lee Sr. 2020©
I 'm in the tunnel vision;
O' I'm hopefully found;
My spirit has legions;
I am sound;
Oh, oh, oh, O' oh
Oh, oh, oh, O' oh
I'm in tunnel vision, and I got feelings;
Spiritual feelings that I'm sound
O' I am, I am hopefully found;
I'm in delusion;
Found an intruder;
Castrated umbilical cord;
No longer a baby anymore;
Once lost;
Now I've even the score;
Twice lost forever found;
Repented no longer slave to sin anymore, anymore
I'm not delusional;
Won't be an intrusion, no;
I so cut my ties, woo;
To the father of lies, oh, oh;
No longer a sinner,
Now I'm a beginner, woo oh;
You see I am saved by Jesus;
Christ saving grace;
No longer bound, I, I, I, I'm-
Hopefully found;
I'm in delusion;
Found an intruder;
Castrated umbilical cord;
No longer a baby anymore;
I 'm in the tunnel vision;
O' I'm hopefully found;
My spirit has legions;
I am sound;
Oh, oh, oh, O' oh
Oh, oh, oh, O' oh
You see I am saved by Jesus;
Christ saving grace;
No longer bound, I, I, I, I'm-
Hopefully found;

From Anthology " GOD YOU ARE MORE THAN A SONG "
humble hope hears hopefully
hope happens happily
happy hope helps hopefully
hope holds hastily
helpful hope handles hurriedly
hard hope hits hurtfully
humble- humble hope hears hopefully

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr.2020©
Stuck in a room that's dimly lit,
Three doors closed, lock and key,
May I find the wits, or tools around me,
To open (a) way to the light that I see
