May your days be filled with laughter
and your heart be blessed with love
May you find all that you are after
With sweet blessings from above
May it be your dreams are answered
With all hope they will come true
May you find a little sunshine
In all the things you do
May you see a million sunsets
And count a billion stars
See your world from deep within
And visit from afar
May you be blessed with all the love
Two love struck people can share
May you share a million heartbeats
Each one saying how much you care
May you dance beside the ocean
Wind soft melodies touching the shore
With eyes illuminated in the night
Reflections of the one you adore
May your life be fruitful
your love simple and pure
let it live within you
Far beyond forever more
May your love be like a garden
Where each nurtured flower can grow
Attended to with loving care
More then you will ever know
May every day be special
Each moment a treasured memory
With all the love that you deserve
all that you hope it may be
You asked me the other day
why I cared
about a wretched soul like you
And all that I really could say
is that you needed a friend like me
Who would stand beside you on any
given
day to remind you that I do care about you
And that I support you no matter what you do
Because I have been where you are today
and I want to remind you that there will be
many bumps in the road in your journey
So don’t beat yourself up so bad
and
keep hurting yourself like you have
Because I don’t ever
want anything
bad to happen to you
Just be thankful that you
have someone like me
That will stand by your side to help you
get through the bumps
in the road because I do care about you
I don’t care what you think, I only care what I think.
It took me a while to think the way that I think.
So it is imperative that you change the way that you
think.
When I started thinking the thoughts that I think,
every negative thought that I used to think began
to shrink, shrink and shrink. So for me to think
what you want me to think, guess what I don’t
think so.
This is what I say about conformity
What an absurd abnormality
Why would I want to be like them
When I feel great about who I am
I don't care if they like me or not
Just as long as they give me a fair shot
People are out for nothing but money and fame
I cannot believe they have no shame
Don't strive to fit in with the crowd
And try to make others proud
Be yourself and stand out
And then you will have no doubt
That the people aroudn you are true and real
They actually care what you think and feel
I think one thing about conforming
This is something we should start reforming
Who will care for the child that
Has no family
Who will care for the child
Born in poverty
Who will care for the child that
Is insecure
Who will care for the child
Abused behind closed doors
Who will care for the child
Born with HIV
Who will care for the child
That lives in you and me
I can strive to do my best.
I do not regret life.
I care for my own and others
Never shall I forget those I love
I shall forgive
Never
Let us view the other side
I fail at everything I do
I hate my life as it is
I don't care for anyone
I will forget those I love
I shall harbor revenge
always
Let us read it once fully through
Now, we will read it backwards
Always
I shall harbor revenge
I will forget those I love
i don't care for anyone
I hate my life as it is
I fail at everything I do
Never
I shall forgive
Never shall I forget those I love
I care for my own and others
I do not regret life.
I can strive to do my best.
