Rise Up

Rise Up

Rise Up 
Please Stand 
Give yourself 
A chance 
You may have fallen 
You didnt get stuck 
You continued to Rise up 
Rise past your    circumstance
Rise past your faults  
Rise past your  mistakes 
Rise and do whatever it takes 
You can do it 
It's not tough
Just remember to Rise Up

Rise up ,Yes you 
You have 
Alot to do 
Even when times get tough ,
Dont stay there 
Rise up
(Repeat 1x)

Rise up
To the challenge 
Of being the better version of yourself 
You can handle it 
Rise Up 
To the top 
No matter what 
Never Stop
Rise up 
Elevate 
You cant every one with you 
Lessen your plate 
Rise above 
Do it with love 
Rise up 
Dont fall down 
If you do 
Dont hit the ground 
Bounce back 
Get on Track 


Rise up ,Yes you 
You have 
Alot to do 
Even when times get tough ,
Dont stay there 
Rise up
(Repeat 1x)


Rise up
Stay humble 
Even when you fumble 
Dont get stuck 
Continue to Rise Up


Rise up ,Yes you 
You have 
Alot to do 
Even when times get tough ,
Dont stay there 
Rise up
(Repeat until chorus fades)

In The Begining

The Tale of Artuir mac Aedan; The light of the West.

In The Begining.

Behold my son this our home of Airer Goidell
in the land of Airer Goidell in Alba.
Far from our birthland of Ulaid across the sea,
a sea ruled by Manaanan Mac Lir 
We came here following Gabran our clann chief,
in our wooden ships braving seas rough and wild,
Picts were here before us but they didnt flee,
took us in and became our friends indeed,
They were horsepeople of reknown,
gave us the skill without regret or redress,
all this began years gone past.
You my boy may not be a Ri here,
Perhaps a leader of warriors strong and skilled,
for i fear this land will be desired and fought over,
keeping it safe and secure like you would a lover,
Your still a babe who giggles and bubbles blow,
but Artair mac Aedan, you will not be slow,
to serve us well and a legend to grow.

The Cushion and the Chair-A Letter To God

The Cushion and the Chair-A letter to God By Laura Bonneville Delacroix 
What is it God that you see in me
What is it God that you want me to be
Why is it God that you believe in me
Sometimes the heartache is so great I just want to feel free
The anguish and sorrow that consume my soul
I keep praying to you to fix it all
I wear my heart upon my sleeve
The hurt so abundant I look to you to magically relieve
Why do those I love hurt so bad
this is what makes me feel so sad
So I look up to you and I yell I AM MAD
Mad at you for not fixing it all
Mad at myself that I cannot be brave and stand tall
I look up to you and ask "what is it you wanted"
while those around me continue to be haunted
Foolishly I blamed it all on you
Knowing with your great power you could fix it all too
Please Lord tell me
Tell me what to do
I am putting all my faith in you
You are the Father,the Son, the Holy Ghost 
You are the one I look to the most
I look to you to heal my heart
I thought if you didnt I would fall apart
I searched real hard to find myself
and there I sat high upon a shelf
I hide up here so no one can see
I hide inside myself waiting for God to fix me
And then it comes
It was always there
I look down and I see a chair
A chair so strong,so mighty and tall
A chair so strong to be used by all
"Just remember" God says "even I need help
so reach out your foot and take that first step
Reach down my child Reach really in depth
Not you or I can make everything better
sometimes we can just offer them a simple warm sweater
A temporary fix to those who might be cold
Now it is time for them to be bold
"You see my child I am your chair
to help maybe others to reach you up there
So my child just understand
sometimes we all need a helping hand
You are just one person
you cant take away their pain
Just be the cushion upon the chair
Let them know you and I will always be there
To give them love and comfort to ease their pain
Let those around us that hurt know we will always remain
I am the Cushion and God is the Chair
To help our loved ones from their despair....

He did it for me

He did it for you 
He did it for me
He rose from his grave to set me free 
He gave it all 
He would do it again 
He gave his life 
For my sins 
They couldn't keep him down 
Devil you cant win 
Jesus died and rose again 


He died 
He didnt stay 
He rose 
On the third day 
Jesus where do I begin 
Thank you for doing it for me over and again 

I never knew grace was granted me
I didn't know that  having faith in you would set me  free
I never knew my  problems you would carry them all 
Be there to catch me when I fall 
You were whooped with many stripes 
You still did forgive 
So that we could live 
You sacrificed your life 
Im so thankful 
Jesus Christ

He died 
He didnt stay 
He rose 
On the third day 
Jesus where do I begin 
Thank you for doing it for me over and again

Jesus , is all I can say 
Thank you for loving me in a way 
Thank you for all that you gave 
So that I could be saved 
(Repeat 1x)
He died 
He didnt stay 
He rose 
On the third day 
Jesus where do I begin 
Thank you for doing it for me over and again

Premium Member Totally At Odds

OUR DIFFERENCES ARE LIKE PIECES OF A PUZZLE CALLED LIFE,
that didnt seem so obvious at first, 
but looking back you can expect the worst,
when strained expressions show one’s true feelings,
at a sore point or stray word amid our dealings,
the odds and ends didnt seem to fit,
try as we may there’s just no making sense of it,
I give a little ground and so do you,
but honestly we just can’t seem to bridge,
that awful gap that’s getting in the way,
breakthroughs sometimes work but not for long,
I hate to sing that same old boring song,
what keeps us far apart is like a curse,
our would be fixes only make the problem worse,
It isn’t like a crossword or some jigsaw,
an interactive game to be looked up,
where answers can be found in how to books,
online website or handy guide,
I wonder is it time to say goodbye,
maybe we can give it one more try

Dying World

Sun burns earth where wheat once grew

dry as sticks now no chance to renew

Rain will fall no more to enrich the land,

mother cant cry ,silenced by human hand.

Jungle trees cleared by greed

no fruits ripen producing healthy seeds,

to cure ailments and disease alike,

Forever lost in barren ground.

Poisoned ground with chemicals

wiping out insects who pollinate crops

Poisoned minds fed by corporate words

spliting minds like a sweeping sword.

Like sheep all led to the slaughter

promises of riches and a longer life

Used as fodder in religious strife

Oh people of earth seek the water.

Too late will be the cry as the Earth

broken beyond repair dies slowly

and breathes its last ,will they

all shout out any price to pay.

Why didnt we heed the rebels call,

instead we laughed at natures fall.

Why didnt we act when the chance arose,

its too late now as we fall.

Cry for a dying world we called home

Tears shed that wont water a crop

Cry to the sky and whatever God

to save us from a living hell.

if only we did something ourselves

did we really need that big house

Why did we laud selfish thoughts

Believing what we thought was truth.

Who Are We

shadows of the past 
visions in the dark 
memories that didnt last 
echoes of the heart 

who are we?

faces with no eyes 
emotions without love 
humans full of pride 
vessels without a dove 

who are we?

a forrest without the sun 
an ocean without the water 
a mother without her son 
a father without his daughter 

who are we?

are we the whispers in the wind 
or a scream in the desert 
are we the feeling when we win 
or the pain when we get hurt 

who are we?

pages without the pen
a year without a summer 
an egg without the hen 
a drum without the drummer 

who are we?

are we the void in an open plain 
are we the lonliness in limbo
am i the thunder in an open range 
or  taps of rain on a window 

who are we?

are we the lonesome dove 
or are we the chosen sparrow 
is it me youre thinking of 
or are we the bow without the arrow 

who are we?

Rejected Again

Rejected. Again.
 
Tonight I think I felt utterly defeated. 
My hands around my towel to the shower I retreated.
I cleaned the house. Put the kids to bed early.
So I could try my best to be flirty... 
He shows me no interest. I wear black lace. 
I expect him to kiss me.. hands on my waist... 
My fiance sighs... Me on my knees now I'm bare.
No passion in kissing or fist in my hair.
He looked down at me and said sternly "no."
But i tried again. I just couldn't let it go. 
I kissed up his neck and I straddled his hips. 
Heartache felt like a sinking ship..
"Didnt you hear me say no"
"Get off" 
I feel dirty.
What should I expect? Hes in his mid 30s
Like I'm trying to force him..I hear whispers.
I scrub my skin raw in the shower... till it blisters.
I'm 23 maybe I'm too eager to please him.
I hear his excuses yet he calls them his reasons. 
I'm available to him. At his beck and call. 
When I want him.... he let's me fall. 
We have 2 kids and my body has changed. 
Maybe I just dont feel the same. 
Maybe I dont look my best.
Why do I feel like a monster with my hands on his chest?
We're supposed to get married legitimately 
How do I cope with no intimacy?
We have sex twice a month if I'm honest 
I'm feeling disgusting. Worthless. Haunted.
I lay naked beside him and tears sting my eyes.
I choke out another  "i love you. goodnight."

Premium Member My Dog

Dogs will bark 
When they see strangers
Dogs will wave their tails
When they see their masters
Dogs will bite our shoes
When they got some itchy teeth
Dogs will send us the morning papers
When we know how to train them
But he is a dog which always remains 
Silent and motionless
Maybe he is too ignorant
Maybe he is too proud
Maybe he is too busy
Maybe he is behind some mischieves
Maybe he'll attack one day
When the right moment strikes
Maybe he plans to give us a surprise
This is my dog which once attacked strangers
With no barking
He said it's not his fault
Because you didnt ring the bell
And come in 
Only after his master appeared
What a loyal dog

I Will Try To Be Better

SO MANY DAYS SLIDE INTO WEEKS AND THEN MONTHS THEN YEARS NOW DECADES HAVE COME AND GONE AND NOT THE ONES YOU THINK
ITS NOT LOST YEARS OF YOUTH WHEN YOU COULDNT WAIT TO GROW UP
ITS NOT GETTING OUT OF HIFGH SCHOOL AND THE COLLEGE TANK

NO ITS THE TIME YOU STEPPED INTO THE WORLD JADED BY EXPECTATIONS
MAN MADE AND ENFORCED LIKE WE JUST LIE TO EVERYONE AND SAY WE SELF MADE
BUT SOMEONE GAVE YOU A CHANCE THAT OTHERS DONT HAVE AND WE LOOK DOWN ON THEM WITH NO HESITATION
THROWING REASONS FOR THEIR FAILURE OUT WHEN WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THEM

A FRIEND ONCE SAID EXPECTATIONS ARE FUTURE RESENTMENTS
AND I THINK THAT MAY BE THE SMARTEST THING EVER SAID
I CAN ALWAYS SAY I WILL TRY TO DO BETTER BUT BETTER FOR ME MAY NOT BE BETTER FOR YOU
I AM STARTING TO RESENT PEOPLE FOR HOLDING ME TO EXPECTATIONS THAT WERE SET BY FOOLS

II WILL TRY TO DO BETTER IN MY OWN WAY 
BY SHARING THINGS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN LOST ALONG THE WAY
HERE ANOTHER PEARL I PICKED UP
IF YOU SEE A TURTLE ON A FENCE POST KNOW HE DIDNT PICK HIMSELF UP REGARDLESS OF WHAT HE TELLS YOU

I WILL TRY TO DO BETTER BASED ON WHAT GOD WROTE ON THE HEART OF ALL MEN
I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT WHAT YOU THINK I SHOULD HAVE AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE
JAMES BROWN KNEW THE SCORE MAN MADE MONEY MONEY DIDNT MAKE THE MAN
THESE DAYS IT DOES LIKE BEING RICH MAKES YOU SMARTER THAN THE REST OF US

I WILL TRY TO DO BETTER IN THE FACE OF IGNORANCE
BUT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND LEFT AND RIGHT ON THE TV 
IS NOT WHAT YOU GET TO LABEL ME AND IF YOU DECIDE TO TRY THAT ON
WELL LETS JUST SAY A TRUMP RALLY HAS NOT GONE THAT WRONG 

I WILL TRY TO DO BETTER BY CALLING MY SISTER AND HUGGING MY MOM
UNDERSTANDING MY FATHER AND APPRECIATING THE LOVE OF MY DOG
I WILL TRY TO DO BETTER IN THE WAY THAT I SEE 
I WILL TRY TO DO BETTER AND IT BE BEST IF YOU JUST LET ME BE
