It Wasnt Your Time To Die I Can Tell By the Weather

Darkness falls on my troubled brow
I want to get out but I don’t know how
Surrounded by the absence of light 
I look for you but your nowhere in sight

You’re lost from my life and gone forever
It wasn’t your time to die I can tell by the weather

It’s rained for days inside my head 
I’m alone and angry all I see is red
It’s cold and damp and I can’t keep warm
Then there is another torrential storm

You’re lost from my life and gone forever
It wasn’t your time to die I can tell by the weather

The wind blows violently and there is no end to the overcast
Every break of sun is quickly swallowed up fast
When the morning was over what can you say
There was a beautiful sky what a perfect day

You’re lost from my life and gone forever
It wasn’t your time to die I can tell by the weather

Premium Member Knives

Obsidian and flint is what started it all
Before them life was a ball
Boys grew up, and turned into men
Until metals came, life would not be the same
 
Primarily a utensil, to be used to cut meat
Now a weapon to cut meat on the street
Many a person cut down in their prime
To this modern cowardice, i call knife crime
 
To stand tall, and fight with your fist
Nowadays, they stick it in and they twist
They have the gall, to laugh as they flee
These cowardly scum, never men will they see

No age is protected, if its where your to be
In the right city, or any country
A knife is a knife, where ever you are
If you live or die, it will always scar
 
This darned weapon can be used for the right
Protecting yourself in an unwanted fight
But to pick it up, you become one of them
No longer a boy, that will turn into men
 
To all out there who have suffered this way
I pray the killers will have their day
Not to rejoice, but to repent
If it was not for those knives, no lives would be spent

I Will Always Remember Your Face

You died without warning we didn’t get to say goodbye
I can’t get you out of my head no matter hard I try
I see the simplest thing and it reminds me of you
It’s hard to handle but for your memory Ill pull through

Your body has gone what you left behind is the only trace
The pieces of your life may be forgotten but I will always remember your face

I keep all the things that made you light up wit glee
And when I saw that joy it brought warmth to me
Even though your death has ripped me apart
I will keep that feeling close to my heart

Your body has gone what you left behind is the only trace
The pieces of your life may be forgotten but I will always remember your face

Your influence on others I see at every turn
A legacy for you and a torch that shall forever burn
I pray I don’t loose your memory, heaven please forbid
I will honor you and live like you once did

Your body has gone what you left behind is the only trace
The pieces of your life may be forgotten but I will always remember your face

Testament of Have Not

God gave me a life to visit the earth
To see the beautiful heaven
Full of fruits and awesome sky
Sets me free with joy and peace

God gave me a mother with full of love
instinctual, unconditional, and forever
persuaded me the greatness of motherhood.
I learnt how dearer was the mother for me
I enjoyed life with liberty and peace.

God gave me a dad with full of care
Affection and great regards
As everything was going grand
I start searching more pleasure and joy
Thus, I have been selfish being all my life.

I punished my parents for my own choices
For the pursuit of happiness.
All charming people, I fancy, are spoiled
And I forgot to wipe other’s tear.

I got sick and found that life is short
I know now how beautiful a day can be
When love and kindness touches the heart
with motherly love.
Be care and cared is only the route 
to our common good, then
Return to the God rest in peace.

You Shall Not Return

(Answer to Claude McKay I shall return)
YOU shall not come again
You won’t come back
You shall not turn up, you shan’t
To chuckle and care for the ones you want to see
To wristwatch with wonder surprised eyes
For the dozy noontime shall be shadowy,
And you shall not see the way
The forest fires shall have eased off
And there shall be mere darkness, grey
Grey smoke drifting stagnantly
To the blackened grey sky without limit
You won’t reach your destination
Where many streams loiter without flowing
As huge boulders in it are embedded
Your dreams shall be unrealized
From afar ere you arrive
You shall hear the fiddle and fife
Of the village of your destination,
Eliding desponding delicious tunes
That stir to life the secreted depth of native life
Of a life of depression, nullity of life
Dull melodies of primitive, smart tunes that
Shall make you moan, this weak and vicious melodies
You shall not return, you shall not return
The pain in your heart, the soreness in your soul
Cannot be alleviated, you shall expire
Before you return your dreams unrealized
You shall not return again
