Fearless fighter
Combat those struggles 
With your left hand
While you grasp those opinions
In your right hand
And hold your head up high
Above the most elevated clouds
Peering down upon the world
In which you garnered your strength...

Hold your head up high

Elegantly Stand...Walk...Love...

Breathe your daily air

Eternity soon brings end

No earthly tears to follow.

Keep pushing forward 
And do not ever look back 
There have been strides of improvement 
You are heading towards the right track 
Be proud of overcoming those obstacles 
Hold your head up high 
More success will come your way 
Continue to reach towards the sky...

The sky has just crashed down on me
and I've got nothing left to hide
The stars that were so much brighter now
Flicker out like the sparkle in your eyes
There's no hope in the air I breathe
Can't even hold my head up high
It's hard to walk away and leave
Forgive me when I say goodbye...

 As i walk in  darkness 
I see the light
I try to run
I try to fight
I try to hold my head up high
But love invades me
It permeates my sight
And no longer do i wonder what is right

So take my hand 
For here we stand
I cannot fight my love for you 
Ask me now i'll say I do ...

Dark world now a colorful array
Able to conquer whatever comes my way
No longer let life get me down
In this new world I'm safe and sound

I hold my head up high, stand bold and proud
Say what I feel and say it loud
Take this life, hold it by the hand
As I leave each footprint in the sand....

What’s the matter baby
Do you feel like cryin’
And in the inside you are dyin’ 
He has not been true
And it’s eatin’ all at you

So hold your head so high
And they won’t see your tears
Even though your love has died
For in the end there will always be
Someone to love eternally.

Daring to be Single

When you dare to do; 
What you want to do.
To dare and go where you want to.
Despite being single and on your own.

It feels strange and weird at first.
As if everyone is staring.

Then you relax and adjust.
You hold your head up high 
& almost in defiance;
 you have fun and do what you intended....

People often ask me
how I ever stood my ground, 
when trouble just surrounds me
and people push me down.

I say to them (with tongue in cheek)
I'm sure my work's not done.
I may have fought the battle,
But the war is not yet won.

I will always manage
to hold my head up high.
(Even though that enables them
to better see me cry.)...

What are you running away from
The faster you run the harder to get along
For if the person chasing you this day
Is yourself then you will never get away

But find out the truth for its plain to see
You can't change it now from what it will be
So hold your head up high as you go
Others will see you and know it's not all show.

Can you ever understand?
My walk in life
Since I was little
I’ve been told
You’re not good enough 
Started to believe the lie
I couldn’t dignify with a reply
When I learned to hold my head up high
Standing at a cross rode of
Hope & Despair
That’s easy I choose 
Hope
Not Hope in what I see
Removing all the distracting camouflages 
Yeah faith is what it is to me
The evidence of the unseen...

"I would Hold U Closely but Never in Contempt.I Would Hold The Door 4 U Each and Every Place We Went.Come War I'd Hold the Line 4 U Or If Ever There Was Need.I'd Hold My Last Lifes Breath 4 U and Drown So U Could Breathe.As I Hold U in My Heart as I Hold U In My Gaze As I Hold Your Hand So Lovingly While I Hold My Head Up High.I Will Hold Each Moment Spent With U Clearly In My Mind.

Fight The Good Fight.

My teacher once told me
"Now never be shy."
Where ever I go hold my head up high.
She said I could do all put to the test.
Just hold my head high and give it my best.

She went on to say,
"The more you put in, the more you get out.
If I don't do a thing, 
then the thing I'll get's nought."

So pick up my head
be strong and be bright.
Keep on going
and fight the good fight....

I could never understand
Why people are so full of hate
As they stare as I stand
Like they can smell the fear they create
Cloaked under all their madness
Feeling lost with no where to hide
How would I escape my sadness
Searching for a friend to stand beside
Try to hold my head up high
Maybe if I do not look
I walk right by
Hoping they don’t see the voice they took
No one says a word
Now they stay unheard...

They say take the good with the bad. With every hardship comes ease. Whatever life plants you bloom with ease.

I have cried rivers in pain. The uncontrollable thoughts that live rent free in my mind. Whatever life plants you bloom with ease.

I have laughed uncontrollably enough tears of joy to fill a stream. I’ve loved and I’ve lost. I always paint on my smile. Hold my head up high. Whatever life plants you bloom with ease....

F-irst love and best friend
A-lways taught me to be kind
T-hat encouraging smile 
H-ealing the sick, to count on faithfully
E-yes that saw beyond what could be
R-eal life hero right next to me
S-ilent strength with a tender heart

D-octor by profession, working tirelessly
A-lways would say hold your head up high
Y-oung at heart, great was his company!

a heart thats in a total mess 
a life with only one request 
to have a love so true and real 
instead hatreds what I feel 
I want to feel like I can fly 
instead of feeling like I wanna die 
I want someone to care for me 
I want someone to really see 
the pain I go through everyday 
the impossibles I overcame 
but still I hold my head up high 
refusing to let go and die 
for once I want to stay alive 
and wait for someone to arrive....

Tomorrow will be better
Even if there are clouds in the sky
Hold your head up high
You will get by

Look all around you
When everything's blue
Go for a walk
Listen to the birds
Nature is true

Life is a roller coaster
An ocean, a river
A storm then the calm
Happy and sad
Good and bad

Happy times will come
Believe its true
Be in the present
The here and now

Don't worry about tomorrow
The moment will pass you by
Time does fly...

with a few little nicks and scratches
i walk on to another passion
like switching from the dirt road to the newly paved one
i hold my head up high and realize that the pain wont last
cause i think its already passed 
so then i look  down this road and look from the new to old 
then turn my back with a heart set for gold
to warm the heart that once was so cold
but down this road is this gold and the warmth i want
traveling down the newly paved road...

(For Oliver, who made this statement) (in reference to M.J.)

If You Love Him. Do
Not Cry
Think of him often,but
hold your head, up high
Despite, it hurts, that you
couldn't say: goodbye
Because, We all, at some
point, are going to die
Whether or not, made known
is the reason why
Since, it's the Lord's preroga-
tive, in Our lives to pry
So, you Need not worry, about
his being given Wings to fly
If, He'll be waiting there, for Us,
in the sky...

When your world turns upside down,
  You don't know wether to smile or frown,
     Hold your head up high,
         Look the world in the eye.

Never, be afraid to cry.
  Tears of pain soon shall pass,
     For heartache never lasts.

Tears of joy soon will follow
   Bringing hope for a new tomorrow!

When it's hard to find the words to say
   How you truly feel,
     Put your trust in the strength of friends
        To help you through the day....

i shall die when the day comes
when i have finished my life
all my missions shall be complished
letting me leave with no regrets
my suffers wil be healed
and dreams have been finished
seen a baby lie its first day
and a man takes its last breath
had my first love 
and then seen him go away
regreted many things
thanked the lord for my possibilities
lived my life
so that when i die
i shall hold my head up high
have a smile on my face
and be ready...

Let the raindrops 
fall 
on your eyes

So that your tears
can be
cleansed from the sky

To wash away
all 
of the sadness
inside your heart

Hold your head up high,
hope 
comes from 
above 

Go, follow the rainbow,
to the far side
of love

Take a star journey
thru the 
mirror clouds of joy

Follow the prism reflection,
to that twin soul
you been
dreaming of

Follow that beautiful rainbow,
to the forever side
of love
