Premium Member STAND UP TO YOUR HATE
For years now I have tried to understand your hate… to find the cause…the reasons… the source from where your anger originates. I’ve tried to understand how much pain and suffering on others you are willing to impart and to ignore. I’ve wondered when and how you began to hate everything that I sand for. I’ve often wonder how you sleep at...

I stand up
I stand up I walk to the door no one is here I'm on my own I know this place I've been here before just a few steps and the fear will be gone... I stand up I cannot cry no one will come to give me a ride I have to be brave I have to reconcile with the loneliness I felt in old times... I stand up I'm a woman...

Time To Stand Up For Human Rights
It's time, For you to stand in line, And take a stand this time, While there is still time, For human rights to define. It is all to easy to define, The rights of those who think they deserve to shine, Brighter than those others who are in a different line, For all time. But I say that makes us all less fine,...

Let Us Stand Up
An outright defeat in Ukraine May spell doom for Russian reign It means more than political gain We refuse to let hatred sustain Fear the indifferent, for they allow The worst atrocities to happen right now We cannot turn a blind eye To the suffering of those who cry Let us stand up for what we believe And do our part to ensure that...

Stand Up To Cheers
Don’t just raise your glass, stand up to cheers Until each and every one gets audibly clinked Repeating Ike-ism’s stretching memories years Keeps the good ones up front and spirits linked Not so subtly cheat (just a little) in a crokinole game Enough to get caught to see who’s watching most Laugh when he’s busted, “Who me?” He’d exclaim Get the...

Wake Up, Stand Up and Fight
Locked up in your own illusion? Can't find the solution? Is it raining so heavily that you can't see things? Not being able to spread those beautiful wings? The tree of happiness is shedding its leaves. Are you still looking for someone who understands your needs? Standing on the edge of life... Trying and crying and dying... But remember, a part of you...
