light in the dark


Shine in the dark
light up your heart.

show your talent and be bright
light your candle to make a spark.

Never stay in the dark
turn on your light and be a star
Enter in sight and be a spark.

No one will see your passion in the dark
open the door and place a mark.


Rise with confident and follow your heart
Only the light will bring you to the start

Darkness has no clearance
light has all the appearance
keep your light and you will forever beat the dark.

mind

Deep in the mind

Deep in the mind
Deep in thoughts
I never know you for real.

I see a side that look like
I heard the voice that sounds like.

I cannot tell who you are
I have to wonder if it was a woe

Today you nice
Tomorrow you are sour eye
Make up your mind who you want to be.

I am tired of guesting 
I am frustrated 
I keep asking please tell me

It hard for me to see you through
I am not a mind reader I am just me.

Happiness


Happiness is life
Live and love.

Get up with a mind
Ready to shine.

Teach the world to be amazed
Rise and make a changed.

Fill your spirit with sunshine
Show up with a smile.


Let your words be confident
Take control of your mindset

Sing loudly and call a crowd
Keep it up and you be surrounded.

Stay happy and alive
Touch the hearts of those alone

Be an example to those you know
Happiness will show
Keep close and they will show.
