Undying Love

This fast life of mine is dying
All you see is my lifeless body lying
Scarcely heaving my last breath
I knew it was coming, soon my own death
I had one last chance to say my peace
So that my loneliness would cease
I got to say on my last breath
Don't fear my love I have finished my quest
It was for undying love
One day you will fly with me as a white dove
A dove stands for eternity and that's what it shall be
For the next time we meet we will see each other clearly
Goodbye for now don't shed a tear
For one day soon I will be near

Your Evergiving Love

I thought I had lost you 
But you were always there
You never left even though it felt like my soul was bare
You guide me through when I don't think I can
When i'm so exhausted you lift me up with your almighty hands
Even though I haven't succeeded through all trials and tribulations
You didn't cast me out and say I can't handle her situations
You love me always so much as to give your life for all of my sins
Through you love I know I will always win

Turning It Over To Him

I want to be able to care for my child
And maybe just maybe feel normal for a while
I haven't felt emotionally right
When I lose my patience my guard goes up and automatically I want to fight
Why do I feel like I have to have the weight of all on my shoulders
And to feel as if I should be able to move boulders
I tell myself I have to do all
And to do it better than any of you all
To be precise and perfect in my ways
That's my biggest downfall, I'm so set in my ways
To be the best at everything I do
I need to do it all for me
Not just for everyone so they will be pleased
I have to impress myself in life as well as everything I do
To love myself like I do you
To be a good person and show the real me
Would get me on the path that I really need to be
Stop thinking I owe everyone my soul
Not to blab and act like a fool
To my God above I pray you will help
To help me be me and feel the love I once really felt
So I ask you to give me grace,patience,and peace of mind
To know when I come to you, you will tell me i'm in your line
You have got me through all the hard times so far
So keep me going by helping me get back my fire
I can do this,I've been through many things some couldn't handle
I want to live a normal life, once in a while take it as a gamble
Be the woman I want to be with your guidance and loving ways
I turn my life to you God for all of my hard dead set ways to guide me through the 
things to come
So that I am victorious and can say that I have won

Dad

In my heart you will always live
No one can say how much love you did give
Day in and day out when you were in pain
I never once heard you complain
You went through your days so full of life
But I believe God gave you that right
You were always there to laugh or smile
To brighten my day so I could walk that extra mile
You always were the best
You never gave any less
Your memory will forever be fresh in my mind
While we live day to day thinking of you and all the good times

Bodies

You walk , I see bodies, nothing but bones
The people look, you see that they lost their loved ones, not by choice
People crying
Remembering the war
The army killing people for enjoyment and laughs
Remembering what it was like to have a grandpa or uncle to hold you and laugh
The bodies lay  cold in the ground, no one to warm them
No food or bed like the people that killed them
You look at them, they look so cold, tired, and hungry
You think of all the babies that got killed, but why them?
They wanted to have a happy life
No one to be happy with
Their deaths were a tragedy that wasn't meant to be
People killed and people killing
Still bodies lay on the ground
Not a care or tear in the world from you
There is nothing you can do

Used Best

What do you do when you feel as if everything you do is no good
When you try your hardest to do what you could
I used to be the best at one time
Now i'm not but I say everything is fine
I pretend so no one will see
All the disappointment I see in me
I have had a baby girl I wouldn't change for the world
But I wish I could be the same old girl
I feel as if I will never be what I want most
The old me will forever be a ghost
How I deal with these demons inside
Some of them come out but most I can hide
Sometimes they overtake me when I least expect
Can my brain see the me now and be able to accept
I don't know but I will try
To be the best at everything until the day that I die
