Little Brother

Remembering the past and wonderful years,
When you and I played games.
I was a model and you the photographer.
Oh! Why can’t those times come back? For me to make sure you know how wonderful I think you are.
For me to help you find the angel you have inside. 
My heart now cries out loud. Oh! Why can’t those memories erase or ease the pain of you being so far away…
I miss you deer brother.
I miss you deeply,
When I see the stars I think of you. 
When I see the first flowers of spring and contemplate the bright sun of summer with the falling leaves and the white white snow I think of you.
For in my heart you’ll always be the little brother I’m use to see.

If I Could

Times of my life in darkness and fear.
Times of my life causing pain and tears.
If I could only change those years...
I hear a voice in my mind telling me not to fear,
That I will never change the past, but there will always be new years.
New years for a fresh start,
New times to make things right.
I may not have the power to change the past,
But I am surely strong and brave.
I now want to break the chains that tied me 
Down for so long. Looking towards the Light.
Leaving behind the dark and painful times.
I may not change the past but I could
And will change the darkness for light.
For there is always a way to break from the chains,
Chains that keep us doing wrong;
 Now I’m free to go on.

Selfish Love

When I close my eyes I see images of my life flash by.
Pain and sadness is what I had. 
If I loose you… what do I loose?
I loose you… I loose nothing.

I am a woman to the extent of the word.
Woman wonderful been… Sensitive, yet brave and strong.
How blind have I been... Things went so wrong.
Now I am Falling down the pit of your selfish Love.

Birth

Is wonderful to give them life.
Is wonderful to see them grow.
Nothing compares to the feeling of
Holding the miracle crated of love...
Feeling your strengths for them re-born.
Enjoying every great accomplishment.
Resolving together the mistakes.
Enjoying together each dawn.
Planning together the coming of a new day.
Feels wonderful to know, you brought life to this world.
You brought meaning to your life.
You gave birth.

Desperado

I am like a young bird learning to fly
Like a little deer starting to walk
The roads are not clear I am lost in my ways, 
Reaching out to the world for help.
Temptations are strong and so is my desire
to explore and learn  
Please help me identify the road to follow.
Don’t give up on me for I need your guidance
and know that even thought I don’t always show my gratitude 
When I feel lonely or lost your words resound in my mind
and knowing you care helps me understand that there is a better way. 
Don’t let me loose my way take my hand
and guide me to a brighter day.

Foolish Youth

Oh! Who could go back and fix the mistakes of the past.
Who could go back and take the right road…
If we only learned to see right from wrong
Instead of pain we would have joy
Youth foolish youth 
In our minds we thought we knew every answer.
With our eyes we saw the good ways…
Yet refused to take them.
Youth foolish youth 
How much pain we’ve caused 
Rivers of tears from the ones we love
Youth foolish youth 
Now in this lonely place paying a price for my mistakes.
I regret using my youth 
In such foolish way...

Love's Meaning To Life

Love what a beautiful word.
Love what a wonderful feeling.
Love…if we could only see love’s true meaning.
Love your self so you can love others,
Show your love for you to feel it. 
Share your good times,
Share your bad times. 
You’ll see love at all times.
Love means caring,
Love means giving, 
Love means forgiving.
Love little word with big meaning.
When life is good you feel loved.
When life is hard you hardly love.
Love your self so you can love others.
Show your love for you to feel it.
Search deep in your hart deep in your soul.
Search the most hidden places of your mind,
For that is there, that you will find loves meaning to life!

Mother

Giving strength to our heart.
Giving hope to our soul
Showing us wonderful love.
 Laughing with us.
Crying with us.
Helping us trough ruff times.
No matter how hard life seems.
She’s always there beside us 
Sharing and enjoying the great achievements in life
Always with her head up right even when feeling down;
Always showing her love.
Never letting us fall
Mother you are loved.

Youth

Youth… What wonderful years! filled with joy 
There were no tears.
Youth why won’t you stay with me for all my years?
Fun and wonderful times that faded away.
Pain makes me wonder why won’t you stay?
Then when the pain is stronger. 
I take time to think and the pain starts to disappear for now I realize that you are here.
My youth and wonderful years will always be a part of me and from me they’ll never depart,
Because youth is not in my bones or skin youth is in My Heart.

Little Girl

Little woman just cause you’re tall,
Little woman you think you know it all.
Little woman little you know that you are still my little girl.
No matter what you think you know,
No matter what you think you want.
No matter how bad things get.
I will always be there for my little girl.
When things are good,
When things get bad,
When everyone else fails.
I will always be there for my little girl.
To protect you and show you the way.
To guide you through life hard times.
To show you that love will always light up your way.
I will always be there because you’ll always be my Little Girl!
