Innocent Man

As an innocent man stands trial
He cant help but be in denial
he is accused with possession of a firearm
but this man intended no harm
it was the other man who was at the scene
how could the police not have seen
that he was the one in possession
he was the one with the aggression
what he intended to do
none of us have a clue
so as this innocent man stands in the dock
for being in possession of a glock
he looks at the jury
with a face of fury
im not guilty he pled
the co-accused was the guilty one 
that's why he fled
he didn't turn up to court,
he couldn't face the time
so why did he commit this crime
and let an innocent man take the blame
yous criminals, your all the same!

Joseph

Joseph your like the brother i never had, 
loosing you has his hit me so bad, 
i wish i was still asleep and this was all a nightmare,
cause im scared of wakening up now and admitting to myself that your not there!
I cant bare the thought of never seeing or speaking to you again,
its just not right 
i wish your death was something i could fight, 
im angry and frustrated that life has turned out this way, 
cos theres a few things to you id like to say..
I love u so much i always have
i cant believe im writing this to you, 
i keep looking up hoping you'll jump out from somewhere & make me laugh!
You were so funny your patter was class,
even though u were so clumsy and kicked over the odd glass :)
You loved your scrap and  any antique, 
remember that old fireplace that my dad said you wernt to keep, 
No-one thought it was worth anything so you carried it all by yourself and your research paid off you were up 6 tun and they wer all ticked off  :) 

It's been a few days now that youve been gone and already it feels too long,
I think that the angel who has taken you from us has got it wrong, 
But they don't make a mistake, 
it's only the special ones that they take
She must've seen that you were one of a kind,
and there was no other person like you she could find,  
Were all angry with this angel for taking you away, but no matter what joe forever in our hearts you will stay xx
