SISTER
A sister is someone who loves you from the heart.
No matter how much you argue, you cannot be drawn apart.
She is a joy that cannot be taken away.
Once she enters your life, she is there to stay.
A friend who helps you through difficult times,
Her comforting words are worth much more than dimes.
A partner who fills your life with laughs and smile,
These memories last for miles and miles.
When she is by your side, the world is filled with life.
When she is not around, your days are full of strife.
A sister is a blessing who fills your heart with love.
She flies with you in life with the beauty of a dove.
A companion to whom you can express your feelings,
She doesn't let you get bored at family dealings.
Whether you are having your ups or downs,
She always helps you with a smile and never frowns.
With a sister, you cannot have a grudge.
She is as sweet as chocolate and as smooth as fudge.
Having a sister is not just a trend.
It is knowing you can always turn to her, your best friend.
Mama gave me one sister,God gave me three more, I love my sisters.

PARADISE
"I hope for a hereafter, where there would be four rivers, one of clear water, one of milk, one of honey and one of wine. a place where there would be high thrones and tall people; where green silk clothes would be worn, with gold bracelets and crown full of rubies. Peace will be lingering in the air, evil will be jealous, its heart blaring as bright as the sun rays. the sand underneath the feet would be of gems, from emeralds, to sapphire, to topaz and diamonds. and there would be boys and girls like pearls walking around, their beauty too bashful to perceive, unimaginative to fathom. a life I want, a life I dream of. where every sound is like a soft piano key, where every heart beat is tranquility. There would be nothing but what you wish for, a place filled with possibilites, infinities and everlasting certainties. Smiles will be on each and every face, a joyous moment that will never perish. a place that will never end. an irresistible beginning that will last forever. Oh, how I would give anything to stain myself with a piece of heaven, Oh, I would rather get martyred than die in vain. everyone asks if there is a life other than this, other than today. I will say Yes, there is. A Nirvana that will be a thousand times better than your lousy Saturdays. You wont be sad, you wont be hurt, you'll only feel glad, you'll be overflowing with mirth."

WHAT IF
What if everything we've ever done in the dark was secretly recorded,
What if the culprits behind every rumor
got prosecuted for all the controversy they started,
What if 'walls could talk' and told us
everything that goes on behind closed doors,
Would we then try and keep our own houses clean?
or continue worrying about what you're doing in yours,
What if we could find out what folks say about us
by the 'flick of a light switch
Will we constantly overreact or
let it slide off our backs as if it
were nothing more than a bark from a dog

FUNNY
it's funny how hello is always accompanied with goodbye
it's funny how good memories can start to make you cry
it's funny how forever never seems to last
it's funny how much you'd lose if you forgot about your past
it's funny how “friends” can just leave when you are down
It's funny how i met friends who afterwards became family, a family that i never want to loose
it's funny how when you need someone they never are around
it's funny how people change and think they're so much better
it's funny how many lies are packed into one “love letter”
it's funny how one night can contain so much regret
it's funny how you can forgive but not forget
it's funny how ironic life turns out to be
but the funniest part of all, is none of thats funny to me

AM HAPPY
I'm only happy when it rains
without a cloud in the sky
I'm only happy in these chains
all that I can do is cry
I'm only happy when I bleed
it let's me know I'm alive
I'm only happy when I need
just myself to survive
I'm only happy when I dream
of my long lost love
I'm only happy when I scream
at the Heavens above
I'm only happy when I'm alone
at war with my brain
I'm only happy when I've known
that life is just pain
I'm only happy when I'm lost
and I can't find my way
I'm only happy when I've crossed
the path of disarray
I'm only happy when I see
death is my way out
I know I'll be free
I have no doubt
I'm only happy when I'm told
that I've gone insane
I'm only happy when I hold
all these thoughts in my brain
I'm only happy when I sleep
and go out of my mind
I'm only happy when I'm in too deep
I'm only happy when it's me you cannot find

TRUST
Trust is
A light that shines in your eyes
Bright and flickering
As a candle in the breeze
Trust is
The brown sparkles
Shone through all
Like stars at nightfall
Trust is
When you cheer me and keep
Me laughing through tears
Better then anyone
Trust is
Everything I feel with you
Everyday in love
Always
That is what
Trust
Is

WHAT HAS BEEN REVEALED
What has been revealed,
Has been revealed.
Even with eyes tightly closed...
What has been revealed,
Has been revealed.
Even with an upturned nose...
What has been revealed,
Has been revealed.
Even with pretensions,
Left to charade.
What has been revealed,
Has been revealed.
Even with the cool-aid made...
What has been revealed,
Has been revealed.
Even with debates...
Created for more time to waste.
What has been revealed,
Has been revealed.
Even those who protest,
Unaccepting with wishes to reject!
What has been revealed,
Has been revealed.
Even the message,
And the messenger to detest!
What has been revealed,
Has been revealed.

CERTAINTY
Mama told me to keep her close.
Certainty provides clarity.
So I give her my hand,
And in barter, I quest a true friend.
In doubt, I turn to Certainty,
But am met with the silent treatment.
I press further,
Only to be reduced to resentment.
I wonder. How can this be?
Desertion in times of desperation?
Certainty, existing and non existing, remains an illusion.
A body, that will never affirm any supposition.

Ghetto
Feeling like I’m walking in a circle
Everywhere I go I see the struggle
On the street human life is like a bubble
Better learn how to stay outta trouble
Little kids growing up without a father
Lying on the corner, some hungers
Have no money cannot go to any college
Have no knowledge and an empty stomach
Sunlight burns yellow into black skin
Gotta eat, so he knows that he must sin
Got a crew and yesterday they stabbed him
Cuz he stabbed the one who used to trust him
That’s the life when you grow up in the ghetto
Where the war ain’t never gonna settled
Poverty will always be your best friend
Try to run but you’ll find another dead end .
Try to look for a shelter cause it’s raining
Just to find that there ain’t no understanding
She’s an orphan and the street raised her
No one there to save her when they raped her
15, and she has to be a mommy
Couldn’t feed the child when she’s still hungry
So sex becomes a way of surviving
Her daughter can now eat, but she’s dying
The mother didn’t know when she got paid
It was the same time that she got Aids
Left her daughter and she’s only 14
The little girl lives the life we have foreseen
That’s the way when you living in the ghetto
Where your life ain’t never gonna better
Poverty will always be your best friend
Try to run but you’ll find another dead end.

MY PRAYER
I asked for wisdom, God gave me problems to solve.
I asked for prosperity,God gave me the brains and the strength to work.
I asked for courage,God gave me danger to overcome.
I asked for love, God gave me troubled people to help.
I asked for favours,God gave me opportunities.
I received nothing I wanted.
I received everything I needed.
My prayer has been answered.

MAMA
God made a wonderful mother,
A mother who never grows old;
He made her smile of the sunshine.
And He moulded her heart of pure gold;
In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks fair roses you see;
God made a wonderful mother,
And He gave that dear mother to me.
I am more made of her;
That's why they call me "more her made,"

Me
I have to live with myself and so
I want to be fit for myself to know,
I want to be able as days go by,
To look at myself straight in the eye.
I don't want to stand with the setting sun
And hate myself for the things I've done.
I don't want to hide on a closet shelf
A lot of secrets about myself,
And fool myself as I come and go
Into thinking that nobody else will know
What kind of man I really am;
I don't want to dress myself in sham.
I want to go with my head erect,
I want to deserve all men's respect
And in this struggle for fame and pelf
I want to be able to like myself.
I don't want to look at myself and know
That I am a bluster and empty show.
I cannot hide myself from me;
I can see what others can never see;
I know what others can never know,
I cannot fool myself, and so
Whatever happens, I want to be
Self-respecting and conscience free.

MY LOVE FOR YOU
How do I describe
My love for you?
How can I explain
That this is true?
Love is a funny thing
We'll never understand,
But hear this truth ring:
I'm in love with you.
These butterflies,
Shy smiles,
Late nights.
Thoughts are constantly
About you.
I can't tell you
All the times
This heart beats faster,
Even when you're out of view.
Always in my thoughts,
Always in my dreams.
A life without you would
Tear me apart at the seams.
It's you who keeps me up all night
And gets me through the day.
It seems to me that there
Is only one thing left to say.
I've said it already,
But to make sure you know it's true,
I'll say how I feel:
I'm completely in love with you.

Dear friend
The feeling of friendship from the start
Is that special feeling in your heart
A feeling from deep down inside
A feeling that no one should hide
A friend is there through good and bad
They make you happy when you're sad
they brighten up your darkest day
Just by the simple thing's they say
Now friendship can't be bought or sold
It may get tarnished, and may get old
You can over come your greatest fear
Just look around and it is there
Now friendship's one and only cost
Is to make sure that it's never lost

Tears
tears we cry to release our pain when love has gone far away.
tears we cry when a friend hurts us inside with the words they dont realise.
tears we cry on a wedding day to see the joy on this very special day.
tears we cry when a child is born full of hope that part of us lives on.
tears we cry when a life has gone for the loved one that has passed on.
tears we cry to sometimes get our way thats not right i have to say.
tears we cry all through our lives for joy and pain that never goes away.
tears we cry men can do as well as not in hiding but in front of there woman too.
tears we cry all through our lives for the joy and pain we have inside.

Friendship
friendship is love but not in love
friendship is a secret never to be told
friendship is a shoulder to cry on
friendship is not having to say sorry but do
friendship is not judging no matter what
friendship is someone to run too when things are tough
friendship is a hand to hold when things are so rough
friendship is someone to laugh with not at you
freindship is just knowing they are there
my freind is all of these hope you have one just like her...
