7 Digits Away

When you are in fear

Remember I'm near

7 Digits Away

So you'll never have to be afraid

When you are in freight

Over a family fight

Call on me

I will help thee

Through and through

I'm in love with you

"Pristine"

The sky's are

Long, so warm in

My eye

It all seems

Too real, too real

To be a dream



Maybe the thought

I once had

That made me think

That I was silent

In my own speech



Maybe it was the mistakes

I made once

That made the actions

Into bad, dark

Things

**Changed**

blessed upon me from

the depths of Hell itself

an evil beyond compare

for my heart has been

sealed away for all eternity

i look towards the heavens

searching, praying and hoping

for help from the master of all

and yet, even with his divine power

not even he can release me from

this eternal pit of terror

you put me here, for i could not

do what was destined for me to do

i looked past it, beyond it

as i did so my heart was

encased in an unbreakable shield of evil

i reach for you, but you don't reach back

i call to you, yet you don't reply

it is now that i realize what ive become

changed from a boy, to one of the unforgiven

Girl Behind the Counter

A lobby full of patients while a young girl chores

Inside an ancient beige counter and glass walls

Movements are all programmed like a robot

Another typical dreadful day grinding at work



Tap, tap, tap echoes through the opaque glass

Annoyed, she spins around and sees a little one

Who has to stand on his toes to see over the edge

Quite a young boy, perhaps in the first grade



They stare at each other until she becomes irritated

Silence is interrupted when she asks, "Yes?"

He squels, "Hello, may I have a piece of paper?"

With a raised eyebrow she hands him his request



This does not stop the child from asking again,

"Well I'll need something to write with, got anything?"

She releases a loud sigh and fetches a pen from the cup

And places it in the small hands of this demanding childs



Still the boy stands there with an unsatisfied face

"This pen is black but, can I also have a red pen?"

An artificial smile appears while she fishes him a red pen

Once satisfied she turns from him to continue her work



And just as she falls back into her mindless groove

Another acute tap, tap, tap, is heard from behind

Frustrated, she swings around but no one is there

No rug rat, just two pens and a paper on the ledge



Enraged she collects the items and to her surprise

Is the drawing of a smiling girl with a big red heart

The words, "Please smile more, you're pretty"

She pauses, exhales and displays an honest grin

WE'LL MAKE IT THROUGH

WE'LL MAKE IT THROUGH

(T. Beechey)



We've both been told the very same speech,none of our goals can ever  be reached

And we'll both end up so far behind having lives undefined

But that's not how it's meant to be and we're starting now,just wait and see!

You'll soon discover we'll succeed and one another is all we need



Take my hand,we'll make it through

Everything is brand spankin' new

Just as long as we're together

Nothing's wrong regardless of whether

Anyone has something to say

They cannot bring us down today

We're both grand,me and you

Take my hand,we'll make it through



We're gonna hear some unkind words about how being here is so absurd

And we haven't even got a prayer,but you know what? We don't care!

They waste their breath with every stir,we understand that death may occur

Just let us run,that's all we ask cause,in unison,we'll complete the task



Take my hand,we'll make it through

Maybe not as planned,but it'll do

Brand new hope,brand new dream

No time to mope,it's time to scream!

Nothing's gonna stop us now

We're staying on top and that's our vow

All around the land has an open view

Take my hand,we'll make it through



There's nothing fancy about us two,we just need a chance to make it through

And since no one would compensate,our wait is done and the time is late

We have to make ourselves a chance,that first step we take is a great expanse

After that,that's all she wrote --- I'll grab your hat,you get my coat



Take my hand,we'll make it through

We're in command --- yes,it's true

What we speak is what we mean

And we only seek to make the scene

To be a part,to join the crowd

To show our hearts are strong and proud

We're a band united that's grew and grew

Take my hand,we'll make it through



We now see the top,it's crystal clear! There's no time to stop,let's perservere

Dear Pain

Dear Pain,



Even though you're long gone

and no longer by my side,

you've taught me more than you can imagine,

and from this moment forward I shall apply.



Despite all the rough times we've been through,

I took valuable lessons with me when I walked away from you.



For one:

I can't always get what I want;

Objects of desire are mainly meant to taunt.



Secondly:

Patience is key;

For if something is worth waiting for, one will wait for it unconditionally.



Three:

Love can be expressed through more than just words;

And things left unsaid or undone brought you back to me and hurt me worse.



Four:

Some things weren't meant to cling to;

so...

JUST...

LET...

GO...



Fifth through fifty-sixth:

Too many to list.

But all these lessons have one commonality -

To NEVER forget my priority.

(Fate shows its face when things work themselves out naturally).



Love,

Strength

"Aja to the world"

i dont know what to do

and i dont know what to say

if this feeling is true

keeps going all day



although my mind says go

my heart says stay

some say "no"

while others "ok"



bunch of hesitation

a lot of fears

part of navigation

wipe that tear



go get up, make a start

even they say you are not smart

stand still and play your part

cheer up, follow your heart

"AJA"

i havent wrote a poem for a long time

like an old stacked bottle of spanish wine

that i havent even realized days

of those happy moments and many ways



i would like to dedicate this short poem

to all my dearest at home

let me tell you always repeatedly

i love you all, so much and honestly



and to think that love alone is from God

oh, baby, baby, never be that sad

cause what important is that you loved at all

love Him, thy neighbor, thy self is God's call



so those who had and have a broken heart

come on over baby, lets push the cart

move on, move on, life's full of surprises

love God, rejoice and take away vice

To my …



I know right now, we aren’t on the greatest terms… I know in times like this, we both say things we might not completely mean. But even though right now I might be a tad upset, disappointed, or angry, I still Love you.



I can’t give up on you… I refuse to give you up. The good times we have far outweigh any bad times that could ever come up. Right now, I’m waiting for you to call me back. I’m going to keep waiting… because I know you will call. I have faith in you; I hope you have faith in me too.



Well, I’ll be here, and whenever you’re ready to call me…. I’ll be here, Ready to forgive you, ready to move on, Ready … Just ready, for you, for our Love.



Always Ready,

Your Lover
