Soul

Out In The World

The world is dark, dangerous,
it can be confusing.
The trees begin to look alike,
but they’re not.
You can’t figure which way to turn
as the vines fall down; trapped.
So cover yourself in a film of beauty.
Protect yourself in the satin of peace.
The world will say “you’re in a bubble”,
but it’s more than that. In a place
where darkness lights the way,
you have found solitude.

When Love Caves In

It’s the time you realise
the hopes and dreams you had
for love and a future,
they’re all void.
You see, there is a plan for us;
whether directed by God or the universe,
I can’t say. But falling is
just another part.
It’s life. So what does matter?
It’s how we climb again
after the fall. There is
nothing wrong with love,
but love is fragile and
won’t always work.
So love your best as best you can,
and be happy with all you’ve done.

Fall in love down the deepest hole,
but reach for light when the walls cave in.

True Friend and A.C.

It’s what we all need,
what we all desire.
It’s what gives us the drive
and makes us feel inspired.
It’s basic, beautiful,
wonderful, and home.
It’s what makes us feel alive
when we just feel alone.

You’re not going to back off;
you’ll say what needs saying,
because that’s what I need.
Your love is embracing.
I don’t know who I pleased
or how I did it so that I
could get a friend like you.
But thank you for being in my life.

Best Friend

An unsure world of hopes and dreams
are lost without a trace.
Mother’s gone and father’s left;
where do we turn?

Ah, if there isn’t a Golden hand that doesn’t mind
the differences of you.
On this, God’s earth, there are only those who need
and those who give.

The rain can pour from the heavens above.
She’ll shelter you.
Your tummy can rumble and growl for food.
She’ll feed you.

See, it’s not about what makes us different,
it’s not about spots and stripes.
What matters is what connects us; what matters
is love.

The Greatest Gift

To smile, a radiant beam
to another person; a friend.
To give, your entire being
when you’ve got nothing and everything.
To hug, to give yourself completely
and let somebody give in to you.
To listen, when you need to let loose,
when you need to talk and forget.

To love, and take nothing back
and gain the world and even more.
To be selfless, will get you all
that you could never imagine.

It is these times where we remember
what it is to be human, to be loved.

All we ever want, ever need, is you.

Be Different

The darkest shadows are all the same
and tell glory that wonder is something to shame.
Unconventional, strange, and all kinds of weird;
they’re the conventional normalities that place one ahead.
So don’t allow freedom to falter your mind
when you know you’re different, out or inside.
The one who is different is a new kind, pure.
Blind hearts won’t see, of that, be sure.
So let the light lift you to a higher cloud,
and don’t be ashamed of what should make you proud.
For the new dawn is nigh
where you can keep your chin high.
When the world mistakenly thinks it’s higher, above,
don’t you fret. I say, you are loved.

Stormy Water Watcher

On the sea and stormy waves,
it doesn’t matter what you say
or what you think or what you do;
someone’s watching all of you.

But to do not fear;
the watcher hears
your cry, your call,
He hears it all.

He will not leave you.
Don’t despair, it’s true,
you have a friend, a Father;
He will lift you over the darkest water.
