My Simple Crib

For my friends. . .

friends are the flowers in the garden of life,
they help you through times of trouble and strife;

there’s nothing likefriends to make a heart sing,
true friends will share with you most everything;

they will not abandon you in times of need,
they aren’t overcome by envy or greed;

friends are the icing on life’s great big cake,
real friends will give and allow you to take;

i don’t know how i would survive without friends,
they applaud my beginnings and mourn my sad ends;

tell me, please tell me, what would i do,
if i didn’t have a garden full of friends just like YOU!.

If All Who Hate Would Love Us

If all who hate would love us, And all our loves were true, The stars that swing above us, Would brighten in the blue;  If cruel words were kisses, And every scowl a smile, A better world than this is, Would hardly be worth while.

Alone

No one can see the pain that we hide, They’re happy for us to keep it inside, Our fear is our own; they don’t want to know, Why sould we involve them; why should it show.  You live your whole life in confusion and fear, The need to feel something unbearably near, Half of you living, Half of you gone, And inside you know what your doing is wrong.
