Love is Wonderful

Love is wonderful
To see young couples
with their boo
Love is a gift

Love is wonderful
when two say I do
for the two become one
and each day loves anew

Love is great
when two cares each others sake
a knife duller than one
cutting the wedding cake
can not spoil loves awake

Love is beauty
expressed in many ways
love can extend the length
of ones days

To see two taken adrift
blown by the wind
falling in loves rift
is a beautiful thing

Man becomes satisfied
woman's beauty magnified
Love creates life
and paints a pretty picture

The currency of love
makes life much richer
high quality love
brings to the shore eternity

Look you'll see many are two and yet one
neither death could do them apart
the vows of marriage
the strongest of any bond

Out lives their lives on earth
as their souls walks the shore of eternity
fairly course prints in the sand
the two souls graces the land
holding the other's hand

Love is wonderful
when shared only with one
true love the definition of happiness
made under the sun

I Rise

I may get knocked down but you better look forward to me getting up.
I might be set back but you can count on me stepping forward.
I might seem small but underneath there is a giant confined beneath my skin
Who am I? A warrior that rose….

For I have seen life good bad happy and sad
Just as my triumphs have made people mad
My sorrows have made people glad
Yet I rise. Who am I? A warrior that will rise….

When I say I am invincible it's cause you’ve said I’m invisible
These words are neither of cockiness or arrogance
But from the mouth of a man whose life is well spent
Calculated, understood I keep my wisdom under the hood
So you know me only after I’ve stood when you didn’t think I could
You said I wouldn’t
Yet I rise. Who am I? A warrior that will not die…

With your false smiles you give me ground
When you look I’m all around in your face
Do you still have any mace left?
Where are the insults you so carelessly sprayed in my face?
You must have finally realized I won the race.
But don’t worry I will show you grace keeping you out my space
Unlike Myspace you don’t ever have to invade my place
I am but a memory that you can erase….
Yet I rise…Who am I a warrior who never dies…

I’m in your head while you lay in bed plotting against me
Did you realized you opened up spots for me
People didn’t know who I was till you ran your mouth
Now I’m the talk of the town
You thought you’d bring me down…
Yet I rise…Who am I…A warrior who has risen

You wonder why I refuse to give up and quit
well dying aint my lick
nope ya see I keep on tickin
not givin a flipin about the pain
you’ve caused by trippin
better tie your shoes and follow your cues
before you fall at your own dues
did I say that out loud?
my voice is no longer lost
unlike Abel my voice speaks not from rocks
cause I rise…Who am I…? a warrior who can’t die

Whether you love or hate me
just know you can never break me
cause my work will be everlasting
forever in your mind as your browse history
hopefully you will come to discover on the day I go die
that my words will never lie
I tell you where I'm going and get there by your hand
your persecution only fuels my desire to excel
I've done the impossible and still find room to make all things possible
there is a reason why I stay above you
cause I'm several steps ahead of you
with my smile I show you no emotion
but the deeper water runs still
step on me
And yet I rise...who am I? A warrior that won't die...


in my grave I will speak to you
in your books I will lead you
in your heart I will discover you
only to uncover you
no need to wear a mask instead get a casket
no not for me but for your lies
like me when the dust settles the truth will rise
so even when I die and go silent by the grave
always remember I am a warrior forever risen
though I may become the Earth’s spoil
buried deep in fertile soil
Yet I rise..who am I? A Warrior who won’t die
