Understand Me
The world is too hard a place
For me to try to live
everybody expects too much
They expect more than I can give
but what they don't know
Is that I can't give anymore
All they know how to do is take
as if I were some discount store
All I want is someone to care
I have feelings too
I'm not some kind of robot
I'm just the same as you.
I don't think I'm asking too much
I just want to be understood
It's sad to feel I don't belong
and even worse to know I could
I'm just another person in this world
and that's all I want to be
But I wish that someone on this earth
would attempt to understand me
I know I'm not the brightest person
this world has ever known
but everyone putting me down all the time
Is making me feel alone.
Maybe there are some people around
who except me as I am
But then there are some, I know
That really don't give a damn
but thats okay, cause they have
a right to feel, whether it's known or not
and my feelings too, are real
If people would start to realize that
I wouldn't feel so down
I just want people to notice my
feelings and know I'm around.
I'm a very complicated person
and not easy to understand
I know it's true, but I can't change
because I am the way I am.

Wings Of Birds
On the wings of a bird,flying
through a storm, searching for
a place to land.
To rest my weary heart.
To find Life amid the clouds,
of doubt and pain of lifes
unexpected changes,
that seem to come are way.
We drift together on the winds,
of the storm we ride that
we all call life, from which
we can not hide, we've
rescued each other from lifes
falls, giving confort, answering prayers, fullfilling dreams,
and healing our souls, because we're
connected by a bond that we
share, for now our eternal
Love we shall share.

The Stars
As I gaze out into the night
and see the star's shinning bright,
seeing the moon's glowing light.
My mind wander's to a distance
so far, I think of you
and just where you are.
Our you feeling what I feel,
dreaming what I'm dreaming?
The stars sparkle in the night sky,
and it makes me wish that
you were here by my side.
To share with me the night sky.
the view is ours to enjoy.
to draw each other closer still,
Deep within our own world.
That only we two can share.

When First We Meet
We've talked, for months it seems on-line,
and even on the phone.
We've laughed and cried,
shared and smiled.
Now the time has come that we shall meet
in person, face to face.
I wonder what you'll think of me.
Will I still make you smile?
Will my real life kiss, be just as good as the
cyber ones we've shared.
Will I be as you dreamed or,,
maybe not as good.
These things I've thought about today
as I anticapate tommorow.
Why do I wonder, or worry what you think,
why do I even care.
I guess because for you my friend
I do more then care.

The Pain I Feel
There's an emptiness deep inside
my heart were once
there was deep love.
The pain so bitter now.
I was blind were your concerned
thinking that you cared,
but once again I took the chance,
and, once again got burned.
Why do
I try I do not know,
foolish as it seems
maybe it's me who is at fault,
I'm just unlovable it seems.

Beyond the Hills
The sunsets beyond the hiils
it's glow begins to fade.
and as it drops below the ridge
the clouds turn from red to gray
my thoughts follow the setting
of the sun,
as i wonder
how you are?
I've longed to share these
days with you, but you've
decided to move on,
that's the choice that
you have made, and that's
just the way it goes.
You see, you say, you
love another, one who doesn't
really and truly love you.
I try to understand how that
can be, and it's truly
not how I see you.
I saw you as a man,
deserving of true love, to
have to hold, to share
with all your life, but
once again the choices
yours, and yours alone.

The Games
The games we play, to amuse
ourselves, how foolish we can be,
thinking that it's all innocent
flirting beyond the computer screen.
But do you ever stop to realize that,
beyond that screen sit's a soul who feels,
and cries, and hopes and dreams,
with feelings that are real.
think of this the very next time you type
that simple message of "HI"
Make sure the words you share,
are from a heart that cares.
Don't take the chance that you have met,
someone, just like you
who only wants to flirt and play
and never go beyond.
