~ For You ~
Lay me down beside you
I'll always be right there
My body, my warmth, my everything
When you need it... take it.
Close your eyes and feel it
Feel me easy your weary body;
Your bleeding heart;
Your busy mind.
I want to wrap my arms around you
Protect you from the hurt
The people who will cross your path,
And those that have before
My tortured mind and failing body
Ache to have you near
But I close my eyes
I'm warm - I can't help but feel your here
I fell in love with your mind
Your character, words & rhymes
Then your voice, laughs & sighs
Your midnight tunes and daybreak goodbyes
Now it's everything, just you
All you arre and the only way you know to be
Good bye is not forever
I tell myself each day
A time will come when there will be
A place for you and me

~ A.I.D.S ~
Acquired
Immune
Diffinciency
Syndrome
A disease that sweeps through the world as if it knows No guilt -No pain - No heartache - No Love
I ache to my very core, for those who lose
Ultimately who doesn't when involved with this... A.I.D.S
To watch someone die of such a cruel, degrading disease would make me surely die myself
I am so afraid to be struck down
It scares me more than any one thing
To be absolutely powerless...
No Cure, No vaccine, No mercy on anyone who steps in it's path
Yet I feel such a passion towards this thing called A.I.D.S
Maybe it is because it is so devastating and heartwrenching
Unexplainable to me
But when I see those images on TV
I feel in my heart I need to help
Yet all I can seem to do is cry
Cry for those helpless individuals and lost souls

~ Mirror ~
Try to hold your head up high
Be proud of who you are
For because your spirit left you
Does not mean that it is dead
Look harder at yourself... you'll see it deep inside
Set that mirror aside
Close your eyes... and let it thrive
