Trust me for I know a lot
Not that you don’t
I’m sure you know, know a lot.
It’s just that in this time of strife
I’ve been here, I know how anger
Can eat away all happiness
Leaving nothing in your heart.
Please put away your revenge
Your ‘Get Even Tools’
Please see the magnitude
Of what lies before you
And forgiveness be your attitude.

No, you haven’t been
there for me or any of your next of kin
No, you haven’t been.
All about yourself
all about the great big me
thoughts of any other are non existent
never, haven’t been.
It could be tomorrow or the day after that
you’ll see the folly of your ways
step up, be all that
you haven’t
just haven’t been.

I have felt
and
still feel you here
I know
know you are forever
with me there
I’ll try my best
to let you lead me
where I need to go
Guiding me
thru
that treacherous path
Coming out to a world
full of love and beauty
unsurpassed.

No one said
nor did they show
the way to glory
and
all beauty to be bestowed
All was hidden
deep inside
barely known
to anyone outside
Why?
you say
Why would this be?
No one says
nor did they show
how to get there
the way to go
No one said
No one said
this I know.

Holding close, holding tight
making it thru
thru the dark, scary night
Tomorrow will be better
tomorrow I’ll see the light
leading to pleasure, happiness
and
all things of delight.

Feel the clouds
come rolling in
Hear the thunder clap
Experience rain
pouring down
Cleansing all
So once again
the world looks fresh
Growing
Reaching for the stars
because of rain
Life-giving rain.

Hear the bells
ring
their melancholy sound
Ringing, ringing
Throughout the valley
and
mountains all around
Sending messages, greetings
and words of sadness
so profound
Hear the bells
ringing
Ringing, ringing
Listen
listen to their sound.

I have been feeling
Not so great
Everything matters
But not at stake.
The life I live
Must be honoured
No too hard
Nor can’t be done.
Understand I can
And
Will overcome.

Seeing is believing
Believing is knowing
You are safe
In the arms of another
Going forward into the day
Joyous and alive.

Before the light begins to fade
See the beauty in all you survey
Let no small thing be overlooked
As you feel your heart pounding
In a life lived with gratitude
Giving all
No matter what comes to be
This, I think
We need to see.
