Distance

Distance near
And distance far
Distance between
Distance we our

Distant from friends
And family too
So far apart
Like enemies do

We live our lives
With no remorse
Afraid to live
And to be coarse

We prance around
That which is true
And won't admit
What we must do

It seems sometime
That we conform
To all that is
Considered the norm

We hide our true
Feelings and thoughts
Afraid that we
Will be caught

And criticized
For our beliefs
For our true thoughts
And that we keep

To ourselves
Locked tight away
Deep within us
Never to say

People should not
Pretend to be
Something they aren't
They can't foresee

The deep effect
This can produce
On their lives
There's no excuse

So this I say
To all of you
Don't hide the truth
And show the view

That is yourself
And nothing more
For this is you
It is your core

A Shattered Life

A shattered life
A broken dream
A wasted smile
A lost belief

Time destroyed
Money lost
Feelings shared
And then tossed

We live our lives
With fear and doubt
Afraid to try
Afraid to shout

Nothing is real
It's all a lie
A front put up
To block our eyes

We drift through life
With no resolve
Our lives begin
To just dissolve

Will we live on?
After we're gone?
Will people know?
What we have done?

We try to show
Out deepest side
Our true desire
Our every fine

What do we get?
Nothing but pain
For all our work
And all our shame

But we push along
With heads head high
In hope the we
Will find out why

And find the love
We've been searching for
Through all our trials
And all the doors

So don't give up
Your day will come
When you will be
Happy as a mum

This life is just
A flash you see
In all existence
In all we see

Time will go one
When we do leave
This world in which
We've made our being

So make it count
Each moment true
And don't forget
That you are you

You And Me

I love you
And you love me
We love each other
That's plain to see

It's in our hearts
And on our minds
A truer love
You cannot find

There are no words
That can convey
This love we feel
Each and every day

For between us dear
The bond is strong
No one can break
Nor ever wrong

We are as one
There is no doubt
That we shall be
Together throughout

Our Destiny

You are my dear
And don't forget
Our destiny's true
And has been set

We're together now
Our souls are one
In a fiery passion
Hotter than the sun

My wish for you
Is that you see
That this is true
And meant to be

Our destiny's set
There's no going back
For we have each other
There's nothing we lack

Our love runs deep
For each other true
'Cause together dear
There's nothing we can't do

My Angel From Heaven

My angel from heaven
My one true love
You're special to me
And sent from above

You're in my thoughts
And on my mind
Every day and night
All the time

My love is deep
For you I know
It will not sway
Nor ever bow

I wish you were here
In my loving arms
To keep you safe
From every harm

But this I know
We're linked in heart
And I say to you
Till death do us part

Ode to the Altima

For years it ran
Without any jams
Then all the sudden
I knew it was slammed

It came without warning
Like a thief in the night
White smoke emerged
Then coolant took flight

Head gasket blown
Oh the pain
The car still drove
But wouldn't be the same

You were a good car
And faithful friend
You set the bar
But it had to bend

You saw a millennium
And witnessed a war
But never again
For fate's at the door

Your destiny's set
There's no going back
This is the end
And that's a fact

You died far too young
At an age of just eight
But you had a good life
So I guess this is fate

It was coming for years
Or so I was told
But you were a fighter
And always quite bold

So this one's for you
As I raise up a glass
A toast to your life
And one to my past
