hold on do you see me standing here? i know there are times when i seem a lil lost its all a part of who i am an i'm still finding my path i've seen too much and lost a lil more so i cant always see whats up or down i just force a smile to hide the frown and hang on i go thru the motions when its too much to bare and pray to any god that'll hear i have a lot to share what's not been stolen yet and even though i've known fear i refuse to be afraid i'm still standing here dont get me wrong my knees are black from the weight i bare but i've got a strong soul and a stronger back bone you can push me go ahead an try but i'll push back and i wont cry i'd rather make love than fight any war but life has been a battle for me and still i hold on i travel far and wide if only in my mind cuz my body's chained by poverty and responsibility and they never seem to let up for very long i take the bitter with the sweet and i know that even with the losses i've incurred i'm still total i'm still complete and progressing naturally and as tough as it may be i continue to hold on and because i can hold tight i know that one day i'll share my heart share my life but only with some one as strong as i someone that has the knack just like me to keep it real and when all else fails and the dawn looks dark i'll have them and they'll have me and we'll clasp hands and just hold on. this is inspired by 1 my life and 2 the song hold on by tom waits
to each person friend or foe I have trek that I must make & you each are but a part some more dear some more intricate but each a part & in the long or short you each have a place in my heart may the next year of my life be brighter if for no other reason than you were reason for me to smile to frown to cuss to stomp my foot to hold a hand or give a hug to make plans to make love ! Serenity, danielle LYRICS "If I Ever Leave This World Alive" If I ever leave this world alive I'll thank for all the things you did in my life If I ever leave this world alive I'll come back down and sit beside your feet tonight Wherever I am you'll always be More than just a memory If I ever leave this world alive If I ever leave this world alive I'll take on all the sadness That I left behind If I ever leave this world alive The madness that you feel will soon subside So in a word don't shed a tear I'll be here when it all gets weird If I ever leave this world alive So when in doubt just call my name Just before you go insane If I ever leave this world Hey I may never leave this world But if I ever leave this world alive She says I'm okay; I'm alright, Though you have gone from my life You said that it would, Now everything should be all right She says I'm okay; I'm alright, Though you have gone from my life You said that it would, Now everything should be all right Yeah should be alright

let it pour down down down all over, in & thru me washing clean my body, my heart, my mind, my soul, ME the thought sounds so sweet but unlike the rain i hear bubbling in the street a love like that is but a mere dream but man what a dream let it pour down, down, down all over , in & thru me washing clean my body, my heart, my mind, my soul, ME it's a feeling in the air kinda like a buzz in my ear our eyes met & something just clicked somewhere it all became clear but what it is i myself am still unaware it feels real good though in this moment so what may come and what has been man, look me in the eye i just don't care i live in the present this gift that's been bestowed on you and on me this was but a seed planted in the past only blooming as we do thru the strength of our shear will though fertile plain or rocky crest in this moment alone i believe i know the direction that is best & like a compass facing north i see you so let it pour down, down, down all over, in & thru me washing clean my body, my heart, my mind, my soul, ME in this moment in this thing i believe! djcb 11/11/08 Lyrics: Tonight the lamplight swirls and glistens Melting itself upon my face I'm hanging my silhouette near the shoreline I'm swimming underneath in the noontime Will I ever know what's wrong with me Will I ever see your hand again in mine Tonight the rain is pelting rooftops There is no fire to melt the cold I'm straining to hear a human whisper And I'm painting images on the soft stone Now I'm drinking alone Amidst these figures of stone I'll raise the glass once again Then lay my head on the pillow.
