MY PRAYER

Protect all those 
That we love 
And hold dear
Help us to overcome 
The sum of our fears.
Behind every cloud 
There is a silver lining 
Teach us the way
And to appreciate  
how to find it.
May we realize 
That good times 
They don't always last
And may our tomorrows 
Be better than days past
Amen.

WHEN

When the stars
Fall from the sky
When newborn babies 
Cease to cry
When snowstorms 
Come in July 
When mockingbirds
No longer ask why 
When all tears
Miraculously dry
When no one will 
Or even try
...Maybe then i'll stop loving you!

FRIEND

You are
The brave one 
While i
cower in fear
You are
The strong one 
I can only count 
My tears
You are 
The wise one
I make the
Same mistakes over 
And over again 
But i am
The lucky one
I have you 
As my friend.
