THE COST

You don't realize 
The pain or the cost
How much 
I have suffered 
Or how much that 
I have lost.
Cause lovin you 
Is never easy
All things come 
With a price.
But then again 
I never expected 
That the sacrifice 
Would be all mine. 
Thought we were 
In this together 
That you would 
Be there 
Thru stormy weather.
But you left 
As did the sun
Now i am
The only one 
...Standing in the shadows 
Of love.  

REALITY

In this reality 
Where life 
Is its totality 
Where we remain 
Frozen 
By the same 
Fears
That we had 
Before 
Afraid of the 
Unknown 
And to walk thru
That door 
Where enlightenment 
And uniformity 
Are one and
The same 
Could it be
That sunshine 
Mixed with rain 
Will lead us home
Again? 

REFUSE

I refuse 
To give up
Or to 
Give in
I refuse 
To let go
Before it 
Begins 
I refuse 
To fall down 
Without a fight 
I refuse 
To make excuses 
Even though 
I might  
...Not win
