Many Times

I tell myself I know better
yet it seems my heart does not hear
cause it leads me into temptation
that I know I cannot bear

My decisions aren't always based on fact
damn feelings seem to lead me
I ask myself when will I learn
feelings are deceiving!!

Many times I try to shake
that little voice inside
that tells me I must follow my heart
and my head is along for the ride

Damn you little voice, I say
your words I no longer hear
Starting now my head's in the lead
with my heart bringing up the REAR!!!!

:D

When I Look

WHEN I LOOK

at the trees
and the sky
hear the wind
so alive
who am i
to erase all the pain
that it sees
and it feels
does it hear
all the sounds
all around
does it know who believes
im so scared
theres no peace
common ground
will it cease
who will know
no one left
to control all the money
no more pride
its the fog in the eye
of our soul

Who am I?

I am what I see in the mirror
I am what makes me smile
I am what drives me to succeed
I am what's inside of me

I will not be what someone desires
I will not be what they see
I will not be driven by worry and guilt
I will not refuse to be me

I will however compromise
some selfish part of me
that focuses on all my wants
instead of just my needs

I know that when it happens
I may not think it's me
but I know it's time to realize
life is WE not ME

:D
