She Is Love

She is love, the dawn bells ring
and the birds they start to sing.
She is love the voices call
but she wont hear at all.

She is love in the morning
in the noon and night
She is love in every hour-
sending clouds across my sight.

She is love, hanging in the air
and sprinkled on the ground.
She is love with every breath
every time i turn around.

She is love from yesterday
and in tomorrows dreams
She is love in shadows
and things that will never be.

She is love forever
burnt into the stars
she is love in time and space,
but only from afar......

Declaration

I will not fall down
upon my knees to pray,
to the mockers who defy me
in the empty words they say.

I will not shrink away
be removed from where i stand.
Instead to hold up tall,
no quivering in my hand.

I will not allow me
to be beaten to the floor
and will always remember
the things that I adore.

I shall not bend
or force my ways to mend
to suit the cut of others
and whittle myself to ends.

No one will make me sing
in the tune that i detest,
or walk along
my swagger now repressed.

I will not shy away
from the things i know are mine
I will force into my space
among the stars that shine.

I will bare my name with pride.
it's reputation hand forged by mind.
And talk in my own voice,
not someone elses they designed.

I'll use the faults of others
to strengthen up mine own
never fear of my mistakes
or forget how much i've grown.

I will not count my blessings
for vanitys delight
nor talk upon my sorrows
into the distant light.

I will never walk away
not until the bitter end
and wont give up on someone
if there's still a chance to mend.

I shall not fear the close
nor belittle my beginning.
And share the blame with others,
even if im winning..
