POETRY TELLS A STORY

Poetry tells a story of the scene playing in the heart

In one perfect moment shares with the world feelings lock inside the heart

It tells the story of what the mind is passing through

The secrets, the lies and hatreds found inside the heart

The fears, doubts, unresolved emotions and feelings

It tells the thought of a mother weeping

Feelings shared help ease the burdens in the heart

Everyone got a story to tell to the world

The wishes and dreams, and the beauty of growing up

The memories and thoughts of life when its turf

It’s all about letting go feelings you want to share

Poetry remind us that someone out there cares

Without poetry, life will be unfair

WAR

There is a war going on

On whose side are you on?

Will you give up hope because you're stranded?

Accept fate that life can't be changed

You've got to fight until victory is attained

We're living in a world created by a divine God

It's unwise to accept defeat because you're scared

It's not right to run away from challenges because you're scared

There is war in the east, war is the west

War in the south and war in the north

There is war everywhere, war inside the heart

Every day, all I see is war, but only the weak are defeated

Today, you've got to make a choice

Choose to stay behind and fight for a course

You can't achieve great things if you're holding back

Search into your heart, for you will find the right track

BIRD IN MY HAND

I've got a bird in my hand so fond of me

Fly little bird the world to see

Don't let the atmosphere stop your dream

Fly so high with joy, for you are free

See the world and beautiful places feel

Nest your love and joy on a special tree

You are free, that’s all that need be

Oh little bird
