Paint a picture,
A beautiful mind,
Blurred thoughts,
Bad times,
Fading memories,
Awesome ideas,
Good times,
A perfect portrait.
-
The beginning,
I’ll always live in the beginning even at the end
That feeling when you start a race, a project, or meet someone special,
That rush, that excitement,
The uncertainty of the outcome,
The hope a new day brings,
Live every day like it’s a beginning.

The tongue of man is like a double edged sword,
One side sings your praises,
While the other cuts deep at a strike,
Be strong I tell you,
For the words of men are shallow,
Not deep enough to drown you.
When the tides are good or bad,
Keep your head above,
Float through the currents of the cheers and lies,
Be strong I tell you,
For you can sink in shallow words,
Not deep enough to drown you.-
What do you see when you look in the mirror?
Do you see a reflection,
An image without troubles,
Without purpose, without a mind,
Sworn solely to replicate actions.
Look deeper,
Do you see a person,
A being with worries,
With a purpose and a soul,
One who has the power to create.
Who are you?
A reflection or a person.-
I am,
Forged from my mother's womb,
A product of streets, people, books and words,
Thoughts from my everyday,
Memories from times past,
Hopes for the future,
Dreams that never go grey,
I am,
What you've made me,
What society showed me,
What I see,
What I believe,
What I choose to be,
What I've made me.-
Oh my dear rest!
My one true companion,
My one true friend,
Let me be your minion,
Til my very end,
Oh my dear rest,
For you I'll always crave,
With all life's zest,
Til my very grave.-
Lord give me the strength to complete that which I've started,
The courage to face my fears,
And faith that overshadows my worries.-
