CHOICES

If you listen to what’s said, if you listen to all the chat,

Some people will say this and some will say that.

But when you’re hearing all the voices

It still comes down to making choices.

Some people try to decide for you

What’s good or bad and what’s true.

Just listen to what they say

Then make a choice on what to keep and what to throw away.

When someone gets in your face, nose to nose and tries to tell you how it’s gonna go,

You have a choice to make, you can say yes or you can say no.

You can choose to stand toe to toe.

You can choose to walk away or if punches you should throw.

Just remember, for what you choose to say,

Sometimes for your choice, you have to pay.

Yes, you get to make the choice of the way it will be.

Just remember in life choices aren’t free.

If you choose to tell the boss what you do and don’t like,

He might choose to tell you to take a hike.

If you choose to tell your lover you’ve found someone else to meet,

You may come home and find she chose to throw all you stuff in the street.

You may choose to love someone for the rest of your life.

You may choose to ask her to be your wife.

If she chooses and feels the same thing,

You might choose to buy her a ring.

You may choose for your bill not to pay,

Only to find out the collection man chooses not play.

You may choose to take what you want even if you have to kill.

But then you may find out that sword has a double edge and your blood it will spill.

You may choose to travel down a gravel road so very long.

At the fork in the road, you may choose the road that leads to wrong.

You may choose not to worship and pray.

But then you’ll have to answer for that on judgment day.

We don’t choose when our life begins,

And most of us don’t choose when it will end.

From the beginning, no matter what you hear from the voices,

Until the day it ends, it’s all about choices.

THE ONE FOR ME

There can be only one you

Because only you can do the things you do.

You will always be the one for me.

When I close my eyes, you are what I see.

Your eyes are so true

Such a beautiful blue;

Or are they green?

I don’t know, but they’re the prettiest eyes I’ve ever seen.

I love your hair so red;

Or is it blond instead?

I don’t know, can’t really say,

But I think about you every day.

Your smile is such a treat

It’s so big and sweet;

Or is it soft and meek?

I don’t know, but you’re the one I want to keep.

 Your kiss really gets me off,

It’s so gentle and so soft;

Or is it hard with lots of tongue?

I don’t know, but when you kiss me, I’m done.

To touch your skin so Dark

Electrifies me with such a spark;

Or is it your skin so light?

I don’t know but it feels just right.

My oh me, me oh my

I love your long sexy legs that reach the sky;

Or is it your short legs that stop at your thigh?

I don’t know, but it looks so good I want to cry.

I think what I love the best

Is your perky little breast;

Or is it those huge 44 double D’s?

I don’t know, but they’re stuck in my memory.

I like the way you walk,

The way you make that big booty talk;

Or is it that no booty sexy crawl?

I don’t know but I want it all.

I love that high squeaky baby voice

Whenever I hear it I have no choice;

Or is it that low deep sexy talk?

I don’t know but it makes my legs bend when I try to walk.

You’re the one I want to be with all the time.

One look at you and I know you should be mine.

I close my eyes and you’re all I can see.

That’s why I know you’re the one for me.

THERE'S A HOLE IN THE SKY

There's a hole in the sky

And I don’t know why.

There's something I can see,

But I'm not sure what it could be.

 I think someone is coming down to get me, to get me.

I don't know where they're livin’,

It might be in heaven.

I don't know where they are,

It might be on a star.

 I think someone is coming down to get me, to get me.

I took a big sigh.

I think he can fly.

I just saw him pass by me.

He just flew up into a tree.

 I think someone is coming down to get me, to get me.

 I don't know of his goal.

I think he wants my soul,

Or maybe for a start

He just wants my body parts.

 I'm sure someone is coming down to get me, to get me.

If I'm gone in the blink of an eye,

If I don't get to say goodbye,

There's no need to cry,

I'll be up in the sky.

 I'm sure someone is coming down to get me, to get me.

I can't help but wonder why

As I watch the beam from the sky.

I begin to jump about,

Why me I start to shout.

 I'm sure someone is coming down to get me, to get me.

I'm not in bed,

But I think I'll wake up dead.

Don't be so sad,

It might not be too bad.

 I know someone is coming down to get me, to get me.

He is now in sight,

With his wings, he is in flight.

I take a deep breath,

Because I know he is the angel of death,

 I know he is coming down to get me, to get me.

He now stands before me,

His wings spread out like a tree.

There's a smile on my face,

Because I know I'm going to a better place.

 I know he's come down to get me, to get me.

There's a hole in the sky

And now I know why,

Because I know

It's time for me to go,

 Because he came down and now he's got me. he's got me.

THERE COMES A TIME

THERE COMES A TIME

(Written for my niece Cristine Lucas)

There comes a time in every young girl's life

When she wants to marry and be a young man's wife.

There comes a time when they need to remember to the end,

It's good to be lovers but first you have to be friends.

One has to be the ying to the other one’s yang.

One has to be the umbrella to the other one’s rain.

There comes a time when she wants a white gown and maids with frilly dresses on,

And a groom and groomsman in black tuxedos wearing Stetsons.

There comes a time they need to know marriage is about more than a bride and a groom,

It's about being together and letting your love bloom.

Try to keep things moving at an even pace.

Hold on to your love tight while giving it space.

 Never hide anything, leave nothing in the dark.

Keep things interesting, always looking for that spark.

You need to be the air that the other one breaths,

And be the tree for the other one's leaves.

You need to be the strength for the other's weakness within,

And be the savior for the other one's sin.

When mining for love, there's one thing you need as a tool,

When excavating true love, you need the golden rule.

 You need to be the left to their right, the right to their wrong.

You need to be the melody to their song.

You need to be the up to their down,

And to help keep the other one's feet on the ground.

Your dreams should be theirs and their dreams should be yours.

Keep this in your heart and your love will always be pure.

You have to be there for their every need,

And be the ground where they plant their seed.

If you want to make it through all the years,

You have to feel their pain and share their tears.

Just a little word from the wise,

Take turns on who has to compromise.

When you're walking down the aisle, remember something so true,

You are no longer one, now you are two.

Once you say I do and it’s over and done,

You've come together as two and now you are one.

There comes a time when a young girl finds a heart that is gold,

And she finds a lover that’s not afraid to be bold.

There comes a time when a young man reaches his goal,

And marries a young girl that touches his soul.

IN MY DREAMS

 

In my dreams, moving at the speed of light

Traveling on a moonbeam at night,

There's a place where everything is what it seems.

I just close my eyes and there you are, in my dreams.

In my dreams, there's a land that has no dimensions and knows no time.

I am the ruler of this land and it will always be mine.

In this domain, I am the king and you are my queen.

This place is my kingdom here in my dreams.

In my dreams is a place

Where I will always see your face.

I can love you without fear that away from me you might lean,

Because I know you will always be here in this dream.

In my dreams, there's nothing I can't do.

Your fantasies are mine and mine are for you.

When I'm with you I know my eyes have a gleam,

Because you make all my fantasies come true in my dreams.

Whether I'm wrong or whether I'm right

In my dreams for you, I can fight.

Even if what I'm doing is a sin or so it seems,

I will always win, in my dreams.

In my dreams, I can be your man of the hour.

I can slay the dragon and free you from the tower.

Anytime and anywhere for you I can plot and scheme.

It doesn't matter if it's day or night, in my dreams.

In my dreams, I can take care of your every need that could ever be,

Because I know that here in my kingdom you will forever be with me.

I want to take away all your pain so your love I will redeem.

I know no matter what happens you will always be here in my dreams.

I know when I awake you'll be gone,

But that's OK because it won't be for long.

All I have to do is close my eyes and ride down that moon beam,

And there you'll be waiting for me, in my dreams.
