Lost Souls
For
my nephews
Kyle,
you lost soul... Taking on the burdens Until you lost control!
Why do you think you must pay? Rest assured,
for you...I will pray
Lying frail there now so weak Tell me what is it you seek? Your mind is racing out of control, My
Darling, you need to let go!
Korey, You seem sly, oh so slick Wanting us to believe... You know the tricks. You
work, party, then you play, You have a girlfriend to end your day!
You control the house, You think you have
command Come home to your roots, See where you stand!
Shayne, now you I believe Have not had much of a reprieve. You
have hung in there, you've stuck it out Never telling your father to get out! For this I admire,trust,respect. This
is when "No matter what" Comes into effect.
My gift to these three lost souls: All three have come a very long
way My love is so strong, I need to say,
Kyle: An angel that glows... A harp she holds... You can see
the light , to lead you back home The harp for music in your life, So you know, you're never alone!
Korey: A
lighthouse that shines, Come home...when you have time You're like a light that never goes out, You look at your
life, never pout Seems you never have any doubt!
Shayne: A ship that is always lit, So you can travel...relax
a bit Never forget that you are strong, Do some things that you long When you are spent, can no longer roam... It's
guiding light will lead you home

IF
I COULD GIVE YOU ANYTHING
If I could give you anything. I'd give to you myself I may not be
to worthy, Not worth of praise or wealth.
If I could give you anything-- I'd give to you all time; So you
could find yourself and grow, And someday just be mine.
If I could give you anything Give back all that you've
lost, I'd give you what you needed, No matter what the cost.
If I could give you anything-- Like love and
hope and health, I doubt if it would be enough Until you learn to love yourself!

***MICHAEL***
FOR MY YOUNGEST!!!!
I picture your face... I know it's true, Another minute flew by Just thinking
of you.
I sit here...I wonder I dream, I daze, People around me... Try to follow my gaze.
Smiling,
grinning...wondering too How many minutes flew by Just thinking of you
I close my eyes, What do I see... Your
cute little face, Staring back at me!
I am always happy, Dreaming about you... I could sit here for hours... Just
thinking... too!!
