PASSER BY



She was just a passer by
You did not know her name shame
Neither did you know from where she came Nor where she was headed
It never bothered your gut when you took your gun and pointed it to her face

She was just a passer by
You did not know her struggles and her pain or the emptyness she was trying to sate
All the same you cocked the gun and without reomorse asked her to drop her purse

She was just a passer by
Did you even wondered who could be waiting at home or wherever she was going
Why he, she or it would be waiting and what it would mean if she never got home
What was it that was going on in your mind when you picked her bag and pulled the trigger anyway?

She was just a passer by
Nothing to you more than a passer by
It never crossed your mind that she could be a mother, a wife, a friend, or the doctor who could save you from your death bed on the day you are cught in the crossfire

She was just a passer by whom you blew like wind out of earth
A passer by who never lived to tell you her story
Sadly she became part of your story when you learnt she was your loves sister
The one who out of love you lost love for humanity
The one you shot to buy an engagement ring and food for your sweet heart's visiting sister

Was she still a passer by when her little son asked your love, ''When will mommy come home?'' In bearly audible words?
Was she a passer by when your love cried her heart out for her loved one?
Was she still jus a passer by When she told you that she had been shot on the street you are most feared around?
Was she still a passer by?

HEART OUT

You are the one I think of when I am blank When I am happy you are the one I call I think of you when I am sad I pour it all on you And I feel it is all right I call you when I reach a problem's dead end Together we find a way to move to the other side of the wall With you I feel like the lake Galilee When Jesus was calming the storm You are my rain maker You make me feel hope You are the cloud that causes my worst storms When I know that I am the reason you are shedding tears I feel so comfortable beside you I can sing off key But it is all right because I wont be judged I can talk and talk Be sure that I will be heard I can keep the quiet of a grave And not be scared that it will be heard wrong Yes I can be headstrong Then we will fight and make peace I can be fearful when you are scared And we will curdle together I can hope when you have lost hope And you can hope when I have lost mine For that is how we become better You are beautiful to my eyes and ...

DREAMY DREAM

What is #life without a lofty #dream A dream that seems so distant But the #heart would not let go The heart would not stop believing Even if it were to stop beating A dream beyond death

DARK

He sits alone in a silent corner of a dark room Trying to make sense of everything Everything is senseless at that moment Life seems to be worth everything Yet everything is worthless in his eyes He wonders why God had to make life in the first place and hopes it is not blasphemy No one wants to step on the toe of God more so those who hope heaven will offer a better home He is ashamed to admit that deep down he longs to be home Home is not this dark room filled with self doubt, anxiety and sorrow Home is where in the least he feels nothing Everyday he tells people to keep hoping but he  has lost all hope The only hope he has is that he will one day hope again Not hope to be rich or famous But to be happy for just a moment He hopes to slip over on his happiest day That is his dream He calculates how best to make his wish come But such days are to pracious to waste on fatal thinking He looks up to God Hoping not to offend Him and he prays for hope He prays that someone would listen ...
