LIVE LIFE


One day I may die for no reason, nothing in particular
My little one don't judge me when I no longer feel strong enough to hold a brave face
When no one can see it but the weight I carry breaks me down
Little one don't be embarrassed when what I could let go swallows me up
And I sink to the bottom of lifelessness 
My little one I want you to be proud of me
When this cancer takes me home and I can no longer sing you a song
Baby I love you don't think I loved to abandon you
It is only that I am sick and no one should know
So when my sickness overwhelms me and I choose to dive into afterlife head first
Love me like you loved me yesterday, tell Mama to sing to you the songs I sung
When I fall off the tree of life, do not cut me off the family tree 
Remember that I brought you forth to shine brighter
I pray you be kept away from all my illness by Sana
Let life protect you and keep you shining like pure light
Let love and life reflect on you the true meaning of humanity
Let you live life like life live and love like love would love
Live

THE PARADOX

The fact that the reason to hold on is bigger than the reason to give up Does not trivialize your pain The fact that you neither shed a tear nor made a sound Does not mean you never cried The fact that you smiled all through the ceremony does not mean you were happy The fact that you are alive and happy Does not mean you aren't dead A strange ghost animating your body Not your dream self The fact you woke up with a plan Does not mean you aren't drifting through life The fact that you love a song Does not mean it makes you happy The fact that you woke when the alternative seemed lucrative Tells that you have outsmarted the paradox once more

KINDRED

I wish I had a friend Whose loyalty would never bend Walk with me miles on end Be plain and never pretend A cynic who would blend But to me be a kindred A spirit that knows me Keep me and my secrets just as I would  To the very end
