Poem: Compassion

Every creature breathes this air
we live under one atmosphere
so why kill one another
the thought makes me shutter
imagine if you're in the outcasts shoes
no friends and nothing to lose
because of you they pick up a knife
think about your words before you end a life
cause these people have family too
life and a future just like you do
one thing missing is an understanding ear
so reach out and say ill dry your tear
with my compassion no more nightmares
yes compassion, a friend who cares.

Poem: Breaking Day

If i tumble over and cry
will you think less of me
no matter how forcibly i try 
I know these tears will soon be free

I just can't be whats expected
to be made of concrete
pains spreading my hearts infected
now im draggin my two feet

For you i have walked through
this desert for awhile
I'm to broken so ism through
Wish i could give you the Nile

So please dont think less of me
if i have to some day say
i here by decree
this my breaking day

Poems: Grandpas Eyes

What lies behind Grandpa's eyes?
a love from above you can't deny
a rope of hope that never goes away
kindness that stays with each day

What lies behind Grandpas voice?
a tone that's flown with calmness of choice
a melody spoken so sweet its reassuring
yet so mysterious it keeps you mind turning

What lies inside grandpas mighty heart?
Its so big i don't know where to start
he has a compassion intensely deep
he has his own but will take your heart to keep

I know he took mine to heaven with him
and my love for him will never grow dim
In memory of my Grandpa
