Our Minds

We all live in a world that slowly is sinking,
do we all have a mind and are we really thinking.

No color will decide whose mind is free,
I'm not better than you, nor are you than me.

For your face can fake but your mind will not,
Its the mind that reads, its the mind that talks.

So why are we worried about the color of the skin,
When we should really look at the mind within.

Break these walls and open your mind,
Love and peace is what you shall find.

If you look at the sea and not just the shore,
The bad is good and maybe more.

Erase the sketch in your mind that you slowly drew,
You don't need a picture, if your mind is true.

Tell me God

Eyes open wide and no sleep inside, I think of only one

Trapped inside the room alone, I have nowhere to run.

I hide inside my bed all day and think of all those days

I try to come back to my life, but in my mind it stays.

Oh Why! Oh Why! I have to cry when all I did was love

Tell me God, Oh mighty Lord you saw it from up above.

Was I wrong to send her flowers and tell her she was sweet?

Is that the way you bless Oh Lord and is that the way you treat?

I had to kill the child inside to let the man survive

If that’s the price you pay for love, I’m happy the kid just died.

But tell me Lord, if that’s the way it was suppose to go

Tell me if all this was fair, then I'll be glad to know.

Calm down my son and take a breath, it’s just a part of life

You did no wrong, be a little strong that’s My only advice.

Don’t cry My friend, this isn't the end, it’s just a little phase

Promise me you’ll learn from this and slowly I shall erase.

That is what life is and it’s just a way of telling you my friend

That you have to cry and weep and fight to make it to the end.

For once you fail and once you fall, you'll realize the pain

And then you know what went wrong, before you try again.

So close your eyes to get some sleep and leave the thought behind

The night shall pass with ease my love it’s just the silly mind.

Drop that Brush

I take a brush and then some paint

And close my eyes to see

A picture of the girl I paint

Who’s waiting out there for me

I paint her lips and then her face

And then I see her smile

The smile I see all night and day

And not just once in a while

I quickly paint her brows and nose

And then slowly paint her eyes

Deep and silent place of love

The one where heaven lies

All black and long I paint her hair

And lose myself just there

Her face is painted subtle and divine

Just like a simple prayer

I said myself I’ll love her like

No one has ever before

I’ll Keep her happy and make her smile

And then maybe some more

I rest my brush and wipe my smile

And open my eyes to see

There’s no picture there’s no girl

I’m just talking to me

I can’t paint her like I want

And then simply compare

I’ll have to know and talk to her

To be honest and fair

For I’m no Prince to choose and say

That’s how she should be

I’m just a guy with a simple heart

And that’s how I’m going to be

So I let her choose and give her space

To see if I’m any good

If that’s the way she finds me nice

Then that’s the way she should

I drop my brush and wipe the paint

And open my eyes to see

I simply have to love the girl

Who’s waiting out there for me

Talk to me son!

Dad:
"Talk to me son and sit with me
And tell me what is wrong
Talk to me son and tell your story
Tell me even if its long

Oh tell me why you talk to your phone
More than you talk to me
Tell me why you're in your room
And not outside with me

Tell me why you laugh and smile
When I'm off to work all day
Tell me why you weep and cry
Oh Just tell me all today

I know I couldn't give all the love
That you deserved as a kid
I know I should have cared for you
More than I ever did

But now I'm here to love you son
Love you from the start
And now I'm here to be your dad
And I love you from my heart

So take my hand and grab it tight
And rest your head in me
And close your eyes and tell me all
And tell me what you see!"

Son:
"Don't be sad you are my dad
I'm just a little weak
You never cared to ask me that
And now u want to speak

I love you lots and not my phone
I want you to be with me
I want you to hold my hand & play
I want your eyes to see

I weep and cry and I miss you dad
Coz I never see you near
I laugh and smile all day long
To hide my little fear

Fear that you won't listen to me
And my story that is not long
Just about the hug I need
To make good all what's wrong

For you have the money and family
But not the time we need
We want you to be with us dad
And we'll be with you indeed!

I love you dad and I always will
But I want you to be my dad
Not a person who comes to ask
What are the problems I had!

I want you to be my dad always
And not just for a day
You've always lived in my heart
And I want you to always stay!"

Dad:
"Oh I'm sorry son for all the time
I couldn't be your dad
But now I'll love you even more
Than all the love I had

I'll be your dad every day and
Not just for a while
Come to me son and give me a hug
and show me that hidden smile."
