HOW I FEEL

There's a chip on my shoulder 
Sometimes it's heavy 
Sometimes I feel tall

There's steel in my spine
Sometimes I'm strong 
Sometimes I'm stiff 

There's fire in my heart 
Sometimes it burns 
Sometimes it hurts

It's a different feeling 
Being hurt by those you love 
Who without a care
Just throw out some words 

Some you bear
Some you have to reject 
Trusting in your gut 
That  it's all but love

Sometimes I speak too soon
Sometimes I speak out of turn
Sometimes I'm kind, sometimes I'm harsh
Sometimes I'm right, sometimes I'm wrong

Sometimes I'm impatient 
Sometimes I'm time itself—
Placid

You encourage others who felt the same
But when it's time for yours
It can be a lot to take
Truly, I feel 

There's a chip on my shoulder 
Sometimes it's heavy 
Sometimes I feel tall

There's steel in my spine
Sometimes I'm strong 
Sometimes I'm stiff 

There's fire in my heart 
Sometimes it burns 
Sometimes it hurts...

MARY HAD SOME LITTLE WORDS

On this special day, I wanted to take a moment to send you my warmest birthday wishes.

HAVEN'T FOUND THE ANSWER YET

I searched the four corners of the wind I listened hard, I heard the birds sing I saw them take to flight and fly free I saw power in their wholesome wings  I went deep down the ocean depths  The primordial power of the earth I felt  Was ever so majestic the deeper I went Words fail to capture the essence  I climbed the mountains of the highest peaks Caught the sunrise on the tallest trees Saw so much beauty that I couldn't breathe Saw greatness that made my heart to freeze  In high spirits, but my energy spent  Still seeking answers, but I couldn't make a dent I searched the secrets of the seven seas I was put to bed by the gentle breeze  It doesn't matter if I spend my last cent   These answers are worth more per every cent  Yet on my strength I can't depend  To the grace of God, I must defer For in the fire, I found no answer In the earthquake, I heard no response  In the thunder, there was no reply  But in the g...
