When I reach out,
You grab my hand.
When I reach out,
You listen to my words.
When I reach out,
You're there.
Let’s go back before it starts,  
Before the war, the bombs, the shattered hearts.  

Before the time when peace was bright,  
Palestine stood in golden light.  
Then strangers came, seeking space,  
And Palestinians gave with grace.  

All was well—till greed crept in,  
A slow betrayal, a growing sin.  
One by one, they claimed the land,  
Till war was forced by their own hand.  

Have you ever thanked the ones  
Who sheltered you beneath their sun?  
But kindness was not what you sought,  
Only power—only "mine" was taught.  

You took their homes, you took their lives,  
Yet still, their prayers rise and rise.  
You paint the land in black and red,  
But judgment waits for what lies ahead.  

They hold a place in paradise,  
While fire awaits your sacrifice.  
You chase the world that fades so fast,  
While they seek peace that ever lasts.  

We pray to God to grant their plea,  
For justice, truth, and dignity.  
Go ahead—do as you will,  
But history speaks, and time stands still.
I once wasn't scared Hoping love was for me No longer Maybe enclose  your shame lust isn't all fun and games both sides loose fun in the rain after perception of a actual connection we would flee in opposite directions It was taken a toll leaving us old and dull
Hope someone enjoys take care you matter!!!

But
i want to think— that is it!
i want to recall them
to reconcile with them
i want to make peace with my memories

I tried looking away
your beauty still lingers on me
mesmerizingly evil.
A shame to look at
I rather bleed on paper.
A sin to think about
I much rather talk in sly secret.
Suggestions?
Being fed to the wolves isn't too bad.
get away from this dangerous,
Devious thought of
desiring you.
It's always good to take a break from anything;
until the break is permanent
You are the LIGHT,
of an ILLUMINATING SOUL,
That'll BRIGHTEN up the DARKNESS,
Everywhere you go.

A LIGHT so BRIGHT,
YOU HAVE SUCH A GLOW,
When you enter the scene,
Onlookers will KNOW,

People can't help but
to see your SHINE,
Your SHINE is so LOUD
Others will go BLIND.

PEOPLE will see YOU,
Oh, YEAH THEY DO!!!
Your LIGHT is being NOTICED,
IS WHY HATERS DON'T LIKE YOU!!!

GLOW Like a LIGHT BUG,
Get out and SHINE,
As FAR AS the HATERS,
DON'T PAY THEM NO MIND!!!

CONTINUE TO GLOW,
WHEREVER YOU GO,
BE A LIGHT THAT STANDS OUT,
SO, THAT THIS DARK WORLD WOULD KNOW!!!

It was never about
Taking the easy route
I was just desperate
And made a last ditch effort
To get the pain out

I don't want to fuuck around
I rather not find out
I don't want to hear I'm not doing what I need too
But if I don't I might never win a bout
This isn't a warning or challenge
I don't want to prove what I'm about
I've gone toe to toe with life all my life
I wouldn't mind a little mid season drought

Most people get the benefit of the doubt
"Eventually they'll figure it out"
What the helll's that all about?
I'm expected to master it in an instant or I'm out
