sadness

when sadness rolls in like a fog
and clouds the mind and senses
there is nothing we can do
as sadness breaks through all defenses

and the only way to survive
is to understand
that the sadness like everything else
just wants an open hand

so do not fear the sadness
embrace the facts you feel
to elude the madness
you just need to make it real

leave the complicated
you must simplify
and you'll find the sadness
is a tear in your eye

and when the sadness rolls down like a tear
it clears the mind and senses
there is nothing we can do
as sadness breaks through all defenses

and the only way to
is to understand
is the sadness like everyone else
just wants an open hand

so take a hand in yours
and overcome the fear
hold a hand in yours
let someone kiss your tear

take a hand in yours
show someone you care
hold a hand in yours
when you start to share
you will the feel sadness disappear

take a hand in yours
show someone you care
hold a hand in yours
when you start to share
you will the feel sadness disappear

anybody listening?

feeling that girl feeling if you know the song that starts out something like is there anybody going to listen to my story... sigh and alas and all... i write so many words in so many places (more than the links can lead you to even if you found time to follow every link which is unrealistic unless you chose to spend years reading my babblings and rhymes and stuff) and only a few in this life that i know of even began to attempt to read everything and i still hope for the one who might get close to that goal...

but first, i wonder if anybody still has that goal or ever will again...

it is a sad feeling
lonely
wanting to share so much
only
there is no one sharing
is anyone caring
no one here
are you there?

it is such a sad feeling
silence
feeling the world so much
violence
fear is all they're sharing
is anyone caring
no one here
are you there?

how many children must starve to death tonight...
before you will acknowledge something is wrong?
how many dollars will you spend on killing tonight...
before you acknowledge you are in this song?

it is a sad feeling
selfish
wanting to own so much
selfish
greed is all they're sharing
is anyone caring
no one here
are you there?

it is a sad feeling
dying
hiding the truth so much
lying
pretenses we are sharing
is anyone caring
no one here
are you there?

how many religions must tell you the same thing...
before you will acknowledge we're all the same?
how many times will you send your children to die for your way...
before you acknowledge hypocrisy is it's name?

love your neighbor
do not steal
love is the answer
that is real

love your neighbor
do not kill
it is your actions
it's your will

you will decide the fate of your children
and your world - humanity
please choose love over fear
please choose honesty

please choose love
love you
love me

please choose love
love you
love me

please choose love
i love you
you love me

please choose love
i love you
you love me

it's a happy feeling
i love you
you love me

sing it with me now
i love you
you love me

feel it with me now
i love you
you love me

mean it with me now
i love you
you love me

we can save the children
i love you
you love me

we can save each other
i love you
you love me

power to the people
i love you
you love me

make a happy feeling
i love you
you love me

na na na na na na
i love you
you love me

make it never ending
i love you
you love me

na na na na na na
