Then fight and don’t surrender
But come when duty calls,
With heart and hand and sword and shield
We’ll guard old Derry’s walls.
The Tears in Cupid’s Eyes
The day you chose to leave me
it rained constantly outside
In truth I swore the rain to be
The tears in Cupid's eyes
- Tupac Shakur
The Fire
I have a peace now in my mind, though the fire still rages. A fire that burns his residue still. I'm commited to the aim, and the beast that rampages within. Life requires effort, let's strive. I want what's best for us. I've tasted the worst. The fire is ablaze, leaving nothing to the mercy of fate.

All human things of dearest value
hang on slender strings.

At Times
I see that I'm lucky, to have a job. I know it is my honour, to call her my wife. I understand I'm blessed, they call me Daddy. It's just at times I need to remind myself.
Hand In Hand
We negotiate the destination. Hand in hand on our journey. I see past the bounds of my knowledge as the blind man taps the curb. In this war of words, I'm engaged! Contend with me, let's risk our trust. I may at times make you cry, but I will always love you.
Stand By Me
Times are hard when things have got no meaning
I've found the key upon the floor,
Maybe you an I will not believe in
the things we find behind the door.
- Noel Gallagher
She
She was dressed to impress. Unknowing I was watching she flicked her hair, as if to psych herself up. She entered the building tall. I wish her much luck.
Shadow Me
Shadow me please, my almighty Lord. Let me walk protected, like forever by my side a sword. No more watching over my shoulder. The Mother! I will behold her. Have only peaceful dreams in my sleep. Give up the hate, your love to keep.
Aye Ready
I found a pen in the darkness, where you left me. Words they found me beaming, when the soul cried out for meaning. It was not the violence, but the constant undermining. Through the cocooned gas and dust, a hand swept. I saw the stars. The same hand that broke the boom and saved the apprentice boys? Unlike Kent you won't tear me apart again. I'm a man with my fist raised high. Aye ready! No longer you make me cry.
