Tormented Soul 
Of pain and suffering I am no stranger,
I lead not a life, wrought with danger.
I am who I am, a meer mortal man,
My mind's a mess, I'm doing all I can.

Sickness to my left, insanity to my right,
I lie sobbing intensly, into the night.
Can you truly understand, do you even really care,
How lost I feel, no more can I bare.

I think of death, and the peace of mind it will bring,
No longer in my heart, is there a song to sing.
My life nears the end, the instrament my hand,
One fight to many, no longer can I stand.

Illness is claiming my wife, though it takes me first,
My regret is for the children, whom will fare the worst.
With thier father gone, a mother losing ground,
The state will separate and spred them around.

We asked for help, NAE! we cried out loud,
There was no help for us, just a black cloud.
One desparate family, begging to stay together,
No help came, gone is our forever.
Dare to Dream

Dare to dream, and hold on tight,
Never let go, carried through the night.
Believe it in your heart, step up take a chance,
Make it happen, do the victory dance.

For believe in your self, be true to your heart,
You can't succeed if you don't at least start.
Believe in your self, and others will follow,
Beware offers, insincere and hollow.

Nurture your dream, help it to grow,
Share it with others, so that they will know.
That it's ok to dare to dream, and hold onto it tight,
To never let go, let it carry you through the night.
