Just a sad little song I wrote, because I'm still glad to be afloat.

For years this mans been knocked down,
its been so hard to pick myself up off the ground.
Most of my years have been hard on me,
its really been a tough fight to keep my soul free.
Seem like everytime I got a break,
in came lifes earthquake.


Knock, knock, knock, knocked down,
so now I'm keeping myself off the ground.


Now my eyes are open wide,
even a blind man could see the path of my ride.
It don't take much vision to see,
what is the best road for me.
Bad times may come and go,
but this old heart will forever grow.
Growing on into the light,
fighting for what I feel is right.
No matter how difficult the task,
I will not hide behind the mask.


Knock, knock, knock, knocked down,
there'll be no more falling to the ground.


As the sun rises on the horizon,
so will my heart and soul be rising.
Up to the sky they will fly,
keeping me on my natural high.
Got no more time to be down,
got to keep strong positivity around.


Keep myself up off the ground,
no more time anymore,
to be scraping myself off the floor.
So on through this world I travel,
fighting satan on his level.


Knocked, knocked, knocked down,
up, up, up and around.


Around and not down,


down, down, down.

Whenever I read your poems, I actually cannot imagine that you have once been like that: down on the floor, experiencing bad time, struggling with life. You always sound so strong and positive.
Great one.

The Tree

Standing tall and proud
Beneath a fluffy cloud
Nothing can get me down
I'm strong and so sound
Along comes the fall wind
Blowing 'till the bitter end
Bending my wooden frame
Thinking its some kind of game
Just when I can't take anymore
I straighten tall just like before
The wind dies down and blows away
I have WON come what may
The storms of life come and go
We can beat them if we know
That we are stronger than the wind
For it will surely come again

I couldn't resist writing this after reading your wonderful poem. It reminded me so much of a tree standing tall, then at the winds mercy it bends. It fights to stand back upright and does...that is you, my friend..always standing tall and fighting the wind and satan and all to do so. I admire you.
