Favorite Quote:
we are all born with a divine fire in us. our effort should be to give wings to this fire.


I have a hope

not much 

to ask for

never a bleeding heart

but I am not heartless

I have respect

but you have to earn it

if you destroy it

Thats who I am

No more Falling for the lies 

You told me with your silver tongue

My faith grew

but yours lowered

I can't say I am proud of your choices

The money is only there 

when you get greedy

and I 

pay the price

All I ever wanted was a family

Now 

7 years down the road

I have a family

yet

those painful memories 

still haunt me

but hey

I am living

and I will be the one surviving

I have forgiveness

and You have hatred

but hey

love

its a human

kindness

cause guess what

I am finally living
