"A TREASURE"
A family is heaven sent from our Father above,
That's bonded by the power of love.
Family can leave at any cost, at anytime.
So don't make yourself feel like slime.
A family is here to comfort you.
I know your friends do this too.
But without your family you would be lost.
So hold on to them no matter what would be the cost.
You've been blessed having a family beside you forever.
Your love and care for each other, bonds you together.
So I hope you'll treasure your family, as I do to mine.
'Coz they will be your guide until the end of time.

GONE
Under beds and in the dark.
Lies our love that lost its spark.
Memoirs of you, and me
Revived only in my literature.
Our days have long been gone
Pieces of our story fall one by one.
The seasons have passed, the tears have dried.
The pain inside, I cannot hide.
The pitter-patter of rain,
The sweet, sweet pain.
Memoirs of you, and me
Revived only in my literature.

"TRUE FRIEND"
You're a true friend to me.
Whenever I'm down you're always there for me..
When I felt that the world was crushing down on me.
You showed me that life is indeed worth living..
No more tears from me you'll see
For you told me once; he's not worth for my tear
You want me to live my life beautiful,
So I'll live it with happiness until the end..
We're like little things
I'm the flower and your the bee
We help each other for us to live
We make the world happy;
for we are a masterpiece indeed.
You're the best of all my friends
You're like a sister to me;
Who helps me when I'm in need
You're indeed a true friend to me..

My Friend
You are a beauty, my dear friend
The one I will and always love
Like the wind that's free
That sings a beautiful song for me
You're truthful and helpful, with honest broown eyes
A friend who is special, exciting, accepting and wise
You're sensitive, loyal and understanding
Friendly, kind, caring and true
Always there... that's you
Appreciative, warm and precious like gold
Our friendship woon't tarnish or ever grow old
You'll always be there i know it's true
Because i'll always be there, just for you

A Child is our Future
A child is an offspring from a mother,
A son or daughter of a father,
That was made by nature,
And given life by God.
He or She might be a counselor,
A senator and even a president,
He or she might be them model
To the youth.
A child can be a murderer, a thief,
A rapist and even the most evil
Person on the phase of the earth.
If discipline is not encourage.
The child can change the future,
Make it better or worse,
A child can say someday
"Give me education for the future is me"

Difference
Does it really matter?
Or is it all just some chatter?
When will people start to care,
That they never really learned to be fair?
People turning into vultures
For a tiny difference in cultures.
Misunderstanding turns to fight
Trying to do what they think is right.
Different as we are,
It doesn�t mean we should have war.
Different traditions, cultures, beliefs
In this mess, can we still breathe sighs of relief?
When will it ever cease,
For us to have peace?
To be living in a world like this
Conflicts are what you can�t miss.
To be different is our duty,
In life that is the beauty.
Loving the difference is what we should learn,
For equality is what we yearn.
