My Words

                                     What If !

       What if there was no God?

              Would man be so Vain!

              Would we still live in pain!

             Would hurting words still stain!

      What if there was no God?

             Would we know the universe!

             Would my skin still be my curse!

             Would my heart fill with pain and burst!

             Would life be any worse!

      What if there was no God?

             Would friendships stay the same!

             Would we still feel shame!

             Would the world be easier to tame!

             Would we still seek someone to blame!

       What if there was no God!

              Would life be so true!

              Would the sky still be blue!

             Would bad luck stick to me like glue!

             Would i still be in love with you!

       What if there was no God?

              Would my faith keep me strong!

              Would i still feel like i belong!

             What would keep me from doing wrong!

             Would my heart still sing its song!

                                A Name

I have one question,what is in a name?

and a person by any other , are they not the same

Is it right to hold someone back for something they are not to blame

And if a person were to change it , should you subject them to shame

In the past i have been told to go back from whence i came

and the reasons i have been given are nothing short of lame

I have put on my thinking cap and time has stressed my brain

To be stressed with such hypocrisy is causing me to strain

For the work i have put in , i was truly highly trained

and by disrespecting my choice surely i feel the pain

So forgive me if i ignore you, your idle threats have been slain

Your ignorance is no excuse and by complaining i have nothing to gain
