poem :my love..by jja

how does it feel to be loved by a man
who can offer you nothing in the world
but a grain of sand

or to be adored from afar
not by a lord
but by this mortal man
who begs not, to anyone, but you
to be adored
even if just for a moment

and in the lonely hours,
when nature conflicts with mans’
own selfish immortal demands
is it not blissful to know
that here stands the man
that will be next to you
when the new day has
begun
and darkness has become
a new start with a fresh
dawn!

BARB WIRE IN MY HEAD
CONFUSION I'VE BEEN LEAD
TO BELIEVE IN ALL THATS LIFE
TO BELIEVE IN ALL THATS RIGHT
BUT I'M NO LONGER GONNA DO
WHAT EVERBODY TELLS ME TOO
I'M GONNA LIVE MY LIFE BE FREE
BE THE GIRL I NEED TO BE

BARB WIRE BURNING UP MY DARK
LEADING ME TO THE CENTRE OF MY HEART
EVERY DAY, PEOPLE EXPECT TOO MUCH OF ME
DENYING ME THE RIGHT TO LEAD
YET I STILL DO BELIEVE
WE CAN ALL BE FREED
FROM THIS MANMADE STRIFE
WHICH PREVENTS US ALL FROM TAKING FLIGHT
TO A PLACE WHERE WE CAN SOAR
UN-OBTRUSED , THIS GIRL IS NO MANS' WHORE !
