Media Mind Warp

Stick your fingers down your throat - I promise I won't watch
oh, but that's what you do it for - I forgot.


Your ego has taken on a life of it's own
to honestly think I care enough about what size dress you wear?

If your words are shallow and pre-scripted - do you really expect me to listen?
Are you truly that caught up in yourself that you think I would trade in my morality and beliefs for YOU?
Vote for whomever for YOU?
Buy your moronic music with your pointless lyrics for WHO?

I am woman - hear me snore...
You bore me with your words
(actually, I believe they are someone elses, but that's what makes it worse).

Do you remember a distant time when people were real
with real messages and real physiques
real reasons to be... real?

I WON'T fall prey to your "message".
I WON'T be fooled by your "Agenda" (for I read you like a book).
I WON'T buy your CD (even with the catchy hook).

For I am real.
I am who I am.
Who are you?

(Speak your mind - not that of someone else)

I Wrote A Letter...


I wrote a letter to my son today
I've done it many times before.
It's not to give him right away

I wrote of how we love him,
Our wishes and our dreams.
I wrote my "Ten Commandments"
Among many other things.

We always say I love you.
We always kiss goodnight,
But I feel that all these letters
Are something I should write.

I started when I was pregnant
Just to let him know,
That even though he wasn't "here"
That we both love him so.

I write them as he's growing,
About the funny things he does.
The stories that he tells me
The toys and music that he loves.

For when I'm old and ailing.
Or when I'm no longer there.
He'll always have my letters,
To know how much I care.


Do we always say what needs to be said to our children?
Do we leave behind a legacy of love and words that they will adhere to?
We could be gone today, tomorrow, many years from now, but why wait for them to know?

Write a letter. Write many letters as they are growing cover all bases, give them something in addition to beautiful memories to look back on. They could be young and you could be gone Don't take tomorrow for granted. Don't take your love for your children (or their love for you) for granted. Write a letter.

Confused


Loyalty surges through my veins thicker than blood
My love is unconditional, forgiving
Yet I am in darkness.....
I shelter you, I understand you, I see you
Can you see me in return?
I know your mind, your thoughts
I see your darkness and bask in your light
Yet I am in darkness....

I don't fear the darkness
I fear the cold

Our mountains have been treacherous
Our summits have been plentiful
Together we can conquer - but I need your strength
I need your darkness to empower you
Take my darkness away......
