How long...

I have to wonder how long this will last
How long before all the whispers pass
I have to put others in consideration
How long before I am selfish once again
I have to care what they think
I have to hear what they say
How long before I turn away
How long before I can't make it to the next day
I cry myself to sleep
And when awake never let out a peep
How long before I explode
And no longer hold back
Letting my story unfold

How long is all I can wonder
How long is all I can ask
How long will my pain last
How long will thins single tear roll down my face
How long will I hide and be lost without a trace...

A friend...

A friend like you I've search
In the stores,closest and secret places
Behind closed doors, big buliding even staring at the ceilings
Its hard to believe that all along you would just appear
A friend so close
A friend so dear
I will kepp you near
And you'll help me through my rough days
Help me through my ups and downs
And even the depression phase
A friend like you I have been searching for
And thanks to the almighty God I search no more

It seems...

It seems I'm on a stage
My life is like a book
And people read every page
They don't understand the lines
They never read the words
Only listening to summaries that they've heard

My friends are like mountains
My friends are like wings
They stand tall and strong
Like the natural fortress protecting all the lil things
They sings words so sweet
That allow my heart to continue to beat

You are my cane
When I can no longer walk up right
You are my light
When I can no longer see at night
You are my friend
When I feel that I am alone
You are my sister
When it seems I only get dialtone
You are my eyes
When I can no longer see
You my ears
When the truth needs to be heard
And I rather it not be
You are my mouth
And help me to speak up
Allow my words to be clear

You are my fortress, my sister, my left hand
You are a blessing my dear
