Notes to the Family..


~Dear Papa,
The water is so red,
and the sky has a hole.
The most expensive items are free,
and our birth-right isn't anymore.

~Dear Mama,
The older I get,
the less tolerant I become.
Life is as beautiful as you described.
Love still hurts and friendships still save.

~Dear Sister,
Everything has a price, unfortunately.
What may seem, need not necessarily be.
Our life is our own, the world is ours to change.
For better or worse, excuses are extinct.

~Dear Gypsies,
Distance and Time have never mattered.
The hills have come and the valleys have gone,
What binds us together also releases us.
Let's never forget what has kept us alive thus.

~Dear Rainbow,
We've served our sentence from the trial.
Things will never be the same.
But, it can get better.
Every tear, laugh, wrinkle adds a line to our story.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm coming home. I'm coming home.
Tell the World I'm coming home
Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday.
I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home. I'm coming home.
Tell the World that I'm coming home.
