For Sarah

For Sarah
Ever watched someone spread their wings and fly?
Or have someone take one of your things?
Thought you saw the truth in some one's eyes.
Then you find out later it was all a lie?
Every had someone change from friend to foe?
As the world around you is stuck on "go".
You want to keep on dreaming a wonderful dream.
To realize later it's not what it seems.
You wanted to run, but found you can't hide.
In a room where there's no one there by your side.
I've been where you've been.
I've seen what you've seen.
So my word of advice- for your life please take care.
What you have now might not always be there.

Three Little Words

Three Little Words
Three little words,
That can change a
Life.
Three little words,
That turns a frown
To a smile.
Three little words,
That can change
Your cries to laughter.
Three little words,
That can change
Enemies to friends.
Three little words,
That can change anger
To love.
Three Little words,
So hard to say.
"I forgive you."
