"Love"

Love--
Love one another.
Love--
Give to each other.

Love--
And show that we care.
Love--
Is better when we share.

Love--
Makes a beautiful connection.
Love--
Keeps us from defining perfection.

Love--
Makes us grow.
Love--
Makes us strong when we feel low.

Love--
Will unite us all.
Love--
Picks us up after we fall.

Love--
Is for us to feel.
Love--
Makes everything feel real.

"Write From the Heart"

Write from the heart--

Of the love that's inside.

Write from the heart--

Of the pain that I hide.

Write from the heart--

Because it's where love starts.

Write from the heart--

Because it's my art.

Write from the heart--

Even though it aches.

Write from the heart--

Even though it breaks.

Write from the heart--

Because it's what I feel.

Write from the heart--

Because I know it's real.

Write from the heart--

To pick up the pieces.

Write from the heart--

Of a love that never ceases.

Write from the heart--

As I try to heal.
Write from the heart--
Because it's in God's will.

"That Girl"

I don't want to be the girl--
That always breaks.
I don't want to be the girl--
That dwells on her mistakes.

I don't want to be the girl--
That could never find peace.
Even though in her heart--
Is a love that never cease.

I don't want to be the girl--
That always cries.
I don't want to be the girl--
That can't distinguish the truth from the lies.

I don't want to be the girl--
Who gave up and quit.
I don't want to be the girl--
Who can't take a hit.

I want to be the girl--
Who gave a good fight.
I want be the girl--
That can sleep through the night.

I want to be the girl--
Who believes that things will be fine.
I want to be the girl--
With a heart that's bigger than mine's.

I want to be the girl--
That finish what she's started.
I don't want to be the girl--
That ends up brokenhearted.
