    For all Of You
    If you could reach inside my shell
    If I could reach behind your shield
    We would find our self on common battle fields
    Neither on one side or the other
    Side by side sister and brother
    Head to head father and daughter

    Don’t cry for me
    For this life I have chosen
    Don’t try to fix me
    I am not broken
    Don’t pray for my soul
    For my soul is not lost

    Want for me
    All that I want for you
    A life of love
    Filled with gifts of laughter
    For all of you my mother, father, sister and brother

    Thanks Angel, sorry for such a delayed reply. I dont use a skilled poetry style. I write what I feel and hope others find something to relate to.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
