Deal Me Each and every dayDeal Me by ~asian701129
Life deals you a new hand, a new chance to play
Do you take the crookeds with the straights?
Or do you step aside as to not tempt fate

Othertimes you might just be forced to play and lose
When that happens and you really want out

do add up with the whole
but when it comes down to it
anyone can make another acquaintance
'anyone' indeed
even the best acquaintances (just acquaintances)
can't step in to fill the gap that belongs
to a real friend
II.
so why is it so hard
to find a true friend
Someone Who Cares
someone you can trust
[billions of people out there
is how we fit together
truly such a mystery?

Wishes and Dreams I. DreamsWishes and Dreams by ~asian701129
What is a dream?
just something that
is just within your reach
although to reach it may take your life
Here in America
people dream big
be it
a chicken for every pot (people forget about the car in the garage)
or 40 acres and a mule
a Hawaii home
People have navigated oceans
Crossed deserts
Slaved wilderness
and fought wars
for this land of dreams
The American Dream
A dream for one's family and future
or
a dream for everyone (of every color, gender or age)
(he who boldly said 'I have a dream' -
he made his dream come true)
So if that is a dream
that which you can make real
