"Stand tall and be proud of who you are"

                    Lady PJ

Why you judging me?

With that look of disapproval  

And this out and out display
Of dismay illuminating your face

With your eyes looking down at me

Like your way up there on that apple tree

Pretending to be perfect and all so Godly

I’m not the looser that you think

You’re flying high and talking fast

Yet you complain because I’m too slow

Or my thoughts are like the different

Colors of the rainbow

I’m not the rabbit trying to win the race

I’m that turtle trying to take my place

And become something more than

You or I ever thought I could be

Just wait… because my name will

Go down in history

WHAT THEN WILL YOU SAY TO ME?

If I told you that life was a game

Would you play with me?

It would be like twenty shades of gray

We don’t need fifty but I promise you

It will be interesting

Our life would be the chess board

Every move invigorating

I’ll dazzle your mind

You’ll find it fascinating

Come dance with me baby

Hold me close to you

Our bodies touching

The connection is like fire… erupting

Don’t you want to play with me?

A lifetime of happiness

Is what I’m offering

This game of life is an opening

Come... come dance with me

"She Stood A Soldier"

Children weeping; don't you cry!
No bed-time stories told tonight
Dreams are broken; hopes that die
Feeling empty deep inside

Who then will tell her story
While She's laying dead?
Who now will show the world
The precious life she lead?

In her mothers arms she was cradled
Her father held her close and tight
She then was taught to be a soldier
She held a gun; ready to fight

She served a world that didn't know her
Proud of the life she led
But all that's left is to grieve her
And understand that now she's dead

Out in the field she stood a soldier
Ready to serve and fight our cause
She proudly gave her life that day
I hope it never fades away
This gift that can never be replaced
So don't you dare forget her!

-Out In the Field She Stood A Soldier!-


     I wrote this piece because of the wars that our country was in; at the time I was thinking about all the female soldiers that weren't getting the respect that I felt they were due.  Because of what I was feeling this poem has special meaning to me. 

To You My Love by Lady PJ

I wonder do you know this love I feel gives me hope

Your smile I adore because that's how you touched me first

I think now can you see me or the woman that I will be

If I had you in my life to adore and love me completely

I long to be the shoulder for which you will lean on

To be the voice of hope whenever you're down or feel alone

To see your smile because it brightens up your eyes

To share with you the morning sun as it rises in the skies

I long to wake in the morning laying in your arms

To hear your heartbeat knowing that I am at home

To know that our love will stand the test of time

A crazy love story that the whole world will admire
