L.B, 's HAPPY TEARS


GURRL

there aren't enough 

words or verbs 

to describe 

 all of 

the good stuff 

inside your frame 

or 

in your veins 

yeah 

even your name 

is

 plain 

but

guess what?

you're definitely 

not 

yeah 

you are 

so

sweet 

and (HOT)

( HONEST OPEN AND THOUGHT-PROVOKING )

yeah 

no joking 

your birth

has so  much 

worth 

that others 

thirst 

for 

more 

kind 

of 

your 

wine \

but 

today

say 

Cheers

to

you

and 

many 

more 

years 

of 

happy tears 


IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT THE BARBECUE

hey 
sorry to say 
it's not 

about

 barbecue

today 

yeah, no way 
or no play 
yeah, it's about 
soldiers 
living 
their lives 
out  loud 
and giving 
their lives 
out loud 
yeah 
on front of 
a citizen crowd
which is 
us 
yeah 
trust 
this day 
is 
a plus 
but 
guess what?
it's not all 
about the barbecue

me 

forty 

days 

and 

forty 

nights 

yeah

just to walk

 around 

town 

by myself 

yeah

. without the need 

of 

someone else 

to help me

WHERE ARE MY DREAMS?

MAN

why

can't 

my 

dreams come true 
like you 

yeah 

why i 

have to feel

so blue

in your newness 

yeah 

why can't i 

too 

have some bliss 

or a kiss 

from the kingdom 

yeah 

something 

that  last

longterm 

yeah 

instead 

of 

this hurtful 

heartburn

that yearns 

to have a turn 

at all 

of 

her desires 

yes Lord

where is 

my fire

that i required 

about

yeah

Father

where is 

your daughter's 

reasons 

to happy shout 

for seasons  


 

  

WHAT IS THE LESSON?

MAN

i'm about to come unraveled 

yeah, because

 i don't get to love 

or 

travel 

like everyone else 

yeah 

it's like 

my breath 
is 

just sitting 

on the shelf 

waiting to death 

and i don't know why 

as i try, i try, i try 

but sadly 

no reply 

or 

road trips 

yeah 

as i try 

not slip

into depression 

but Lord

what is the lesson?

TRAPPED?

Hey, Christ

why does everyone else 

get to lived

their best life 

yeah, while i sit here 

in total sacrifice 

yeah, i didn't even 

get to roll the dice 

for a nice slice 

of 

cake

but still, i wake 

with wheelchair brakes

hoping for a break 

and no human aches 

yeah 

no complaining 

about some palsy 

that caused me 

to be 

trapped 

in some envious

 crap 


HEARTBROKEN & HANDICAPPED

God

my heart 

is

being 

constantly 

torn 

apart  

yeah 

start to finish

i feel 

real 

pain 

and 

have 

a grimmest

inside

that i feel 

like 

i have to hide 

because 

of 

pride 

yeah

no dark side 

just my survival 

yeah*

until

Jesus's second arrival  

 



iN THE MUDDY SEA

Father
you know i hate 
to be
scared 
or
 ill-prepared  
but 
still 
you allow  
me 
your child 
to feel 
real
stuck 
in the wild 
yeah 
with no smile 
just fear 
yeah
Lord
get me out of here 
so i can see
clearly
in the muddy sea
