This Note

This Note

By John M Lennon

With each tear my pillow soaks up

It's one more word from you that chokes me up

So as I read this note

I remember holding you close

And now the words I should have spoke 

Are the ones that I have now wrote

Still wishing it was you I got to hold close

Because to me you meant the most 

But now it's only this pillow and this note

Final Cost

Final Cost

By John M. Lennon

With every drip and drop

Memories of what I've lost

Now with my pulse slowing...

From the loss

I can see what your love finally cost

For Forgiveness

For Forgiveness 

By John M Lennon

Gun held tight

As I whisper goodnight

Pulling from my past

Now for,

Forgiveness is what I ask

But tonight I held back

Because I saw the love in your eyes as you past

And I could never let our time pass

This fast

Facing Tomorrow

Facing Tomorrow

By John M Lennon

With each tear that rolls down my face

It's still you that can not be replaced 

So it's here I sit and wait

Knowing it is tomorrow I have to face

But to start the day without your embrace

It's really fear that I have to face

Lessons

Lessons 

By John M Lennon

In a timeless, Time 

Each word echoed in the dark 

Demons cast in the shadows of my past 

It's for every moment I've fought to outlast 

But you questioned my strength as a man

Even as it was day and night I would stand 

Now all you want to be is back  

But it's lessons from my past 

That say I can never truly take you back 

Holding On To You

Holding On To You 

By John M Lennon

Words of anger turn to pain 

A double edge sword you can't take away

Seeing all the cuts I've moved past 

But this ones to deep to outlast 

Now as my pain soaks into the earth 

Words are scribbled with hurt 

Frightened by the light 

With my last sights set on you 

Saying I love you 

It's goodnight as I wish I was holding on to you 

My Best

My Best

By John M Lennon

Rain soaked night 

My tears are hidden as I fight 

A demon cast inside 

Words of pain, all that I can cry 

But as they fall on the ears of the deaf 

I live through my one and only regret 

That is not giving you my all 

At my best 

Dark night

Dark night

By John M Lennon

Shadows cast through the window as I stare 

Dark motionless night 

My minds rattled with thoughts of fright 

Alone I've been left to fight

No light at the end 

This is how deep I've climbed 

Alone without a friend 

But it's every word I've held on too 

That now has come true

It's as I realize they're true 

Once again I'm standing right next to you 

My Life

My Life 

By John M Lennon

A moonless night

Realizing it to be true 

It is me alone 

When it use to be next to you 

A frightful feeling I use to fight 

But now I embrace it,

As I see it is my life 

Land Of The Free

Land Of The Free

By John m Lennon

More then heroes to me
It's because you of
Our flag flies, standing for freedom
And it is with pride each tear I cry
Wanting to thank you each day
But nothing means as much
As what you have given too me, for this day
So I salute you as you stand
Thankful for each soldier, woman or man
Giving more then your fair share to this fight
And it is here that we unite
Thanking you for the chance to truly be free
All that you have given to me
And this great country and land of the free
