* dedicated to all those people who are scoffed at for dreaming big dreams, for dreaming vastly
* dedicated to everyone who has nemeses who pray for the death of everything they stand for
* for anyone and everyone who has lost at love – don't worry we'll find love....I swear we'll win in the end!
(John 11:43-44) Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth!” And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Loose him, and let him go."
---------------------------------/Lazarus Forever [John 11:1-44]
as you lay in a tomb
mourners drawn together to pay their last respects
loud wailings, copious sobs, overcast skies
and the resignation of the hope of ever seeing you happy again
cover your epitaph like grave clothes , scattered like frankincense
on your face – your arms delicately folded over your chest
(your hair combed neatly, head kissed tenderly)
forever lost to memory
but perhaps never forgotten
and you still remember the best times, when you envisioned
so much more than this
premature death at the hands of circumstances out of your control
or maybe not
maybe you perished at the regret of your collective wrongs
but you always strove to make things right
and invested your future plans in restitution and resurrection
to a state of pure innocence
a life devoted to erasing your destruction (misanthropy)
and continuing the philanthropy you inaugurated
before your demise
but perchance your vows to never die alone can be heard
-the promise to live honorably in the end-
as echoes in Hades, as crescendos in the next life
a testament to friends in high places
but you swear you will not leave your pursuits of love unfinished
acts of justice unfulfilled
the poor without a benefactor, young without a mentor
and a proper memorial of your acts without virtue
a life without any significance....
Before you passed, sensing the end was near
they told you to give up and let go
they said your dreams were dead
but you won't
but they're not
(they can't be)

Aren't these some times?
It's gotten bad, and it's been
Pressin on my mind
Got me feelin sad
But I know you know
That we could do more
But we just don't
Don't worry world
I feel your pain, and it's a shame
My shoulders are hurt
And stressed from the pain
And I know you know
That you could do more
But you
And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together
With a little bit of help from up above
And a sprinkling of love
We can break these chains
We will end these days
And I know you know
That you could do more
But you
And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together
And I still believe
That there is a lot at stake, there's no time to wait
We can change the world if we try
We're gonna change it forever
You should join us
You, let it be you
Who will join us?
You, let it be you
And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together
And I still believe
That there is a lot at stake
And there's no time to wait
We can change the world if we try
We're gonna change it forever
And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together
And I still believe
