We are brought into this world all alone We have been taught to be strong and feerless "Tremble not in the enemies eyes," my father said I stand my ground, and I face my fears I still hurts though, and I can't hold it in I cry I seek the answers to becoming a man
There comes a time when as a man must cry It is the time when all the walls must crumble,
and I must face my long hidden feelings It is a time when my ego loses, and my heart wins
growing strong and heavy I am closer to becoming a man.
. I have reached that time in my life My false facade has vanished and I am naked to the eye My heart has swollen; It is now ripe and ready to burst I have found that you do grow stronger with each tear lost Thruugh blmy eyes I see the answer I see the way to becoming a man
I fill my cup, not missing a drop I brandish my prize for aU to see I can now push on; not with my mind, but with my soul I have found my way toward the truth My shoulders are still heavy with toll, yet I can now stand taller with the knowledge of power...... I have truly become a man, "A STRONG BLACK MAN"

acRIWW~ Perhaps you sang a lovely song, or sat quietly in a chair; Perhaps you sent beautiful flowers if so, we saw them there. Perhaps you sent or spoke kind words as any friend could say; Perhaps you were not there at all just thought of us that day. Perhaps you prepared some tasty food, or maybe furnished a .a.r; Perhaps you rendered a service unseen, near at hand or from afar. Whatever you did to console the heart, we thank you so much,
Whatever the part.

Sometimes we see whence futures come............................ The dark glow, yet basking light that floats on our horizon. In our travels we often come across that time where tomorrow i~ no stranger, and yesterday is still an old friend. De je vous the French call it, "For days live again". To tred these steps once more, all to familiar yet unknown. That familiar glimpse, from where unsure.
Were they lovers, kin, enemies or strangers in the past life. Your memories swain in and out. That knowing smell, that prick of times come back, some to haunt us with both pain and pleasure. You flinch as the tingling feeling of the cloth takes you away to a place faintly remembered, but only dreamed of.
Is it I'm crazy, Does time repeat itself, Do we ever really learn from our mistakes, or do_we never truly die till we get th.em right, Sometimes we see whence futures come...........................
