"Said we go to war just to bring us together, I believe in Love, I believe in forever..."

"Eyes see everything..." -Devon Torble,

"Caught up in love"- Joseph M. Lyons,

"I speak my words, through a broken truth,
...I bite my lip, and taste its guilt,
I see heaven on the horizon, but I turn my back,
Paradise must wait,
For when it dies,
The truth shall be revealed…" - Joseph Michael Lyons,

"Seen through an angel’s eyes,
I’ve found love where it truly lies,
And when that angel cries,
All my pain slowly dies…" - Cassandra Burnes and Joseph Lyons

Everyone no matter the amount is always trying to gain more power,

And when they attain it they develop greed,

Because they fear to lose that power,

But in all reality sooner or later they will lose that power,

That they took for granted and have none,

And wish that they at least had a little,

When all along it was there greed that lost it all
