&quot;God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, Courage to change the things i can, and Wisdom to know the difference. &quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Crying doesn&#039;t indicate that you&#039;re weak; Since birth it has been a sign that you are alive.&quot;

she is a star in the sky
why is she so far
when i look up
she a twinkle
in my eye
like a diamond heart
I wish she were here
in my arms
you make me smile
as long as the nile
she keep me on file
with her smile
she a gleam in my eye
on the horizon of
the world
I give her my heart
I give her the world
she all mine cause
your a gleam in
my eye
