My Heart Will Never Die

My Heart Will Never Die

By Tione Thrift

Dig deep into my soul and what shall you find?

A deep void or pure sunshine

Some feelings are too complex to express

Why must one be filled with so much distress?

Heartbreak, pain, misery, what else is there?

How much pain can one truly bear?

I cannot lie, never say good bye

I feel as if I can fly

A tear in my eye, I will not cry

My heart will never die

There is Someone Out There

There is Someone Out There

By Tione Thrift

No more depression, no more despair

It’s my hope, it’s my prayer

Our sign is floating in the air

I know you’re out there

My heart will always be aware

Holding hands throughout the world we share

One day I will stand up and proudly declare

That you are my lady fair

What, when, where?

Together forever in eternity’s lair

Fate

Fate

By Tione Thrift

Whether you’re near or far

I don't know who you are

I don’t know when I’ll meet you

Maybe I already have under the sky so blue

One day I’ll look into your lovely eyes

And know that you’re more precious than the stars in all the skies

One day I’ll find you, the woman so great

Not by luck, but by fate

If it’s meant to be then it will be

Just know that you’ll be very important to me

One with Nature

One with Nature

By Tione Thrift

Outside looking at the sun in the sky

Listening to the sweet song that the birds sing as they fly

The mighty tree stands tall and strong

A gentle breeze from the wind goes on and on

The grass so green, filled with life

No thoughts of pain, no thoughts of strife

The clear air that my breath takes in

Flies away with the wind

Filled with sadness, not wanting to part

One with nature, one with my heart

What if it was you?

What if it was you?

By Tione Thrift

What if it was me who had no choice?

What if it was me who had no voice?

What if it was me being forced against my will

What if it was me? This is real

What if it was you who was being treated less than your worth?

What if it was you who was being held in bondage since birth?

Something that seems so far away

It’s closer than we think, it starts today

Human trafficking is real

It’s time to do something, so here’s the deal

It’s time to come together and be aware

It’s time to show that when others need us, we will be there

Come on everyone, we know what to do

What if it was me?  What if it was you?

My Wish

My Wish

Tione Thrift

How can this be?

It’s not too hard to see

The beauty of this wonderful sight

So lovely are the stars at night

The lunar light shines over the dark trail

This sight can never fail

What a lovely sight you are

You’re my wish, my shooting star

Forever Yours

Forever Yours

By Tione Thrift

Hear my cry, hear my plea

Please don’t go, stay here with me

No one understands me like you do

No one is as loving or as true as you

You have my heart, you’re my love

You’re my gentle dove

Will I find you or will you find me

To be together forever, we have eternity

I don’t know who you are

But I know we share the same star

When we meet, my heart shall open its doors

Telling you that I’m here, forever yours

Stay Aware

Stay Aware
By Tione Thrift

They don’t run, they don’t hide
Their chains are invisible on this perilous ride
In reality their dreams are like a mirage across the sand
They are deceived by the lies of the barren land
At first there are no thoughts of escape
But they soon fall victim to their fate
Tricked by the prospect of fortune and fame
They lose their identity, they lose their name
So close to freedom, but yet so far away
Wishing for freedom, wishing for that glorious day
A lack of awareness keeps this evil alive
They need us to be aware in order to survive

Wonderful World

Wonderful World

By Tione Thrift

The sun, shining so lovely in the sky

Shining so bright as each day goes by

Dancing all around, happiness in the air

Smiles can be seen everywhere

The trees and flowers are dancing in the wind

Everything in harmony, like a peaceful friend

The mountains stand tall and true

So lovely is the ocean blue

A Wonderful Treasure



Don’t ignore, don’t neglect

They should be treated with respect

Never use them, always stay true

Never abuse them, they are people too

Always and forever from the date of their birth

They are beautiful Angels on this Earth

So lovely that you don’t know what to say

They should be treated like queens every day

Always remember even when they are old

They are all precious, worth more than gold

One Day Soon

One Day Soon

By Tione Thrift

One day I’ll meet you, one day soon

I keep on looking at our star shining next to the moon

Lighting up our path along the way

The golden sun brightens up the world each day

The wind may blow, but stay true

Our ship will sail its course on the ocean blue

Never be afraid of the rain

The refreshing mist will heal all the sorrow and pain

The sun beams down on a lovely afternoon

One day I’ll find you, one day soon

Just have to stay positive and one day I'll meet a young woman that likes me for who I am.  Just have to keep on being myself. 

A New Day

A New Day

By Tione Thrift

Pen and paper, it has been a while

So wonderful, like a lovely smile

Forget the dreary storm at night

Dawn is near, no time to fight

There’s no time left to be sad

It’s time to forget how to be mad

Don’t let depression have a major role

Staying happy and positive is our goal

Remember things may not always go your way

Tomorrow may be gone, but today is a new day

Keep your head up and look towards the sky

The sun rises and says “hi”

Forever and Always

Forever and Always

By Tione Thrift

You look so lovely on this wonderful day

So lovely, you take my breath away

It’s not just today that you look so lovely

Every day you look beautiful to me

I don’t know who you are

But I always see you when I see our star

Lovely like the ocean blue

One day I’ll meet you

Maybe we’ve already met and it’s not time

One day I’ll ask you to be my Valentine

Not just for one day,

But forever and always

It's Not Over

It’s Not Over

by Tione Thrift

I want to see your eyes shine

I want to see them sparkle when you look into mine

When I see your face I don’t want to see a frown

I want to see you sparkle like a golden crown

Smile, don’t be sad

Be happy, don’t be mad

Don’t worry about yesterday it’s the past

You’ll never finish last

I just want to see a smile on your face

I want to help end this case

Never give up, it’s not over

Don’t worry, my hand will always be on your shoulder

Don’t worry, tomorrow is near

It’s not over, I’m here

A True Friend

A True Friend

By Tione Thrift

Don’t listen to what others say

Just stand tall and take in the new day

It doesn’t matter what they say about you

Just remember to always stay true

It’s just the beginning, it’s not the end

You will always have a true friend

Listen to them, they will always be there

They will always help because they truly care

It doesn’t matter if you are not a part of the crowd

With a true friend, you’ll always be proud

Thank You, To all Who Care

Thank You, To all Who Care

By Tione Thrift

                                                   Things will work out in the end

One day I’ll find my first girlfriend

No more being apart

One day I will find a woman who will capture my heart

Being single for twenty years is not a curse; it’s a blessing knocking on my door

It will make me appreciate her even more

Just seeing her smile will truly be paradise

But until I find her I’ll be thankful for the people in my life

I’m thankful for my mom, my sisters, and my brother

I’m thankful for my grandmother

My college family, cousins, aunts, uncles, and friends, I’m thankful for you

I’m thankful for everyone I know under the sky so blue

Thank you for always being there

Thank you to all who care

The Right One for Me

The Right One For Me

By Tione Thrift

Staring at the sky so blue

The Sun shines strong and true

There’s a breeze in the air

The birds sing a song so fair

Nothing like the beauty of the land and sea

It feels so familiar to me

Hopefully one day, I’ll meet someone like you

Someone so lovely and true

Like the birds that sing, her voice will be a joy to hear

One day I wish to call her my dear

Though I don’t know who my first girlfriend will be

I hope she will be the right one for me

There is Someone Out There for Me

There are times that if you've been single your whole life so far that it can get discouraging at times.  Sometimes you think that the person out there for you doesn't even exist.  You try to go out on dates and they all stand you up.  No one seems to want to give you a chance.  Still you keep your head up and just have to contiue to live your life.  I'm going to stay positive even if I'm single for another 20 years.  But don't worry, there is someone out there.  There is someone out there for you.  There's someone out there for me. 

There is Someone Out There for Me

By Tione Thrift

I don’t know her name

The situation that we face is the same

I can’t refuse, I can’t neglect

It’s my heart that I must protect

How can I meet her if she doesn’t exist?

Still, it’s hard to resist

Maybe I know her already, maybe I do not

Maybe I’ve talked to her and she just forgot

I’m just going to stay positive and happy

Because I know that there is someone out there for me

There’s Nothing You Can’t Do

There’s Nothing You Can’t Do

By Tione Thrift

You don’t need a lucky horseshoe or a four leaf clover

Never give up.  It’s far from over

Take on any challenge, any test

Always continue to do your best

You never know what you can do unless you try

Stay true like the stars in the sky

Remember to always stay true

If you try, there’s nothing you can’t do

Stay True to Yourself

Stay True to Yourself

By Tione Thrift

Get up and smile, it’s a new day

Forget about the troubles of yesterday

Forget about good luck and bad luck

Just stay positive and keep your head up

Always remember that you have a true friend

Keep on trying your best until the end

Stay strong and true to yourself

Continue to be you and no one else
