Before I cry
I down on my knees again
I’m tired from running
You think I’m not human
You think I’m not trying to live this life
I give all I have
I’m running on empty, you think I’m still flying
You think I’m still rising
But I’m still sinking down in this flood
I’m drowning
You’re wondering
I’m crying
You think I’m still flying
When will I crash and burn
When will I be the first
To conquer this earth
To be free from my curse
Can you give me one more try
To hold my head up high
Just before you see me cry
Before you see me cry….

Jon's Prose and Poetics
Welcome to my Page of Written Prose and Poetics. A lot of them probably don't rhyme or anything but I just kinda wrote them thinking of a song. Hopefully, these will somehow inspire you to keep hoping, and keep believing. I might add some other stuff not written by myself but perhaps have had great meaning and inspiration to me in times of joy and sorrow. All writings are copyrighted by Jon Ho 2001-2007
