LOVE INDEED...
Not spending your nights aloneYou want to redo everything
Their words activate your soulYour days are no longer cold
Time seems to go so fastFeel complete when they get back
Taste their kisses in the windYou think of futuristic things
Awakening with them on your braincan't go a day without talking to them
Feels like something is missing the whole dayUntil the moment they show up again
You believe in them, no matter what others sayNo one can't break you apart
You know they are your soul mate from the startThey will forever, remain in your heart
IS OVER WHEN...
There is nothing left to be saidWords that you said can't be replaced
You wish the day was overThey give you their cold shoulder
You wish that you was elsewhereWhen you look at them, there is no one there
Nothing else they say make you smileYour mind is filled with so much doubt
Arguing becomes the new way to talkYou want to take shorter walks
You don't miss them throughout the dayYour heart is filled with cry-full pain
Everything becomes more than what it isPuzzled with questions deep within
When your body no longer wants their affectionand your heart is no longer at attention
SORRY...
I thought you had my backuntil the very end
as I would done for youyou was my own best friend
Your sorry, for no thinkingbefore your actions
you hope that I forgive youbut got a different reaction
Trust is so hard to obtainbut, harder to maintain
It all went down so fast for uslike a house burning down in flames
Please don't go, you asked mebut, I never felt this hurt
I was not good enough for you thenSorry, will just not work
THE GAME...
Is in this gameYou were so mixed
Believe it you was thereShe took your soul everywhere
She fooled you into believingYou needed her to survive
But, she destroyed your man hoodWith everything you tried
At the point, that you met heryou were married to the streets
instead of your lonely wifeWho what’s there for you in need
In the game, you got lostand she still remains the samethat's the last we heard of youmessing around with cocaine
TORN...
From the moment we met, you took my heart and ran with it
I should of listened to my friends when they said you was no good
but, I thought real deep with-inThat you was just miss-understood
I should of seen it coming apart, because of all the lies
You played games with my heart and had the perfect alibi
I can’t believe what you saidand that you just made me sad
You left me so puzzled and all I wanted was your love
I wanted to stay in your arms but, what can I do now
Sit around and wait againFor you to come back somehow
I know we lost all that we had, how could I ever be mad
I finally get to say goodbye, poof !!! be goneNo, I don't feel angry any morebut, my heart feels like is torn
C.H.A.R.I.T.Y
Coins, dollars and water bottlesI see y'all give them away
I'm hungry and thirstyMay I please have some today?
I apologize, did not see your thereI want to go home but, where?
The train and buses I do not ownbut, where else can I call home
I need some money, is not for drugsCan you see that I am just lost?
I need to feed my childrenbut, I can’t afford the cost
Tomorrow is another dayI'll stop begging y'all for nowThank you for all you givingand see you again somehow
DON'T SAY GOODBYE
Where there is love, there is a tomorrowIt is your love that I will fallowPlease be mines without a fightPromise you'll make it alright
I will love you alwaysI will never leave your sight
Please say that you will be minesand love me until the end of time
No one will ever replaceThe good and the love we share
It will never fade awaybecause, it will always be there
It is you that I adorePlease don't you walk out that door?Don't say good-bye, don't you leave
I need you here for eternity
WITH YOU
The sun never been this brightthe skies never seem so clear
the winters never been this warmuntil the day you appeared
My days never felt so shortmy heart never been this jumpy
I ache at the thought of your kissesyour lips is what I been missing
Thank you, for all that you give mefor your words of courage and wisdom
for being so thoughtful to meand giving me your love endlessly
Without you, I feel so emptymy days never the same
I pray, you will always be hereand our love forever remains
I'M YOURS
I give you my allheart, body and soul
tell you my best kept secretsand anything that's missing
I give you myselfcomplete and truthfullyI'll give you anything
and everything you need
I pray for us each dayI say each prayer with grace
I finally found someonewho puts a smile on my face
I am yours, today, tomorrow and alwaysyou cannot be replacedyour all I'm thinking ofeach day that I awake
BODY OF LOVE
My FaceLights up lights up when I see yours, smiling back
at meMy Eyes
Will not blink for a second, because I don't want to miss anything
My NoseLoves to have you close to me so, that I can smell
your cologneMy Legs
Tremble at the thought of you and the sound of your sexy voice
My HandsHave to hold your hands each day so, that I can
feel safe againMy Lips
Can't wait to kiss yours again because they are as sweet as candy
My EarsLike to hear you say my name because, it sounds
special coming from youMy Heart
Feels so empty when we are apart because, you carry pieces of my heart
DEEP
I gave up on loveI said I'll never love again
Love was long gone from my systembut, you showed me what I was missing
I felt it deep in my heartMaybe, everything else was apartNow, I'm swimming like a doveCan you blame me I'm in love
Love never entered this wayMy heart never felt this greatI thank God for you each day
and, that I found in you my soul mate
Deep into this ocean of loveI never thought I would dive so hard
Now, there is nothing we can dobut, wish that we never part
REST IN PEACE
All this time I tried to change youI should of loved you for you
You always loved me the sameDespite of what we've been through
They say you never knowWhat you got until is gone
You were a star to many of usWho now feel so alone
You made a difference in our livesOur hearts will never forget you
You are one of a kindNo one could ever replace you
Our hearts are now brokenNo one could mend it together
I know, today I have to say goodbye to youbut, it will not be forever
CAPTURED
You have something of minesThat I guarded all this time
Your words broke down my wallsI feel just like a new born
How can I ever go backMy heart loved you from the start
Loving you made me feel so completeWith out you I can not breath
You make me feel I can flyLike the world belongs to us
I feel like a child at playFor the first time in a park
Tell me you will never leave meThat our love will always stayToday, tomorrow and always
We will forever remain
SCARED
Some say love hurtswell, I feel the pain
I can't get the feeling out my brainThe one that makes my heart strain
You say that you love me, In conclusionHow come I can't see it ?How come I can't feel it ?
All I seem to know is confusion
I feel lost and aloneNo reason for us to remain
All we have is painful memoriesOf what we had to sustain
I thought we would never endYou and I was were never meant
Now all I do is regretThat day that we ever met
WHAT IF...
We did not ever meet
Held on to each other deep
Apart we were meant to be
Togetherness never comes
It was all a physical attraction
Forever is not what we want
We do not see eye to eye
Hurting each other more every time
Always make each other cry
True love we never find
It was not all that we expected
Forever we get lost in the world
We had no one to blame for our actions
How can we ever forgive each other
All that we had fades away
Today we change our ways
If we let our love go to waste
Friends we will remain
LOST -N- FOUND
We stared at each other for a brief moment
The world just stopped moving
Maybe it was me
but, when you looked at me, I just knew it
I found myself a real soul mate
I miss you more each day
Can not wait to have you by my side
I fallen so deep, I cannot lie
You've showed me a new way
You make me feel so complete
Maybe, it was just for that night
but, everything felt so right
My love will always be yours
Where ever you are, I'll follow
Because in you I found myself
and hope for tomorrow
WHY SHOULD I CARE...
Can you give me a reason
why tears have not stop falling
why my mind is still in shock
and my heart you were controlling
You want to continue or restart
like this love of ours is a game
why should I care what you want
If all you do is break my heart
Giving all my love to you
respecting your wishes and trusting you
I gave you my heart to hold forever
You take it for granted? Never
I'm glad we ended this fight
everything will be alright
I'm done with living a lie
I no longer want to try
I SHOULD OF KNOWN
If I listened to my heartIt was visible like a star
you will never be true to meshould of known that from the start
Deep feelings of regrets and beyondI should of went with my thoughts
said it will not last foreverI guess I was not that clever
Now I'm sitting here. Alone and confusedlost for words and feeling used
but, I have to think of tomorrowto a place where there is no sorrow
I never should of took it thereeven though my heart for you still caresbut, now I have to make it back home
without you, I should of known

Now we completed each otherWith every piece of our heart
We took a bow to love one anotheruntil death, do us apart

IS IT OVER ?
Can we talk?the world has became so cold
no need to stick around and feel strangeour love is now filled with pain
Do we really need to forget?Our body language says we not ableSeeing each other feeling miserable

Is it over, will it last ?Will we just regret our past
our love is to strong to be outgrownLets just go back to the place we used to call home
ALL, I HAD
I gave you my ALLbut you took everything I HAD
this love we shared turned into PAINI just no longer feel the SAME
I'm giving up on us once and for ALLI miss my past and all I HAD
the chain is now broke I'm no longer in PAINand you are free to roam, is never the SAME
Today I freed my heart, I done with it ALLI said goodbye to a love I HAD
wish I never felt the PAINI'm done with fighting to keep feeling the SAME
Think of me, I will forget it ALLwhen you miss the joy in your life we HAD
when you feel alone and in PAINI will never go back to the SAME
I NEVER KNEW
When love is gone it takes your soulnothing you do makes you feel wholeIt takes your heart and flips it away
You never trust the same again
I opened my eyes, to find your not thereNo one looking at me, no breathing on my neck
only the molds of your body where you once laidthe bed is so cold, I felt like if I was dead
I haven't been the same since you leftI thought we were inseparable
that nothing will ever get between usI never saw it coming, Now stop and think
I am here to declare my loveI never knew I would feel this way about you
I cant help the way I feel so coldplease bay will you just come back home
BABY BLUES...
I can not wait to see your smileYour soft hands holding my finger tight
waking up endlessly through out the nightjust to make sure that you alright
I want to kiss your little cheekssitting there so rosy and pink
you as cute as a button with beautiful skinkeeping you safe from hurtful things
I want to give you daddy's last nameand my last will be the same
I will love you foreverno one could ever replace you
I am crying out to the worldsend me an angel from above
until that day comes, I will just be blueand sit right here and wait for you

to tell you how I feelthe love I have for you is so real
Do you love me for mebecause, I love you for youyour all that I ever wantedlike a real dream come true
You are my everythingI will never cause you pain
take me in your armbefore I go insane
Give me all of youIll give you mine all in return
For you I will conquer the worldbecause, you are my all
MY DEFINITION OF LOVE
Saying the words through your eyesyour heart speaks from itself
being apart makes you want to crybecause you need them by your side
knowing that one day is not enoughfeeling they are completely yours
you cant wait to sign on the dotted linewhere your name becomes one of a kind
Never having to say your sorryNot feeling emotionally usedJoy and laughter comes easy
Never feeling confused
Feeling like you won the lottobeing together for today and tomorrow
everyday feels like a glove
knowing they were sent from above
HE MAKES ME...
He makes meSmile, cry and dream all in oneLaugh, joyful and happy insideThis one really stole my heart
He makes meFeel like the world is always ours
Feel like I'm under misty rain showersFeel secure about tomorrow
He makes meStop thinking negative thoughtsUnderstand the woman he lovesFeels as pretty as an angel above
He makes meWant more of his love each day
Look at the stars in a different wayLove myself and love him the same
MISSING YOU
Sitting here reminiscingwhat could I have done different
we can just turn back the hands of timeto a place where you was mines
Things have changed between usthere is no denying that
look back at the times we sharedit was ticking like a clock
I want it back, me and youuntil the time stop ticking again
I want everything to remainI will love you until my dying day
I miss you baby, please come back homegive me your heart, body and soul
don't leave me out in the rainwith out you I'll go insane
STOLE
I remember at one timeNo one could get to my heart
It was not that I was shyI just did not want to cry
My heart was blocked from abusedFeeling lost and misused
You made feel you was trueand I never felt confused
This was not supposed to happenWhat have you done to me?Loving you is so easy to do
My days with you are never blue
I wanted this for so longMy heart feels like it's own
I'm stronger then I've ever beenThankful that my heart you stole
BROWN EYES
I look into his brown eyesand I see our future indeed
clearly and so much that I couldn't beforethis is the man that loves me forever more
I look into his brown eyesand it makes me realize wow
many days that went byand I never felt how I feel now
I look into his brown eyesand he looks deep into mines
memories come back of our many happy timeshe has never made me cry
I look into his brown eyesall that I can do is smile
he makes me feel brand newlike a new born baby child
FEELINGS...
What are they really formost people just
leave them at the door
Why make up then is all overtowards the end
reality bites so hard that you can evenbe their friends
why should anyone caresoon enough they disappear
all the years wastedwith nothing to show but tears
If love is not what you wantdon't keep that person aroundmake sure they keep a smile
and not making them just frown
Feelings that is all we haveyou can place them in your path
never to return backsay goodbye and just leave it in the past
UN-PRETTY
Yes, you have a long noseYes, you have some big lips
what about the beautythat only grows from within
Looking for perfectionfor the world to never see
what about what your aboutcan they see that in a crowd
Everyone seems big on beautyoutside in the public eyes
what about that heart of goldthat we all possess inside
Can people see that you crycan people see your aloneis not for them judge youonly the one from above
TEMPTATION
There you was, standing before melike someone who did not know me
but, I knew I wanted you to be minesIt was all over my face and mind
You looked at me and I looked awaydid not want you to see that it was written all over
my faceI wanted you for just a while
you always make me want to smile
I kissed you once in a dark alleybut, it was all just a dream
then you woke me up when you said my namebut, I never felt the same
As you told me, you had the same dreamI wanted to be your fantasy
giving myself to you as I mentionedbut it was all just a temptation
TAKE ME AWAY
Take me awayFrom all this painfrom all the stressfrom all the cries
I want you nowone day at a time
in a class of our ownwhere are bodies will unfold
Give me all of youstay by my side
make me feel good insidetake me to ecstasy with your eyes
Take me in your new worldkeep me safe from harm
don't ever leave or let me golets go to places nobody knows
A POEM FOR MY CHILD
