We love...We hate
We laugh...I cry
We hug...we push
I throw things when I'm angry... Hecleans it up
...

The seasons change and the time goes by
Father did you hear me calling for you?
Oh I cried a river for you...for many many years
It's almost as if you didnt hear
...

Your apologies confuses me....
What does it truly mean?

When you apologize it frustrates
...

These eyes... have seen a lot of hurt
These eyes... have cried so many times
These eyes... are the windows to my soul
These eyes... have seen so many sad stories
...

As I am laying by your side
I try so hard to hide....
These emotions that are buried deep inside
Trying so hard to be strong for you
...

There is no other way to explain how you make me feel inside
When I am with you it is not easy to hide
....because you make me love you
Maybe these feelings are true because I only want to be with you
...

I remember when I fell for you... There wasn't anything else in the world I wanted to do, except be with you
These feelings were as deep as the earth's core
I gave you the power baby you held the key
I'd go to the end of the planet and back.... for you
...

It's been a lifetime since I seen your face...
Those feelings I had for you I kept in a safe place...
It all began when we first met
I knew right away we were to connect
...

When you love someone; you know you do because him and only him can make you feel a certain way... He makes you feel like everyday is your day.... But then the seasons changes and as the days goes by things aren't the same

You love him so much you could never love another man this way
Then your happiness turns into misery and uncomfort
...

I noticed your smile from a mile away...
The words were at the tip of my tongue... But still I had nothing to say
I also noticed how you kept staring at me...Frequently
So curiousity brought me your way
...

Poetry is my sense of revelation
Poetry is my reflection
Poerty is my therapy; it soothes me
Poetry is the words that are in my brain
...

As far I as I know you cherish me
However, would you weep if I was drowning in a sea so deep?

If I lie in a permanent sleep, would you weep?
...

How many times are you going to hurt her?
She cries all the time
And her leaving him is not on her mind
With you she stays; And you will slap her if you don't have your way
...

As a young girl I was not taught how to love
I grew up in turmoil; my parents divorced
So how was I to learn love?
My mother never spoke of the birds and the bees;
...

He's cold on the outside and warm within.
He's a sinner and not a winner.
Name calling is what he is about, When he gets impatient he screams and shout.
Degrading names is what comes out his mouth
...

As we danced I felt your touch
As we danced I felt like I needed you so much
Your skin is so smoothe and warm
Your love was sent from above
...

It's hard to let go of the past....
To be loved and to be fulfilled is what I long to have
But what is it worth? When you always end in hurt.
I try to figure these things out
...

It's amazing how you treat me, And somehow I still feel like you defeated me.
It may seem like it hurt, But trust me; it's much worse
I feel like you have been controlling me, because you said you love me but...You don't
You still love her and I feel like she is better than me.
...

In your arms is where I'd rather be
I want you next to me
I crave your energy
I long for your touch
...

Pretty but not smart she makes all the wrong choices.
She know she has to do right but she keep hearing these voices.
A beautiful face could fool anyone.
But does she have the intelligence to be someone?
