Beautiful black woman,
What do you see?
I see an African Queen,
You deserve all the riches, Paradise, and the finer things.
...

This poem is in dedication to my father Laymen Johnson

You are truly something special,
Someone who never tries to hurt.
...

This brother here is so fine.
This fine boy is so divine.
He may get in trouble, he may even hurt.
You can't tell,
...

When I am sad or something is wrong,
it's because of a disappointment.
It's been 12 years and sometin always goes wrong.
I wonder the two people who made me,
...

A true friend should never let you hurt.
A true friend should never treat you like dirt.
A true friend should always be by your side.
A true friend should never let you die.
...

How do I feel?
Do I feel happy or sad?
I dont know, I maybe.
Could it be that I am sad?
...

How do I look?
Do I look like a tall tree?
How do I look?
Do I look free?
...

If I felt good,
Do you think I would look so gloomy each and every day?
If i felt good,
Do you think I would feel this way?
...

If you knew how I felt,
how i feel when i see you.
I feel happy when you talk.
I feel happy when we walk.
...

A beautiful day to me,
Is when the sun is high up in the sky.
A beautiful day is when the flowers are in a nice blossom,
In all colors red, blue, purple, and green.
...

How can I love someone
when i feel so hurt
How can i love someone
when they treat me like dirt?
...

Do you have an influence,
everybody should.
You just sit their day and day and day
and wonder...............
...

Sometimes I get so tired,
so tired of the cheating and the lying.
Sometimes I get so tired,
so tired of all noise and all the hating.
...

What i like about me,
hmmm let me think,
everything! !
My face, bumps, and my beautiful eyes
...

I am stepping on the rocks,
of losing my mind.
Of stop letting everything in.
I am so tired of what's within me.
...

You were always on
my mind,
as soon as I found out your name.
And as soon as I saw your face,
...

Lord, it is really killing me.
This thing that has been
going on between me and you.
That I've never told
...

Sometimes I used to wonder,
what it would be like to have a daddy at home.
I have just realized I've had it all along.
I used to wonder,
...

Man, I love you so,
and we love love so much,
but it comes to hate us.
Is it because love it is not meant for us.
...

You stay on my mind,
each and every day.
Since I have moved on,
so I guees you have too.
