LOVE INDEED...


Not spending your nights alone

You want to redo everything

Their words activate your soul

Your days are no longer cold


Time seems to go so fast

Feel complete when they get back

Taste their kisses in the wind

You think of futuristic things


Awakening with them on your brain

can't go a day without talking to them

Feels like something is missing the whole day

Until the moment they show up again


You believe in them, no matter what others say

No one can't break you apart

You know they are your soul mate from the start

They will forever, remain in your heart











IS OVER WHEN...


There is nothing left to be said

Words that you said can't be replaced

You wish the day was over

They give you their cold shoulder


You wish that you was elsewhere

When you look at them, there is no one there

Nothing else they say make you smile

Your mind is filled with so much doubt


Arguing becomes the new way to talk

You want to take shorter walks

You don't miss them throughout the day

Your heart is filled with cry-full pain


Everything becomes more than what it is

Puzzled with questions deep within

When your body no longer wants their affection

and your heart is no longer at attention











SORRY...


I thought you had my back

until the very end

as I would done for you

you was my own best friend


Your sorry, for no thinking

before your actions

you hope that I forgive you

but got a different reaction


Trust is so hard to obtain

but, harder to maintain

It all went down so fast for us

like a house burning down in flames


Please don't go, you asked me

but, I never felt this hurt

I was not good enough for you then

Sorry, will just not work











THE GAME...


Is in this game

You were so mixed

Believe it you was there

She took your soul everywhere


She fooled you into believing

You needed her to survive

But, she destroyed your man hood

With everything you tried


At the point, that you met her

you were married to the streets

instead of your lonely wife

Who what’s there for you in need


In the game, you got lost

and she still remains the same

that's the last we heard of you

messing 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-in

That 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 said

and 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 again

For 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 gone

No, I don't feel angry any more

but, my heart feels like is torn







C.H.A.R.I.T.Y


Coins, dollars and water bottles

I see y'all give them away

I'm hungry and thirsty

May I please have some today?



I apologize, did not see your there

I want to go home but, where?

The train and buses I do not own

but, where else can I call home



I need some money, is not for drugs

Can you see that I am just lost?

I need to feed my children

but, I can’t afford the cost


Tomorrow is another day

I'll stop begging y'all for now

Thank you for all you giving

and see you again somehow









DON'T SAY GOODBYE


Where there is love, there is a tomorrow

It is your love that I will fallow

Please be mines without a fight

Promise you'll make it alright


I will love you always

I will never leave your sight

Please say that you will be mines

and love me until the end of time


No one will ever replace

The good and the love we share

It will never fade away

because, it will always be there


It is you that I adore

Please 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 bright

the skies never seem so clear

the winters never been this warm

until the day you appeared



My days never felt so short

my heart never been this jumpy

I ache at the thought of your kisses

your lips is what I been missing


Thank you, for all that you give me

for your words of courage and wisdom

for being so thoughtful to me

and giving me your love endlessly


Without you, I feel so empty

my days never the same

I pray, you will always be here

and our love forever remains










I'M YOURS


I give you my all

heart, body and soul

tell you my best kept secrets

and anything that's missing



I give you myself

complete and truthfully

I'll give you anything

and everything you need


I pray for us each day

I say each prayer with grace

I finally found someone

who puts a smile on my face


I am yours, today, tomorrow and always

you cannot be replaced

your all I'm thinking of

each day that I awake










BODY OF LOVE


My Face

Lights up lights up when I see yours, smiling back at me

My Eyes

Will not blink for a second, because I don't want to miss anything

My Nose

Loves to have you close to me so, that I can smell your cologne

My Legs

Tremble at the thought of you and the sound of your sexy voice

My Hands

Have to hold your hands each day so, that I can feel safe again

My Lips

Can't wait to kiss yours again because they are as sweet as candy

My Ears

Like to hear you say my name because, it sounds special coming from you

My Heart

Feels so empty when we are apart because, you carry pieces of my heart



DEEP


I gave up on love

I said I'll never love again

Love was long gone from my system

but, you showed me what I was missing



I felt it deep in my heart

Maybe, everything else was apart

Now, I'm swimming like a dove

Can you blame me I'm in love



Love never entered this way

My heart never felt this great

I thank God for you each day

and, that I found in you my soul mate



Deep into this ocean of love

I never thought I would dive so hard

Now, there is nothing we can do

but, wish that we never part








REST IN PEACE


All this time I tried to change you

I should of loved you for you

You always loved me the same

Despite of what we've been through



They say you never know

What you got until is gone

You were a star to many of us

Who now feel so alone



You made a difference in our lives

Our hearts will never forget you

You are one of a kind

No one could ever replace you



Our hearts are now broken

No one could mend it together

I know, today I have to say goodbye to you

but, it will not be forever








CAPTURED


You have something of mines

That I guarded all this time

Your words broke down my walls

I feel just like a new born


How can I ever go back

My heart loved you from the start

Loving you made me feel so complete

With out you I can not breath


You make me feel I can fly

Like the world belongs to us

I feel like a child at play

For the first time in a park


Tell me you will never leave me

That our love will always stay

Today, tomorrow and always

We will forever remain











SCARED


Some say love hurts

well, I feel the pain

I can't get the feeling out my brain

The one that makes my heart strain


You say that you love me, In conclusion

How come I can't see it ?

How come I can't feel it ?

All I seem to know is confusion


I feel lost and alone

No reason for us to remain

All we have is painful memories

Of what we had to sustain


I thought we would never end

You and I was were never meant

Now all I do is regret

That 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 heart

It was visible like a star

you will never be true to me

should of known that from the start


Deep feelings of regrets and beyond

I should of went with my thoughts

said it will not last forever

I guess I was not that clever


Now I'm sitting here. Alone and confused

lost for words and feeling used

but, I have to think of tomorrow

to a place where there is no sorrow


I never should of took it there

even though my heart for you still cares

but, now I have to make it back home

without you, I should of known




GOODBYE NEW YORK


Goodbye New york

City of Sorrow

Hello sweet country

Love is in the air

Goodbye again New York




THE ONE


He is not short, nor too tall

His smile drives me insane

I melt away when I hear his name

His smile make me so weak

IT WAS LIFE...


It was a beautiful day

I notice the way you spoke

I felt the love in the air

It was stronger then I ever known


I continued to see the light

I held my fears inside

I did not want to hurt again

I felt that once in my life


I wondered what you were thinking

I looked at you as you started speaking

I gave you all that you needed

It all started on that weekend


I am sitting hear reminiscing

I love the way my heart melts

I am so glad that I found you

It was life that I felt




HOLD ON”


Whispers of sweet love

Your kisses is all I wanted

No one compares to you

Like a wish you was granted



I spent all my life away

Now, I'm here by your side

I pray that we never part

I know you wont break my heart



I will always be here for you

As long as you hold on too

The night that you said “I love you”

All my wishes have came true



So unreal, this feeling

My heart feels so brand new

I cant imagine life

without the sight of you








NEVER PART...


The day finally arrived

and boy, was I surprised

I looked into his eyes and felt so pleased

then he got down on one knee



He asked me, will you marry me?

I said yes, instantly

There was nothing to think about

I love him without a doubt


The question was answered

As the days went by we eloped

You can see we truly are in love

Everyday we see it grow


Now we completed each other

With every piece of our heart

We took a bow to love one another

until death, do us apart










LOVE HURTS


Some say love is like a pleasure

that it feels like a hidden treasure

can you truly love someone

and not have been through the pressure


Love can hurt you in so many ways

love can leave you in a daze

get prepared for was ahead

or it can leave you for dead


Love never feels like is real

Is like you been drench by the rain

don't be surprised your in love

It will never be the same


If is real love, you will nearly go insane

love will never leave your brain

It will never save your heart

That's why it hurts from the start




S.T.R.A.N.G.E.R.S


Our paths will always bring us back

the love we shared was made to last

it will never seized from our souls

because we still care through it all



Separated since an early age

everyday that passed we felt the pain

today, tomorrow and always

lets not wait until is too late



For many years my tears they flowed

It showed me that our love was strong

never imagined that it will take this long

to be together now that we are grown



I saved myself for you

My heart will never be untrue

face the fact that your in-love with me

and strangers we'll no longer be








REAL LOVE


The night was still young

beautiful as our new love

we held each other for so long

It was magic all day long



Our spirits joint together

our mind,body and souls awoke

we knew it from the start

this love was meant to embark


We were both gentle

as we should have acquired

falling into a deep ocean of love

and full of wet desires


As we joined together as one

we said, I love you at once

I'm glad we saved the best for last

when I love you said it back










E.M.O.T.I.O.N.S


Like the bees and flowers

together we go

whispers from the wind

bring us back home



Surrender your heart to me

because, I will never hurt you

my words reveal my true soul

Our love will always grow



The winters are never cold

Our love makes the sea blue

no matter what we go through

my heart will belong to you



I'll look for you when I'm lost

because you are my guide

I want to be by your side

even if we both shall die








NOT A DREAM...


Standing in front of me

I could not blink my eyes

Afraid that if I close them

I will lose this beautiful site


I just wanted to be held

you did and then you left a spell

throughout the years our love grew stronger

our hearts knew who was their owner


Now here we are in love

some where to call our own

in your arms I feel so warm

wishing I never be left alone


The memories of this moment

will always remain in my heart

it was real at first sight

and this love for you I can't deny











UNHAPPY HOME


Happiness

What is that ?

You smile for a while then back to a frown


There is no happiness, not in this home

filled with no trust

and no one to hold


Trying to remember, the good times we shared

and it brings me right back

to the days that you never cared


Happy home is what I'm after

now I just want to go back

to the happy home we once had















I FEEL IT


I feel it, deep with in

you got me, under your spell

a love like this I never felt

you stole my heart right from under my belt



I can not concentrate on nothing else

I cant sleep when we are apart

finally found someone that makes it last

thank you for being the best I had



I said I would never love again

but I cant imagine my life without you

everything has changed for the better

I will be with you in every weather



I feel the love deep inside my soul

I know that you are the one

please, don't give my love away

and we will forever remain








HEALING


Needing affection

wanting to be caressed

I felt so lucky

unlike the rest



Tell me your secrets

lets talk about us

goodnight kisses

and midnight hugs


Is like valentines

through out the years

no more sadness inside

or unhappy tears


healing has begun

the one I truly feel safe with

I thought you knew that I was blue

Healing can only come from you










IS IT OVER ?


Can we talk?

the world has became so cold

no need to stick around and feel strange

our love is now filled with pain



Do we really need to forget?

Our body language says we not able

Seeing each other feeling miserable

will not make it go away



Don't you wish that we've never met?

I never felt this sad inside

How will I ever replace what we had

My heart wants to forget you last



Is it over, will it last ?

Will we just regret our past

our love is to strong to be outgrown

Lets just go back to the place we used to call home








ALL, I HAD


I gave you my ALL

but you took everything I HAD

this love we shared turned into PAIN

I just no longer feel the SAME


I'm giving up on us once and for ALL

I miss my past and all I HAD

the chain is now broke I'm no longer in PAIN

and you are free to roam, is never the SAME


Today I freed my heart, I done with it ALL

I said goodbye to a love I HAD

wish I never felt the PAIN

I'm done with fighting to keep feeling the SAME


Think of me, I will forget it ALL

when you miss the joy in your life we HAD

when you feel alone and in PAIN

I will never go back to the SAME




I NEVER KNEW


When love is gone it takes your soul

nothing you do makes you feel whole

It takes your heart and flips it away

You never trust the same again


I opened my eyes, to find your not there

No one looking at me, no breathing on my neck

only the molds of your body where you once laid

the bed is so cold, I felt like if I was dead


I haven't been the same since you left

I thought we were inseparable

that nothing will ever get between us

I never saw it coming, Now stop and think



I am here to declare my love

I never knew I would feel this way about you

I cant help the way I feel so cold

please bay will you just come back home



BABY BLUES...


I can not wait to see your smile

Your soft hands holding my finger tight

waking up endlessly through out the night

just to make sure that you alright



I want to kiss your little cheeks

sitting there so rosy and pink

you as cute as a button with beautiful skin

keeping you safe from hurtful things



I want to give you daddy's last name

and my last will be the same

I will love you forever

no one could ever replace you



I am crying out to the world

send me an angel from above

until that day comes, I will just be blue

and sit right here and wait for you








MY ALL


I wrote you a letter

thought it was much clever

to tell you how I feel

the love I have for you is so real



Do you love me for me

because, I love you for you

your all that I ever wanted

like a real dream come true



You are my everything

I will never cause you pain

take me in your arm

before I go insane



Give me all of you

Ill give you mine all in return

For you I will conquer the world

because, you are my all

My definition of Love...


Saying the words through your eyes

your heart speaks from itself

being apart makes you want to cry

because you need them by your side


knowing that one day is not enough

feeling they are completely yours

you cant wait to sign on the dotted line

where your name becomes one of a kind


Never having to say your sorry

Not feeling emotionally used

Joy and laughter comes easy

Never feeling confused


Feeling like you won the lotto

being together for today and tomorrow

everyday feels like a glove


knowing they were sent from above



HE MAKES ME...


He makes me

Smile, cry and dream all in one

Laugh, joyful and happy inside

This one really stole my heart


He makes me

Feel like the world is always ours

Feel like I'm under misty rain showers

Feel secure about tomorrow


He makes me

Stop thinking negative thoughts

Understand the woman he loves

Feels as pretty as an angel above


He makes me

Want more of his love each day

Look at the stars in a different way

Love myself and love him the same



MISSING YOU


Sitting here reminiscing

what could I have done different

we can just turn back the hands of time

to a place where you was mines



Things have changed between us

there is no denying that

look back at the times we shared

it was ticking like a clock



I want it back, me and you

until the time stop ticking again

I want everything to remain

I will love you until my dying day



I miss you baby, please come back home

give me your heart, body and soul

don't leave me out in the rain

with out you I'll go insane








STOLE


I remember at one time

No one could get to my heart

It was not that I was shy

I just did not want to cry


My heart was blocked from abused

Feeling lost and misused

You made feel you was true

and I never felt confused


This was not supposed to happen

What have you done to me?

Loving you is so easy to do

My days with you are never blue


I wanted this for so long

My heart feels like it's own

I'm stronger then I've ever been

Thankful that my heart you stole











BROWN EYES


I look into his brown eyes

and I see our future indeed

clearly and so much that I couldn't before

this is the man that loves me forever more


I look into his brown eyes

and it makes me realize wow

many days that went by

and I never felt how I feel now


I look into his brown eyes

and he looks deep into mines

memories come back of our many happy times

he has never made me cry


I look into his brown eyes

all that I can do is smile

he makes me feel brand new

like a new born baby child



FEELINGS...


What are they really for

most people just

leave them at the door


Why make up then is all over

towards the end

reality bites so hard that you can even

be their friends


why should anyone care

soon enough they disappear

all the years wasted

with nothing to show but tears


If love is not what you want

don't keep that person around

make sure they keep a smile

and not making them just frown


Feelings that is all we have

you can place them in your path

never to return back

say goodbye and just leave it in the past







UN-PRETTY


Yes, you have a long nose

Yes, you have some big lips

what about the beauty

that only grows from within



Looking for perfection

for the world to never see

what about what your about

can they see that in a crowd



Everyone seems big on beauty

outside in the public eyes

what about that heart of gold

that we all possess inside



Can people see that you cry

can people see your alone

is not for them judge you

only the one from above








TEMPTATION


There you was, standing before me

like someone who did not know me

but, I knew I wanted you to be mines

It was all over my face and mind



You looked at me and I looked away

did not want you to see that it was written all over my face

I wanted you for just a while

you always make me want to smile



I kissed you once in a dark alley

but, it was all just a dream

then you woke me up when you said my name

but, I never felt the same



As you told me, you had the same dream

I wanted to be your fantasy

giving myself to you as I mentioned

but it was all just a temptation







TAKE ME AWAY


Take me away

From all this pain

from all the stress

from all the cries



I want you now

one day at a time

in a class of our own

where are bodies will unfold


Give me all of you

stay by my side

make me feel good inside

take me to ecstasy with your eyes


Take me in your new world

keep me safe from harm

don't ever leave or let me go

lets go to places nobody knows










A POEM FOR MY CHILD


Tiny feet and tiny hands

I promise to love you with all I have

I'll make sure your always safe and warm

You are unique, like no other one


You are such a beauty inside and out

my memories of you will never fade

from the first time I held you

I knew you were specially made


Growing up now, so fast in this cold world

I hope that you will always remember

mommy, loves you no matter what

because you are a piece of my heart
















DEAD WITH IN..


Where is my heart

where is my soul

you took it all

and then you was gone


I feel nothing inside

my tears all cried out

angry is not the word

I'm torn up in pieces you know


Finally I came to realize

you never loved me

how cant I be so blind

now I'm sitting here lonely


Dead with in

my souls in not complete

how can you be so cruel

and tell me that you love me




NOT ANYMORE


You said it first

I saved your soul

bur, I love you was just words

you showed me how to be so cold


you filled me with broken promises

you told me this would not happen

how come I feel lost and confused

bruised heart and confused


I thought you loved me for real

but that's not how I feel

my thoughts got to painful moments

all this seems just unreal


Give me my heart back

I don't want to be with you

we are not meant to be

look at what you put me through




MY LOVE...


Is unconditional, is so unreal

I give you my heart and soul

You can make it all yours

forever, is all I know



Give me your heart to make my own

I will never let you down

you will smile like a clown

I will always be around



Sweet kisses and hugs

make you feel secure each day

I will never try to change you

and be here for you always



My love, is what you want

my loving good from the start

no one will ever change that

because you are my better half
