The Appreciation

your voices is melodic,a hand in time disowned and misleading
used to lure the unsure to pure heavenly meaning
guide me,find me because ive lost my way in this forest of misery
sick thoughts are greedy and avaricious crows pecking at my mind,destroying me 
all of my life my tongue has never truly tasted,my efforts truly wasted
trying to find love,and failure,i unruly,cruelly based it
on my own so called flaws,cursin my reflection as i faced it
id envy others beauty,their perfection evasive
to me as i saw them on television,and in school wrapped in perfume and beards
the white hot pain despair,i feared
would burn me alive....
until u came along and showed me how flowers felt,and why ice cream melts
how soft hands were and how hands were dealt
u said beauty is only a mold,a mold everyone tries to fit everyone to
and if they dont have everything theres one thing they do
call you ugly,i cringe at it and despise the word
but as u subside my thirst for curse,
u gave me other things to feel besides the hurt...
oh gosh..
now as i stand here beside your hearse
i wanted to say thank you,my lady songbird...
i heard your final chirp...

Just Fine

Girl i ya unsure,the way i be sometimes
but dont u ever just relax,u the only one on my mind
with nobody else,why would i ever be?
because u my soul mate u already showed that to me
i love your eyes,brownest in summertime
u knowing just what to doi,to get you to smile
no more jealousy,only kisses in my favorite way
Nowadays,sad to say,everybody want to breakaway
nothings gonna make u fall from heaven,angel
nothing gonna ruin your day,sunshine
cuz if u do your part like ive done mine..
we should be just fine.


Cant I just hold u close,stop being strange
Insecurity,gotchu actin this way
Your hair turns gray,you have bad days
im still  gonna stay,aint gonna change
you told me once before
almost to the door
you wanted something more
and i wasnt providing babe
because i was just getting close to your heart
back in those days i was inside it babe
now ive decided babe
nothing gonna make you fall from heaven,angel
nothing gonna ruin your day,sunshine
cuz if u do ya part like ive done mine
i can guarantee,
well be just fine.

Clearer Skies

My eyes immersed in the mourning as i set my spirit aflame
with the fire of regret and anguish,none can extinguish the crave
for the things once passed,the wants longed for,the end of the day
why did you go so soon?
when you kissed me,it used to be warm like a a roomful of flowers
on a warm sunday afternoon
I still remember your taste,your life,your antics and semantics..
so vital and vivid,vivacious and outrageous
laughter of joy was so contagious...
now a flower has grown and no one has known it died
every day a petal gets blown away
all forget,then remember......
You always told me why you couldnt be alone...and i know it couldnt be just another pose
people who have be hurt alot have to be a thorny rose
defending and deflecting ,all those who want to be loving and protecting
you used to be so neglecting
of anger,of hate,of lies, and of greed
except when you were taking all of me...
but now the months and years go..
and the well spring of tears flow slows...
gone is my angel...
and though others minds forget..my spirit knows..
climbing the mountain of acceptance ,to get to the peak of peace
Clearer skies,
are what we all should seek,at least.
