Memorable Past

The feelings that I have for you, is not gone
For they still linger inside my open heart
I pray someday, that I will let you go
But for now, I do not know

The past, oh, I remembered it so well
When I fell head over heels for you, I knew you could tell
We never did get the chance to explore
And now there is an unfulfilled open door

I would grab at the moment for what we know is near
Yet my soul, am afraid to loose and that is what I fear
Our love is like no one else,
Because, we can't control the attraction that we must have felt

I wished we could make love at least once
But we can't because we have someone
Yet in our hearts our love will forever last
never forgetting our memorable past

Just Another Victim

Just another victim that is what I am,
As I am being abused, by the hands of a jealous man,
Beaten every day, it is my fault that I am here?
Then why is it that, no one else seems to care,

Stuck in this empty room, every single day,
Can’t get out, no matter how hard I pray,
Only to wait for him to come again,
And take whatever he wants; will it ever end?

I cried myself to sleep every single night,
Trying to ask God in the process, to take my life,
Empty as I am; I will never be free,
Left in the darkness, after he is through with me,

This is my life, his servant & slave,
Loneliness is my friend, his wrath I can’t escape,
For I am a victim, that is what I am,
Stuck in this life where I am abused, 
By this mad man.

Second Chance

If I could get a second chance,
Then maybe you would still be with me,

Too bad your just a remembrance,
That I get to keep with me,

I never had the chance,
To experience life with you,

And before we all knew it,
You just left and I did not get to,

If you could have seen all the struggles I went through,
Then maybe.........
Just maybe you would have never left by my side,

And for all the pain and hurt I had fallen to,
You were always on my mind,

You maybe gone for now but I wont forget,
The day that my twin and I once met.

Smiling At Him

Smiling at him
I wonder if he knew
What I was thinking
& what I intended to do

He was the first guy
That I really liked
Oh his beautiful smile
I wished for him to be mine

Tall, dark and handsome
He must came out of a story book
In my pages
I wanted him to take a look

He was the one
That I want in my life
He was the guy
I would love to be his wife

Over & over again
He came in my head
Taking me to worlds I hardly knew
Strangely enough he was  in my bed

For he was mine
And I was his
Even if I am
Only his mistress.
