Don'T Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you're running seems all up hill,
When the funda are low and the debts are high, 
And you want to smile but you have to sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit 
Rest if you must but don't you quit!

Life is strange with it's twist and turns
As everyone of us sometimes learns.
And many a failure turns about 
When you might have won but ypu struck out.
So don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.

See succees is failure turned inside out.
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you can never see how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far.
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
Because it's when things seem wrong that YOU MUST NOT QUIT!

You'Re My Man

You're my man, my mighty king,
And I'm the jewel in your crown,
You're the sun so hot and bright,
I'm your light-rays shining down,

You're the sky so vast and blue,
And I'm the white clouds in your chest,
I'm a river clean and pure,
Who in your ocean finds her rest,

You're the mountain huge and high,
I'm the valley green and wide,
You're the body firm and strong,
And I'm a rib bone on your side,

You're an eagle flying high,
I'm your feathers light and brown,
You're my man, my king of kings,
And I'm the jewel in your crown

Life Just Isn'T

Life isn about keeping score of right and wrong.
It’s not about how many people you call.
And its not about  who you’ev dated, are dating, or haven’t dated at all.
It isn’t about who you’ve kissed, who you’ve hasd sex with , which boy or girl likes 
you or who played you or  who you’ve played.
It isn’t about the color of your skin ,or the color of the skin you date.
It’s not about your shoes clothes, hair, money, or colleges that accept or 
unaccepted you are.
Life just isn’t about that !

But life is about who you love and who you hurt.
It’s about how you feel about yourself.
Its about trust, happiness, and compassion.
It’s about sticken up for ya friends, and replacing inner hate with love.
Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance, and building confidence.
Its about choosing to use your life to touch someoneelse’s in a way that could 
never have been achieved otherwise.
THE CHOICES ARE WHAT LIFE IS ALL ABOUT!

Lay Down and Die

My love for you, 
Is so strong & true. 
I send you my love, 
By using a white dove. 
Although you are far away, 
On my mind is where you stay. 
I can't live with the pain, 
Of never seeing you again. 
I've heard that absence makes the heart grow fonder, 
Thats one thing that makes my love for you grow stronger. 
My feelings for you have never been so strong, 
Baby, nothing can go wrong. 
But if your love for me said goodbye, 
It would make me want to lay down & die.

Desire For Honey Bun

Just the sight of you,
Out of the corner of my eye, 
Makes my mouth unbelievably watery. 
The way you look back at me,
as a gaze at you,
gives me unbelievable chills. 
Chills that provide my imagination with all types of thrills.
Thrills Just awaiting me, awaiting the passionate love we share 
With just that simple kiss, touch, and  a smile 
that once one takes that transpiring bite.
Under the dim light, I can see the faint outline of every curve, 
That sweetly outlines your shape that continually keep my eyes in awe so that 
I can’t draw my eyes from your Light brown complexion. 
Then slowly you persuade me to help you,
Help you take off your sheer layering slowly and carefully. 
As I assist in the games that, this beauty has possessed me to play, 
I begin to become consumed with the most pleasant and mind easing scent, 
The scent of sweet glaze and butter and light cinnamon that drives me wild, 
However I regain control and realize the work at hand, 
Finally once I have you naked and revealed to my eyes, 
I begin to take you into my mouth and take in that wonderful, 
Mind blowing sweetness that takes me under every single time
I get the opportunity to place you in my mouth.
And I will wait till next time, until I see you out the corner of my eye, 
And invite me to come take all of you into my sense to enjoy that sweetness, 
That you always have to offer me and that only you can provide 
That I always desire to have.
 Oh how I love my honey bun.

Sorrows Underneath

I think of all my problems.
I think of all my pains.
I think of all my sorrows
Until I go insane.

I think of all the smiles I’ve worn
Which hides my sorrow underneath 
No one seems to notice.
That I go through so much grief.

My tears seem to keep flowing
Inside my tired eyes.
Each time I want to tell you
But, my words come out as lies.

These days I’m felling distant,
Faraway and weak.
My sadness pulls me further,
From the happiness I seek.

I’ve just begun to realize, 
That my hopes and dreams are gone,
I’m walking down a dead-end-road
Humming a tuneless song.

I’m standing on a rooftop, although I’m afraid of heights.
I’m watching the cars underneath me move,
And somehow this doesn’t feel right.

Now I think of what I’m doing
I know I could find a way 
To beat through my depression 
And start living a brighter day.

I Love You a Lot

I know it sounds funny
But it's coming from my heart

When you talk to me 
my heart skips a beat
there is something about you i like
But I don't think other people can see what i see in you
i love you for you
and nothing more
When i'm around you
i'm always smiling or laughing bout something
if I ever loose you again 
i will have to kill myself and that's a fact
my friends say you're cheating on me
is it true?
Can you swear on both mine and your life that you will never cheat on me?
if you love me as much as you say you do then you will
i will alwayz love you
and i will never change you
but please don't tell me
that i carved your initials in my ankle for nothing..

Wise Friend

Having you as my friend 
I learned that there are those, 
few who believe a friend 
is cherished, not mocked or set aside 
for any reason. 
Having you as my friend 
has lifted my spirits, made my days brighter, allowing me to be me 
you encouraged me to not just 
accept each day as it comes, but 
to make each day count. 
Having you as my friend 
opened my heart to achievement 
take a stand for myself because 
no one else will, to expect the 
unexpected. 
Having you as my friend 
has me not lonely, but missing you 
greatly now that I can't visit 
you as much as I'd like. 
Having you as my friend 
has been, will always be forever 
kept close in heart and on my 
mind. 
Having you as my friend 
is what I wanted, and yet not expected, 
Leaving others jealous. 
Having you as my friend 
and I as your friend is a 
friend that is, 
PRECIOUS.

I Love You &Good Bye

I went out one night and remebered what you said
You told me not to drink and drive so i had a sprite instead

i felt proud of myself the way you said i would,
That i didn't drink and drive even though some of my friends said i should.

I made a healthy choice and your advice to me was right 
As the party finally ended the kids drove out of sight.

I got into the car sure to get home in one piece
I never knew what was coming mom something  expected the least.

Now i'm lying in the pavement and i hear the policeman say
''The kid that caused this wreck was drunk.'' mom his voice seems so far away

My own blood all around me as i try hard not to cry.
I can hear the paramedic say this girl is gonna die.

I'm sure the guy had no idea while he was fying high
Because he choose to drink and drive now i would have to die.

so why do people do it knowing that it ruins lives?
And now the pain is cutting me like a hundred stabbing knives.

Tell my sisters and brothers not to be afraid, Mom tell daddy to be brave,
And when i go to heaven put daddy's little girl on my grave

Someone should of taught him that it's wrong to drink and drive
maybe if his parents had if i would still be alive.

My breath is getting shorter, Mom i'm really scared
These are ny final  moments and i'm so unprepared.

I wish that you could hold me mom as i lie here and die.
I wish that i could say i Love You mom, So I Love You & Goodbye!

The Heat of My Desire

In the still of the evening
Without sunlight to intrude
I see the twilight's in your eyes
As the moon sets up the mood

Playing music soft and low
While romance fills the air
I can't help but feel aroused
The very moment you come near

You submit to my embrace
While candles flick their flame
And the smell of sweet perfume
Seems to drive your lust insane

As I look into your eyes
And run my fingers through your hair
I taste the sweetness of your neck
As I nibble at your ear

I then whisper words of love
As you answer with a sigh
And in a very sexy way
Your sweet body comes alive

Your the heat of my desire
As we slowly come undress
I then start to lay you down
While you welcome my caress

With my luscious sexy curves
I have a taste you can't resist
And my breast show some response
When you touch them with a kiss

As I soak inside your love
To a sexy love condition
Feeling passions start to rise
While making love in all positions

You give me so much pleasure
For ecstasy is here
With you wrapped inside my arms
To this heated love we share

Now no one can come close
To this love that we inspire
For only you can fill this joy
And the heat of my desire
