Dear Love

I'm meant to write sooner but I have just been busy, simply because you are the one that left me feeling dizzy...
I am not mad, I just think it’s messed up that you don't answer fast...
You are still the same since I last saw you and yes I still have the scars just so to remind me of you...
Slick and u creep unannounced like a thief in the night; you came my way when I was not expecting your sight...
Why did you have to do what you did if you didn't want to do it...?
All you had to say was that I'm not for you and you were not here to stay...
And for that you left me with hate, unbearable pain and you say you showing me my mistakes...
When we both know that your existence is the mistake...
I begged and pleaded for you, wishing and hoping that you would listen to me...
But to you I'm the puppet that you pull the strings to a never ending play...

So hear me out and hear me good when I say...
That you are not going to change me for I am this way...
Pity is just a shame that you think that you are in control were as truth be told I will not let you, as an unseen entity to move my being...

Kind regards
You

So Be It

So I’m left standing alone all alone in the cold
Waves of warmth are vivid and unclear
That forces the watery winks from a shattering glass
That echo deep within my heart
For I thought for once I will see you look back
Well so be it, I’m better off in the dark alone

Wait....

The darkness is my friend that I have never feared
The only fear was that I will be half way the devil when he speaks
All alone in a box with no breath or soul
But glimpse of mental will still liger as I have been perceived as a failure
And with ever bitter said about what was you
Just bring a self-deformity of shame and disgust
But so be it, ya’ll was just pretending and never liked me anyway

Ok.....

Well yeah so be it, for I have realize that I have no place in your life
And all along I was made to believe that I was actually something of value
Where as to you it was just a contract of monetary gain
And I had to suffer the loss of memories of you and I
But instead you instill the hate for what you have done and what you want me to do
Forcing me to go against everything I believe in just so you are of ease
So be it, like so be it I will just stand alone for my own peace.

Dear You

Is it really you, or should I say who do you think you are?
Coming at me with hate that can finish who I are…
Why is it that you fail to just see with your mind?
And not point fingers simply because of you.

You are the result of me
For there was two and because of me there is three
I was planted from first sight so that you can grow
And you come at me with hate that can finish who I are…

Look, yes I’m not perfect nor am I a god
But I know that the creator brought me here for a purpose
And with me he built this existence that you are in
Through me he had a vision
That everyone gets to feel me and that includes you
Now more than ever you need not want I
But it is a matter of fact that you are about to perish without I

I’m sorry that my work is slow
But then you must be patient
I know that I’m not with time
But then you must do something
I know that I’m not perfect
But you must build your perfection
I know that I might not be truth
But you just have to remain honest

Yet you come at me with hate that can finish who I are…
I am love and I am emotional
But I know that you deserve me for a happy life
You are angry because I came not as a partner
But in fact you should learn to accept me for the partner to see

So don’t come at me with hate
Cause with hate I will fade
And you will be a body with no soul
And forever you will be cold.
I LOVE YOU

Kind regards
Love

Narcotic that arouses not normal expressions but...

All I Wanted

All I ever wanted was not of what you didn’t want
But of what will be for you and me,
Just a touch from you to accelerate and solidify us,
Just a kiss that is unexpected forever a surprise to my heart
With invisible words that endlessly say I love you
All I wanted was for me and you to take on the world
A partnership that with stands great lengths
That cannot be shaken or warry by the living deeds
We should be at ease and enjoying the peace
All I wanted was your affection as assurance
Assuring me that my heart is safe and will be well kept
Kept safe and not hurt by our pleasure being together
All I wanted was for you to be mine without unspoken words.

Permission To Hate You

I don’t know what happen that we ended this far
This far is our hearts so far apart
Apart from all there is no longer a room to enjoy your beam
And once upon a time your beam was my reason for my ecstasy
Thus I ask permission for me to hate you

I don’t know what it is that I did for me to deserve YOUR hate
Knowing very well that countless times I said we will fade
And now that it is a reality you look at me with disgust like it’s my fault
If that is the case then open the curtains so I can give you applause
Thus I request your permission for me to hate you

Your love and feeling was just like your hair and face FAKE
When every day you used a word that you know no meaning of “FATE”
And you go and actualize a rumor and you say I don’t have RESPECT
In actual fact you are the one that lacks respect for your moral ASPECT
Pity, I have no choice but to ask for permission to hate you

So much I can say because you blame me that we are now astray
I’m sorry I can’t take the blame because for you with my heart my dues are paid
So sorry you have no hold over me because you lost that freedom
All thanks to you, you have given me keys to my new kingdom
My house my rules, because I’m nothing like you and I’m a human,
Thus I will ask for permission to hate you

When all hope is lost you like to portray a saint
Saint… then I supposes it is a mistake
Simply because you are living on fake faith
And you are unable to maintain the grace
I aint no saint nor pretend, hence I ask for permission to hate you

None the less I will not hate you simply because I actually LOVE YOU
Something I think you still have a long way to learn about
I will not hate you because you hated the idea of us
But you was overwhelmed by control and loved the feeling of use
Well guess you got what you wanted and it is right by you
But in the end, for who you are, you don’t deserve my hate.

Broken Heart

B een a while since we are together with no change but yet my...
R oar of pain is louder than the sound of our joy...
O pened by what was thought to be an everlasting entity...
K nowing very well that u had cruel and hidden intentions...
E very day I awake and break like a shattering soundless falling glass yet you...
N ever took the time to listen to what it means...

H ow do you string a cord that has a meaningless sound but yet...
E very time you dance like there is a beat that moves us to the required destination..
A gain you speak senseless with no remorse because to you it is no pain...
R elevance in your eyes is blind for the ultimate goal for you and eye but...
T oday I ask that you take the time to realize that what you thought we having is slowly fading...

Birthday

It was on this day that I saw first light
Only a couple of day before I can gain sight
A sight that would be an influence to my being
A motivation that drives and compliments my doing

Every day is new and I can’t stop learning
Learning that life will not always be what we yearning
But instead it is what you make it to turn out
Like a chef on a signature dish, you have to do it more than once

It is not always roses and peaches with nectar sweet
That attracts the birds and the bees
But it is a never ending dig just so one gets that ounce
It was on this day that I had a sudden realization
A realization that life has no hesitation
The only hesitation is when one is not true about life

She Was

She was the picture of peace for my spirit
That picture that said “it’s ok” when I saw it
She was of a good nature mellow down to earth
So worthy that everyday was joyful because of her being my perk
She was my illusion that God is walking on earth
The thought of being with her was of a protection from ones guardian 

In her eyes was the comfort my heart seek
And with her ears that she would always listen when I speak
Her lips was for utter, utter words of with mellow voice and
Slay the dragon in me with a gentle touch of greetings
She was not of material but of life’s blessings
And with her I was rich with no pressure to fulfill the unwanted

She was what I have always dreamt of
Filling excitement like a miner 
From 9 to 5 after hard work of torturous terrain
Coming back home was like a vacation that was worth the wait
Knowing that I will be healed from the pain
The pain instilled by the day strains
With her I knew that life will never be the same
For it was when she accepted me it was a life time gain

But none the less all is but a fading picture
Fading from one drop of my tear that she was
Everything is now a tattoo on my heart
A constant reminder that she was and will never be is
Days and nights have broken with sweat just for retention
But instead it was the fading picture that was becoming clear
Clear that she will stay was and no chance or option for is again

I Wish

I wish u was mine and mine alone
So I could be able to say she is mine and mine alone...
I wish u was mine and we could share a life including each dime...
I wish u was mine so every day I could hold your hand float on cloud nine...
I wish u was mine so I could show u what it means that u are in my life...
I wish u was mine and mine alone so every man can know how much u are mine...
I wish u was mine so I could dig the deepest mine just to prove my worth...
I wish u was mine so u could know that nothing means anything on earth...
I wish u was mine so as to be the richest man alive because u filling me with your love...
I wish u was mine so as u know that life means nothing if I was not yours...
But u are not mine and I pray that the one that says "u are mine" knows how much it means to him when he says "U ARE MINE"...
