Simply Close Your Eyes

Everytime I close my eyes we kiss,
Even though there is an ocean between us 
my mind always seems to find you. 
Sometimes I catch you brushing your teeth or
washing your hair. The times I remember most are 
when I find you starring into the night thinking of me
remembering times we spent together. 
I close my eyes often and share a brief moment in time with you.
For those are the times that drive me. You are the gas and I am the car
Fully loaded with love trying to make it down this bumpy road called life.
I only pray you dont leave me stranded......
But how could you when you need me as I need you~
I close my eyes now and see you sitting there at your desk reading this
thinking of me with an angelic smile across your face. 
You know I wrote this for and about you.........
and for that reason I will always live inside you.
Simply close your eyes.....

Addicted

I wake, work, eat, sleep, and dream you.
This emotional journey before us -
almost too much to bear sometimes.
Yet, every time I hear the ringing of the phone,
or see your name pop up online, 
I know that I am addicted to you.
But it is far more than that,
and please listen very closely.
I am a very reasonable and sane person,
not given to idle whims or fancies,
not taken in any more by false hopes and promises.
Yet, somehow, you are different - very different.
I don't know what happened, or how or why,
but I feel as though I fell out of a cloud,
tumbling down to earth to a sure death -
and at the last possible second,
you caught me in your arms.
Yes, I am addicted to you,
but I know the consequences of addictions,
and, fear not, I will not harm you
or cause you pain in any way.
Of that, I give you my humble word.
I want to breathe you, to feel you,
to taste you, and to hear your soft whispers
against the sensitive nape of my neck -
telling me that you're addicted, too.

Forgotten Family~

There I was standing on the corner,
Buildings were burning in the background.
As I held the young girl in my arms I realized,
She was just like me. 
Alone and forgotten in the world with nowhere to turn.
Her mother left when she was 6
Raised alone while her mother turned tricks,
Now look at what she has become
Lost and forgotten by most and hated by some.
Looking into her eyes I remember when I left
Her small face starring up at me as the door closed
Hearing her mother scream as the engine started
Driving away I forgot….a forgotten memory until this day
The day when she would need me.
The day when my heart finally returned
To my family~

If Looks Could Kill

If looks could kill
I would have died a thousand times
the way your eyes cut through me
the way things should be
All reminders of why you hate me

My life is lost without your love
No need for the heavens above
your love fit like a glove
keeping me warm when I needed you most
my heart for you i will forever toast

Do you see what I see?
please try and understand me
for you are my hearts only key
Locked my heart will forever be~ 
For you are my one and only wifey~

I am lost in my thoughts of you
rememebring all that we been through
and all the dreams that we both hold true
someday you will know......
I really did love you

Early Riser

I work with the lord on sunday
I call this my fun day
For all the people I see 
and the little boys that get close to me

Father this and father that
I hear all day as their on my lap
not again father a few may say
dont worry boy soon enough you'll be gay

learn to like it, hold your breath
or god will make you soon find death.
god can watch or turn the other way
Alls I know is......
God bless Sunday!

Coffee With Your Cream?

I got laid in starbucks the other day
I was workin on finishing my latte
when the manager came up to me and said hey
at first I was like go away but then i looked up

asking if I wanted another cup
I slowly sputtered out, Yup
damn girl you is fine
what I wouldnt give to make you mine

Must be your lucky day cutie
as sexy as you are you can have my bootie
finally she took me into the back
lifted her dress and bent over a stack

french vanilla....hell no bend over the hazelnut
and there I was banging away on her butt
her boss finally walked in and asked what she was doin
for i wasnt the first customer that she got caught screwin

this is it now you've got to go
you keep missin work and now you a hoe!
but please daddy it not as it seems
this nice young man just asked for fresh cream~

Office Love Affair~

Looking at the back of your head
wondering if your face is red
with the thought of my kisses
and all the places they would land 
If I were only granted my wishes

Lips softened with love 
Hearts soaring high like a dove
Is this what they were speaking of...
My father taught me to be a man
To walk with your love hand in hand
To carry you when you cannot stand

How do I know its true love?
because since I first saw you 
I thanked the gods above
For sending such a beautiful person to me
and for making me into "we"
Now alls I think about is thee thee thee~

Mental Molestation

As I probe within the depths of my mind
Searching for all there is to know about you
little by little I discover the person you've become
and the more I learn the more I forget.
Now I am trapped within you
surrounded by you comp heart races as I notice the changes
little at first then growing into pain
how did I get here? why did I come?
I thought I knew you but now I see we lost touch long ago
my life without you seems empty
I look for you in my dreams when I close my eyes
you looked close enough to touch and then you were gone
why do all the people in my mind keep leaving me? 
am i not good enough for them?
My mind wanders looking for sanity but
I find nothing except an empty condom wrapper~

Family Found

Lost in my love for you 
I find our daughter,
Starring into her eyes I see you 
Within her heart filled with joy
You see me,
Living within her dreams we both exist,
Her family that’s all she knows
A family we will forever be, 
You, our baby and me.

Drunk Again

I went to a bar with Goose… 

I got drunk again

fell off my stool…

damn I got drunk again

I met this hott chick…

too bad I got drunk again

I kissed a fat girl…

I must be drunk again!

they kicked me out of the bar…

because I got drunk again

I threw up on myself…

I hate being drunk again

finally got home the next day…

doors locked and wife screaming

Sorry but I got drunk again!
