Alone In My Room

Alone in my room I stare at the wall
 and at the back of my mind I hear my conscience call
 telling me I need a girl whose as sweet as a dove
 for the first time in my life I see I love
 love has taken its hold
 a willingness to unfold
 onto something greater then ever before
 lest I forget to open the door
 love is the mere essence of my existence
 it will soon pay off with much persistence
 a very unique call
 this blows apart the know it all
 love was here so long ago
 bust up the beat to increase the tempo
 in the way you should go
 when I look deep into your eyes it is then I see a future
 such as Renee with Ahston Coutour
 love is the flame that will ignite my potion
 love is the mark of courage 
 love is the calmness of the ocean

 Each of us matter in the grand scheme of things
 some of us get locked in some crazy schemes
 yet its not over until the fat lady sings
 to every soldier in there battle
 for every cow amidst the cattle
 love is the sought duration of time
 use what you have left to withstand the true test of time
 to the hooker out on the street
 to the junkie trying to get his fix treat
 never relent toward defeat
 you are a true soldier in this battle
 just like a baby enjoying its rattle
 we lose sight of the prize when we faint inside
 there is no where to run away & hide
 many of us are content to let things slide
 seek to know truth with all of your heart
 then you will light the flame that ignited the spark to what it is that were waiting for.
