Insight

I don’t know what is expected of me,

I do know that I have knowledge to allow myself to see,

To see better days and gorgeous nights,

To see that everyday is a struggle that along comes with new plight.

 

But within those struggles do bring about better times,

And it is those very thoughts that I keep within my mind,

The world is an obstacle; it’s just the matter how you’re going to hop through it,

And while you’re making it through this world always push on and never say quit!

Never give up and quit on your goals,

And never step out of line just remember your role,

Remember why we were place upon this Earth,

That meaning should have came to you right there at birth.

 

I was confused at first because I didn’t know why I was placed here,

I walked around acting like no one bother to even care,

No one cared if I was to live or die,

And because of my selfish ways I caused a lot of people to cry.

 

But if I could take back all that pain I’ll do it in a flash,

Because I want to reminisce on better days within my past,

But the future is starting to look good, that is something I’ll have to say,

So I see there are miracles when we bow our heads to pray!

 

I’m not a minister nor would I claim to be,

But I can’t be brainwash no more because my eyes are wide open to see,

Beauty is all around us it’s not that hard to reach,

Before I was going after rotten fruits but now I’ve founded a perfect peach.

 

Someone who is so beautiful with an exquisite face,

And saying your name never leaves a bad feeling or a sour taste,

Nicole, I nearly gave up on angels until you came into my world,

I just want to be near you and hear you say that you’re my girl.

 
Trust and honesty does go hand-in-hand,

And trust me babes I’ll never want to do you wrong, just to be your man!

Whenever you’re having a bad day I want to know,

Communication babe, that’s the only way we can really grow!

 

I’m not the type that is about running games,

And I truly hope this aspect is something that you find the same,

Nicole, it is because of you that I now have peaceful nights,

And having nothing but love for you is something I can see insight.

 

A kind heart is approaching so be sure to accept the blessings of the heart
