"Playing For Keeps"
What the bleep is up with all the creeps
And cheats
It's time to release the beast off the leash
And have a feast
Sinking my teeth
Into each, until they cease
Left out to rot, not buried beneath
The ground six feet deep
In any minute it'll reek
You're a piece
And...

For Keeps
She wanted to break up
He wanted to play for keeps
Had she missed the red flags
That could cause her grief
Some people just can't let go
They may even get violent
when someone breaks up with them
She will have...

Love For KeepsMerging of hearts, solemnized as one
Cruising darts, piloted by the Almighty One
Scents of Chrysanthemum, crowned in leis
Glade of momentum, sweeping for deis
As you renew your vows
There are no buts or hows
Cling to each other without noise
Sing for each other with poise
As years go by, love...

Married For KeepsOur marriage is a promise from heaven above,
That we are bind with each other forever to love,
A promise not to give up when trials arrived,
A commitment into a journey,our goal to make it last.
For now we are both parents the pressure arise,
But the joy...

For KeepsGood morning, morning, it's a brand new day
The sun is shining, I'm on my way
To writing brand new poetry
Just for you, no one else can see
Or know what's in my heart but you
It's open, you can see right through
And test the waters with your own
Mine's...

Into different shapes each day
As sure as heaven
Cries a torrent of tears in spring
As sure as water seeks

Alliteration
Playing For KeepsFalling for a guy's pain
wanting to play the game
thoughts passing day by day
Just one touch!
Just one scream!
i play for pleasure
I play for keeps.
hearing songs of a man like you
Falling so tell me you do!
want to play for keeps too.
Not one day!
Not one week
Months...

Dramatic Monologue
Souls For KeepsCheap self now
Afford self-doing
Vulgar to so after-
Mass-ive tumor
That is eating,
And beating this needing
Eyes cries for the lies
Stained in youth drains
These young veins
Falsehood tyrants rule
Over peons passed
Loveliness lives like loneliness...

Killing Is For KeepsThey turn me on and let me go,
the floor is soaked in blood.
Remnants of what once was life,
is bathed inside the flood.
Wickedness is overcome,
two wrongs here do make right.
Has the death of one within the day.
keeps alive a house by night.
This is what I'm to...

Play For KeepsScents in air
Stiff and stale
Eyes of devil
Skin so pale
Moves so swift
Can't catch me
Turn the corner
Then I see
Close my eyes
Horror to feel
Knowing it's there
Evil so real
Chills on bones
Wind stands still
Voice of terror...

This One Is For KeepsHer presence fills the room with an aroma
Ease is within her body language
There is no words to describe how the feeling is
Her beautiful soul captures my inner thoughts
The man above must have taken his time for this one
Intelligence was born with her
Love is hidden in...

For Keepswhat you have given me
something I can hold on to
a dream I can keep
it belonged to you
for a short while
now moving away
as life gets in the way
a love I can look back on
savoring in my heart
what could have been...

In It For KeepsI want a man that will commit
And knows how to show it
He's not afraid of giving love
It's what his heart should be made of
Loving one another can be so satisfying
If done so without any lying
I have to trust and believe
For love is a...

AngelicWhere is the love you promised us always? Eternal love is
cast out of heaven for the angelic it seems—Quote by poet
It burns deeply knowing our ways of love aren’t angelic
Love’s awe emerges then torn apart as old as a Christian relic
It seems true that...
