~ Back in the Day ~
A young English major from Wisconsin
In passionate romance was ensconced in
She fell hard for a poet
Alas, he did not know it
Said: ‘You look just like Lady Bird Johnson!’*

Bird,' she was the wife of President Lyndon
Baines Johnson (1960's). I wouldn't say she
was homely looking or anything, but ...
Look close you will see my evil thought's running though my mind I was a devious small boy, I dumped my brothers ant farm on his bed' I looked at my others brothers books he hid under his mattress, boy was that an eye opener, Come to think of it I still have that look lol
you are so cold
am very bold
am told you fill with hate
you need a love date
your eyes are or so still
its foots th e bill
if looks oould kill
you aware
hoe some people stare
its hard to bare
some do it at will
you 'll be a chill pill
IF LOOKS COULD KILL
i see the hate
you have it heaven sake
you got me book
with your look
take a chill pill
love is gods will
i 'be dead
IF LOOKS COULD KILL
somewhat a surprise
comfort now my weary eye's
make me forget time
eye's across the room
come into my hungry view
my eye's are feasting
eye's follow their prey
betting their chances what may
devour love one day
some people stare
you are aware
its hard to bear
at times its unkind
gives to fear
hard for a chill pill
IF LOOKS
COULD KILL
The way you caught me,
In bed with somebody,
We were locked in a
Embrace past romance
Clothes strewn all over
I think that I
Forgot to care
Or even talk,
So I just lied
Giving lies,
For the truth,
I deceived
Our love..
Broken
Hurt
Pure hatred
Venomous looks
Poisonous voices
Arsenic hearts
Just remember
You don't want to be
My enemy
I'm dangerous
Looks can kill
Stab in the back
Gun hidden
Don't look away
You might miss me
I'm your enemy
So just be aware
I'm hunting you
Witchcraft
Dungeons
I'll find you
Count on it because
It's April Fool's Day! ;-)
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
