A victim asked "why am I wronged. I am innocent, never played betrayer"
I exclaimed, "why you want to play the role of a feeble, destiny's caricature?"
He was silent by my words, I put my hands on his shoulder,
Hugged him, whispered: "In the game of Victor and Victim,
the looser is the marathon winner"
i'll be a dog
woof
you be a cat
meow
now my Spanish
gato i'll chase you
round the house
hoping to take a
bite
out
of
you
today
she took
her hand
and placed
it across her
face but
suddenly
she took
her hand
away
playing
peek
a boo
i
took
my hand
and placed
it over my
mouth
to keep
my happy
laughter
in but my
eyes were
giddily in
love
There was a History teacher that didn't
dress for their time. They'd walk in with a hint
dressed in fashion for the days
of that period and phase.
Students learned, always did win A's in print.

casting doubt
part aching
in this demo crazy
You turned up to paint my house today,
About half past eight,
And when I saw you standing there,
You nearly made me faint,
The cans and cloths, rolls and brush,
Were not enough to distract,
My eyes from your overalls and boots,
And your smile beneath your hat,
And you painted with slow and sexy swipes,
Drops dripping on the floor,
Your boots, your hat, your everything,
Just left me wanting more,
So I took you to my bare bedroom,
In the middle of the day,
And we painted a beautiful love portrait,
Our sexy trade foreplay.
What is love anymore?
An image?
A casting role for Romeo
And Juliet to play along- Almost dying for fantasy
Young love never lasts in the end anyway
It dies just like pig flies!
What happens when you know
The difference between right and wrong
Majority sings wrong
So you sing the same song
What happens when you
Value love but you're forced to
Value money
Now you're living like someone else
Because you think
if you were yourself
The only thing left of you
Would be a picture on the shelf
You just couldnt make it through
Holding on to your precious values
Now you're teaching your 5 year old
How to be a soldier
Because you have grown cold
As you have grown older
Taking away a future that could
Bring positive change
Because everyone in a lifetime
has a role to play
In a big crowd, if you're the one
To sit down
You're leaving room for someone
to take your place
So in everything you do
Be encouraged to be you
And be consistent
When you dont play your role
Then a piece of the story
Is missing
