REGRETTING FITS--


Twas the jist of it;
My mind not into it;
Gotta be kidding me;
Must be me reality;
I may just regret this;

I can't imagine what it feels like 
But I got the jist when I saw your pain
You were so excited to start a family
A family that never came 
Blood, tears, heartbreak, sadness
Is this really God's plan for me? 
I just wanted happiness 
But I lost the thing most dear to me...

To stay the course of penned projects
Some long, some short, on sheets of white
Solitude, my thoughts and I abide
But this course we love, sometimes fade
I need jist of that potent thing
The very thing I miss, each time
My muse, my thoughts and me resist
Staying course with certain projects.

I see you struggle
And there is no bliss
Your high, your low
Can we just kiss?

I see you toggle
And there is no glitz
Your mad, your sad
Please stop these fits.

I see you vogel
And there is no remiss
Your here, your there
I miss your kiss.

I see you struggle
In this abyss
Please let me love you 
And take care of this jist.

Fellons with fetters, who apply methods hard.'
Who twist and will twitter, stretch an inch to
A yard.' As packs they are waiting the slightest
Small slip, alls grist to the torture in the rumour
Mills jist.' No soul will stay unturned, no corpse
Rests in peace' they're only true target.? next who
Will they fleece.?...

Scam

Been caught in a scam
Should I have just ran
Try to be good
For God as we should
Always to get bit
Just take another hit
Never knowing why
But continue to try
To live with the strife
Just wanted a wife
Will we ever just fit in the groove
Or should we just move
On the Golden list
I do not jist
Or just change my name
To fit and stay in the game
Never, never win
So I will just give in...

Oh dear friend of mine
I need to tell you about me and my wine
It always goes down so smooth
All of my cares it does soothe

Then when I go home 
To my frig I do roam
Inside another bottle of wine does set
So needless to say another glass I get

Then my eyes starch to blurling
Ants my worchs starch to slurching
Jist wunch I tellch waach agret friegs zha ares
Angs jist menbers thizisg way i donst goes ta bars...

I have done well with words for so many years
Perhaps a pepper of deadly
You never came to me. . . and you did
So let’s just you and me
You and me. . . me and me you
Here’s the jist. . . a me and me you
Doing what we both have done
Ain’t no worry for words now that we’ve gone
Far 
I miss you on certain days
And I collect you on other. . . somes
While you never cared for everyone
I batted my lashes crazy over you...

I kissed him in the sunlight 
On the old brick wall 
while a cold wind blew in
Traces of the coming fall
As he breathed out and smiled at me
I turned and blushed shyly
This is our secret romance 
Our hidden tryst
Full of tales and half truths
White lies you get the jist
But our love is strong enough
It doesn't matter what they say
At least that's what we hope and pray
He smiled as the twinkle 
Slowly left his eyes
He held my hand gently 
Theses secrets will be our demise...
