We did steal their home, I doubt that ‘twas right
How doth Thou not see these sorrowful souls
Darkness hath killed this land, therefore their light
Terranullius? Thine sense burnt in coals
Thy help is hurting, how art thou so blind?
Alas! Hope of return, ever fleeting
Sympathetic words, but what of the mind?
We did not learn so we are repeating
The pain never ends, the breaks hath not come
We disrespect their beliefs, enslave them
thinking of then, a lonely mind turns numb
thoughts green-eyed, blinded by the shining gem
Evermore, sorry will be falsely said
Evermore, this absolute land runs red.

Day after day i try to pray,
i pray you can forgive me and take my pain away.
I love you so much i cant help but feel regret.
I miss you so much, that my world is caving in.
I wonder if you'd still say you love me?
Your my unborn baby, i always wonder how you
would look... Beautiful of course, a melody of love,
a sinful remedey.
I hope one day we can be together and then i can show,
that im a good mother.
I will see you in heaven, were the skies are blue
and the world is nice.
Your my Harmony, and for you i would trade my life.

When you waved to me, Amanda
I liked it in my blindness,
I thought there were many in Uganda
Far better or in your likeness
Now east, west I wander
Searching your likeness
But I have got none like you, Amanda
They all lack your liveliness.
When I saw your back fading away Amanda
With bags balancin’ in your hands
I felt the whole world in my hands
And I saw a thousand beauties on my heels
But in a thousand I have got none
I have got none like you, Amanda
And now I curse the road that took you
And now I curse each day I go through.
When I saw you piling your things, Amanda
I didn’t stop a while to recall the day
The day I told my folks of you Amanda
And they said it was the most blessed day
From then words became strong like a thunder
But you didn’t listen to what many say
And I swayed in a wind with you, Amanda
Until on the fateful day
Now alone in the world I wander
Like a cirrus on a clear day
But if only I can see your face, Amanda,
Before my judgment day,
I still love you Amanda
And will always do
I will always do Amanda
Until the judgment day.

Life Beyond You.
At the core of my heart, where the air is cool
And the pieces formed have slowly parted,
Lies the innocence used as your only tool
Since the day when your hunger started.
I remember the day our lives began,
Cocooned in a silver cloud,
But I knew I was right when I turned and ran,
Our dreams, burned in a shroud.
I tried to think what I did wrong
Or whether it was even me,
But your hate was as fierce as the day is long-
The day when you set me free.
A blow to the head would have been quite tough
Or a bullet through the chest,
But the way you killed me was just enough
To lay me down to rest.
How clever you were! I remember thinking
When you dismissed every word that they said,
But the evidence was clear, and your life was sinking,
Whilst I slept silent in an eternal bed.
But as I watch you now, with your head held high
Smothering your face in a grin,
I make my way forward with a smile and a sigh
And I know you cannot win.
For I know your greatest fear of all
Of which you cannot see.
Your life, my dear, is due to fall,
And waiting there is me.

All i could think about that day was,
Am i going to die?
I did something stupid,
I did something wrong,
I know i shouldn't of done it,
But i did it anyways.
I took 20 Tylenol PMs.
I had to sit.
I had to think.
I went to the neighbors.
I thought i was going to die.
They said to call 911,
But my mom said no,
Did you even care?
Did you want me to die?
I could have died.
And i almost did..
And all i could think about,
was,
Am i going to die?
Thats all i ever wanted right?
Was to die?
Yes.
But after you almost do die,
You change,
And realize how much you want to live.
I am on a mission.
That mission?
To find things to live for,
Then writing them down.
I have a past.
I have secrets.
I have things no one knows about.
But sometimes,
its too much for me to handle.
That day all i wanted to do was die,
But then i kept hoping i wouldn't.
I was ready to say goodbye.
I was ready to leave.
But then again,
I wanted to say hello,
I wanted to live.
And i am sorry,
For anyone i scared,
Anyone i worried.
I wish to do it again,
And i probably will,
But not anytime soon,
Or i hope not...

Everyone, so mad. Mad at me. Mad for not speaking but when I do, no one listens. No one
cares. What’s wrong with us? Why can’t we listen, why can’t we speak? Blaming me, for the
things I’ve done. Admitting to what I’ve done, they still blame me. “I’m sorry!” I yell.
I’m sorry for hurting you, for not believing, for lying. I’m sorry for it all, why won’t
you listen to me! I mean it all, I mean it. Why do you have to do this? Why do you have to
hurt me more than I’ve hurt you? Can’t you see the regret in my eyes, in my tears? Can’t
you hear it in my voice when I say “I’m sorry”? I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry. Won’t
someone believe me? What about you? Won’t you at least believe me? No? But why?
How many times must a man say he is sorry until the pain stops? How many times must he
shed tears for the regret and guilt he feels? Maybe one day society won’t judge you for
your past, but rather how you plan to live the future. Maybe one day we will all find
someone we truly love. Maybe one day the past will become changeable, then maybe we will
all get the second chance we all pray for. Maybe, just maybe one day my wishes will come true.

every year these streets get hotter and more cats burn
in and out of the beast belly taking turns
too many stories on lost potential
all they know is iced grill, steel,and street credentials
I not a hypocrite I'm well aware of what I did
walking that fine line between a man and a kid
I stayed drunk on the regular day in and day out
back when Private Stock use to make the 64 oz
I was clueless my ruthlessness getting me by
only plan for the day was get highs and survive
I was so young and restless
reminiscence on my first stick, first time I took some bodies necklace

I’m so sorry that I had to leave you there,
With those who obviously don’t care,
Sorry for letting you down,
And yet again losing my crown,
I’m sorry for what she will do,
And for what she’s done,
I’m already free but I have to let you be,
She is the puppeteer and you are the puppet,
The strings will one day be broken,
Let’s just hope that its sooner for you,
I’m sorry that I had to let you go,
But its for the best, one day you’ll know,
If I had stayed what more could I have done,
I just can’t stop the evil one,
I hate myself for leaving you to cope,
All by yourself with not a soul,
My insides ache, and my head cries,
I miss you so much,
But can’t see you cry,
I think about you every day,
And still hope and pray,
That you will one day be okay.

I consumed myself, day and night
In the reconstruction of her being,
‘Cos her beauty left out in the sun
And withers like flower;
I thought I could help by doing so;
Imagine how hard to swallow
Ones pride,
Just to provide her something,
Self-contentment, perhaps;
Alone, I stretched the day over
The inconvenience of fleeting time;
Cheerfully, I made impossible possible
Yet in return, I ended up
Wondering,
Why I slaved my body giving
Her, the niceties she don’t deserve?
Now she sings with the angels, whilst
I bleed in loneliness;
Oh Father, forgive me, if
I’ve fallen short......to thy expectation.

Ululation
the car keys lay before me,
never got your chance to shine.
What if God would not have taken you
to soar above us all.
Would we have been friends?
Or nothing at all.
I miss you big cousin.
I never got to meet you.
I try to imagin what you would have looked like,
but all I can see is the urn.
That day replays
with the song in my mind.
I never got to meet you
but still cried the day you left.
I knew that I would love you,
but instead I had to mourn.
In loving memory of BJ Davis.

THE DAY HAS COME, SHE CAN’T STOP CRYING!
HE REASSURES HER AGAIN HE WILL COME HOME!
A KISS MAYBE THE LAST, HE TURNS TO GO…HE MUST!!
HE CAN’T TURN BACK NOW,
THE SIGHT OF HER OUT THE WINDOW, ONE TEAR FALLS!
CAN LOVE PROTECT HIM AND BRING HIM HOME?
DESERT, GUNSHOTS RING OUT!
HEAT…HE LAYS THERE DYING,
HE SEES HER FACE, ONE TEAR FALLS!
A LETTER NEVER RECEIVED,
A MESSAGE FROM A FRIEND;
SHE REFUSES TO BELIEVE!
SHE CAN’T STOP CRYING!
A KISS, THE LAST…
HIS DAY HAS COME!
BEFORE BED SHE KNEELS AND SHE PRAYS…
“REASSURE HIM I WILL COME HOME!!”

The day that you and I locked eyes I fell for not you but your heart, mind body and
soul
I dreamed of a long lasting bond that could only be broken by the cause of death
You and I is what went through my mind from the start of every day to the end of
every night
But things became complicated when the feelings for you that i had where going
through someone elses mind
Because love was so close to binding us together for ever I acted with defense
and misplaced what you felt for me
I never ment to drive you so far away that it made seperation between us my
enemy
But i ended up causing me without you and you without me
But one day I will once again have you and you will have me

Once there was a strapping young man that gave a beautiful red rose to a
charming young woman. She loved him so much that she would have given her
every breath for him.
One day he came to her and said,"I don't love you anymore. I am so sorry but
this I say is true. I can no longer live this lie. I say this for it is not fair to you that I
stay. It will only prolong your pain ad I will not be responsible for that. You are a
young and beautiful woman and some day you will find someone that is worthy of
you and your love, but that one is not I. This you must understand." As he turned
and walked out the door the tears began to fall like ice dripping off a roof top. She
cried for days and finally the tears no longer came.
The day all her loved ones knew would come. She had finally got past the pain.
She was gone, never to feel the pain of his loss again for she had given her every
breath just as she vowed to do. When they found her deceased body, she was
holding a faded red rose from days gone by.

Hey boy,
How are You doing? I'm just fine.
When we broke, I started to cry.
Everyone said I would find someone better than you.
I figured they was just lying
But to tell you the truth
I meet a guy that is perfect
Started going with him the day we meet
Which was the day after we broke up
I figured you wouldn't care
But i just got done talking to you,
You sounded like you cared a whole lot
You're other girlfriend broke up with you
Which I though was funny
But because I know how easy you get hurt
I told you that I was sorry to hear that
But I was really laughing behind your back
Don't get mad
Cause your still my friend
But as the say what goes around comes around
I think I will miss you
But you lied to me
you treated me like a play toy
now how does it feel to be played like a fool in love
come on boy know you understand me perfectly
You hurt me and she hurt you
I’m sorry for you
I’m sorry for staying with you myself
