All About You

I wasn’t goanna write this but im compelled to do so, I felt you should hear it
This is what I do, and I love what I do, my passion to write and give hope
It’s like giving breathe to something dying    
It’s my job to enlighten
Help bandage or fix wounds
Help Dust and clear-up dirty laundry
Introduce you to a world of forgiveness
Forgiveness to move on searching for a better you
Don’t be fearful to the words I use,
There isn’t nothing better than you start forgiving you
No apologies should be given for who you are
When GOD made you, you became special 
Special to those who appreciate you
So those who don’t, it’s their fault to never knowing you
The characteristics of speaking is hearing
To possibly trust but sometimes love
Love is all in the heart but given to a selected carrier
So be weary when giving
 In theory magnetism pulls the best attraction
It’s time for you to exert force to the right attraction

A Poem To a Caring Heart

My personality has grown from the wickedness
 To growing in all aspects, to venture the importance of happiness
Happiness comes but fades, but the connection of hope, is bigger than the dream of simplifying trust, what is it mean to foresee things that have not come to pass without in-trusting in faith?
Keeping things short but simple, knowing nothing but the possibilities, Is the way to the heart, what is dreaming without thinking or talking about all the possibilities?
The race of words is always going through my head, it never comes to an end, the competition and opponents normally change but they don’t have to.
The fact that I’m still standing, shows my drive to carry all my love and connect with someone who knows me spiritually and see the “window” to my soul.    
Im cold at moments but it is only to hide the giving person within; it’s something about having that person who you can think or fantasize about having a world of fun and no consequences but get stimulated off each other’s company
These are the possibilities, I think of but just realized if with the right person.
It’s a dream or fantasy the body and mind the soul feels when it forms a completion, almost like they felt this way with each other in past lives.

Its Time To Play

Its time to play
Its time to play
Play through the pit
The pit of the drum
Drum fire
Fire spit through 
The flame
Terror from the eyes
All I can say is cope
Cope with  a poke
Poked like Facebook in
A map, mapped out on destiny
Destiny Relive
Reilve from my child
Its time to play
Its time to play
Im stopping and starting
Trying to begin in this filed on men and mice
Who will stand up and who will fall?
The brave always struggle
Struggle but still rise
Im all about overcome
Overcoming  jealousness  
Its time to play……

Legend

I spread, what I say, 
Forget what you heard
Im no nerd, I aint new to this
I flex on those who cant see
See, me as a legend, a legend to be
Im meant to be heard, not freed 
My creativity has been locked up
The release date is soon
I spread, what I say, but not today
What, I say, you could be doomed into next year
Warped into last year
Hold your full fronts,
Don’t smile, this aint a dream,
It’s a parting, words for you, with words like adio`s 
Double your package, no dope, no sale
My pockets been broke for a while,
But not now, its time to take my place
A place in the round of the living
I spread, what I say,  it aint hard
I spread, what I say, it aint hard
The legend is here
The legend of the great, words untold.

Why Hold My Peace

Why Hold my Peace

You want me to hold my peace
But exactly what does that mean?
When you walk around like you a king, crushing someone else’s dreams
Do I look like a servant of yours or someone you can run over?
Think twice, when you partake with a rebel like me
I don’t take threats likely, so be careful when you address yours truly 
I too have a personality and voice that cuts like a knife
But I choose my words wisely, before I plan any attack
My profession has lead me to many roads
Roads that function or some that was out of my control
I Bridge in the gaps with deceptive words meant to attack my soul
Criticize who I am and what makes me stand out above all who have tried to sabotage my goals
But, Ha Ha, you want me to hold my peace
I hold my peace for many things, but in the existence of adversity, never!
I consider myself to be clever and clairvoyant
I understand how the world works and my role in it
Holding my peace has never made me grow
Why shorten or dampen down my abilities
For the sake of prosperity??

I Relax My Mind

I relax my mind
I relax my mind in the visions of daylight
The Daylight can’t take away the magic of the night
The night is filled with horrors even I can’t explain 
Trapped in the darkness of magic moonlight
Time will tell the story of a memory, the memory 
Can be mine and yours
I relax my mind
Faces and smiles haven’t been here in a while
A while that pain entered my mind and heart
My heart is done, done with the love in a Fantasy 
Stars are in my heart and adventures are there
There to take me to a better understanding what love is to be
Being relaxed in my mind is good, I guess
I know now that guessing is not the way to search the heart for love
Love is not a game it is generosity
I relax my mind, to see where that generosity leads

Just Mad

Im tight, Im always right
I don’t care what you think
Did I stutter or Blink
I laugh at you wannabe’s
My style is un heard of, you can’t compete
Ask questions you get swept off to retreat
A wolf gonna howl, a wolf aint gonna forget sh**
Unless you give in, to the fear
All my words come together invasive 
The tongue is deadly with a hell of a speech
You aint grown yet, you kinda young
That won’t stop my Rapha
Watch your head, Im ready to hunt
The month is still early, you got time to run
I laugh at you, cause you a wannabe
Trying  to imitate me

Tired

I'm so tired, Tired of
being taken for granted

I'm so tired of the acid
reflux that burns the back
of my throat.

I cry inside, because no
one knows the love I have
inside of me.

I hurt because I give people
too much power over me.

Its hard for me to mislead
someone or deceive them,

I feel someone can come 
and do the same to me.

Thats why I stay strong in
what I beleive in and I know,

Things will eventually work out.

From My Lips To Santa Ears

From my lips to Santa, Ive been naughty
Naughty by exploring the touch of erotic compulsions
Despite my naughtiness, I’ve been good, all year
To possibly be visited by this girl that haunts me everyday
Santa if you only knew what her love does to me,
You would become naughty too
Forgetting your innocence if you saw her,
And the magical things she can do
You would began to understand why, it has been hard,
For me to be good all year
I ask you to whisper in her ear, to
Have her show up at my door step,
On Christmas Day
Wearing sweet negligee
This is all I want for Christmas  
From my lips to Santa, Ive been naughty
But, I need your help Santa,
So i can be showered by her love on this Holiday
Santa can you help me, 
Whisper in her ear,
 So she would be waiting for me on my door step,
On Christmas Day?

Got

What I got is what you need
What I got is special indeed
What I got you will fiend
There’s no need to wean
Stay true in what you believe
Your heart is forbidden 
Kicked with a spice of resentment 
Only sparks of joy makes you smile
A group of words could not describe you better
Knowing what is real is still determined
Determined by adding and subtracting your inventory 
Your space and inventory is crowed with takeout Lunch
Why take out Lunch when you can dine in with candles and red wine?
