Happy Mothers Day

From stubbed toes ,countless tears and many more to come
Being a Mom is never done
From baseball games,gymnastics,dances and proms
There is no full time job such as mom
From the punishments like no outside and no tv
To the love that was so unconditionally
From "Its painfull to be beautiful" & " Live and learn"
You taught so lovingly yet so firm
Making us proude to be who we are today
Keeping our mouths shut, if there is nothing nice to say
Working how ever long it took
Just to buy me that new pocket book
Getting the school clothes off of lay-away
Man that was the most magical day
It was enough for you, just to see us smile
Letting us stay home from school every once in a while
When we faught, you were the referee
Sending us both to our rooms so seriously
From being our cheif,servant, personal shoufer and maid
Doing it all without getting paid
Hosting parties on our behalf
To practicliy forcing us to get in the bath
Dressing us from head to toe
Not missing one talent show
Your a magnificent sculpter, molding and creating us
A love built on honesty,integrity,compassion and trust
Love you mom your the best!

21 Grams

Super Sensitive, is what they Label my kind
Those who feel, believe and truly understand the meaning of mankind
Nature, Earth, Heavens, and below
Are all viewed from just out side my window
My memories museum is packed to the max
Conveying Truths, Loves, Goods, Gods, and Angles that never relax
My emotion is electrical, shocking this Heart that so sadly Beats for you
Though it is just the 7 pounds among all one hundred and eighty
It is my 21 grams that molds this lady
I am so aware, I am so present, Perhaps a gift
Baring loads of blasphemy no one could dare lift
I walk with you, though it is more of a jog
Yours is an experience,Mine, more of a Job
I must endure,I must suffer,I will protect, shield, guide,make the path and lead the way
For you, for all of you to see someday
I was here kicking and screaming from the top of my silence
For all I had to give was my guidance
I will pay it forward, until my hearts content
I will love you not matter how defiant,greedy,hateful and belligerent
I will diffuse, I will conquer
I HIS name and for HER honor
Take my voice I will still scream
Take my sight and all it has seen
You can not stop me, I am enlightened
Therefore I will be the crazy, paranoid,different, strange
"Oh you know that Dawn"
Let them talk, let them say
I have been blessed with the curse of strength and knowledge
Most put to the side
For I have been cursed with the blessing of pure love and selflessness as my ride
I have no cult, no word to preach, no bull to sell
For my God's know of no religion, just a love spell
I am free
And it has not one thing to do with democracy!
I love me
Absolutely no man's ideology!
So stir your pot of righteousness, your worship of the unknown
Go to you building, kneel, and prey to that thrown
Just try to absorb that you are God too, we all are
For we are the seed, the result of a birthed star
Look inside, explore, inhabit, dwell
Love you first in this complicated hell
Your soul is heavenly bliss
Just sitting there waiting 
Very easily missed
Soon will start fading
Close your eyes, hear your breath, feel your presence
Be still, calm, acknowledge your essence

Colors

Because of my color, you dont see me

The sparkle in my eye, 
the shine of my hair

To you, it was never even there

Because of a stereotype, you'll never be free

My point of view
Where Im coming from

Just as I begin, to you, Im already done

Because of your blinders, you will never see

The openness of my mind
The freedom of my spirit

Unfortunetly, you haven't enough time

Because your so scared, you wont know happy

My beautiful voice
The pureness of my soul

Don't even bother giving yourself the choice

Because of fear, you have a disability

The light inside that glows
My color blindness

Go ahead, just keep your eyes closed

Because of lies, you love conditionally

The smile on my face
with my sun kissed cheeks

To you its a disgrace, because of a belief

Hate me for something I'v done or someone I have hurt
Hate me for who I am , not what I am
Hate for a real, passionate, undisputed, no questions asked reason
Then, just then 
If you can 
Forgive, not me, but yourself

My Sound

Is it all for nothing?
We may never know
Does it really make you stronger?
Or more painful and slow

Should we really believe?
Or is it  a waste of time?
These horrible things that happen
How evil can really shine

I thought good conquered bad
But,not these days
maybe its our fault
Our being is such a maze


Life is so scary
Death has got to be an ease
I fear everyday
And I'm sick of begging please

Stop the hunger, why all the hate?
Stop the greed
What exactly will it take?

Severe weather, economy and crime
When will we learn?
And is it just a matter of time?

The world has ended 5 times before, who is to say when
I choose to fight, not for me, but for the children

On the other hand,
Do we want them to know what we have built here 
Beacuse, personally I am ashamed
Greed, scandals, looks and material things are no longer tamed

Yes we are the land of the free
But, I truly feel it is costing me
My morals, my beliefs and what I hold deer
In 5, 10 years may no longer be here

Yes we are the land of opportunity
But is it really for us?
Or is it for those of conveinous

Those we have hurt and try to regain
Trust that was never there and will never retain

How can we make it right?
We are so backwards and upside down
This is with  with me day and night
This is my constant sound

We Will Remember

Today is your day, we wont forget 
No matter how much we hate to think of it
        Its your memorial, and we will always remember
It was the 11Th of September
        I hope you smile, while looking down on us prey
Because its all about you today
        The songs we will play for you
The moment of silence too
        The tears that will fall
As we stand 10 feet tall
        We know your listening, as we try to hear you
As your peaceful footsteps guide us through
        So we will appreciate the rest of your day 
Since you were all so carelessly taken away
        Yet, your all angles now
Floating in and out of the clouds
        

        So please, no matter what your religion or beliefs 
Close your eyes one time today and say a prayer for those in heaven 
        Then do it again, 
Just one more time for 9/11.

I Never Knew

I never Knew:
How much I would miss my old life
What it was to be so tired
To be so scared
So confused, worried
Aggravated, mad, concerened
2am, 4 am
Doing 14 things at once
Being very familiar with crazy
The feeling of  a constant roller coaster of emotion
Bottles,slobber,objects in your mouth
Gas, constipation,sitters,doctors,needles,crying
Binkes,car seats,rocking,throw up,diapers
Formula,back akes,stretch marks,medications,baths
Emergency rooms

I never knew:
A love like this before
A heart, so full of her
How every heart beat 
almost says gg gg gg gg
The porpose of life itself
Really understanding what is important
Her
She is
She is me
And I am her
She is my life, my daughter
Its so worth it
Its so priceless
Man, I just never knew
A love like this

Jessica

You have left me:
Happy, spiritual, able to fly
Invincible, numb, light as a feather
Ready for the world, gracious, someone new
Generous, shaded, needed, loved
Rejuvinated, bathed, reborn, cherished
Wanted, held, comforted, warm,great...
 
You have left me:
Broke, ugly, smelly,mean
A criminal, hated, feared
Unwanted, miserable, homeless
Childless, lifeless, in the cold
With nothing, Scared, heartless
Careless, meaningless, hurting
Shacking, sick, ill, undeniable pain...

How can 1 thing
1 single thing make you feel so good yet so bad

Heroin
Most of all
You have left me dead

Everyday People

Love, hate, honesty, trust
Real, fake people must
Longing, believe, unable to deal
Unfortunate feelings we feel
Devastated, upset, disbelief
Morning,lousy, mean,grief
Pretty, ugly, fat not yourself
Real honest feelings felt
Tired,awake, everyday someone new
Weird things that we go through
Anxious,hipper,dizzy, eager
Willing to follow, but usually a leader
Full of memories, soon to forget
Hating all the lies and regret
Wisdom,knowledge, faith
Patient, yet hate to wait
God sent,angle, yet can be evil
This is everyday people

Leave

Leave

By dquering

Am I looking to hard
To see whats in front of me
Life is so scarred
With too many penalties
Please give me enough strength to swim
Though I want drown
See the goddess within
Screaming so loud
I deserve better
In fact, the best
My thoughts in black and white
Never lay to rest
In my head, it is constant
War, battle,fight
I hate to think of it
With no resolution in sight
Maybe I deserve this
Maybe I did something wrong
This feeling I can't dismiss
Of being dragged along
Why am I here?
Better yet, why are you?
This nonsense,I can't steer
And no longer choose to
You choose your fate
as I choose mine
In this misery,I can no longer wait
You are all out of time
You will not bring me down
Not to your level
I stand on strong,loving,compassionate ground
I am God, and you, Devil

I Love It

The smell of you Cologne
The stories you tell
The stillness when were alone
How you know  so well

Run your fingers threw my hair
Go on to caress my skin
Comfort of knowing your there
It is just a great feeling

How you look at me, and adore
Staring in a daze
Never knew a love like this before
In countless ways

Waking up, to see you next to me
Your one of a kind
A since of security
Constantly on my mind

Tickeling my arm, till I fall asleep
Watching you drift away
Feeling your heart go beat
Till we awake to next day
