God Made You For Me

Lookinh back on us and what we became many things come to me when i hear your 
name.
It's kind of strange and scary all at the same time but what we have is beyond what 
others can see with their naked eye.
You taught me how to smile when i was down you never let others see my frowns.
Everytime you kiss me my heart race because that's where I wanted you to be 
placed.
If love was like the clearest sea, I think I would die because you would be able to 
see right through me.
I smile at the thought of spending the rest of my life with you I honestly question 
myself what would I do if I were to ever lose you.
I look at the sky as tears filled my eyes as I fight myself so I would not cry.
What is love? I ask myself ever night before I go to sleep.
Is it the feeling that is shared between both you and me.
This may sound corny but you're my king and i would stay loyal to you as long as 
you continue loving me.
I don't know how long this is going to last or if it's true but all I know is that I really 
do love you.
I rub my stomach as a smile cross my face God has blessed us with a miracle that no 
one could ever take away.
With all we have been through in our past yet we stand strong us together we can't 
go wrong.
In my heart I truly believe, that God made you a diamond in the rough just for me.
He took you through trials and tribulatons to make you the man that you are today just 
know that there's no one that could ever take your place.
I want you yo smile when you feel the need to cry I want you to look to your right 
because I will be right by your side.
God took the time out to make you for me I just want you to see that things could 
only get bette if you believe.

Everything That Glitter Ain'T Gold

She's beatuiful smart and peite but her insides is one that many can't see.
Her hair shines at night and her face glows when tears fill her eyes.
What seem so perfect is not what many may want to seek.
Silly mens only go after what their eyes let them see.
Behind her beauty stands alot of pain.
Aids and this young lady not knowing her father's name.
Everything that glitters ain't gold many say but sometimes a person apperance can 
take that saying away.
She prawl for innocent victims and attack seeking for revenge.
Only this young lady knows her pain from within.
As years pass her face begins to change as her self esteem lowers each day.
As she lay in her death bed she take her last look at the sky.
She notice a rainbow that shine so bright then the rainbow began to lose its shine.
As she fight to stay free the young lady that once glitter and was so beautiful began 
to leave, as she ask herself was this what God wanted her fate to be.

Fallen Angel

She watched over me everyday and night she always knew what to say when tears 
filled my eyes.
She taught me how to believe, live, love myself, and be strong she taught me what 
a good heart will get you in the long run.
She held my hand even when I wasn’t afraid she told me I was beautiful everyday.
She accepted me for who I was and not what she wanted me: to be she told me the 
best motivation will come from within me.
 She told me this little secret that help me get through life and till this day I never 
ask her why.
She told me “baby you have to smile sometimes to hide your pain your only regret 
will be to look down on yourself because others do, love yourself before you love 
the next and stay away from negative people.”
She was always talking about angels and how they can come in different disguise I 
never question her or attempt to ask her why.
As I grew older I ask for an angel but I never knew that my whole life an angel lived 
with me and that’s when God called her to her final sleep.
“Father could I have my angel back?” I wept one night.
And he came to me in disguise.
I ask my grandmother one night “will Mommy ever come back to say goodbye?”
“She’s here by spirit not body baby and goodbye she will never say because she still 
lives on with us till this day.”
I could never understand why I couldn’t see my fallen angel before me.
“Sometimes you have to small baby to hide your pain” I could hear my great 
grandmother say so I smile like it was my last day.
Still yet I fail to believe that my fallen angel has left this world without saying 
goodbye to me.

Dreaming of You

Late at night when the world lies asleep the most beautiful star twinkles over me.
In its shadow lays a face and these soft pairs of brown eyes.
As the figure comes clear to me I slowly began to cry.
I extend my arms in hope of reaching you.
The further I reach I realize the further the star was taking you.
“Don’t leave me.” I loudly singed. “I need you just for today.”
I just couldn’t face the fact that the only man that ever loved me was taken away.
I fell on my knees and silently wept, than a gust, of wind awaken me.
I looked around to see that the star that once twinkled had left me.
There wasn’t a light, a face, or a soft pair of brown eyes.
It was just me alone in my room doing what I always do and that’s dreaming of you.

I Believe

I believe in love, happy endings and secondary life.
I believe no one leave this world without saying goodbye.
We hurt to learn and experience that one emotion love can posion you like a 
posinous potion.
Mothers give life and sometimes disown their child never will we know one pain 
behind their smiles.
I believe you're not save until you save one life the greatest gift is the one many 
seem to leave behind.
I believe no one is perfect and will never be life is more than what your naked eye 
let you see.
I believe our tears signal a battle we won.
And our pride grows as life goes on.
I believe that every child that struggle and lost their childhood would rise and their 
tears will eventually dry.
With the different forms of life God took his time to create the best gift is waking up 
to see the next day.
I believe in holding yourself and keeping faith.
The best lessons learned is the one's we don't call mistakes.
I believe in power, justice and strong will.
I believe in me and all that I can be.
I believe nothing in this world could ever take troll of me.
