My Apology

I can't find the words to express what I feel  Anger? Confusion? 
Everyday something new pops into my head
Constantly searching and waiting, but am I the one to blame? 
I assumed you would always stay but I guess you got tired of me pushing you 
away 
I wonder how it would be if I said yes but actually I don't know if you really tried 
your best 
I wonder how it would be if you said no but I suppose we will never know 
The memories are enough to tell our story but maybe that is my own way of trying 
to ease the pain and please you because I am to blame 
I hope to see you and tell you all about that, then in return you would embrace me 
with the most powerful kiss and I now it would be straight bliss 
Just like the seasons, for that moment you were my only reason
 So thank you in advance for being the one to take that chance, which left me with 
the greatest experience.

One Ain'T Enough

I first saw him and thought there`s something about him I love, his smile, his 
lips, or his touch. He is something I want very much. I glanced again as I slowy 
struct using what I have to make him stuck. Then I noticed a second eye, a eye 
not prettier than mine, looking at my love. That eye was average height and dark 
with hips bigger than mine. She glanced at me and our eyes caught. For I knew 
she saw the same qualities in him that any would want. The way he grabs you 
and lose control, or the way he speaks without saying a word. Love is bomb and 
everything love does make me want him more. But what about that second eye? 
That eye that didn`t care but also took his stare. That eye that wants my love, but 
that eye was the only one I caught. I`m pretty sure more eyes were there but in 
this game there is only one. Love knows what he wants regardless of who 
flaunts what. Love is different in his own way which makes it so hard. Maybe one 
day love will be kind and wise enough to chose a queen that fits his throne. A 
queen that has everything love needs to keep him near but sometimes one ain`t 
enough.

"Watch and pray so you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing but the 
flesh is weak." MATT 26:41

The Dark Side

My life is nothing like a song or a fairy tale that never goes wrong. I try my hardest 
but my strength is growing weak. The weaker I am sometimes explains the hurt 
and anger I feel. I don't want to go on, this can't be life? The anger takes over my 
soul and body and as a result leaves my ora hot and bloody. Hot from all the 
anger and despair. Bloody from all the cuts and wounds of many. While my heart 
is cold and unwilling to let anyone enter I look for some healing from the right 
direction. Healing which can cleanse my soul of all this hate, the hate which I 
sometimes want forever. The uncontrollable emotions my be crazy and 
surprising to many but with every breathe I hear a answer. That peaceful answer 
which I need and yearn for but my mistakes I must learn from. A lesson that will 
lead me to a healthy and happy place. That place doesn't allow weakness, hate, 
or anger. My life's battles are not with those that try to hold me down for life's 
foolish treasures. To each his own but my life is my treasure.  

"Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of fools" 
Ecc. 7:9

Outside Vs. Inside

I CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN

WHILE TRYING TO MAINTAIN

AND STAY SANE

WELL THIS ISN'T FAME

BUT THE FEELING IS DEFINITELY THE SAME

SO WHO WIN THIS GAME.
