Keri

There's this girl that I know. 
Our closeness seems to grow and grow. 
She is here for me and I am here for her. 
Before her my life was just a big blur.   
One of the few people in this world that I trust. 
To keep her as a friend for life is a must. 
I wish she could see how special she is to me and inside. 
If it wasn't for her then I would had died. 
They're all just jealous.  
Please don't let it get to you what people think. 
If they don't like you then they really need a shrink.   
She's so gorgeous inside and out. 
Of this I have no doubt. 
Don't know why she puts herself down. 
All it dose inside is make me frown. 
Everyone in this world should get a chance to see. 
As wonderful a girl is she. 
I try and think of a way to repay. 
All I can think to do is pray. 
Pray for her to make it through. 
Hope that god can make her life less blue. 
So much more than friends I now see her as my sis. 
I could of only hoped for a relationship as great as this. 
I wish I could take away all her pain and sorrow. 
To get her to look forward to tomorrow. 
I truly believe that she is my angel so loving and true. 
This girl named Keri, I can say is that I really do love you.

Without You

If I never kiss your lips again, I think I'd surely die. 
Whats the point in living, When all I can do is cry? 
If I never touch your face again. 
My world would split in two. 
What's the point in living , When I'm living without you? 
If I can never kiss your tears away again? 
What's the point in living if I can never make you feel better? 
When your cold and shivering and can't be your sweater? 
If I never hold you close again. 
If I never hold you near. 
What's the point in living, When I don't have my life here? 
Will I never be your one again? 
Will we never be together? 
What's the point in living, When the pain would last forever? 
Will I never look deep into your soul again? 
The one that I see when I look into your eyes. 
What's the point in living, When without yours mine just dies? 
Will I never hold you tight in my arms again? 
Where I feel so protected. 
What's the point of living, When I can't keep you safe and never feel neglected? 
Will I never hear those words again? 
The ones I need so much. 
What's the point in living, When its life without your touch? 
That's the point in living.  
Because of you, I love you so so much. 
I just can't live without you.

Exist

Who am I, what am I? 
 I'm just something that is here, but why? 
 Is there really something inside? 
 Something that goes up or goes down. 
 So far to imagine. 
 To go on forever never to end. 
 Scary thoughts but to just end scares worse. 
 Could it be, to just be to carry all this on? 
 My only purpose, is that me? 
 But when will this all end? 
 Whose to say. 
 Did you make it all up as your comfort? 
 To put your minds at ease.   
 Is there something out there to take me away? 
 Away to a wonderful place. 
 Will I never see my loved ones again? 
 Is it already designed or is it all fate? 
 I will go away, no turning back. 
 Will I be someone or something else? 
 Will I know, will I realize? 
 Will I just never exist?

I Love You

I love you more than life itself. 
You made me into who and what I am today. 
Life that you made and brought into. 
Eternally grateful through and through.  
All my heart is for you. 
The only one I know I can trust. 
Never giving up, when others have. 
No other can ever compare. 
Giving me the best you can, when time where tough. 
Within you I have the best no others have. 
The beautiful person you are within and out. 
Just shining through your eyes. 
Wishing I could give you the world. 
Wanting to make you proud. 
As I lie here writing, words can never describe. 
Without you here I'd be lost.   
My best friend to the end. 
I love you so much you will never know. 
Putting up with it all is more than I could ever ask. 
I give you my heart and soul. 
Forever to keep. 
The best person I've ever known. 
How'd I get so lucky? 
Thank you for bringing me into this all. 
For what you have done and gone through. 
I'm internally grateful. 
When I look at myself I see you. 
The love I hold is more than anyone else. 
Enjoying the good times we had and will have. 
Always enjoying the time we spent together. 
The best and the one I can always count on. 
Simply wonderful are you. 
All I can give you is I love you.

Missing Piece

It came suddenly to me. 
All a shock to me. 
Struck me inside with a fear, yet happiness. 
What to think more? 
Such a change in life. 
God, am I ready? 
Taking on such a colossal task. 
Joy fills my heart while others are scared. 
This love I feel like no other. 
God thank you for blessing me with this. 
Coming into this life always protecting and there. 
I will watch grow coming into thee.   
Always near observing it all. 
It takes me, waiting wanting to see. 
Into the future I look. 
Am I ready? 
I ask how, where, why? 
What will I do I ask. 
Will not run away. 
Just like it all came to me, it went all away. 
A lightning strike to the heart. 
Raped and taken away. 
God why? 
Who were you, what were you? 
Taken away, not given  a chance.   
What filled me, can never explain. 
Why? 
Was it for the best? 
I can not comprehend.   
Sorrow rushed in like no other. 
Some of my soul is released.   
Can't even look back. 
Tears now fall like rain. 
Slowly down the cheek. 
As I think back. 
A void that can never be filled. 
A place for you inside can never be taken. 
I still will love. 
Waiting to meet in the place above. 
I know you will be waiting. 
I'm coming soon. 
In time. 
I know. 
There's a missing piece in me. 
The missing piece of my heart.

Thank You

I thought I knew what love was. 
But never fully understood. 
At one point I never thought I would. 
I've been hurt, betrayed, and stabbed through the heart. 
Until one night I prayed to my lord. 
Take my pain and help me through. 
My prayers had been answered. 
God had sent me an angel. 
I love this girl with all my heart. 
A love I never felt before. 
Then I found myself asking what love is? 
Love?   
Is it my fear when shes around? 
Fear of failure, losing her, or hurting her? 
Maybe its the way she makes me feel. 
Feel like I can do anything, be anything. 
It may be the feeling I get in my stomach of happiness when I see her. 
How about not imagining her waking up next to me. 
What about the thought of never seeing beautiful smile that worms my heart. 
Or the way I cry at night because I know I'm the luckiest guy on earth. 
Could it be how frustrated I get when an I love you isn't enough? 
How about how terrified I get of the thought of loosing her? 
Then if that is love, than I am in it. 
I thank my lord for his angel. 
Thank You.

Key

So nervous, so anxious. 
Mouth dries, palms sweat, heart races. 
Look at you as you look back. 
Through your eyes I see into your soul. 
Hold you in my arms, we are one. 
So soft and delicate as I hold you I feel protected. 
So much pain and hurt I see through your eyes. 
All I want to do is take it all away. 
Taken to a whole new wonderful place. 
To give you your beautiful smile that worms me up. 
Like an angle who'd I protect with my life. 
You see me but as the rest. 
Don't be afraid, I'll be your guiding light. 
You can give me the key to your heart.                         
I will hold it near mine.   
To unlock and let me in where it wont be used and abused. 
I can see inside you, the beauty within.   
Take your key take my hand where its safe,to a whole new place.

Hate

I see hate in me and all around me.
Anger hate frustration lostness, loneliness, failure.
Don't know a way around it, it's like a wall I cant break down
So I must hide it well and hide it well I do.
No one can see me beaten down and broken and the tears that will fall.
They'll shed pity upon me thinking thy understand but it's not even close, not even half of it.
All these things that come my way one after the other like bullets I can't doge.
Such a grand path that I had for me those long years ago
Shattered like a rock through a window
Never to be picked up and put back together again.
So much shit is wrong, keeps coming and coming again.
If I pour out all this shit inside I become nothing less of a burden and worry to others.
I will not let such make me weak and bring me down.
Why Me? I always seem to ask.
God has made me different, special in some way and not like the rest.
There is one thing that does not have my hate.
My family and friends who are now my family.
They are all I have, my brothers and sisters.
My world is so confusing need to fight so hard but there's only so much one man can take.
I've wished a lot for love but its not going to be there.
Who could? I am nothing in my life, just patheticalness.
Nobody knows in the smallest amount what I've been through, have to go through.
The journey I've gone through to get to where and who I am today.
It all comes down to how I hate my life, call me a bitch, call me a pussy, or even a baby.
My mind and body failed me, and everything I do fails follow.
For all of this and everything, I hate.
Hate is all I have left.

Sleep

I lay here. 
Once again tonight.   
Minutes keep passing. 
I watch them tic by. 
Can't sleep again. 
I turn and try to close my eyes. 
All I do is think. 
Again and again. 
I grow more tired. 
Minute after minute. 
I can't stop thinking. 
Mind racing. 
Night after night.  
What time is it? 
It's been hours now. 
Just cant stop thinking. 
Constantly running through and through. 
The time keeps passing. 
Just want to go to bed. 
Don't even want to look at the clock. 
Afraid to see how much time has elapsed. 
Can't stop my thoughts.  
Still looking at the clock. 
The minutes fly by. 
I think I'm drifting off. 
Just another sleepless night. 
Night after night. 
Every night. 
Another night just like the rest. 
Wish you could see and get in my head. 
Keep yawning but seems to mean nothing. 
Eyes pop right open. 
Need to go to bed right now. 
I think I see the sun. 
Tossing and turning.
All I want is to sleep.

Lost

Sitting here all alone. 
So sick and tired of being lonely. 
Sick and tired of myself. 
Being myself. 
It's time for a change. 
Of this I do not disagree. 
I don't feel right. 
Different from the rest. 
Feeling left behind. 
Just so sick of the hurt and pain that I feel. 
All kept bottled up inside. 
Just so far deep down. 
No left for room. 
So much God damn anger screaming to come out. 
Try so hard to scream but nothing ever comes out. 
The tears still run. 
Out of nowhere they leak. 
Cooling down my face. 
Don't know what I'm doing.   
Don't know where to go. 
Starting to just not care anymore. 
Nothing no one not you or me. 
Just not anything. 
Do my best but seem to fail. 
There is a change coming. 
You will see. 
I will be no more. 
Need to find my map. 
Find my way. 
I'm just walking around. 
So very lost.
