Crooklyn

Brooklyn, New York is my hometown,
There's always something going down.

So many different places, Religions, and races,
Walking so fast you'll only get a glimpse of their faces.

A huge melting pot located in the County of Kings,
Where the sirens of firetrucks, ambulances, and cop cars sing.

Good Old Brooklyn, where the great times never end,
There's a Pub or a Bar within a block to make a new friend.

Concrete filled city where you had better be fast paced,
Better keep up with the hustle and bustle or find yourself misplaced!

Prospect Park has the most peaceful views,
Where there are hills of grass to take a snooze.

Greenwood Cemetery is the place to be,
To rest your head eternally.

Have some syrup mixed with shaved ice,
Our Pizza is like Heaven in a slice!

Buying new clothes or getting those new kicks?
Brooklyn can accommodate your shopping fix!

Biggest population in all of New York City,
People are Smart mouthed, sarcastic, and witty!

Here in Brooklyn you will find the fun times never cease,
Don't forget while you're here to check out the 18th Ave Feast!

There's a Bodega on every block,
Where all the crackheads seem to flock.

Graffiti covered streets and walls,
Parks filled with courts for handballs.

Coney Island is the place to be,
To ride the Cyclone and smell the Sea.

Nathan's Hot Dogs are famous for a reason,
Best part is they're open every Season!

Crimes so old and frequent it's been called "Crooklyn",
At the end of the day, it's my home, I Love Brooklyn!

Broken

You’re gone, but I still feel you here,
I am now facing my worst fear.
So easy for you to turn and walk away,
While I just try to survive another day.
Years have passed, so have seasons,
I’m still dumbfounded, searching for reasons.
I swore our love was as strong as stone,
How could it be if you’re gone and I’m alone?
Numbness is all I seem to be able to feel,
So hard to distinguish what is false, what is real?
Is there hope for our love? Is it in Vain?
Senility is hard to fathom when you’re already insane.
Years and memories have since passed,
In this race of love, I will always be last.
Hearts can change, people can as well,
Life with you recently has been a living Hell.
Let me be who I am, not who you want me to be,
Just close your eyes and let your heart see.
I’ve given you everything you’ve taken your fill,
 Now I’m left drowning without an ounce of Will.
Was it all just deception and lies?
Why I am always the only one that cries?
Pain, Frustration, and Anger have come to pass,
You have become cruel, so damn crass.
Our love was amazing one of a kind,
You will always be part of my Heart, Soul, and Mind.
I’ve sacrificed so much for you and I,
This will be the final time I cry.
Love me for me, or don’t love me at all,
Your deceit and deception caused our fall.
Always remember, don’t ever say never,
I will be here for you always and forever.

Badges of Pain

Badges of pain adorn my arm,
No one can really keep me safe from harm.
I would rather be stabbed or shot,
Then deal with this pain I have got.
Wasted hours of listless thinking,
Feels like maybe I should be drinking.
I doubt even alcohol will numb this pain,
I'd rather die if it's all the same.
So numb on the outside, so empty within,
This is one battle I refuse to let depression win.
I will survive, I alwayshave and always do,
Question is will it be with or without you?
Trying to let go, but really holding on for dear life,
realizing more each day thos pain causes nothing, but strife.
If I have to move on, I will do what I must,
I want you to know in our Love I will always trust.

Soar

Life flashes before my eyes,
Most of the time I was seeing lies.
What the eyes see the heart disguises,
Every day can be full of surprises.
Open your eyes and see something new,
Open your heart to find what is true.
Live each day with out fear,
In the end it will all seem clear.
Don't be afraid if there will be a tomorrow,
Live each day without pain and sorrow.
Give it your all and try your best,
Exceed your limits and put yourself to the test.
Lifes mysteries will never be solved,
Thats why you must learn to evolve.
Try not to worry about the little things,
Instead take a deep breath and spread your wings.
Soar above whats considered right or wrong,
Be yourself and you will always be strong!

Sanity

I'm glad I knew you before you poisoned your veins,
It's time to accept you'll never be the same.

I must let go of my grasp on the past,
Not that the good times really did last.

Deceit filled with sweetness is your forte,
I'm done playing your fool for another day.

I'm done with this Bullshit and I'm looking ahead,
Pointing the other direction while smiling instead.

I was trying so hard to help you and I lost myself,
Gave everything I had, loving you more than life itself.

I've always held on deep down inside to that spark of hope,
That one day you'd be who you were before the dope.

You're so damaged, your mind, body, and soul.
You've lost yourself and lost all control.

Deep down inside I know that you once cared,
I also know that you're scarred and scared.
In my  heart I'll keep the good that you shared.

You once touched my mind and soul, you'll always be a part,
Deep inside the crevices of the darkest part of my heart.

Even though you will never comprehend what you mean to me,
I must let go, move on and be free for my own sanity.

Clay

Another sleepless night without you by my side,
These feeling I have, so easy to hide.
I walk around with a smile all the time,
My Love for you is like committing a crime.
My heart and head are imprisoned,
Whether asleep or awake, your envisioned.
Trying a little more each day to let go,
Will I be able to? I don't really know.
Lifeless within and cheery without,
No one knows what I am really about.
Giving my all getting nothing in return,
When the Hell will I ever learn?
Like molding a lifeless piece of clay,
I too will come back to life one day.
Looking for a Hero, but no one's ever there,
Even being a Wonder Woman I still need to know you care.
 Though there is a spark in my eye, a breeze through my hair,
I wake up realizing everyday how life isn't fair.
What I emanate is purely a mystery.
You will see how quickly I can go down in History!

C'Est La Vie

Deep within this battered broken Soul,
Is a haunting feeling taking it's toll.
Demons inside are slowly stirring,
Afraid of aggressive behavior occurring.
Moods quick to change like the Seasons, 
No real explanations or any reasons.
I will not let the darkness win, 
I wont allow myself to give in.
I may seem hopeless and shattered now,
Even in the end I kept my sacred vow.
The pieces will somehow fit again, 
I will triumph over this in the end.
My only mistake was to actually care, 
Now I'm left with this blank stare.
Life goes on and so will I, 
No more time to sit and cry.
So here's my advice, heed my warning,
Never trust a wolf in sheep's clothing!

Addicted

Why is so hard to just let go?
With all that’s gone on, all that I know.
My heart just wont let my head win,
Loving you has become a sadistic sin.
Things are falling apart not back into place,
Yet my mind changes every time I see your face.
I thought as time past feelings would mend,
Instead things seem to be coming to an end.
Our time spent together has frequently become less,
When we are together we cause each other nothing but stress.
My need for you has become a disease,
I’m an addict begging for your love on my knees.
Reaching for you praying you will be there,
My embrace returns empty, nothing but air.
The perception we have differs for Peace,
My love is stronger than ever to say the least.
Wilted and withered my heart slowly dies,
I’ll be alright once this agony subsides.

Bipolar

Do my eyes disguise the lies?
Or does reality open my eyes?
Not sure anymore what to think or feel,
Is it my imagination or is it all real?
Boughts of confusion cloud my head,
Are my thoughts and emotions wrongfully read?
Thinking too much can be such a curse,
Feeling alone only makes matters worse.
Too strong to give up, but too weak to fight,
Tossing and turning throughout the night.
Although I will go on the very next day,
Anyone or anything won't stand in my way.
Finding strength from only the Gods know where,
No matter how painful, I really don't care.
I am Woman, hear me Roar,
My will to go on is down to my core.
I will never give up, never give in,
Life may be a battle, but I'm here to win!
