The Perfect Girl

There’s a girl I see everyday.
And I want to be with her.
I see the guys she been with.
And they never see her the way I do
I’m tired of waiting for my chance.
She needs to lose the boys she with .
And get with me.
Her beautiful brown eyes.
Shine bright in the light.
Her smile would bright up the darkest day.
I want to show her.
How it feels to be loved.
And want to be the guy that.
Will love her no matter what.
Even if her make up is running down her face.
I want to be there and say she the most beautiful girl I’ve seen.
I can’t help feeling what I feel.
I want to be the guy to call her in three in the morning.
Just to say I love you.
I want to be the one to give her flowers just cuz it’s Monday.
She makes my whole world perfect even if its just for one second.
I bet your wondering who this girl is.
This girl is you.
all I ask for is one chance.
I want to be able to hold you in my arms till the bell rings.
Walk with you down the hallways.
And everybody stops and say, don’t they look cute together.
I want to be the guy that makes all your hom girls jealous.
You need to stop messing with these lil boys.
You need a man to guide you through your troubles 
A gangster love is wat I have to offer.
I want to show you how the good life lives.
To have no worries.
cuz I’ll be there to protect you.
So come on girl. Please be mine
You’re the perfect girl.
So I’ll ask you this
Will you be my girl?????

Every Day

Everyday I can’t wait to see your face.
I talk about you constantly
And my boys get on my case.
I count the seconds as they pass by
Till once again I can look in deep in your beautiful colored eyes.

Everyday I pray
That maybe some day.
I will be able to call you my baby.
Some people laugh.
But my family agrees on my behalf.

Everyday I hope that on that day I will be able to see your beautiful smile.
To see it I would walk a thousand mile.
You’re beautiful in so many ways.
But I think your feelings for me you’re unsure.

Everyday and every night I think about you constantly 
What I think is that you and I belong.
And the love I have to offer is lifelong.
Like the birds in the sky.
When it comes to you I become real shy.
You seem to have that affect on me.

Everyday would be wonderful.
If you choose to put me in your heart.

Lies

You told me a lot of things.                                         .
You said that you loved me.                                       
How could you play me like that?                             
I gave you my all.                                                      
You had my heart in the palm of your hand. 
And you decide to squeeze all the love out.
You said we’ll be together forever. 
I loved wit my whole soul. 
Whenever you were by my side.
My heart blasted off to nowhere. 
In my arms is where you should be.
I did everything I promised you.
Then I go and see you cheat.
What did I do to be played like this?
I was there where when you were down. 
I pulled back on your feet. 
I held you in my arms to stop the tears.
I made that frown disappear.
I was always there for you.
I guess you couldn’t do the same for me.
All you cared about was you.
You never cared about me.
I gave you all I could. 
All you wanted was the money and the gifts.
I wish I could go back and stop myself from falling in love.
You knew how much I cared.
But you still went and did me wrong.
I saw you with him. 
And you still denied him.
You even denied me in front of your friends.
What’s wrong with me I gave you my heart.
For you to take care of.
But you decided that it wasn’t important 
You said you didn’t want to hurt me but you kept doing it.
Over and over again.
Why do you lie?
I love you girl.
And I hate myself for loving you now.
I always loved.
But you always lied.
You lied about the dude I caught you with.
I hope someday you’ll see how it feels to be lied to from the love of your life.
Because your no longer going to lie to me.
I’m gone for good this time
I’m tired of your lies.
GOODBYE!!!

When You

when you are going through tough times in your life. 
why do you keep eyeing that knife.
when you your heart is numb like bombers come
why dont you send the troops to fight back.
when you heart is down, and it cant go any further.
why do you look like death is knocking.
when you lose your love.
why keep back everything
when you are lying with out hope
why give up.
when your heart is near death.
why accept it.
when you cant trust.
you block out everyone who might be your love.
when you cant love. 
why is your heart full of hatred.
im waiting for you.
i know u can pull through.
when you see me 
why do i have to take a knee.
when you make choices
its up to you if they're going to bring you down or back up.
