If

If I held you close would you mind?

If I said to love me a minute longer would you have time?

If I said to kiss me would i feel that you care?

If I looked at you for hours would you mind that I stared?

If forever is what i wanted would you promise to be true?

If I told you would you believe me If I said I love you?

If all these things I ask of  you, you tell me you can do?

Then theres one more question that I have for you .....Is your answer I do?

There Is Never Enough Time

There is never enough time to just hold you and look into your eyes
Just one more second is all i need but its never there

There is never enough time to tell you that i need you
Or time for the romance that i so badly want to share

There is never enough time to find out about your day
Because there is always way to much to do

There is never enough time for  your attention
Just to stop and say  i love you

There is never enough time to find out all your wants in life
Your dreams ambitions and were you want to be

There is never enough time for you to look toward the future
And if there was would you see me

Theres never enough time for you to truly be mine
Between work and kids and chores

There is never enough time for me to be satisfied
You always leave me wanting more

There will never be enough time to tell you all my wants in life
Or how i have the next three years planned

Theres never enough time for uss
And i dont think you'll ever understand

Kids

Day after day I ask my self why
Do women have more rights to children then guys
I am good father and she cheated on me
But thats not what the courts ever will see
Thousands and thousands I spend for the fight
Trying to get my kids and do what I feel is right
I am the one who they call with there sorrow
And there mom changes plans from today to tomorrow
She uses my kids as a bargaining chip
To milk money from me..dam she makes me sick
Like children to her are just pawns in her game
Tools to dangle and drive me insane
I gave her the house and the cars and the cash
I earned them all but to me its just trash
The one thing money will never buy is the love of a child
But in Florida the courts favor mothers and it drives me wild
I worked so hard to build a good life for them
To be more then a father to be there best friend
So many fathers give up and walk out
Well I never knew what that was all about
I thought to my self how could they just leave there kids
But in a divorce its not about love its about bids
Well how much money will it take to see my kids today
Two or three grand to get them on a holiday
Some women dont realize how bad this hurts the kids
When they are nothing to you except an item for bids

A Chance

AS I LOOK AT YOU FROM ACROSS THE ROOM 
MY HEART BEATS FAST AND I KNOW IM DOOMED

NO MATTER WHAT MY MIND SAYS IT HAS ALREADY LOST
MY HEART NOW LEADS NO MATTER WHAT THE COST

I OPEN MYSELF UP TO HERT AND PAIN
TO CARE SO FAST IS SURELY INSANE

BUT NO MATTER WHAT I HAVE TO PUT ON THE LINE
MY HEART MUST REMAIN OPEN ONE LAST TIME

SEE IT BETTER TO LOVE AND TAKE THE CHANCE
THEN TO BE CLOSED,ALONE,AND WITHOUT ROMANCE

I WAS BLIND TO THE GOOD THINGS IN LIFE
AN IMPRISONED FEELING OF DOING WHATS RIGHT

THINKING ONLY OF OTHERS AND NEVER OF ME
MADE ME LONELY AND BITTER AND HOPELESS INDEED

TO TAKE A CHANCE AND TRY TO CARE AGAIN
ITS SCARY AS HELL AND MIGHT HURT IN THE END

BUT IT IS BETTER TO TRY AND HAVE FUN ALONG THE WAY
AT THE RISK OF BEING HURT AT THE END OF THE DAY

YOU SEE LIFE IS WHAT HAPPENS AS YOUR MAKEING OTHER PLANS
SO REMEMBER THAT LOVE AND RISK GO HAND IN HAND.

Another Monday

Another monday here we go again
starting a work week knowing there will be no rest

Another monday with no time for friends
Beginning a week again and trying my best

Another monday eyes bright and ready to go
Trying hard to make the money to pay the bills

Another monday hands still cut and hurting so
Trying to make it threw a 16 hr day and taking pills

Another monday back to 16 hr days and no sleep
making that money the honest way

Another monday hoping to make as much as i did last week
going home so tired you cant see at the end of the day

Another monday that feels like going to jail
you can never be happy working this much

Another monday dehydrated and turning pail
working for the weekend to feel her touch

Another monday leaving loved ones behind
knowing when you get home they will be asleep

Another monday swet poring down making you blind
trying to sneak in the door without a peep

Another monday knowing theres 4 days left ahead
not knowing if you will last threw another day of work

Another monday thinking it must be better to be dead
waking up but eyes staying closed until the coffee perks

Another monday bills are higher food and gas cost more
leaving for work before any one else wakes up

Another monday grabbing your tools and walking out the door
is it just me that has to work this hard or does everyone have bad luck?

Wishing I Was With You

I SIT HERE AT WORK WISHING I WAS WITH YOU
INSTEAD OF BEING HERE WITH SO MUCH TO DO

YOUR LOVE FILLS ME WITH HAPPINESS 
YOUR SOFT TOUCH A SWEET CARESS

THE SMILE ON YOUR FACE THE GLEAM IN YOUR EYE
I AM SO GLAD THAT YOU ARE MINE

HOW I LONG TO HOLD YOU TIGHT
BUT INSTEAD I STAY AND WORK THREW THE NIGHT

EVERYTIME I CLOSE MY EYES I SEE YOU THERE
I KNOW IN MY HEART HOW MUCH YOU CARE

MY ONLY WISH IS TO ALWAYS BE WITH YOU
FOREVER AND ALWAYS I WILL BE TRUE

FOR NEVER WILL I HAVE A WONDERING EYE
AND NEVER WILL I HURT YOU OR MAKE YOU CRY

YOU ARE MY LOVER,MY WIFE,AND MY FRIEND
I WILL WORSHIP YOU UNTILL THE VERY END

ILL NEVER STOP TELLING YOU HOW MUCH I CARE
AND IF YOU NEED ME ILL ALWAYS BE THERE

YOUR LOVE KEEPS ME GOING IN THE DARKEST OF DAYS
AND I FEEL YOUR WARMTH IN SO MANY WAYS

FROM THE WAY THAT YOU HOLD ME TO THE WAY THAT YOU SMILE
YOU MAKE ME FEEL HAPPY LIKE IM A CHILD

WHEN IM HERE AND YOUR THERE AND I MISS YOU EVER SO
I THINK ABOUT HOW WHEN I GET HOME IM GONNA HOLD YOU AND NEVER 
LET YOU GO.

THIS POEM IS DEDICATED TO YOU AND IS COMPLETELY SINCERE
I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER DEANNA MY DEAR

Just Not Happy

I love you and need you by my side
You are the light in my darkest day

But I need to know this is more then a ride
And that you are here to stay

I have given my heart to you and now im exposed
I have layed it all on the line

You are like a beautiful rose
And you have thorns on your vine

A simple word from you can melt my heart
A simple look from you can fill my heart with joy

A word from you can tear me apart
You can make feel like im your toy

You tell your wants and I try to make them so
You tell me your needs and I make them come true

I tell you my feelings but deep down I know
That they never really matter to you.

All the time I ask how was your day 
And I really listen to you

And you never care what I have to say
Or why it is that I am blue

I work 3 jobs so you can be a stay at home mom
even though none of your kids are mine

You complain to me and I remain calm
because I know that we all have bad times

I give and give my all to you
And get nothing in return

I tell you I wanna talk to you
But you are not concerned

Why does my love make me blind
Why do I sacrifice so much 

When will you ever make time
When will I feel a loving touch

Heart Or Head?

I was lost in the world and thought that to be happy was to settle
I thought that true love or the one was just a matter of fiction

I had caged my heart in a box made of metal
And made my work more like an addiction

I thought when you had kids with someone you had to always be with them
Be responsible meet her needs and do the right thing

I thought it was forever even if my heart said it should end
I thought i had to honor her and give her the ring

The many times she put me down the times she hurt me inside and out
I still stayed and said its your job to put up with it because you have kids

I never thought i would ever find what true love was all about
Its as if love was on the auction block and i had all the low bids

But then the strangest thing happend to me when i had givin up hope
When i was upset and coming home from work i saw her walking by

I thought to myself do i have a chance and my mind replied and said nope
Then i thought i could keep going but she really caught my eye

So i said what the heck and turned my bike around too talk to her
I was so nervouse i forgot to take off my helmet

I tried to say something smooth but my mind was just a blur
My words came out shaky and i started to swet

I asked her for her number and if i could take her out to eat
She replied ever softly and granted my request

My heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest with every beet
Because somehow i knew she was not like the rest

She said yes but she never saw my face so why would she agree
I could have ben disfigured or had a third eye

So i asked her why she said yes and she said it was how you spoke to me
She said she figured i was a nice guy

So anyway we met again and it was love at first sight
The second that we saw eachother it was like an instant connection

So iguess i can say my heart was right
And it pulled me in the right direction

People always say to listen to your head and your life will be better 
Because listening to your heart will only get you pain

And to those people is why i write this letter
Because when i listend to my heart it wasnt the same

You see my head said to leave and i didnt have a chance
But my heart said to give it a go

And now i have true romance
And a love that makes me glow

Women Always Hurt You

Why did i fall in love with you
Why did I let you into my heart

I knew somehow i was going to get hurt
And you tore my life apart

You promised that you loved me
You said it would always last

But all you did was hurt me
Like everyone else in the past

I thought you were diffrent
I thought you were the one

But you could care less
About the things that you have done

You made me feel happy 
You made me feel like you care

You filled my heart with empty promises
And and then just left it bare

Tease Me

Look deep into my eyes seduce me with your stare.
come close and tease me if you dare

As if to almost have you and then you pull away.
like an unspoken promise for a later day.

You are so close now that you feel my heart beat
As i lay awake just holding you beneath the sheets

You feel me rigid and ready for you
But a little teasing is all you will do

Like dangling a meal in front of a starving beast
Who is tired of waiting and is ready for a feast

And you have teased me enough i cant take anymore
So i lean over and shut your door

I kiss you a little as if to tease you back
As i slide my fingers up your six pack

You moan and scream and whisper my name
Wow your enough to drive me insane

Your back arches as you grab the sheets
I see your toes curl as I glance at your feet

Your legs shake as your juices flow
like lava coming from a volcano

You lay back motionless as if you were dead 
You smile so big as your face turns red

You look at me and speak ever so slow
You tell me ( I love you, I don't want you to go)
