If You Could Forgive Me
If you could forgive me
it would show we were meant to be
and neither thunder and lightning
could tear us a part
and that's the future i see
I've loved you from headache and pain
cause joy was never my gain
so if you could forgive me
i would love to call you arms home again
Though we bicker and argue
it show me how special i am to you
so if we could put this past us i know
that our love can pull though
So please can you find it in your heart to forgive me
as i plea down on one knee
cause i know our love is so strong
its like you complete me

Paradise
Fun in the sun
with our feet in the sand
enjoy life as time goes by
picturing life where no one cries
a place of piece
relaxing and a time
filled with eats
a place where
west and east meet
a place where bloods
and creeps sit down to eat
times worry me as i reminisce
we have lost to many brothers
for it to stay like this
dressing in black every week
makes the heart of a man weak
so as i gaze out into the ocean blue

In Search Of A Savior
to all my family and friends
near and beyond
i have tried to stay strong
and have survived the worst
but as the days are creeping in
i feel lost and alone
late night i stare out
at the vast emptiness
and realise i can nolonger
stay strong and as i break down
piece by piece i look for
help round the corners
i was told a hero would save us
so i call out for a savior
and when i can nolonger cry
and my bone can nolonger hold
toghter i ask it to be humain
so as i linger in darkness light
reach out from the shadows and
save me for i can nolong hold my own

To the Ladies
You smiled with joy
when i said i loved you
broke down in tears
when i said its over
felt crushed when i
walked out the door
and though it felt like
the end you stayed strong
and gave me another chance
when i came back
all because you believe
with out me you're nothing
To all of the women
who believe one guy is their
life line and would die without
him. remember for every quarter
there's a dollar, so to every man
there's a better one around
the corner, ...

Sweet Sweet Death
Life is a game...
i am starting to see to
many disappointing sides of it
but then the light appears
illuminating the emptiness
inside me...
As my eyes close up heading
to the light death is my best
option as happiness feel my life
and end this pain take me away
let me live and pain no more
to finish this useless struggle...
to end this useless fight...
i stand up to my fate leaving
behind me all these regrets no more
worries and no more love as i embrace death
as death receives my soul, i welcome the
fading light, allowing
death to end my existence

No More Words
words written down from my head
but the page is cleared
nothings written but
so much was told
maybe some times the
truth is what you can hold
a friend or a foe just some thing
to love oh hate
shit Tennessee Williams told me the
day i stop having pain is the day
am dead
Movado said the weak don't leave
at all
whiles Tupac told me there
a new day ahead just learn to wait

Peace At Mind
i have spent so many night
searching for someone to talk
and in my mind i found a friend
on that will always be there
through thick and thin
i thought i was alone on this road
and i was shown the light
only you hold the light in you life
can no one understand you
if you don't know who you are
so when i look in the mirror
the guy that stares me in the eye
and predicts my every movement
is not me but who i want to be
and though the road to redemption
is one taking solo the two of us
are on that track together
swaying away as we sing syllables goodnight

The New Me
closed momentum deadly thoughts
hyped anger submerged raged
all races through to the surface
as it blows and i implode
i lose everything
no longer do i hold
back no longer do i pain
its like a weight has been lifted
off me now i am a walk time bomb
don't cross me don't anger me
for this lid is off
and the rage is out
the dominate beast is awoken
so fear me now
as i see the evil in me
i myself back away
as the former me curls up in a ball
in a corner in fear
looking for a saver to come
heading to wards the light

A Poets Prayer
Dear father
you've entrusted me with this gift
and though my life may not be perfect
i promise to use it
you've giving me the ability to write
and for that i ask you guide my endeavors
I've seen many try and succeed
so i will try
may my lyrics influence the mind of the younger generation
and may i be immortalized not in flesh
but in mind and heart
not only in the heart of my family
but the heart of many long after am gone
may my poems be set as the floor bored
of a generation as i lay emotion
far from anything that i can show
into writing.
so your guidance is all i ask

Shalom
water cleanse my feet
as my father weeps
days turn to weeks
with a child left by a creek
answer may he one day seek
in the water my feet i dip
so water cleanse my feet
and in the mids of the beast
let my soul know that am not week
so if a tear runs down my cheek
as gold is splendid like an antique
may the bird song be silenced
so water please cleanse my feet
see me here, see me there
yes i try hear my cries
see me fall, see me rise
as you look in these eyes
the dead tell no lies
