You left me without a word to say,
Just hurting me each and everyday;
Don’t get me wrong, you’re beautiful,
But sometimes, you can be rude;
Disrespecting everything I do,
When I do it all for you.

The right to vote for change,
And to improve a great nation,
By electing someone not too strange
With this may take a bit of patience.
Ooh, it feels so good…
To work for such an honest living,
Providing for your children and self;
As you punch hours well given
Making brighter tomorrow by all else.
It’s home again…
Good feelings I feel inside
Are real even through we don’t see them
This comfort of pride
And I call it freedom…

Humble like a Sunday afternoon,
Smiling as the hours bloom;
Sweetie, you are lovely indeed,
A creation of woman, God made complete.
Righteous once you have awaken,
Testimony with trouble you’ve undertaken…
To witness you pray yourself asleep
Is a blessing beyond any other feat…
It’s-
The Christian in you
That makes you so sexy,
Every time I am with you
I praise God for he’s blessed me.
The Christian in you.

I could get used to appetizers like this,
One taste of your lovely lips in a kiss:
Fun in the kitchen cooking together
As I take trips in my mind so much better.
Look at you,
You smile is so nice…
We can keep slaving over a hot stove,
Even after I get topless from heat overload;
I do not mind the strawberries by hand,
If you do not mind le creme au this man.
Look at me,
Melting into your eyes…
The food does not suffice,
After a look in your eyes;
With you I am still hungry
So come jump right on me.

So pure, pleasant, and kind,
To self as well as others,
In so many words… divine;
Virtue is this and more;
That is what I see in you… Virtue,
More than I had hope for.
My lady,
You are the virtuous one.

How would I make it through
Will this ever go away
And I know that it exists, it’s true
When it arrives for all time I cry
When that moment seems dark
And you notice that I want to give up,
The pain bounds me as I scream behind the ark
My tears changes into blood, it falls into the cup.
Oh God what’s happening
Tell me why this is happening oh
People judging me and I can’t make it through, no
My life is upside-down
There goes the dark clouds all around
10 seconds starts now
Depression hurts
I’m encountering death somehow
It alerts, Goodbye.

If I’d known from the beginning
That I was built for winning
Life would have been so different.
Like a dog with his toy
Pulling and tugging until destroyed
Fruitless ambition, so inefficient.
Never knowing your glance
Ever left me the chance
To prove the world was mine.
It was always known
That with You in control
Your work behind the scenes,Divine

Midnite
0
A little scragly when he was born,
But I reckon he will be just fine.
All legs and no balance,
It’ll all work out in time.
Big brown eyes that look with curiosity,
Hair as black as the darkest time of night.
Can put him on my shoulder and tote him here and there,
He follows me around everywhere, won’t let me out of sight.
Think I’ll call him midnite,
The name seems to suit him well.
And it won’t be long before this scraggly lil creature,
Gives a cowboy the ride from hell.
It’s in his blood, it flows through his veins,
His dad before him, and another before him, too.
Not one has lasted 8 on their backs,
Most hit the dirt after one or two.
But just like the riders, they travel town to town,
They will always be roaming, never to settle down
He’ll be there waitin on them, ole midnite, with eyes so brown….

I finally woke up and found
That our temporal states ran aground
They intermingle but not engage
They intersect but do not propagate.
We rely on each others
Mental nourishment it seems,
But future plans make demands
And your dream,is not my dream
