Poet Introduction
I am a poet . Poetry is my passion . My pain and my love bleeds through that ink onto the paper . I breathe in experience and breathe out poetry .
"I Do Not Belong"
Sometimes I wish I could just go ,
Disappear like when the warmth hits the snow ~
Feel I don't belong on this soil ,
With others I don't mix like water and oil ~
Hard to believe it's this long I lasted ,
I'm either ahead of my time or I am passed it ~
No one understands me in this time that's present ,
Nobody cares only themselves wanna feel pleasant ~
Is this wrong or are these the right actions ?
If I stopped caring I wonder what would happen ~
Seems everybodys mind has derailed off track ,
I feel outta place cause I reached my destination and...

"M.P.D."
The never ending relm of mess ,
Once again the M.P.D. Has got me stressed ~
These devils never leaving i can't beat 'em ,
After doing months they still want my freedom ~
Doing good and everything is right ,
Still don't matter cause troubles in sight ~
Always the hard working guy ,
Long as you're in my way i'll never fly ~
I did move on and did my time ,
Passed all my drug tests paid off my fines ~
Didnt finish my drug assesment from 2 years ago ,
I work and pay my bills you should let that shit go ~
But no always wanna bring a man down ,...

"Hurts To See"
It hurts to see what you became ,
since we split you ain't been the same ~
Drinking everyday and on the net you're bragging ,
in your facebook status' and in photos you're tagging ~
Changing for the worse and letting everyone know ,
You are spiraling way out of control ~
It hurts to see that you don't even care ,
your feelings are gone as if been stripped bare ~
You're only causing more pain for later down the road ,
and you'll end up crying it's too heavy of a load ~
You don't see the hurt you cause but I do ,
you need to stop you keep missing...

"Over"
Every day i wake in pain
I miss you baby girl ,
Can't get your name off the brain
And i'm lonely in this world ~
How did it go so wrong ,
When we started off so strong ?
Are feelings were the same
But now the love is so gone ~
Now my heart is pumping hurt
And days are hard they're getting worse ,
These thoughts i can't desperse
Wish i could go back in reverse ~
To let you know it's real
This pain i feel is true ,
These wounds they will not heal
Cause i'm still not over you ~
Everything i did wrong
Girl i so regret , ...

" I Dream"
I dream of walks with you under sunny skies ,
I dream I never see tears coming from those eyes ~
I dream to keep you happy forever and always ,
I dream that together we will stay ~
I dream that when I awake it's next to you ,
I dream of lying in bed just us two ~
I dream of us watching the stars at night ,
I dream of us making love under the moonlight ~
I dream that I love you for all the right reasons ,
I dream to hold you tight in the coldest season ~
I dream that I never see you down ,
I dream that I never see you frown ~
I dream whatever...

"Can't let go"
These feelings that I got I can't let go ,
I'm crying inside and you just don't know ~
These feelings that I got I can't let go ,
I'm dying inside and nobody knows ~
So these days come and go
but this love for you stays ,
I just want you to come home
i wanna see that pretty face ~
Wanna grab you girl and hold you tight
kiss your head turn off the light ,
make some loving with no fight
touching and hugging all through the night ~
Rub that back and keep you close
I'll protect you babe from head to toe ,
whatever you want I won't say...

"Laugh now , cry later"
I've read you like an open book ,
Fed my soul with your lies
And in my eyes you still can't look ~
It's such a shame ,
Why did you play the dirty game ?
The arrow missed by cupid ,
Mistaking my kindness for stupid ~
Was a fool to even waste my time ,
Should have read the signs ~
Observed every second didn't miss a blink ,
Sweetheart i'm smarter than you think ~
What runs through your head
When you lay down at night ?
The path you tread
Is fucked up and i'm right ~
Can't open up but you open up your legs ,
all that comes...

"The BDOT"
Mind better left open ,
Some things better left unspoken ~
Wisely spend your token ,
It's easy to be broken ~
Hard to be happy ,
But see a smile when you look at me ~
Try to cure this ache in my chest ,
It happens to the best ~
My troubles i still have ties ,
I'm tired in my eyes ~
Never know what lies ahead ,
But i made it and i'll lie in my bed ~
Flooded with discomfort ,
Too many times it took me under ~
Pray for better days ,
I see them coming my way ~
But it wasn't for me i prayed ,
It was for you okay ~

"Spring"
The sun is out the snow is gone ,
the birds are back the days become long ~
The flowers bloom oh the smell of spring ,
yes I love what these months will bring ~
There's rainy days but the nights are warm ,
and nature is ready to take it's form ~
The trees will bud the grass will grow ,
and in the wind the cotton will blow ~
Everyone should love this time of year ,
for now depression is gone and summer is near ~

"Road to redemption"
You aint cried the tears I've cried ,
and nobody even cares to know why ~
Everything I've had I lost ,
all my run ins with the law I paid the cost ~
You can have it all but lose it in minutes ,
it's taking me years to get it back but I'll get it ~
This is my final road to redemption ,
close the windows to the past so I don't have to mention ~
When I get it all back I swear I'll never lose it ,
I will no longer take life for granted or will I abuse it ~
I see things clearer cause of my mistakes ,
living life fast but it's time I hit the breaks ~...

"Sickness"
Another step
Another day
Another breath ,
Getting older
It's getting colder
What's left ?
Some forget
What's not theirs
They don't care ,
Fending for themselves
They don't share
It's not fair ~
Full of disrespect
Copy cats
Identity theft ,
Going against the grain
Never taking blame
Got the wrong concept ~
Witnessing abuse
Wrong path to choose
Creates a short fuse ,
Never looking back
No sympathy
Empathy is what you lack ~
Truly lost
But won't admit
God's the boss ,

"The Rise"
I'll rise above shame,
Accept mistakes and take blame ~
Dug up my fears and dug up my pain,
Even though it's dark I will shine through the rain ~
Disappointment becomes the past ,
The ones that claim "TRUE" don't last ~
Nothing left here to kill my spirit ,
I will walk this earth and no longer fear it ~
All the hurts been done I've unpacked my bags ,
All the garbage I hoarded I threw in the trash ~
Heart still beating and it does beat faith ,
I seen the best of 'em fall and looked death in the face ~
But I'm still breathing I managed...
