"A star was born"

After 27 years of walking this earth , on a September day a women gave birth ~ Out of the woumb came a little baby boy , she was happy to have another her heart filled with joy ~ Finally after 9 months the time has come , she has given life to a fragile little son ~ As he lays on her chest she feels the beating of his heart , she feels excitement ready for a new life to start ~ Like a pearl like a charm so precious so new , another soul on this earth and it's ready to bloom ~ Innocent and pure he grows to be unique , he has found his way with words very intelligent when he speaks ~ In this...

"To All The Mothers"

I can't explain in words how bad I feel , and I can't tell you that in time your broken heart will heal ~ I wish your reality wasn't the truth , I wish I could go back and keep them safe for all of you ~ Your children taken away to early from this place , God has his reasons and one day again you'll see their face ~ Just unanswered questions everybody asking why , it's okay for you to put your head down and cry ~ Wish I could wash away your pain and tell you it's okay , Wish i could build a stairway to heaven so you can see them again any day ~ I pray that in time your heart doesn't fill with...

"winter" Haiku

Summer now a memory
Snowflakes hit the ground
The absense of the cricket sound

"Fall"

Days are shorter , the nights become cool , Time to put on a hoody and close down the pools ~ All this summer beauty is a sign of death and decay , the trees will remain but the leaves will blow away ~ They no longer glimmer in the setting of the sun , this is one of the first signs that summer is done ~ The echoing wind and the branches sway , as it's picking up speed scaring the birds away ~ Shadows are growing , while less light is showing ~ Fall has arrived , but only for months it will thrive ~ Nature displays her last summer fling , before her long winter sleep swings ~ B.

"For The Gone"

Miss you herb , still smokin' herb , shit aint the same still pourin' liquor on the curb ~ Miss you Fene , still can't believe , it's been 7 years and may you still rest in peace ~ So many names on the list , of those that don't exist , they was all too real and you still truely missed ~ Still caught up in this grief , these eyes won't dry , and every night before I sleep I lay my head down and cry ~ But I no longer ask why cause you in a better place , so I look up at the sky with a smile on my face ~ Yeah it's been a rough road and we miss you Johnny Rhodes , and everyday i pray that I...

"But I Can't"

I wanna make you my bitch , but I can't .
I wanna be rich , but I can't .
I wanna drive the best cars , but I can't .
I wanna fly with the starts , but I can't .
I wanna be number one , but I can't .
I wanna be the world's best son . but I can't .
I wanna forever stay sober , but I can't .
I wanna just start this life over , but i can't .

"What Do They Know"

They wanna talk about me but what about you , Talking about other people to hide your problems is what you do ~ That's what you call true and that's a straight up joke , you got life fucked and this is a fact that i know ~ So tell me what's the point of all your bullshit , cause nobody really cares that you run them lips ~ And karma is a bitch it's gonna all come back , when you least expect it it's gonna bite you in your ass ~ And I hope it's when you're low so you can understand this , that life is too short to be up in someone else's biz ~ You need to get a grip and see what life's about ,...

"We Need More Security"

"We need more security" ~ Lately more often than not it's sad but true , this society we live in filled with horror what can we do ? From theaters to schools the shooting won't stop , I couldn't imagine a mothers pain when her kid drops ~ We're lacking security in every which way , we need metal detectors at the door of every public place ~ Instead a shooter gets through and more are dead , this lack of security contributes to more blood shed ~ Now the world once again left in shock , every school in America on the door should have locks ~ When is enough is enough it's out of...

"Numb"

What happened to the love that I use to have ? It's long gone and far away too out of reach to grab ~ Now it's been years and years and I'm still all alone , my feelings are numb and my heart became stone ~ These walls that I built will never come down , yeah love is talking but I don't hear a sound ~ I've been kicked around and treated like dirt , and gave it another chance but became more hurt ~ Never again will I be able to open up , the key is lost the door to my heart will remain shut ~ B.

"Your Strength"

Your pain will end your eyes will dry , your strength is as strong as steel you have inside ~ This strength you have will never go away , you carry it with you night and day ~ So when sadness comes out , and your mind's filled with doubt ? Whether you can get through a troubled thing , what is it that you will bring ? You'll bring out your strength you will stand tall , you will not stumble you will not fall ~ And no matter what you do or say , no one can ever take your strength away ~ Your strength will keep your head held high , and to your weaknesses you will soon say goodbye ~ B.

"My Sorrow"

Only these eyes can see the darkness in my soul , it's unexplainable no one will ever know ~ In this ocean of misery my sorrow is just a drop , and every night i pray tomorrow that it will stop ~ Hoping for the best and this depression will decrease , it only seems to get worse and the pain it won't sieze ~ I know God's with me but I've chosen the wrong path , and it's not only me that feels the aftermath of my wrath ~ I just want you all to know there is still hope behind these eyes , and for all the wrong I've done please accept when I appologize ~ B.

"Then To Now"

The Headlands has so much changed , you can walk in the store without seeing someone trying to bum change ~ When you pull in convenient you have a parking spot , instead of 100 kids flooding the parking lot ~ Not a single teen begging you to buy them beer , there's not even as close as many kids when I grew up around here ~ No longer is there 40's of laser sold of the shelf , when now you can walk in the store an buy a single shell ~ No more fighting everyday and boy we were hard , no more wide mouth phat boys in the woods no more 40 graveyards ~ No more late night party's and fire's at the...
