A scorned person
What is a scorned person? someone who has been broken in pieces by the devil who is seeking the opposite of love. A person that is hurting from a meaningful relationship. An individual that is bitter and hurt thinks he or she deserves love, respect, loyal, or power. Respect takes you along the way in life, but people don't understand. Being bitter doesn't come by night. It comes from being loyal to someone who doesn't deserve it. In this generation, it's going to be hard to find love, respect, and loyalty. Some people love who they want, respect those who don't deserve it. All the pain that...

BEHAVE OR BE ENSLAVED
Retribution or rehabilitation
What's the solution of the equation
My conclusion is that it's the former
Man's resolution for nonconformers
Employers ignore ya if you're a felon
Recidivism's high; back in jail again
It's a win, win for the former C.C.A.
And all the investors looking for pay
They say the days of slaves are history
Yet that's not true if you commit a felony
Was it all designed to be in a master's plan
The 2nd highest population of all the lands
What's the solution of the equation
My conclusion is that it's the former
Man's resolution for nonconformers
Employers ignore ya if you're a felon
Recidivism's high; back in jail again
It's a win, win for the former C.C.A.
And all the investors looking for pay
They say the days of slaves are history
Yet that's not true if you commit a felony
Was it all designed to be in a master's plan
The 2nd highest population of all the lands

Unconditional love
Unconditional love: I have unconditional love for you, no matter what you do or say to hurt my feelings I will always be there for you. Like God is always there for us even though we disappoint him all the time and he punishes us for it. No matter the pain you caused or what happen you will always still be in my heart. Baby, I love you, I know you don't understand it right now, because of your knowledge of what love is and what its characteristics are. You stay listening to what these artists are singing or rapping about. You don't see my heart, but God do I hope you understand that what...

Spice
She starts my day laying next to me
How can I possibly grumble
Because I know how much she cares for me
I'm not afraid to stumble
Morning coffee is sweet without sugar
Greeting the sun, or a cloud
Knowing she's willing to accept my quirks
Empowers me to be proud
When my brow gets dirty, and covered in sweat
Commitment gives me strength
Driving home with anticipation
To discuss our day at length
Passion, or rest, our bed is made
Just a pinch wouldn't register

OUR PAIN
What will I do with this broken heart?
By the claws of this world, I am torn apart.
My smile taken from me so long ago.
In its place left a grimacing sickening glow.
A frown that is etched upon my grace.
A sea of Tears fall, erode my face.
Nothing left now just empty space.
What possessed me, that I should die this way?
I reckon its my lot is all I can say.
So I focused on all the Pain that I feel.
Only thing to me that makes life seem real.
My throat is bound with chain and reel.

The struggle
Struggle: as I try to keep our relationship from falling apart, you searching for someone that has more than I do. You have the nerve to give me a lame excuse to leave me alone and not call me anymore.
Finding out she is a gold digger who was only there for the money and what I can do for her because that was the way she was taught. Making up things that I didn't consider trying to keep up with social media saying this is how it is, but do you understand the struggle.
The way you can tell when a person is down is when you struggle and they never turned their back...

Chaotic Mind
It's that time again
One month till college
Time to start packing
Making lists
Thinking of what I can't forget
One month of my summer job left
Have to push through
Make some money to save
Spend lots of time with my mom
Once I leave, she'll be alone
Still have summer courses to get through
Don't loose focus
Somehow make it another month without seeing my love
Try to get in as many video calls as possible
Think of getting my tortoise to the dorm
And our cat
Waiting on people to email me back
Trying to get my...

spider.
You’re crawling
along
the walls
of my skull,
and it’s
always
fucking there.
Like a nasty
spider
creature,
with knives
for limbs,
it hurts
like hell.
Can you make
your story
as tangible
as the web
of lies
it’s
based on?
Because in the light,
your bullshit
draws
no flies.
What a terrible
thing
to say.
What a
fucked up
thing
to say.

I don’t want to
feel
all alone
anymore
I don’t want to
feel
all alone,
no
no.
Things are getting
lighter,
the sun
is rising,
My eyes
are
shining,
across, across,
the pond.
You’re free
to stay here
until the rain
stops,
of course

I don’t want to

Obsidian Lamb
Spawn of the family's black sheep
Her heredity is what it will reap
A soul that needs to keep its faith
'Cause deep sleep creates a wraith
It can't erase the yesteryears
Of heartache and flowing tears
Arrears is what its kindred owes
Betrayal transforms those to foes
'Til it's ten toes up, it'll stay down
Down for its cause 'til underground
It sticks around and perseveres
Suffering inside but who really cares
Her heredity is what it will reap
A soul that needs to keep its faith
'Cause deep sleep creates a wraith
It can't erase the yesteryears
Of heartache and flowing tears
Arrears is what its kindred owes
Betrayal transforms those to foes
'Til it's ten toes up, it'll stay down
Down for its cause 'til underground
It sticks around and perseveres
Suffering inside but who really cares
