Few people in the world can make me smile Even if she hasn't' been around for a while She can always bring me back to the time That we had that little fling It was such a little thing But it reminds me that I can be loved Especially when no one shows it I'll Ask 21 questions But I only want answers to the important ones

I like to drink wine. This was discovered only a couple of weeks ago. Wine gives me the drive to do what I know I need to do. Whether it be for myself, or for those around me. In the case of tonight, it's for myself. I've had two and a half glasses of a cheap Cabernet but the way it makes me feel give me the motivation to see another day I just want to sleep, wake up, and do what it takes to make my life easier. And if that means waking up at 7am to work a job that people look down on then **** it. I'm in. *Let's go, **** it* This wine has taught me that even though I may feel as if I'm struggling in the current moment; I'm just going to sleep and wake up to see a new day. A day given to me by a God that knows my ins and outs. My ups and downs. My weaknesses and my strong points. I'm on this planet for a reason unbeknownst to me Maybe there is no reason. But I know that I'm going to enjoy it to the fullest. And keep my eye on The Prize That Prize being a woman that loves me. A woman that loves everything about me. The way I love so many women at this current state in my life.

Confidence
We're all connected one way or another But certain people give off a sort of glow A wavelength A Vibe A vibe that either brings us together                                                                                  or drives us apart Your vibe grows radiant when you speak from your heart It gives off that Afro-Cuban kind of funk That smooth bass line that could either put a man to sleep Or keep him up all night long

I've been told that the Devil is a liar. It's days like today that help me understand that that couldn't be any less than true. His influences will hit you like a ton of bricks His ways take hold of you like the Jaws of Life But once you realize that your fear, anxiety, and discomfort all come from the Snake It's easy to grasp on to the fact that the Lord is by your side. All it takes is a little prayer. "Faith the size of a mustard seed" That's what my momma taught me

A New Beginning
The thought of you next to me jolts me awake I look left and you're not there My heart skips Because it felt so real

Let's go to the beach tonight Yeah, now. Why not? Let's walk along the coast and hold hands Let's giggle on the shore and play in the sand Let's forget about what's waiting for us at home Just you and I, in the dark. alone

Let's Go
He starts the day with black coffee and a cigarette He's on the ground, but that not where his head is at He writes a poem in his room, on his bed A memory foam pillow greets his weary head He types his heart out with every single letter Ingests chemicals that give him a full header Inspiration comes from a black bird that he saw Circling his house with a mouse in his claw Vultures do what they have to to survive Just like any man would to do stay alive The bird swoops down and takes what's his with no question It's heart beats faster with a geometric progression A man must do the same if he wants to get what's his Especially in the time in which we live He has to be ruthless and swift And take his own like a gift The unsuspecting mouse never really stood a chance And the man must take his opportunity at first glance

Un cadeau, pas nouveau, mais enveloppé dans l'amour, Compte tenu de me des étoiles au-dessus Pour avoir et se tenir avec toutes mes forces C'est vous, je souhaite avoir ce soir

Mon français de Noël
There's ever enough Yet, I've managed to waste so much I think of how much I could have accomplished in the recent time that I've taken off A lot How much money I could have saved rather than indulging on what I thought I needed How many new people I could have met Despite the fact that I barely talk to the people that I'm closest to Oh, but it all can change When someone gives you a deadline **Then, you're on their time** There's nothing I hate more than being on a deadline. It makes me want to step on the gas not shift and make the tachometer red line I like to do things at my own pace, Run my own race But when I'm on you're time, That can't be the case When I'm on your time My opinion isn't worth a dime I have to meet your standards and do it within the time you tell me? **** you.** You don't hold rank over me I'm going to be what I want to be But it's a shame that you cant see The passion deep inside of me I know that my time could be up at any moment. And that Time waits for no one. But give me a chance to sit down and have a drink. Maybe I'll open up and let you in on what I think. In the end this is just a rant It's not like I wouldn't say this aloud if I could. But I can't.

Time
It started with a whisper, And that was when I kissed her And then she made my lips hurt I know I didn't write it But the words couldn't be any more true It was almost like time stopped When our lips locked Our clothes stayed on But the bed rocked I kissed your lips and your neck, You took a deep breath, I put my hand on your side, And then you put me in check When I look into your eyes I see the planets align When I look on to the future It's only you on my mind I want to be with you forever In this lifelong endeavor I look into my heart But know this forever is never It hurts me to see That we will probably never be But I'll try strive as hard as I can To be your one and only man As these words flow from my fingertips *I pray that someone will give a **** I know that none of this madness Can make up for my internal sadness When it comes down to it I'm just another hopeless romantic
