Quiet walks Along the shore rocks Waiting for a call Just behind the seaweed wall Turquoise shimmer Dark shadows flicker Candlelit meeting For the one thing I've been needing My legs become one As I drift into the waters Following one of Triton's daughters Plummeting into the sea But our time becomes limited And back to the shore I drifted Watching her slip away Telling me come every other day Looking out into the horizon's wefts Begging God, "five minutes, please" Love sunken with the memories As she floats back into the oceans depths

Your eyes tell a story, down a path leading to an eternal ocean of past lives and loved lies basting in the hopes and dreams of permanent destruction Devine perfection perceived as crippled obscurities fearful of who's identity is portrayed keeping signs of divinity at bay avoiding the love of the guides covered in humanities tainted prides

Divinity's Eyes
The glamour and the lights No such thing as winter night Celebrity sights? Let me show you my contact lists But there's so much untold Open your eyes and behold Listen on the train, to the babies fuss Avoid the screaming man, he's ****** Beverly Hills misinterpretation  Really lived off 7th and metro station The man sitting next to you coming down Was once a successful businessman downtown There is no American Dream Everything is a money making scheme The single mother with those twins She was ***** walking from work in the heights Everybody knows everybody But nobody's are nothing's Cheating husband, double life He's got a boyfriend, don't tell his wife The city of Angeles Not everybody wins Watch out for the forgotten demons Not everyone lives under city lights Yet we all have to figure out our way Taking any opportunity we could But I'm living just another day In Hollywood

Hollywood
Mine... Three months pass You go through the worst physical pain Your body begins to drain And you tell me during math class I know what really happened And how you're being shallow There's just one thing I need to know There's just one thing to ask for all to be cleared Sixteen and I'm dreaming Of our little guy And he's gleaming It's a boy, I know. No lie. I dream of him playing outside Chasing after him Catching him at the end of the slide Sending him off to kindergarten Dark brown hair Blue eyed gift Puerto Rican, but his skin's fair With our whole lives with him to share But then my dream begins to dim He's vanishing You're screaming And I've already fallen Your pregnancy never went past twelve weeks That's pretty much no time But knowledge of truth my heart seeks Answer me this, was he really mine...

Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel There comes a time when you realize you have to live your life for you The day will come when you find out you're all you have in the end And you find yourself crying by yourself because everyone is gone that in situations you always helped them through Its okay to show your fears, you no longer need to pretend You've done what's asked of you and so much more Thank you for your work You definitely deserve an encore Close the bottle, reseal the cork The stories to be said about you are phenomenal But its time for them to be set on the mantle Start your own life now, you've given everything else your all And we'll call the past stories memoirs of an imperfect angel

Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel
Iced cigars, empty bottles Missing clothes, crazy nights Scratched backs, ****** nails Bruised thighs, forgotten cares Hit it harder, make it louder Back shots and back strokes Lights flash, we still smash Intoxicated revelation Going deeper, losing voices Stumbling in the door Start on the stairway Fall to the floor Go below the belt Now turn over Slow it down and pull closer Lay it down while putting it down Blacking out begins The room spins Let go of each other Now lay there until the morning light

Iced Cigars, Empyy Bottles
Have you ever been so in love That your entire life gets consumed By the thought of the one who has your heart? What if you hadn't even mentioned how you feel? Has love ever caused you to fear all aspects of life? Do you even remotely understand my inevitable pain? Have you ever questioned if you're emotionally alive, But when you see that special one your body and soul revive? Then, do you question how long you'll survive? Will it all come crash down? How can one but so bad, Yet you always accept them back into your life? When did something so deadly Begin to feel so right? All of this is a heartbreaking situation That is uncontrollable. Being unable to confess your love Is the equivalent of being committed. There's only two options: Live in fear, Or die in love that remains eternal. This is my affliction. This is my addiction. This is my attraction. I'm an assassin's victim of love arrows. This feels like poison by what or whom seems to be unknown. I beg of you, Be my cure. I do love you.

I'm an Assassin's Victim of Loves Arrow
The fact that everything is about you anymore is killing me. The fact you put everybody before me hurts, you see. Your right, I don't know you anymore. Nothing left is in store. I guess it was fun while it lasted. Good luck with your career, hope you get casted. I'm tired of this childish game. It's just not the same. I've known for months it was coming to this. But, I was hoping it was less of a hit than a miss. Your selfish, and I hate that. Good round, to you, off I take my hat. I give too much and I'm too nice. I guess for that, now I pay the price. From now on, your on your own. I hate the person you've shown.

Who You've Shown
Kick off those Valentino's Tell me about your day Take a sigh of relief Let me pour you a drink Lean up on me, body to body Relax as I kiss your neck Ya know, that spot behind your ear As I unbutton your blouse slowly Notice I wore your favourite cologne Pull your leg up to my waist for a tease Close your eyes as I gently massage your shoulders Candles dripping on your spine Sorry I tore your skirt Here let me kiss your lips to show I care I'll captivate you in our love lair Anticipate as I kiss down your body, each peck Feel my fingers grace down from your naval Promise you won't even hurt Don't fear It's your turn, I'll pay

After Work, Work Begins
So beautiful So elegant So independent So free spirited Her eyes, stormy blue Her hair, curly and brown Her smile, angelic Her heart, well, it was mine God broke the mould when he made her God made her for me, I know God has a special plan for her God gave her strength If I could here's something's I'd say No matter who I'm now with There's none comparable to you I never meant to hurt you, swear Because without you, there's no air Your destiny, I beg you fulfil I'm sorry we've ended I'll never give up though There's always hope, right I've always pictured you in a wedding gown But now my vision has begun to drown My heart's sunk all the way to hell But let it burn with all the memories These things she'll never know Like how much she's missed Especially when I think of that first kiss But most importantly, I never stopped loving her
