One life and beating heart. sun on my scalp concrete beneath my feet the faint scent of diesel smoke clings to my shirt my shirt clings to me in the scorching heat Fresh off a southbound train i walk towards the sounds of a nearby town i near a road with traffic zipping by and step over the guardrail. i let out a relieving sigh its so good to see cars and other people when a few hours prior i called a boxcar,home 23 hrs crawling thru the desert heat i now unloaded my pack knelt down and kissed the street

I love New York streets The sound of speakers pumping beats Is oh so sweet Skyscrapers reach for the clouds and then the stars at night A canvas speckled with neon lights Sirens blare from far away And traffic never slows Cars fill the streets No matter where you go So many cultures in one place But still people only care About race Cats howl and hiss In an alley stinking Of human **** Thousands of empty apartments Laying in wait But the homeless stay homeless And they call it fate High fashion Low self worth Taxis, bodegas, newsstands, and fruit stands galore We are 8 million strong and still Growing more Hustlers hustle any hours Crackheads fiend in the streets for months without a shower Nodding out junkies sway Almost falling down All beautiful, ***** loud and bright Things make up my town So chaotic But all seems to work This is what it's like It's why I love New York

He sits on a stool in the far corner of the bar stirring his whiskey sour. Finally he feels the warm buzz he's been chasing for hours. "She's probably with him right now",he mumbles to himself. His eyes fix on an aged bottle of scotch up on the top shelf. The drink won't rinse away the dirt going on in his life Nor rekindle the undying love he once felt from his wife. Twenty two years,three kids,and one dog He hangs his head over the glass and wonders what went wrong. Closing time was creeping up slow He orders one more shot before its time to go. The jukebox plays a soft country song He downs the last drops,grabs his coat and he's gone. Where's he gonna go though? He can't go home He knows he'd **** them both if he caught them alone. The buzz is too strong for him to drive but still he starts his car. He thinks He'll be alright, a friend doesn't live too far. Rain pours down out of nowhere,he squints and struggles to see. It stops as quickly as it started and its as clear as can be. But It's too late .He puts his hands over his eyes His car crashes head on with another and smoke fills the skies She let's her "secret" lover out the back door and waits for her husband to come home But little does she know she'll be spending the night and maybe the rest of her life ... Alone

The Last Drink,A Strayed Love,A Life Lost
Twenty billion stars and not one shines brighter than your eyes We are so high on these smoke clouds that no one could pull us from these skies We slow dance past the sun till we are soaked in sweat Ascend towards the heavens from a life with no regrets Your fingers tangle in my hair that flows like liquid onyx Your lips hug my mouth when you lay a kiss upon it Our love is the envy of many alone on this day We cherish our bonded hearts that shall never stray

So in love
Full of **** to the brim Understand how I feel within Can't you see I've had enough **** the attitude you aim at me Each time you insult it hurts deeply Don't tell me you love me so much, cuz the way you treat me is ******

It was all a scam! Avonte knew that man! Autistic children don't trust strangers or run into their hands This was an innocent child sacrificed to put a multi million dollar program in place They knew what they were doing as they wallpapered the city with his face A boys life was lost He never had clue what he did wrong Now the evil ones are lining their pockets And Avonte's dead and gone!

Sacrificed Avonte
Do you ever wonder if there's love out there Will someone give their heart to share You ask yourself,"Am I pretty enough?" Or,"Am I too fat?" True love doesn't care about that It loves you just the way you are No matter what the baggage No matter how many scars True love thinks your beautiful not for your size Because they see the AMAZING person you are inside Even if you never find true love after searching for so long Realize it's you that loved you all along

True Love
Your hot,wet lips on mine make me melt I slide down my ******* As you undo your belt My arms wrap around your strong **** neck then go lower till they reach your back We join together and our love is divine Your body moves in rhythm with mine My breathing shallows and my heart pounds The room is filled with the scent of *** and moaning sounds We ravage eachother till we are collapsed in the end We share a kiss goodnight And pass out on the bed

Ravage
Fire burns in my eyes so much rage I can't subside I hold myself while I cry to keep from wanting you to die I'd **** you! I'd **** you dead! If I only had a 45 to press against your head I'd make you feel my pain and you'd beg me to stop You'd hear the clicks as I cocked it And then..... POP!!!
