pain
my focuss
happiness
drained
in my thoughts
what is real
with the devil
was there a deal
pain
happiness
i drank
to **** them away
everyday
i walked across hot coals
to see if i could feel
i did not burn
in the turn
what have i become
my only friend
happiness ends
it became a fast trend
i tried to disappear
i am still here
at my age
accepting things
is everything
in my end
will the pain bend
will happiness begin
if only i could start
again

sweet love
sweet love
i can no longer trust
so long now
i have been alone
stayed hiding inside my home
after it failed
the first time
the second
and the third
i am burned
knowing
that i would never let it return
buried my heart deep in dust
for me
there would never be an us
bound by chains of fear
it's crystal clear
love
i would never trust
again

to let it go
what a mess
could not learn from my
mistakes
i was going to do what it takes
true love
so hard to face
how would will you know
if you do not try
i could never let it go
from thirty years ago
i tried my best
i could never sleep
in my mind to deep
i weep
i lost something
that i could not replace
never left my place
if i missed a call
it could not be traced
that time could not be a waste
i had to stop the chase
but
in my head
i could not get it to erace
another love could not replace
look at my face
no one could fill my need
how do you stop
a heart bleed
that is thirty years old
you say
by letting it go
i tried

Authority missed used
All the time on the news
All of a sudden a side we think we need to choose
There was no need to
Finally a video tap
That shows what they do
Gun shots fired
A black woman dead (Breonna Taylor)
My God she was getting ready for bed
Now dead
A knee to the back of the neck
He could not breath (George Floyd )
A black man dead
Not before asking for his mother
A son, a big brother
Now another
CHANGE will be their legacy
After years of suppression, racism
We stand together
Blacks and whites at their best
And protest
Demanding
Enough, Enough
It's time to end how rough
STANDING TOUGH
Together handcuffed
(CHANGE)
By color we are a race ??
There is only one race
The human race
As I write this
I shed a tear
In sadness
And
For hope
That there will No longer be a hidden
"ROPE"

in his or her green and kaki army fatigues
they fight a war
so where freedoms and democracy can prevail
with no red cape
no special powers
without a reflecting shield
they march into a battlefield
guns drawn
they put up the greatest fight
hiding their fear of flight
the whistle
the bullets sound
the direction
the way
the bullets paved their way
they knew exactly where to end
the god awful sounds
as one by one they hit the ground
the hearts slow and struggle to beat
no loved ones by their side
our heroes die

driving down a road
flying
black crows
alone
all i see
grave stones
i cannot scream
a
****** stream
horrible scene
heavy smog
fog
downed logs
falling frogs
hairless dogs
attacking
a dream
a dead deer
blood smears
devil appears
his fires
landscape
seared
a dream
it's dark
black
light
lacked
a snack
fighting back
the pack
stepping on the cracks
they keep coming back
flashbacks
a dream
was
not wanted
constantly
it haunted
it taunted
in a place
life
not a trace
null space
no flowers
In
a vase
a dream
maybe

hot turns to cold
this is getting old
it's out of control
which ever way the wind blows
we both go
again
the craziness we cannot let go
what is there to hold
the things that have been told
hide and go seek
keeps us at our peak
the slips
the love that occasionally leaks
two freaks
the hand print
left on my cheek
the mean streak
makes us complete
week to week
when things seems bleak
does not make us weak
the games
i blame
you blame
there is no shame
we both came
tame
not our claim to fame
the games
will never change
not our strange
we never stay estranged
the games
the power
the desire
we play
the games

if i
could to do it all over again
where would I begin
if i
had to run another race
could i make to the end
if i
changed my pace
could my path be traced
if i
left this place
so much i would not care to replace
if i
should die
i hope everything i was told
was not a lie
if i
am a alone
i will find my comfort at home
if i
cry
real tears will come from my eyes
if i
say goodbye
so much that could imply
if i
fall
i would stand up tall
if i
am headstrong
i would admit i was wrong
if i
know you
know me too
if i
or when i
sin
i would have to look deep within
if i
could change this world
so much would be unfurled
if i
had to hide
would that not be lie
if i
am me
there would be
no need
than to be any other
than
me
if i

You
Are who you are
Because of you
Not
Because of someone wanting
you to be
You
and
only you control your
fate
Be who and what you
are
meant to be
You

a tear
from fear
will not disappear
through the pain
a constant
year
to the cheek
adhering
wiping
it smears
another tear
this fear
sincere
wiping, it too
smears
another
another
and
another
fear
those things
i do not want to hear
may i wake in a year
to the tears disappeared
a cry
of defiance
in silence
the fear
a tear
in the constant voices
i hear
brings
the fear
a tear
labouring for life
my conscious spirit
fears
shown in
a tear
