There are days when I think of you and the tears that roll down my cheeks taste like the ocean.... And it's on those days when my heart turns into a sponge, drowning in the salty waters. Some nights these waters taste like rose water and on these "some nights" my heart become the seed and my body the cracking vase that bears a blossoming flower. And on other days these eyes are desert dry to the thought of you... And it's on these type of days that my heart smiles as it knows better sunny days are yet to touch this garden.

365 Days
Some little Mister is rapping her in the alley                   Some little drug is taking control of body and soul Some little violence is beating her to the ground Some little government is leaving her with a rumbling tummy           Some little society is making her hang on dangling lynchies Some little education is robbing her from knowledge Some little protection force is shooting bullets at her     Some little old man is whistling at her voluptous curves Some little father figure is stabbing her heart and sliting her throat Some little tinted van is taking her on unwilling journeys Some little  black booted men are storming in her home killing her family. Watching the future generation perishing right in front of my  wracking windows
