20. I am a college junoir. I have beem writing poems since I was 9 years old. I have been shy as far as releasing my poems, although I try to relate to touch everyone in some way with each stanza. This is my way of connecting to people I may never meet, to people that deal with the same issues I do, to people in general.

No way, Not you, I know you, You're not a gangster, We grew up on the same street Sure it was not the best place to lay our heads or sleep, But we were alive, We played together, I know you No way you're one of them now, You're never home now You're 15, You're too grown now, 10 years ago we sat on the same curb, Now You're mind is gone, You got into some dirt, Those your new friends? They're way older than us, We've run up and down the same hill for years, But its them you can trust, I guess I don't you You're a Ganster Those plastic guns became real, How could you We're one in the same still Do I know you? I'm so confused, Now we're on the same street, But you don't know me No more riding bikes No more corner store trips, No more walking home from school, Besides you never go, Shots alarm the neighbors, Not you, You never know, It's true, The sirens and the lights flash through the windows, I saw laying there on the cement cold, I don't know you, Until its clear to me, I can't believe, How loud your Mom could weep, Held back by yellow tapes and a couple of police, As the medic covers you in a sheet, The same old curb , The same old street, I stare until I realized, And accept defeat, I know you

I know you
No way, Not you, I know you, You're not a gangster, We grew up on the same street Sure it was not the best place to lay our heads or sleep, But we were alive, We played together, I know you No way you're one of them now, You're never home now You're 15, You're too grown now, 10 years ago we sat on the same curb, Now You're mind is gone, You got into some dirt, Those your new friends? They're way older than us, We've run up and down the same hill for years, But its them you can trust, I guess I don't you You're a Ganster Those plastic guns became real, How could you We're one in the same still Do I know you? I'm so confused, Now we're on the same street, But you don't know me No more riding bikes No more corner store trips, No more walking home from school, Besides you never go, Shots alarm the neighbors, Not you, You never know, It's true, The sirens and the lights flash through the windows, I saw laying there on the cement cold, I don't know you, Until its clear to me, I can't believe, How loud your Mom could weep, Held back by yellow tapes and a couple of police, As the medic covers you in a sheet, The same old curb , The same old street, I stare until I realized, And accept defeat, I know you

Love Detect Have you seen love? no-no I mean seen love Not a fake scene love? But real love, Mean love, Not what you see on the screen love, I mean brings you to your knees love That you scream I scream we scream love, Real love, No that sneaking through the window just to see how it feels love Don't use her up, Don't steal Love, But Real Love, That spend your last penny and then rebuild love I need that fight We argue and still love Put her first, Let her go first, That Yield Love, That nothings perfect, It hurts **** But its still love Have you seen love, That sweet love, Cream love, That Mad Love, Blow Steam love, That as long as I have you, I'll protect love, I detect love, I'm looking for love Have you seen love?
