Hopeless romantic
Our babies are having babies Cant keep their legs closed They open their mind to a different life Open their eyes to a different light LED lights flash before their eyes Little T.V. screens you cant get away from their hands. Finger tips click, click,  clicking away The only time i can feel my heartbeat is when there is red, white, and blue flashing behind our ride I hear my heart beat thump, thump,  thumping in my ears My Hands are shaking My voice is trembling as i try to open my mouth to tell you how i truly feel but you look at me with those blue eyes that remind me of the sky with a hint of green like the leaves on the trees we sat under when i told myself im in love with you I feel a waterfall form in my eyes as you ask "whats the problem, officer?" Hand on his gun The only time i feel safe is when your hands are around my neck Telling myself its okay Telling myself i'll be okay Is like lying to your mother Im only 17 but my eyes are more wide open than your mouth is when you get the wrong phone for your birthday Some kids dont get birthdays Their last birthday was their first in heaven You say you want in the game But this game aint no game Good Kids are getting shot over the game You say you want in the game but all it does is make you look lame, stay in your lane Snapchatting your 4th blunt "so lit tonight" Snapchatting your last memory "90mph" music so loud you cant hear your thoughts Eyes so low you cant see the truth It lies right underneath your nose Look up and youll find a better light With a better life And maybe a wife This ice aint all that This life aint all that

Im a hopeless romantic its more organic than the produce youre buying just to make it through the week to feed your little family. Local Walmarts cant fit your budget. Your goverment isnt hearing your thoughts. Eyes are closed. Mouths are shut. Hiding the truth so our $100 bills can wipe their **** We're stuck in a rut. Poverty stricken. Moms not in the kitchen. Kids running the streets. Killing our teens. Selling our **** Filling our minds with negative energy. CNN isnt airing my hood yet. Fox 4 only shows local teens shot dead. Little girls losing their minds, talking to men just to waste some time. Just to catch a crime. Smoking up marijuana trying to run away from their problems. Running away from home to be alone in a world we cant think for ourselves. In a world we cant think to ourselves. In a world we cant walk the streets to get a drink without being shot by the local police. 99 cents only gets you so far. I dont know whats happening; what is this world. I dont know these people; who is this girl. In a world full of aliens i feel the most unknown.

i got all this love in my heart for you but hate on my mind for you. You dont know what i would do for you. Because you is all you think about. You is what you truly care about. **** all the feelings and apologies. Because you never wanted me. You looked at other girls. Like 'oh wow, look at her' but im like 'oh wow, what a world we live in where my own mans cant keep his own eyes on me so i gotta keep my eyes on me, keep my mind on me and  worry about me because nobody else will ever worry about nobody else bc everybody in this small world is conceited. Small minds wondering about. All caught up in these little tv screens. Making useless memories. Still not thinking about you and me. So, **** all the memories. **** you and **** worrying.

Memories cross my mind Distant memories of you and i Further and further they go and hide In the back of my mind they stay inside Innocent memories burn in my head I'll probably just stay in my bed To hide from the memories that haunt me at night Please leave me alone, have a good day and have a good life

Some Things are just not meant to be. People Will hate you for who you are and destroy you, you Are Important in every way, shape and form. Toxic People deserve to go to hell.

Blank face No emotion No energy Nothing When I heard the news Nothing. Suddenly, Tears Anger Sadness Depression I threw my hands in my face Then, Self harm Abuse Drugs Alcohol Finally, Happiness Relieved Peace

For the next girl: When he talks to you, please listen. He doesn't open up often When he stares  at you, say what. He'll call you beautiful When he smiles, smile back When he kisses you, kiss back When he hugs you, hug him tight. Don't let go When he says he loves you, love him back When he wants to see you, don't hesitate For the next girl who gets to love him, please don't leave him. Love him more than anyone ever has. Treat him better than he's been treated.

For the next girl
Never had a lot. Just a lot of love and hate No where to go but to Mary Jane Never scared to get caught Never worried because I got her on my side I'm pretty worthless, not worth very much I'm not perfect at the least Gotta lot of love to give but hate is all I receive.

I read you as you look at me up and down, left to right. Seeing my anxiety, trembling hands as I kiss you. Saying I love you with tears in my eyes wishing we never end. You have no worries, confident smile Chin up as you walk. My shoulders relax then tense up as we stop walking Now I have to say something Something dumb, something important. I smile and say what You always call me beautiful, even though I will never believe it Thank you is what I always say. I don't want to argue about that I just want to be alone. I give you a light hug. No kiss but you kiss me anyways My music gets louder, my breathing gets shorter My hands start trembling more Anxiety consumes me yet again No surprise it always does I wish I never got attached. I wish we never end.
