The day of the week was Sunday
It is the last week in December
I spent the afternoon watching NFL games
It has now turned dark
I'm standing on my porch at 8pm
The temperature had to be in the low 40s
It was a cold and stormy night
There was thunder and lightning in the sky
The rain wouldn't stop coming down
It had rained for most of the day
The streets were starting to flood
There was no traffic for miles to see
It rained so much, that I couldn't leave the house
This was my whole Sunday

I looked at myself in a mirror
I didn't like what I saw
The image in the mirror wasn't me
I knew that it was time for a change
What could I do to change
This transformation is a must
All of these evil thoughts were in my head
This is a book, that must be read

I have lived in California for twenty plus years
My adventure started in Vallejo, California
This is thirty minutes from San Francisco
Northern California is a great place to live
My beautiful daughter Kristiana was born here
I then moved to Southern California
Southern California is a wonderful place also
I now live in Los Angeles for three plus years
You can go to Hollywood or Beverly Hills
You can go to Santa Monica or Venice Beach
Los Angeles is my city now
This is a beautiful and vibrant city
The people here are friendly
I love the warm weather all year round
I enjoy going to the beaches here
I can't imagine living anywhere else

I decided to go to Santa Monica yesterday
It was a warm and hot day
Many tourist were in Santa Monica
I'm laying on the sand, at the beach
There were beautiful women all around me
People are running in and out of the water
There were boats on the sea
I can see people surfing in the distance
The waves swallow one of them up
The man falls off of his surf board
The pier is full of tourist
I can hear music, coming from the pier
I got hungry, so I had a pizza
It was late in the afternoon
Now it is time for me to leave
This was my day at the beach

I use my computer to write
Everything else is out of sight
It was a very hot day
It was the month of May
What else can I say
I left my house for a bite
People were in the park, flying a kite
The child held onto the rope, very tight
I rode my bike to the park
It was just about to turn dark
I had a dream last night
I thought that I was in a fight
It was a horrible sight
Now I'm laying in my bed
What is going on in my head
I felt so bad, that I thought I was dead

I met a married woman at a bar
I was single, but playing the field
I was looking for a relationship
This woman was in a loveless marriage
A marriage she was looking to get out of
She was a beautiful vibrant woman
We were attracted to each other from the start
We started an affair soon after meeting
I fell in love with her quickly
I thought that she felt the same
This affair lasted over eight months
Come to find out, she was just using me
She was never going to leave her husband
I was left alone with my thoughts

I think that I'm losing my hair
This is something, that I can't bare
My one and only fear
Is where do we go from here
Do I make the right turn
Or do I crash and burn
Do I kneel and pray
Or do I just run away
I drove my car very fast
How long do you think, that this can last
I'm very big on trust
This is a must
Eventually everything will turn into dust
