The mind is a cruel place
It stores memories
Riddled with pain
Loss
Sorrow
And every once in awhile it hits you with bliss
Just to keep you going
One more day
One more hour
Don’t give up just yet
Just when you thought the ride was over
There you are upside down
Holding onto yourself
Trying to save you from you
This monster you’ve created and called an angel
Smile
They’re watching
Don’t slip up
They’ll figure you out
Pretty faces fade
What will you do then?
Will you still love you?
Silly girl
Haven’t you been smacked down enough?
Bruises fade
****** memories live on forever
In the dark corners of that dark twisted beautiful mind
Try to run
I dare you
But we all know how this ends
You lose
You always do
Stupid girl, superficial love doesn’t last
Selling your soul for a couple of shots
But oh how wonderful it is to forget
And that is where your story begins
I dream of a dream when I'm thinking of you

And when you roll my way, I can't think what to do

Except stare like a fool, like a kid with a crush

When you smile at me, I can't help but to blush

So I keep staring at you, wanting to be known

Hoping that one day you'll call me, on my cellular phone

If I wait long enough, will I be worthy of thee?

Or will I continue to be drift wood, in your Caribbean Sea?

Should that be the case, let me drift for all time

And in bottles I'd send everyday what I rhyme

A poem for your beauty, One for your hair

Another for the cute little tempers that flare

I'll tell you you're pretty, funny, and smart

As my only truest gift, I give you my heart

So my dear don't you see what you hold in your hands?

If it's nothing you want, let it die in the sands

But let it be known, that my heart beat for you

What no one will know, is who I gave it to.
The first time I saw you I was overwhelmed by your beauty. Your thighs put a smile on my face. I’ve always wanted to approach you, but it seems like the more I come closer the further distant you become. Things seem to get complicated with every breath I take. As close as I ever got to you were the mere moments put together by such vivid imagination, A fantasy world created in my hierarchy. When I first laid eyes on you, it took me a minute to process what was before my eyes. I was in total disbelief, such perfection is unknown to me. Are you sure you weren’t made for me? You were nothing short of heaven sent. “You’re cute” those being the first words I’ve ever uttered to you, I didn’t think about, I didn’t contemplate it I just said it . A ton of emotions rushed through me your smile sent chills down my spine, I hoped you wouldn’t notice the blush on my face.. Dear Crush, I think you’re amazing. I don’t really know you but from what I’ve seen I’d like to see more.

Do I know love?

Do you mean affection with…
no objection
and a connection
like a good infection
of a heart’s collection?

Like a crush…
that makes you blush
like you are a lush
that makes your mind gush
with a hard rush?

Maybe you mean to cling…
but not a fling
more like an upswing
and a sting
to what is the real thing?

Or to get close…
where the insides grows
and the body glows
from head to toes
wearing a smile that shows?

Like to get involved...
where your problem is solved
and your mind has evolved
around your heart it revolved
no longer absolved?

Maybe an intense feeling…
that is appealing
for you squealing
for an inner healing
that floats you to the ceiling

Or you mean to yearn…
where you learn
for a good turn
that makes you earn
for a passion burn?


Do you mean to choose…
with nothing to lose
no longer the blues
but a happy news
an offer to not refuse?

So do I know love?

I am not sure what you speak of…
