You never could accept me
For the person that I am
For all the bits that make me me
You couldn't give a ****
You tried so hard to change me
Then blamed me when I failed
To meet the expectations
As your wife, that you unveiled
I gave up all my dreams for you
My hopes and sanity
And you just said I wasn't 'here'
You chose to never see
The sacrifices that I made
To be in love with you
I was never good enough
You made sure I always knew
Well I am so much stronger now
I've sorted out my life
My dreams are truly mine again
I am glad
I'm not
your wife!

I dream sometimes that these teens will
understand gangs aren't cool....
They are nothing but fools
They popping shots like there's no
tomorrow...
Feeling no sorrow......
You think calling females ******* is manly?
Would you call your mother that?
Calling a female a ***** isn't classy
You say you got hoes but the only *** is the player
Your just leading yourself to failure
You think shooting will get you anywhere?
You think taking innocent people's life is fair?
Guess what?
After that gun smoke clears,
Your clique will be nowhere to be found
If you get locked up do you think they care?
They are nothing but just an illusion
I understand that you are full of confusion....
Take a deep breath
Cause life equals death
Life is a game of chess...
Walk through the right path
And you will reach success
Live for the future...
At the end of the day
The only one down for you is you
So Learn from experience of others
not just yours.
I refuse to be one of those people
that everyone chooses to love once she is dead
Don't wait until I'm lifeless and can no longer hear you
to start giving a **** about me
If I wasn't good enough for you while I was alive
I sure as hell won't be good enough for you when I'm dead
If there is something you need to tell me
do it while I can still hear you
If you want to see me
make plans with me
If you love me
tell me while I am still here to love you back
Do not wait until I am a pile of ashes
to confess everything you ever wanted to say to me

A woman shouldn't be with a man just because she needs to...rather she should be with a man because she wants to...and the same goes for men as well.

You say you love rain
But you still put up your umbrella when it rains

You say you love running
But you still sigh when we have to run

You say you love food
But you never seem to have an appetite

And that is why I'm scared
When you say you love me

Not all Hero's wears a cape,

a hero is the person who brought you into this world.

A hero is that person who stopped on the street to give what they could to that homeless man.

A hero is that person who wakes up each day and has to deal with depression anxiety or self worth.

A hero is that kid who is told he will never get anywhere in life and regardless to what he has be told he will stand high and he will reach his goal.

As a child we grow up thinking that you need a super power to be a super hero but in the end a hero come in what is under the frown.

Empty promises
Empty words
Everyone that's spoken
Can never be unheard

Keep the promises to yourself
Do not try and riddle the mind
For it will be detrimental
To ones mental health

If you choose to speak
Then speak with statements true
Do not use words that are empty
For in the end, karma will have you
So many empty promises given.  So many broke....

Oh?
So you want to play that game?
Well.
Let me tell you dear,
I'm not as stupid as you might think.
Because I've been played before,
And I have no intentions of playing with
Or being played by
Someone as pathetic as you.
It's really quite hilarious how some people think they can get away with so much without facing the consequences.

I can see your grip loosening,
Like a rope that has become frayed,
You're probably regretting you stayed,
And slowly your heart is what I'm losing.
They say two people are meant to be,
When they can see the horizon across the sea,
From two different sea shores.
I guess you chose to close all doors,
And now I'm here completely locked out,
Of what you use to call "love"
Inspector Dork was not pleased with himself

he had interrogated everyone in the house
only to be knocked down by
impenetrable alibi

Spouse Susan slept soundly through the night
and was awakened in the morn
when the alarm bell rang in his room

Daughter Debby's room was a floor down
she was up with her studies
plugged to earphones

Son Simon was out for the night
he was at his friend's place
for a birthday party

Maid Maddie made his bed
when the clock in his master's room
was chiming ten

Butler Bill having served a glass of milk
closed the door behind him
and retired for the night.

Inspector Dork was about to leave the victim's room
when his eyes fell on the clock pendulum

it was not swinging

he knew who was lying.

the other day I was approached by a friend when she asked
"what happened to you?"
and my mind just panicked as if I was holding in some sort of mysterious secret that I couldn't allow anyone to know and all I could do was stare blankly
following this question my frail body stormed to look in the mirror as I wondered why I don't see certain things anymore
I constantly think about where those pieces of myself drifted off to so I just could not answer her
God, why couldn't I just tell her how I feel like I can see that girl standing directly ahead of me and I'm reaching out to her with open arms inviting her into my embrace but she does not want to be held any longer because she no longer likes affection shes cold  and shes still afraid to be grasped by any sort of warm touch
why didn't I have the stomach to tell her that that girl standing in front of
me is not willing to spring joyfully back to her creator as she does not have the physical capabilities she used to
do you see her?
am I the only one who can see?
the tendons in her legs are diminished and she can not even fully draw open her eyes
and she cannot see me
she is losing
she is losing
she is losing
she is dead.
