My Goals
They are what make me me
They are what I live for
They are my motivation
They are what make me grow.

Against all odds I aim
I keep my eyes on the prize
Against all odds
My focus remains untarnished.

With it in view
No words can express my desire
To keep getting better
For all my goals
Rest on me

To stand on  the step
Like the champion
And win the Right
Because im the record breaker

The stress is getting inside
Caving in the walls of my mind.
There’s no place for me to hide
The stress has me in a bind.

But I’m not giving in
I feel the resistance within!
Even if this is a battle I can’t win,
The stress will not make me give in.
I am going to fight
Despite my overwhelming fright
Even if this is a battle I can’t win,
The stress will not make me give in

Though the pressure is hurting within…

The stress is getting inside
Growing strong as time goes by.
There’s no reason to run and hide
I won’t refuse to try (and win this fight) .

Even if this is a war I can’t win,
I refuse to give in.

Though the pressure is hurting within…

water is my escape
from my problems,
from my responsibilities,
from my list of things to do.
Swimming sends me to my own world
away from my life.
Feeling the rush of the water
Flowing by my face as I swim
across the lanes
only turning my head from time to time
When I am swimming
all fears, all mistakes disappear
into the depths of the pool
While visions of my future
of where I want to be
Of who I want to be
rush into my mind
until I have to leave
the pool is a fortress
for my thoughts of the past and future
Within seconds of getting out
reality snaps back.
until I hear the goggles snap
And I go swimming again

If only she could notice me
Being calm around her I cannot be
Not only do I fall for her beauty
She is everything I long for a
Smart, Intelligent, kool personality
I know that we can never be
cause she does not feel for me
what I feel for her
Maybe, just maybe I can find the key
The key, to unlock the courage inside me
But only if I could get her to see
The nice gentleman I can be
But no, she could never notice me
I know that can never be
cause she does not feel for me
what I feel for her
And so I sit unknowingly
Thinking
Waiting
Hoping
One day
Maybe

only in sleep
shall we make love
only in sleep
shall I caress your body
only in sleep
shall this love have
mutuality
only in sleep
shall two become one
only in sleep
shall this passion be
only in sleep
can it be true

after this sleep
one takes the mask again
dresses up for the
coming hours
well poised and respected
one meets lies with lies
quick as a sparrow
meek as a dove
but foxy still
with your smiles

You had the best intentions
But you caged me in text and the jailer was your insecurity
Every minute of the day you kept me in my desperate state I lashed out trying to find a escape but my rebuttal was to drastic and I ended our embrace and left my self empty so I told my self I can't reach that far ,you can't change her mind because its impossible

come back ,come back to me tonight
Come back so we won't struggle in life fight

I new the words were coming ,but i couldn't stop them
Now I wish I had just ate them and kept them away from you
under my shroud and shadow i kept myself away from you
I wish you could see that you where droning me unintentionally

This is for you
Don't you know that I could be the one to hold you
I'm stretching but your just out of reach
I was yours to hold
i can't go on without you knowing y
