And Death knocked at my door and asked if I was ready with my Coffin
"Coffin for what?",I asked
"It will be your roof to save you the rain",Death replied.
Have you come with some morphine?",It was my turn to ask.
"Morphine?", said death in confusion.
Yes,Morphine, I'm not going down without a fight so by the time I hit the canvas you'll need it to soothe the pain
No, I wasn't ready for a fight",Death sighed, guess you'll have to die another day.
I'm inspired by people who battle cancer, It's ******* them just incase you haven't seen one

"Someday I'll get over you"*
Is the biggest lie I told I and you

I'm planning to cross the ocean
I'm planning a swim under the sun
I'm planning to hit and follow the road
I'm planning to lift all my load
I'm planning to endure the hurt
I'm planning to fix my heart
I'm planning to tightly embrace
Water my faith and bloom in grace
I'm planning to give it another try
Even if it might as well make me cry
I'm planning to osculate again
And walk with you in the rain
I'm planning to forgive that day
Even if it still feels like yesterday
I'm planning to get up and get going
On a train, yatch or a boeing
I'm planning to lift myself from down
And instantly leave this town
Pulling my socks,tightening my laces
'Cause I'm planning on going places
There's a peace I seem not to have
I'm planning to find it, and to love
I'm planning to write another chapter
One that ends with happily ever after

So you've been here ridden on your bed
So alive and in pain just feeling dead
With thoughts crawling in your head
Wondering why It's you that's bled
So much in this God forsaken earth
Questioning every bit of your worth
So you've been lying here 'cause your leg
Present in its numbness is a mere peg
You're probably pondering the feeling
I have, wondering if It's as chilling
If seeing a friend like you lay helpless
Is touching as much or aches less
Well, I cannot begin to know your pain
But as a longtime friend and brother
It hurts watching you lie here rather
Than being with us out there roaming
The streets,I pray you get better so that once again
We can sweep the town in pride & go storming
Our usual pubs as we always did at dusk
I hope it really isn't too much to ask.
I've written this for James Eric, a friend whose leg as I have just discovered was operated but It's seemingly not getting any better .
I hope all of you join me in praying for him for he and his Mama have had lots of challenges, can't imagine adding on this too to the plate.

But a love quake changed me, got me out a fix as soon as we met and I forgot about the jailing maze of my past and moved on.
If I forgot a letter let me know :D

My spirits are low
No more inspiration
No matter the perspiration
The stars have refused to glow
It's probably because I'm happy
But why should happy make ******
And poems not worthwhile
Well feel like frowning this smile
Even just for a little while
I wish inspiration was at a dial
Well, sorry poets, not feeling like poetry since I received an email that I made it through to the Barclays young leaders mentoring program..
My essay was among the best.So I have a lot of anxiety and strange emotions.
So used to feeling empty, I even don't know how to be happy anymore :o

I wanted to stump ******* your chest
So I could leave a footprint in your heart
If only someone would show me how best
I could do it without you getting hurt
I wanted to trip you so that you could fall
And be mine forever, once and for all
'Cause whilst many called my pieces *******
You said sometimes **** is worth the stink
Encouraged me to ignore what they think
And reorganized my jumbled mind to neat
You melted my heart like it were ice
With a single glance at your eyes
You stole the rhythm of my heartbeat
Or say in your presence It's a drumbeat
You make me lose the sense of senses
Yeah, even the grip on my tenses
I'm a car and you drive me so wild
If any of my control is left ,It's so mild
A touch of your skin drives me mad
You're that thing all lads wish they had
I don't know how to say this, ***
That I adore how gracefully you walk
That you sound like Angels when you talk
But I cannot utter even a single word
Of it ,your presence,leaves me speechless
And yet your absence leaves me breathless
I wasn't one to fall before you came around
How'd I avoid falling when my feet are spell bound
So I tried to write since I'd lost the gas
Came up with nothing better than this.
