Infamous one Feb 2019
Consumed by imagination
Heart spins like a top
Vibrating through the body
Going through the motions
Numb going through the motions
Haven't felt connected
A drifter looking in
Shaken confidence
Starting over yet again
Infamous one Feb 2019
Going through the motions
Just got over being sick
Love for the rain weather
Don't like being in the cold
Writing to express emotions
Able to share a story
Not compete with sad stories
Or who is more petty
Bouncing off ideas or vent
Nice to be heard instead of a shoulder
A shoulder others cry on
Not one to turn down others
Easy to be ignored in a room full of people
From friends to foes only one side is heard
Infamous one Feb 2019
Finding joy in the words
Showing a creative side
My art work lost in the details
Freedom from being closed off
Not always heard by the world
Creating my own place in my head
Making a smile on a hurt face
Different from the rest
Focused on progress
Infamous one Feb 2019
The heart and mind
Conflict of interest
One feels too much
The other knows
One always gets bested
The best of one another
One desires from true love
The other plots, plans for a career
Overcome the fears stand with a moral code
Stop holding back speak up for once
Wipe away tears of joy healing
Make weaknesses into strengths
Infamous one Feb 2019
Trying to get back in the zone
Make writing life feeling incomplete
Without it part of within is missing
Hard to complete sometimes too personal
Too deep from the heart unable to relate
Open with emotions truthful always honest
Older getting wise with time
So return to those thoughts floating around
Unattended feelings that need to be expressed
Hard to find time for fun with a busy schedule
Things are not the same from memories
Memories that remain close to the heart
Those feelings and vibes change over time
Hard to fit in with fading trends that come and go
Infamous one Feb 2019
We both wanted different things
Always focused on a career
While she started a family
A vibe a friendship nothing more
There was mutual respect
Went off to school
Left part to me behind
Always thought of you
On the back of my mind
She always belong to someone
Who never valued her or true
Stayed away dk how to act
Not letting old feelings
Old emotions get the best of you
Act on these feelings
Not trying to hurt loving with no emotion interest
Or hurt anyone with incompatibility
Been down too many times before
That might get the best of me
Hard to see you in my future
I seen you as my other half
If I opened up your laugh
Infamous one Feb 2019
The cross roads choices to be made
Say more or not saying enough
Mind ready to implode
The words won't come out
Others ready to talk and judge
More fake people to play victim
Better to stay away from the slums
So much to rise above over come
Another challenge on another level
Infamous one Feb 2019
On the road in the rain
So many in a rush to be in traffic
Putting others in danger over others well being
Reckless driving doesn't get you anywhere faster
Q34
Infamous one Aug 2022
Q34
He wanted everyone to get better
Pushing forward through tough times
Hated being poor sharing clothes
Been hungry for years hustle strong
We don't get along trying to be better
Over arguing with family walked away
Love them not one of them or a like
Staying quiet already over the routine
Always neglected excluded from it
Instead of being happy with life
Expecting the worse riding the wave
Taking what you can get till it ends
Eventually dries leaving you thirsty
Infamous one Feb 2019
A dream that makes sense
Others tell you it's crazy
A lonely life separate path
The quiet one in a loud crowd
Plotting goals trying to achieve greatness
Never talking about others mind my own
Mind my business keep to myself
Others talk bad when they've done worse
Different from the rest aim to be the best
Infamous one Feb 2019
Overcome the same old *******
Respect the rules even if they are wrong
Challenged for changed not always saved
Left alone not part of the pack
Had an opinion another group attack
Walked away from those talking
Counting blessings not another lesson
Use to be close friends
Negative attitude best to stay away
Bad vibes causing pain
All this deciet mad accepted defeat
Infamous one Feb 2019
Things aren't well unsettling within
Forgiveness still burdened
With grief use to want appreciation
Got nothing but rejection accepted it
It's easier to stay away
Easy to be myself being alone
Always willing to help
But the sacrifice is overwhelming
One area is going well the other crumbles
The struggle to find balance
Hard to breathe didn't do anything wrong
Wide awake helping family
Losing out on money
Hardest working part timer
Infamous one Feb 2019
Not sure about the next move
Thought about it lots of pondering
Still cant figure it out
Made moves came up short
Gave maximum effort
Barely getting by hanging in there
Feared making the wrong choice
Things don't always turn out right
Headaches anxiety coming strong
Ups and downs riding the wave
Infamous one Feb 2019
In the mind turning to stone
Hardening heart trying to feel
Going numb from burdens
Things are not what they appear
Eyes on the prize hard to find balance
Crumbling career time for a change
Loveless love life not feeling the void
Stirred up with multiple emotions
Mixed up with confusing feelings
Infamous one Feb 2019
Another day looping thoughts
Hard to change, things stay the same
Exhausted from the struggle
Another flopped plan in the works
Not one to judge another person
But dont like when people be
I dont look down on others
Don't treat me like an idiot
I'm respectful to rude people
I'm polite when others are cruel
I respect your situation your choices
Not one to care or compete
I don't care if you are rich or poor
Treat people right that says way more
Usually mind my mouth and business
Some days are good others are hostile
Not one to complain just do a good job
Not responsible for others personal life
Lead by example do the job
Do it right the first time around
Infamous one Feb 2019
Things are well others no where to be found
Always around with negativity
Made plans and cancelled backed out last minute
Always delayed, late no regard for others
Made plans that never follow through
Spur of the moment last minute
All of a sudden concerned when usually careless
No invite makes you interested
Always waiting got old just live move on
Keep progressing not settling for less
Can't take the frustration second guessing
Over all the doubt forgave never forgiven
Holding a grudge painting others to be the bad
Acting like no wrong can be done
Two wrong multiple lies, don't make it right
Use to be close now complete strangers
Now distant full of faded memories
Shadowed by shadiness conflict of interest
Pride and stubbornness is the divider
Infamous one Feb 2019
Woke sore trying too hard
Mind racing for composure
Body adapts to the situation
Made adjustments to inconsistencies
Turn the page, close the book
Start a new book, ready for change
Fix the problems, made them better
Come to terms trying to figure it out
Trying to do things the same
So much has changed
Only going forward not back
Asking why so much regret
Bubbling thoughts back of the mind
Infamous one Feb 2019
Smiled at one another
Seen as a friend not a lover
Heard all the dirt tough times hurt
On the mind need to make time
Grew a part not the same heart
Start over or stay away confused
A one sided emotionally invest
Caring for a friend nothing more
Infamous one Feb 2019
Took out the face piercing
Grew up learned to cope
Wised up not making the same mistakes
Learned another life less
Hard to trust in a worldful of lust
Worked hard taken for granted
So many short comings gave it all
Working for more barely coming out even
So much change a new reflection
A surge of angered energy ready to erupt
Defused now exhausted from the rage
From a wild teen going onto recovering twenties
Years have passed almost mid thirties
Thought there was time haven't figured it out
Music says more when words fail
Drawing to ease tension relax the mind
Each line is defined with pressure
Q35
Infamous one Sep 2022
Q35
Cutting the cord feeling revived
Another day to live survived
Not giving life or power to haters
Never talked about them
Better to stay away from the pain
Being drained and frustrated
Is an understatement
Free from toxic influence pressure
All the defense so many offended
Keep working stay out of the drama
Not going back after being excluded
Trying to blame for the misconduct
Put up boundaries everyone is upset
Talking no one cared going else where
A fight to be heard not doing it
Easier to walk away no reason to stay
Felt bad not mad in silence anymore
Free from it all not pretending
Got over filling void roles
Picking up the slack always ready
Never being used right looking in
On the sidelines watching the chaos
On deck waiting ready to go
All out full potential not half *** job
Infamous one Feb 2019
Block out the pain forgetting to live
Trying to figure out
Escape stuck in another rut
In this mind feeling frustrated
With more problems to over come
Been told NO many times before
Eventually move on, not settle for less
Reflected the past see what was
Trying to see in shattered glass
Broken pieces filled fading memories
The heart a treasure box collection
Filled with sentimental value
Memories looping to a better time
Reasons to live full of energy
Given life with meaning
Felt like everything served a purpose
Grew apart things lost meaning
Never the same time changes all
Infamous one Feb 2019
Not one to brag flaunt stupidity
Willing to learn most of all grown
Mistakes are lessons to be learned
Success is short not always noticed
Keep working hard to maintain
Gained so much from failure
Learned who not to be like
How to act not quick to judge other
Thankful for the blessing
Not comparing or like others
Others quick to notices flaws
Point out mistakes to feel superior
Build one another up be better
Instead of crushing a spirit
No longer empowering a deflated ego
Infamous one Feb 2019
Her smile melts hearts
Those jeans others notice
Driving fast hauling ***
Wasting gas on the road
Freezing cold dressed warm
Different worlds crossed paths
Mutual respect personal friendship
Warm loving filled with emotions
Opposite personalities matching humor
Infamous one Feb 2019
In the storm warning others
Stay together be safe
Windy rainy conditions
Played the lead role
Tried to help from the struggle
Beyond having control
no one knows the outcome
Infamous one Feb 2019
Going through the motions
Numb just want to be done
With this work shift
Many problems detached for it all
Smile once cared more than most
Worked hard always determined
Lazy got praised set in wicked ways
Trying to make it better and fun
Not allowed the bad vibes
Killing momentum staying the same
Infamous one Feb 2019
Getting lost within the mind
Losing track of time
Mental anguish confusion
Another day to change
Hold back need not risks
Fear of the unknown
Live in the moment
Be present live life
Live life to the fullest
Seek the moment not hold back
Make opportunity when limited
Make it happen pursue the passion
Infamous one Feb 2019
Keep on creating with art
Can't always explain easy to show
Tap into the internal source
The heart with so much feelings
A mind with never ending thoughts
Sometimes looping desire for change
Back to basics starting over again
Not falling back into bad habits
Guilty conscience in the shadows
Infamous one Feb 2019
All in or nothing
Not one to half *** it
Come real or don't bother
Time conflicts inconsistent schedule
Trying to be whole
Walking around incomplete
Commitment to ones self is difficult
Being pulled in multiple directions
Ignored by family use to tough love
Once a favor is more than a memory
Work schedule is always last minute
Day or night searching for energy
False promises not surprised
Another powerless lead with talks of authority
All talk full of bull not pull with the work title
Tired of listening just trying to get this done
Infamous one Feb 2019
Getting in the zone
Read the word
Clear the mind
All will be fine
Good vibes feel alive
Push through stay true
Q36
Infamous one Sep 2022
Q36
Doing your job picking up the slack
Learning to socialize doing my part
Some don't care dump it on others
Being a teams player taking bumps
So much pressure from all
Do too much they expect it
Have an off day can't let up
They'll assume you're being lazy
Trying to put out the same energy
Slowing down plowing through
Burnt out earning every cent
Pushing through drained from it all
Given chance not letting anymore down
A new role living up to the hype
Since no one else wants it or cares
Infamous one Feb 2019
Outside under the tree shade
Sitting on the porch
The wind whispers calmly
Dark clouds in the distance
Grasping a tender loving hand
At peace with a loved one
Together awaiting the storm
Infamous one Feb 2019
Together in bed
Bonding with one another
Watching shows another binge
A warm caring kiss causing a smile
Big spoon an over night hug
Little spoon ready to be embraced
A blanket war to survive cold nights
One stares as the other sleeps
Time together open minded to emotions
Emotionally deep with a loved one
Infamous one Feb 2019
In a crowded room
Feels empty alone
The world goes quiet
Loud in the mind
Mind tricks
Lost in a maze
Boxed in the head
Trying to escape
Infamous one Feb 2019
On the highway
Bad drivers everywhere
Last minute signals
Cut off by impatient
Others being wreckless
Endangering others switch lane
Tail gating in a rush
To be in more traffic
Not getting ahead
Making more delays
Infamous one Feb 2019
Waiting for the call
Not always inspired
Determined to be doing stuff
Sometimes uninspired
Trying to get paid
Same boring routine
Not always consistent
Another fight being resistant
Infamous one Feb 2019
They said no
Or it couldn't be done
Trying to survive
Stay above water
Made sense within
Showing it can be done
Infamous one Feb 2019
Too many people talking
Should be listening to the voice within
Made sacrifices for the wrong people
Made time got left hanging
Asked to meet half way
Ended up going all the way
One sided an arrangement for two
Made time for others what a waste
Got back on routine
Feeling better about branching out
Wore a heart on the sleeve
Too much hurt expected too much
Gave it all not expecting anything
Can't rely on anyone
Learn all the skills possible
Tired of waiting on others to be denied
Tired of waiting on others
Over being set up to fail
Never settle for less prevail
Infamous one Feb 2019
Came to term
Made decision
Hopefully for the better
Keep working hard
Nothing is given for free
Coped with the past
Carrying bad making it hard
To live in the moment
The best to the fullest
Trying to remember the good
Faded memories can't be revived
Need to make new ones
Infamous one Feb 2019
Forgave those who never forgive
Walking around never forgiven
Over being the scapegoat
Avoid toxic negative people
Who still blame others
Always owned up
Trying to be bettee
Handled business get it done
Use to be friends
Now complete strangers
Pride is the divider
Trust is broken
Lies won't make it right
Infamous one Feb 2019
Not comparing myself to others
Doing my own thing for sometime now
Not competing with others with drama
I've worked hard and not given much
Don't think I'm entitled or deserve
Willing to bust my *** not a kiss ***
Everyone has their own success
I've always been happy for others
When others fail their attitude gets rotten
Demaener quick to change fueled by rage
Stay calm stay loyal to yourself
Been through so much change
Not changing for others
Q37
Infamous one Sep 2022
Q37
Near death determined to live
Do more over the same routine
The list grows on borrowed time
Writing from the heart staying true
Loyal to all the wrong people
Doing what's right causing a fight
Picking up the slack taking charge
Keeping things on track getting ahead
Learning to socialize deal with people
Be fair understanding the situation
While dealing with others problems
Keep them motivated and inspired
Usually focused on the work
Not about the drama anymore
Since it impacts the production
Learning to deal with others feelings
Understand others than ones emotions
Talked about moving up growing still
Not at the bottom anymore thriving
Looking up going forward rising up
Not going back or settling for less
Infamous one Feb 2019
Others trying make waves
Learned to be stable
Steady and ready to go
Worked for everything
Everything is earned not deserved
Some find success easier than others
Some have to work hard
Like to come out even
Tough love consumed by struggle
Leave the hood end up back
Starting again from the beginning
While others given a better life
Want to hang in the ghetto
Different folks worlds collide
Different lifestyle most judge
Easier than trying to understand
Not one to look down on others
Respected boundaries a status
Some more welcoming than others
Coped with so much raw emotions
Infamous one Feb 2019
Another night
A mental fight
Doing okay tough love
Told myself be better
Keep doing right
Composed going strong
Things will be alright
Not fall back into bad habit
Infamous one Feb 2019
Always listening
Never given a chance
A chance to speak
Over being ignored
Getting cut off
Mid sentence
Lost train of thought
Like what's being said
Doesn't matter to others
Not a petty contest
A conversation to connect
Always one way
One sided expectation
Always Giver never enough
Infamous one Feb 2019
Cold weather make it hard
Hard to get out of a warm bed
Everything feels right at the moment
Time to start the day
A few more minutes in bed
Just lay and stare for the moment
Asking what needs to be done
Think of ways to make it fun
Infamous one Mar 2019
A new pen
Ink bleeds clean
On the page
Each page filled
Feelings come out
Private thoughts shared
Lost emotions found
New notebook embraced
Start a new chapter
Infamous one Mar 2019
A notebook that understands
Feels like no one is listening
Most careless unless its beneficial
My words are written
Takes away from the pain
A way to be heard not ignore
Alive and well within
A way to exist
Different from the rest
Infamous one Mar 2019
Showed too much interest
Called too much to check up
Didn't call enough gave some space
Showed no interest
One sided relationship
Half a commitment
Not worth it a lost cause
Don't know how to act
Or how to be with you
Say one thing how to act
Then act another way
Doing opposite walking contradiction
Different from what was said
Gave love got the cold shoulder
Pushed away no reason to stay
Learning to start over love again
Infamous one Mar 2019
Writing is free therapy
A stand up act that is read
Shared moments from the heart
Funny stories with emotions
A way with words full of truth
Straight to the point deep thoughts
Flowing finesse plus personal growth
Mindset changed set to empower
Infamous one Mar 2019
An old friend from high school
Old friends reunited, catching up
Change over the years not the same
Some old feelings surface
Feeling young reminded of a moment
Inside jokes both react with laughter
Picking up where they left off
