Laugh At Me, Now
You tell your friends I'm weak.
But at one time I knocked you off your feet.
And as much you tear me down.
One day my bad luck's going to turn around.

It been said, you are laughing at my despair.
Tell certain ones, you don't even care.
But one day my bad luck's going to turn around.
So, laugh at me.
Laugh at me, now.
But one day my luck's going to turn around.

So, laugh at me now.
Laugh at me, now.

Enjoy it all.
But one day you're going to regret it.

So, laugh at me.
Yes, laugh at me now.

Eventually, I will turn things around.
If you love them?
Remember, your dad for the effort he made.
Remember him, in your best way.
Some don't the attention they should.
And against the grain of opinions, many are good.

Remember, your mother for the love.
They take a lot off of us and still reach out with love.
They your strongest supporters in any event.
Working tirelessly even when sick.
We be hurt if their love should quit.

If you love them?
Remember, your son for the things he does.
Many still brave enough to tell dad they are loved.
And many brings a frown to their dad face.

Remember, your daughter for the love she shows.
Installed in her from the parents she knows.
And kindhearted maybe when she shouldn't be.
But as a parent that passing of compassion is one of parents' greatest thing.

If you love them?
Remember those unrecognized souls.
Grandparents, if you have them left their marks too.
Some will go quickly to their grave to protect you.

Remember that uncle because one we strictly adore.
And you truly know why.
Remember that aunt in similar veins.

Same goes for various cousins too.
Some that the parents refer to as the dangerous crew.
Some you hang with will keeps guard totally over you.

None will step toward creating a storm.
When you with them.
Same with certain siblings in your life.

Just remember them in good memories.
Well, if you love them.

Deep Within
Within, lies love.
Yes, deep within us.
And sharing it doesn't take much.
And no one can ever deny its worth.

Within, our very existence.
Lies, hope.
Yes, deep within us.
And staying totally positive against the negative.
You become stronger.

Within us, there is the possibility.
Of everything you hope to achieve.
Yes, if you only believe.
That deep within us, we have a dream.

Loving You (The Dream)
In my mind, I vision how to do it.
And in my heart, I try constantly to try to doit.
The dream was loving you to completion.

That every second, minute you felt the sincerity of my affection.
And even during reflection, a smile would come upon your face.
Because loving you to me means keeping a smile upon your face.

The dream, talking about mine solely.
Is to leave this impression that I the creator of happiness and joy.
And if given unselfishly to you, you'll remember it forevermore.
I kissed many.
I love plenty.
But with each one my memories come back to you.

What is it about you?
That you have this hold on my mind.
Sure, I heard from those we know that you were one of a kind.

I held many.
Dance with plenty.
But with both events my memories come back to you.

What is it about you?
That have you controlling my thoughts.
I admit you left your mark upon my heart.

Maybe, the Lord doesn't like us apart.

P-O-E-M
Professing only enchanting moments, with you.

You are professing only enchanting moments of joy.

The purest signs of love.

Blind Faith
I am loyal to him.
I will die for him.
He is a fool leading fool.

Blind faith leads to destruction.

They twist words to appeal.
And in that process reveals plots and plans.

Blind faith leads to destruction.

And then many folks' wonders.
But this happens when you're quiet.
Like controlled robots with no opinions.

Just remember, blind faith led to destruction.
Feb 28 · 82
I Worry
I worry.
I worry about my future.
I worry about any kid future.
In this very gloomy looking world.

Yes, I worry.
Worry about why love hard for folks to accept.
It requires no money to share.

Yes, I worry.
I worry about the stupid decisions; we all seem to make.
I worry about clashes between cultures.
We are very aware none better than the other.

Yes, I worry about our political climate.
Where we are seeing clowns playing the non-caring game?
Using faith as the main theme.

Yes, I worry.
So, should you.

The Bigot
We don't like your kind.
We are above you.
Least that what I been told.
And came to believe until we steal all your creative things.

So, he inquired?
What kind?
Am I if I might ask?

You know.
Really, I don't know what my kind is.

We bleed the same color blood.
Created the same way out of love.

The bigot, you are getting too big for your britches.
****, I never thought about that.
They seem to fit me like those overalls you wear.

I just thought I throw that in there.

The bigot.
There you go trying to confuse me.
You Nigers always confusing to me.

Sir, do you need help with spelling.
I noticed in your bigotry you left out a letter.

The bigot.
Just leave me alone.

Well, I never started the conversation.
Long been told to leave a hateful soul alone.
Love can't be erased.
Love can't be replaced.
Sure, some tries to substitute it with hatred.
But we know which word comes into second place.

Love heals.
Love reveals.
Love fulfills.
And love doesn't ask for much.
Because love is priceless.

So, yes, it's true love can't be erased.
Notice, how its constantly being chased.

There is something about love that we try to define.
But all you have to say it's one of a kind.
At certain growth in life.
Wisdom comes in handy handlings folks, especially teens.
When they mouth off without comprehending certain consequences to come.

We been there, we face the storm.
Some was kind, some might lead to harm.
Thing banned and taking without a single regret.

Teen's years are moments hard to forget.
But the parents' patience you remember more.
Because it done with wisdom, patience and love.

Life is about learning and from adults and youth perspectives that's what growth is about.
Feb 27 · 134
Not Once
Not once, have I regret it.
Very hard to even forget it.
That moment when you touched my heart.

Not once, have I not admitted it.
You simply deserve to know my feelings.
That moment when I knew it was you.

Sometimes, we guess and guess and guess and be far from the premise.
But in this case, all guessing was true.
This soul here strictly grew to love you.

Not once was there any pretense.
No acting required to admit my attention.
Yes, not once.

Just as long you're in it.
In my sleep
I hear you.
In the morning, noon I hear you.
You're the greatest voice I ever heard.

Giving wise advice to me.

In my heart.
I feel you.
In everything I do you're there with me.
You're the greatest voice I ever heard.
And these are more than simple words.

You're a voice to be reckon with.
To my life, you're my greatest gift.

You have enriched me.
You have in life been a blessing to me.

I hear you now.
Even if you're not around.

I Fell In Love
They appear to not care or even comprehend.
I fell in love, and they have my time.
Remember being in love isn't a crime.

When planned out accordingly?
I still hang and enjoy them my friends.
But I fell in love and it's very wonderful.

Nothing changed between us to be serious.
And no being love hadn't made me delirious.
But have me explaining it beautiful.

The Chase
I have chase you too long.
Just to lose you to another.

And each time they break your heart and spirit.
Here I go with this chase again.
When I been told you only wants to be friends.

And when I stop the chase.
I see you trying to be more than friends.
But remember you didn't want this man.

When will this chase ever end?

Will there ever be a chance for us?
That forever be the question between the both of us.

Me chasing you.
You chase me.
We might just give it a try before saying goodbye.
I am wanting you.
You are wanting me.
Some days, it be like that.
When I don't feel like doing anything?
Just nothing.

Nothing electronically, not even a phone day.
Nothing medical, unless a serious fall or accident.
Some days, it just be like that.

Not even writing less of all typing.
Not even chatting unless it's important.
Small talk ticks me off.
Some days, it be like that.

Hate to say it but more admit it.
Not getting up for church even when I should.
Especially if the sermon going to be a bore.
Some days, it be like that.
While knowing the power above deserves to be praised.

I know I'm not the only one.
Except, some days it be like that.
Least I am brave to admit it.
Feb 19 · 47
Soon
Soon, you might realize it.
Eventually too late.
That you the problem.

And you creating more each day.
Soon, you might find yourself alone.
Wakeup, one morning and I'll be long gone.

Soon, you might realize you not carrying your load.
Eventually too late.
By the time you do, it be over and one minus one be known.

And friends, family will accept the reasons I moved on.

Brain Washed
What you see?
Is what I present?
Be not shocked by sin of any minister.

Some leads accordingly.
Some lead just to please themselves.
After all, many brain washed by faith.

What you see?
Is what I present?
Not all couples happy behind that white picket fence.
You been brain washed by many images.

Somewhere in life?
We buy into what presented to us.
Many of us fooled by various politicians.

Just the things they say they will do.
Then, you realize you simply was a used tool.

Yearning, with a flaming desire.
Zestful forever in my eyes.
All these words are benefitting of you.
Back in the day of music.
All types were played.
Didn't matter the color of the artist until later.
But I wanna know--who is country?

No one pigmentation signify it.
No one control the scenery.
None in these big cities loves the truth.
That there is a great chance if you trace your heritage.

Then, we all know who is country?
From Chicago to Michigan.
From the west coast to the east coast.

Many of us know, who is country?
Salute the athlete that pulls the models/the actress.
Just realize they never pull love.
That alone is a different adventure.

Whole different concept.
And them cry and gripe when through foolishness they are gone.

Salute the athletes will that simple one.
She might not be glamorous but to him he has true love.
Who would love him?
When all his money might be gone.

Whole different concept.

One lives by reality.
One lost in fantasy.
And after career comes to an end, he wants to be an actor.

One day deserves more attention than others.
Even, if it's spoken this day is assigned for joyful lovers.

Candy, flowers and spoken words.
Will gather lots of attention.
Even of Happy Valentine's Day never mention in the conversation.

Pleasure, passion and a little joy will be shared and given.
But let us all remember this, let not your love be diminished into one day.

Because love is seen and given every single day.
Between lovers, between friends, and family too.
Feb 13 · 43
No Man Should
Obviously, it's seen.
It been century in the making.
Obviously, it's known.
And it's of their own making.

No one man should be intimidated by another.
But it's known and yes, obviously seen.
Some just won't admit it.

They have the power and the clout.
Just not the knowledge and the wisdom.
They are even jealous of this man attention.

But no one man should be intimidated by another.
I will admit one group of men intimidated by certain men of color.
But no man should be.

But obviously it's seen and obviously its known.
But no man should be.
All, I am asking you?
Is to put my love in your heart?
And I guarantee you it will never depart.

All, I saying to you?

I am love.
You are love.
With this who needs more.

Words (How Dangerous)
Words, words can flip a moment or a story into a totally different perspective.
Yes, words.

Say, I love you and watch the mood.
It can change one into a joyful soul.
Say, I love you never get old.

Words can create heat.
Make no mistakes about it.
Look at the definition of hate.

Which mirror closely into the word anger.
Which controls many folks' moods.
Even, folks' comments can offend you.

We, not going to venture into politics.
We, see there are many suckers into these candidates' tricks.

Words of hope holds so much joy.
Like a sweet smile or tone that can cheer you up.
Some words serve a wonderful purpose.

Words are expressive this I must admit.
Even, when they create you to be upset.
Words leaves memories, you simply can't forget.

Words, how dangerously they can be.
Except, I won't stop you saying you love me.
Feb 12 · 58
Say You Do
Tell the truth.
Laet it out that I'm your man, you love.
Oh, say you do.
Yes, tell the truth.

There's no single reason to lie.
Let the world know I am your guy.
Just tell the truth.
There's no need to be in denial.

It can only take your feelings higher.

Just claim it as your own.
It's yours to have and to share.
Just say you do want it to be a part of you.
Feb 12 · 130
Enjoy It (Being in Love)
Your eyes tell the truth.
Your voice does too.
Your hands express it.
I might well confess it.

Enjoy it, being in love.
Enjoy it, being in love.

Yes, it come and go away between certain people.
But if it's real it shows too.
So, enjoy being in love.
Enjoy it and so much more.

Love really doesn't cause any trouble.
But we the people think it does.

Find that certain one and you find so much more.
Don't bring your business into my business.
You can't dictate my decisions.
I'm not trying to be a politician.

What concerns me?
Shouldn't concerns you.
But for some reasons they always seem too.

Everyone seems to have an opinion about me.
Except, many of us barely know me.
You just read this or that or basing comments on things you heard.

Guess what?
I hadn't even spoken a single word.
And not going to comment of things you heard others say.
I don't conduct things that way.

So, don't bring your business into mine.
You just might find it to be the wrong time.
And if you're wise?
You just might stay alive.
Feb 10 · 62
Maybe
Maybe, I'm a man that don't ask much.
I just want a woman with a soft, soft, touch.
One, who will love me so much.

Maybe, I'm a man that is hard to understand.
But that's just the man I am.

I believe in love to the very end.
And hope to find this one special woman to be my lover and friend.
So, maybe I'm a man of many things.

But if you know me deeply?
I am not hard or difficult as it seems.
Feb 10 · 67
Baby, Don't You Know
Oh, baby, don't you know that I still love you.
After all these years.
Baby, don't you know this.

Sure, there might be others finer.
But what I have I'm willing to die for.
Baby, don't you know that I still love you.
After all these years.

Even, when you push my nerves.
When folks say, it takes a strong soul to love you?
Take those words to heart.
One day you might wake up and find me long gone.
Don't take me for granted.

When truth stands before your eyes?
I am one special type of guy.
So, don't take me for granted.

You need to start doing your part.
Feb 9 · 83
We Agree On Love
You see the negative in everything we do.
While I see the positive between me and you.

You see wrong in so many things.
We see right and that's not about to change.

And when folks say opposite attracts.
I guess that's exactly where we at.
But we agree on love.

I see up.
You see down.
I see smiles.
You see frowns.

And when folks complain about everything single thing.
I guess that's apart of you.
But we agree on love.

It's what motivate us.
In summary, yes to you.'
You're the best person I ever known.
Oh, I can describe more cause, we both are grown.

There is no need for clues to this mystery.
Because somewhere this love exists.
And our bound all-around trust.

Loyalty, somewhere this love exists.
Happiness, somewhere this love exists.
And trust, somewhere this love exists to the point that we have in between us.

If upon a trip without one another?
We be discussed because many seems to know us.
And if things never were?
It soon will be concerning us.

Because, we aware, somewhere our love exists.

How long?
Will I love you?
And I think about the question for a minute or two.

Then say.
Then say.
Until my love had fade.
I'm never going away.

Hong long?
You ask me, will I protect you.
And quickly give you, my response.

And say, yes say.
Until you're feel safety in my arms.
I forever be your protector.
Right now, right now and forever.

I hope I have left an impression in your heart.
One that sincere and will last forever.
Even, when I'm gone.

Yes, even when I'm gone.
Feb 4 · 52
Don't Want
Don't want no crazy love.
The type which might become criminal.
Don't want no lazy love.
The kind not trying to make an effort.

Don't want no fool in my life.
The type can't detect wrong from right.
Where you the one figuring out the path to take?

I want my lover to be a breeze.
Warm me up on cold nights.
When it predicted to snow and freeze.

I want my lover to have a heart of warmth.
So hot like a summer's night.

Don't want a limited mind lover.
But one with a boarder perspective to see loving as a big picture.
Don't want anyone afraid to love.

After all, isn't that something we all want.
We do it.
We might not admit.
But we sit in church being judgmental.

From the clothes that saints wear to those of the ministers.
Yes, it goes both ways.

We might not admit it.
We don't agree or accept everything many ministers say.

We just following protocol.
We do it.
Just might not admit it.

We judge the sinners, and they judge the saints.
We might not admit it.
Except, it's true.

A Wonderful Life
What are you going to remember about me?
When I'm gone.

Are you going to remember my heart?
The love I shown and shared.
Or just the way I care.

Are you going to remember my life.
What I hated?
What I like?

When I'm gone.
Are you going to understand my ways?
And my ways might not be your ways.
We are individuals into different things.

That we might not always be on the same page.

Are you going to remember my smile?

Think about me anyway you like.
But agree I had a wonderful life.

And I hope I means the world to her.
She, my peace.
She, my foundation.
My calmness through any situation.

Hello Heartbreak
Hello heartbreak.
Make no mistake I've been here before.
Thinking I found my love just to see myself alone once more.

When the one you love?
Doesn't want the attention given.

So, hello heartbreak.
I just telling you my truth story.
No need for me to embellish.

Church Man
Perfect, I might not be.
Confessed all sins I've done.
I'm not better than anyone.

From church boy into a church man and folks think we totally different than others.
Oh, separate yourself from the World we are told.
But it's this world that taught me things hidden from us in church.

They speak, they state church man means so very much.
And when we violate that loya oath.
We covered by those without sin cast the first stone.

Sinners can be saints, as saints can be sinners.
I guess some of us fail to comprehend, we're no better.
