You Got Me Interested
jeffrey conyers Aug 2014
I heard about your skills.
And I was intrigued.
You're got me interested.
And that's a compliment.

Yes, you've got me interested.

They say, you experienced in so many things.
And if we connected you would teach me things.
You've got me interested.
What more can I say?

Its said one touch from you.
Would feel like magic.
A experience of love that will last forever.
Oh, you've got me interested.

But don't be surprised to see me teach you things.
To have you amazed.
Oh, I have you interested.
You'll learn things you can't explain.

Born Under A Bad Sign
jeffrey conyers Jul 2012
Albert King, sung loud about being born under a bad sign.
B B King, sung about his need for a little bit of love.
And stated later.
How the thrill was gone?

Far remove from Marvin Gaye's pleading to Let Get It On.
Different era.
Different song.

Howling Wolf.
Muddy Waters.
And Little Milton too.
Could have you dancing and begging too.

When the Mojo got to working.
The thrill came back.
Like the red rooster chasing the hen around.

Until you felt.
You was born under a bad sign.
When the loving got uo and left.

Was you a scorpion?
Or Taurus.
The sting or the steam couldn't assist you.
Least when you're listening too ZZ Hill.
Singing down home blues.

Then you could careless about being born under a bad sign.

My How Times Has Changed
jeffrey conyers Oct 2012
Changed is always for the better.
Altho' the past holds some good.
But when you hear athletes cry about being called soft.
And it's calling out his manhood.
You begins to wonder, if he knows what a man is?
Because words shouldn't control your action.
But they do.

In a world, where people have been called many things?
The word soft shouldn't make a real man enraged.
My , how time has changed?

If you secure.
Then you're sure of your manhood.
You don't need clarification.
Or anyone to support your view.
You alone should know you.

But this generation is a learned group.
That hadn't faced the toughest of others generation.
They been catered.
They been spoiled.
And they been fools.
To let a simple comment create havoc.
My, how times has changed?

With this new technology.
And new constant creation.
We see things that amazes past generation.

Where respect was a guided skill?
We wonder about these we see today.
That feels respect should just be given to them.
Then many have never worked hard to earn.
My, how times has changed.

It's true.
The more things changes.
The more.
It stays the same.
Still, I like those good old days.
Well, I'm not so sure.

Steve Harvey's Wisdom
jeffrey conyers Jan 2013
Steve Harvey, a man with wisom.
Or a man women needs to advise them.
When in truth they are no better then the guys pursuing them.

It's not that the women have the candy and the cookies.
To make a man hungry.
They just have the sweets to make a aspiring lover weak.

What a man seek?
A woman do too.
What a man need?
A woman do too.
And if they agree to compromise on interest.
Then, who's really the fool?

Women doesn't always come forward with truth.
While many women knows, many men truly do.

If only *** he seeks.
He speaks it to you.
Especially early in the morning when they're talking to you.

He hints.
He beats around the bush.
You hear it.
And wants to request it.
But you're afraid too.
So, it's not like you don't know at that time, why he's talking to you.

Steve harvey, has gotten rich off a movie and a book.
Except, it hadn't changed minds of many.
Who will use what they got?
To get a man hooked.

Interested parties works their skills to achieve their destiny.
And no book can deny this.
When the truth says everything.

We know people loves to say making love.
When only *** was involved.
All because it sounds a lot like less harm.

Society doesn't adjust the rules of love.
Itt's the people that's seeking it.
Who really does?

Read advice from a love experts.
Love doctors too.
And they only mirror that men are speaking about things they use to do.
And , this includes Steve Harvey too.

Stressed.
Depressed.
With lack of sleep.
All because I let love make a fool of me.
I'm heartbroken.
Feeled with words left unspoken.

Why do I hold on to this hate.
When it wasn't just me making this mistake.

Mine was in loving someone I thought loved me.
But I found out that wasn't meant to be.

Treat Yourself To Happiness
jeffrey conyers Aug 2012
If you feel your worth isn't being acknowledge.
Then find ways to made it brighter.
If you feel your love is being taken for granted.
Make a change.
Just rearrange many things.

For instance.
I can say sweeter words to win your heart.
Even say words to tear your lover down.
Except, it would be totally selfish.

But I can ask you too.
Treat yourself to happiness.
Whether it includes me or not.
Treat yourself to happiness.

If the joy that once was there.
Has faded away.
Understand within your mind.
Nobody can ever make you stay.
They might intimidate.
Or use their insecurity to bully you.

But eventually common sense will guide you.
To treat yourself to happiness.

You alone knows what you deserve.

And you need someone to turn too.
Or just a shoulder to lean upon.

Solely out of my love for you.

There are times in our lives.
When words of comfort is needed.
Then sometimes words aren't needed at all.

When your heart is mine.

Anonymously
jeffrey conyers Nov 2012
They that speaks so openly about things.
Seems to hide in the shadows of fear.
While speaking anonymously.

They admit.
They hadn't been approved to speak about the matter.
But sources seems to seek attention anonymously.
Even, in this case concerning us.

And before we knew it.
We was at the center of attention.
While the one that's speaking is barely known.

What people needs to know?
We can tell.
Unlike the whistleblower speaking unofficially about us.
jeffrey conyers Jun 2013
Doctors, acts too grand for themselves.
Many patients rather not see them.
And avoid going to visit them.

The one that smiles the moment she  enters the room.
Send off vibes that says a lot.
We can tell if the moment will be exciting one.
Or one you rather stay away from.

They are the customer service of kind.
Who goes the distance a good majority of time?
Who sometimes goes unappreciated?
For the many things they do.

Request them.
And many are there.
Doctors , are a strange type character.

When you compare the two.
One, just don't seems to get their due.
Because it's the doctors who we give that honor too.

We're in love for the long run.
Not willing to quit.

When one's hurt.
We both hurt.
When one's happy.
We're both happy.
When one's blessed.
We both are blessed.

We're not afraid to testify about it.
Or shout out our love for one another.

From the way we act.
We're just real.
And that's the sincereness they see in us.

We Need..

We need to quit seeing this world in a liberal or conservative view.
And adjust to a world better for the people.

Fools, which we all are.
Fall for this political stylizing conservative values.
Heck, they cheat.
They lie.
They racist more.
And dictated to by the church.
That's how they get you.
Women realize it's men perspectives being taught.
Which is why a woman might never be Pope.
It will shock the people.
Especially that religion.

Heck, Barack Obama shocked the world.
Then anything possible.

We need to stop seeing it from a liberal view.
Then it mainly because of liberals you able to do the things you do.
Conservatives not big on change.
They stuck on this Mayberry theme.
Still highly afraid of change.

But one thing for sure, they love to call out liberalism quick.

We need to halt seeing this world from and black and white view.

Police Lives Matters
jeffrey conyers Dec 2014
If those that was wrong was convicted.
Then many wouldn't protest the verdict.
Or have to say police lives matter.

All lives matters, in terms of human respect.

Too many times crooked cop exist because the good cops refuses to report them.
So they go on scheming money from the drug dealers.
Many with their own stories to tell themselves.
Yes, a shake down many citizens knows so well.

Yes, police lives matters.
Simply cause of the danger of the job.
But you have a few shaky ones quick to pull the trigger.

Who don't know the excuse used constantly?
Which is "I felt threaten for my life".
Even if shot forty feet away.
And the object in hand requires them to be inches closer to harm them.

Most juries are sympathy cases to law enforcers.
Especially when the evidence convicts them.
And you hear a not guilty verdict.

For every innocent victim abused , killed by mistakes.
Their life was just as important too.
And we hardly hear them crying "their lives matter".

Yes, police lives matters.
Not because of the job.
But because some went the distance to severe and protect.
And was wise on when to use their assigned weapon.

The Safe Neighborhood
jeffrey conyers Mar 2013
It's funny that those that lives in the best of town.
Find many ways of opinions to put the poor side down.
Only if we check their back ground.

They point out the crimes that seems to run rapidly.
When many of the same things happens in their neighborhoods.

Sure they have up the crime watching signs.
But they gets robbed by their very own neigbors child.
Yes, only if we check their back ground.

Then we would see that there's no safe neighborhoods.
Because all have embellezers and wannabe thugs.

They might be business executive or simple hustlers.
They all share a common bond.
Except it depends on your side of town.

Strange when the rich seems to face justice.
They then try to call upon all their powerful connection.
The mayor, the governor, maybe a judge or a lawyer.

The rich just hates to be exposed.
Because they realize they no better than those they call poor.

The safe neighborhoods are just a smoke screen.
Where many lives according to their dreams?
Scandals, are better in their communities.
Watch them gets better attention then you possibly could think.

Except, when it comes to the news.
Then you find out the rich wealthy folks knows them too.

The group that crys about the public right to know.
Seems to sit upon stories they should have reported days ago.
The group that hides behind secured gated fences.
Fails to realize crime invades them through associates , they came to know.

We , without.
Or those with plenty of.
Shouldn't look down at others.

For, we all have been told.
What goes up?
Eventually will fall.

Judge not, if you won't judge yourself.
Because when push comes to shove.
We must turn to one another.

Obviously, many of us did.
The bigots refuse to acknowledge it.
Although we weren't.

Nothing about the redheaded clown fool us.
All his connection seems to be corrupt.
And now they turning color like the rainbows.

Still, the foolishness continues on.

When you defend a communist based country which your money seems to have been built.
But tear down your own agents of the best.
You were only fooling yourself.

Now your lawyer became wise.
He has a family with he mustn't cut his ties.
Your FIXER is a corrupt guy.
Not only him many others falling by the waste side.

Run Trump Run.
The feds are coming, the feds are coming.
The supporters that hated upon the best-qualified woman.
Now trying to defend this fool even more.

And look at his second in command.
He makes no sense.
Standing in the background like a fool too.

Cause the redheaded clown found him a flunky and a fool.
But this CONGRESS  that attacked President Obama now facing their own election drama.

We aware now that Obama always stood taller than the clown.
Even those against Hillary must admit they didn't want a woman running the country.

Democrats women are more outspoken.
I can't say it's in their DNA.
But their spouses let them say what they have to say?

Can't say much about this first robotic lady presently in the white house.
We know in some opinions only she seems to have a husband.
Who's a louse?

Run President Run.
We were very aware you were dumb.
Run, run, run but you show can't hide.

Why Do Crime Exist?
jeffrey conyers Feb 2014
Why do crime exist?
It's the community.
Who seem to accept it?

Afraid to report it.
Love to complain about it.
Even blaming law enforcement.

Who need every law abiding citizen assistance?

We aware that nobody's perfect.
Except we can't let criminals install fear within us.

Even if it's your son, daughter, friend , or cousin.

Oh, it affect all of us.
Especially the repeat offenders.
Who seem to love being held?
Or having their name linked to bail.

There's nothing great about being linked to a number.
Which you will be assigned within the correctional walls of prison.
Where you're not guarantee to receive any visitors?

Why do crime exist?
Simply because a few idiots seem to tolerate it.
Then complain to the politicians.

Who address the issues?
Then becomes linked to the problem.
When they personally commit a crime.
Then complain, they shouldn't have to serve time.
In other words.
When it's them, we should turn a blind eye.

Who made you become a ******, robber , murderer or embellezzer?
Or a ******* besides bad decision.

The world could be so much better.
If we decide to fight crime.
Don't complain about those legally with guns.
They mostly for defense to keep from being fronted with harm.

But don't cry foul.
When your child meets death from a gun trying to rob someone.

It is, what it is?
And this have nothing to deal with the second amendment.

For the gifts that they exchange.

Comfort women.
An old trade that many doubt will go anywhere.

Men are pursuers of lust.
And the comfort women are the prize.

Money attracts.
Women gives back.
Men are fools.
And the comfort women are the tools.

We can arrest them.
We can expose them.
But at the end of the day.
They relaxed a man somewhere along the way.

Be it the businessman.
Be it the husband.
Or another woman's lover.
The comfort women knows all about them.

Some write books deleteing the names.
Just to protect the good name of the high powerful.
Who hides truth in many ways?

Soldiers been there.
Cowboys went too.
And I hate to say it.
Their biggest distractors the ministers too.

The one that suppose to put moral values in you.
Which proves many aren't better then us.

Yes, comfort women.
Doing the same thing that women in marriages does.

We  should act better.
Except, we be only fooling ourselves.
Cause the athletes used money to attract the women they have.
No play.
If you can't pay.
We can hide behind lies.

The Visitors
jeffrey conyers Sep 2018
There they were in their own land.
Then came the visitors and captured them.

Enslaved them to take to another land.
Without choice, they were kidnapped.

Treated harshly, whipped and abused.

Totally confused by things that occurred.
In truth, they didn't have a choice in coming to this new world.
They lost their family, friends, and tribe heritage.
Thanks to the visitors.

In this new world, they eventually came.
Just to be unpaid slaves to the visitors.

Treated like property on the auction block.
To be hired out to various selected function.
By the visitors.

Some ran away to freedom and some made the attempt.
Just to hindered by the slave house servant.
Who had it slightly better?
Then those in the field.

Laws enacted to state slaves had no rights.
Still thanks to a few free slaves and some that weren't they continued to fight against the visitors.

Soon, many lost completely their given names.
Often taking on the visitors last name.
Women slaves, ***** and men hung, whipped more and shot by the gun.

Mmmm make you aware they the visitor's nothing without a gun.
So we see why they favor the second amendment?

Now, here we are in modern times.
Still surrounded by the visitors perspective racist views.
Who only aware of partial history?
Cause many white schools avoid the truth.

Like scriptures, we get an edit down view.
Especially if it places the visitors in a bad light.

To some, it's because of the creeping and the sneaking.

Which label us the judgmental people.
Until the script is turned back upon us.

Yes, we still have the try and truth.
Who lives by that taught golden rule?
If you can't say nothing good.
Then don't say anything at all.

We talk about people affairs.
We talk about the wayward child.
We talk about the interracial couple.
We talk about those unmarried with a child.
We talk the bigots we know.
We talk about the political candidates.
We talk about those that talks about us.
And then we go into a defense mode
Cause , we don't want others judging us.

Although , we  are apart of the judgmental people.
Ministers, are no better than us.
They talk about the sinners in the scriptures.
In lessons they use to teaches us.

Will it ever end?
I guess not, as long as we, have the judgmental people in society.
Which I guess includes me.

The cameras do too!
But, its the thrills of being followed that scares you.

For, if you're not doing wrong.
Then worry not.

The camera's like a clock.
It works!

Saga of A Black Man
jeffrey conyers Nov 2013
News, news, news.
Why are you constantly the subject of the evening news?
Why is it a reminder of saga of a black man?

Inner city heartache.
Inner city heartbreak.
And we wonder , if the story is bias.
When they pointing out a black male troubles.

A hard honest worker trying to earn a dollar.
Just to be accustom by a no good robber.
A man refusing to live honestly.
Oh, saga of a black man.
When the news seems to be showcasing them.

Sure we could complain and states it completely wrong.
Sure we say  it.
But when it seems to be youthful fools.
What is anyone suppose to do?

We can't say that its hard.
When we are are struggling to stay afloat.
But constant robbery of hard working folks.
Just won't be tolerated.
Yes, this is written about the saga of a black man.

Ministers preaching, but afraid to guide.
Teachers teaching, but many refuses to abide by the rules
Then dropping out and using any means to survive.
Again, saga of a black man.

Those that good in our society.
Gets lumped together will these fools for no apparent reason.

Gangs intimidating and harassing a few.
Because many don't intimidate those that stand their ground.
They know the odds they will be laid down.

We  could say its because of fatherless homes.
Except many has  a father to call their own.
Its just many trying to think they are grown.
Yes, saga of a black man.

Life is what you make it.
So don't get upset when your son is locked away.
Its just the price they must pay.

And they realize all their power are gone.

Patience(You Got To Have It)
jeffrey conyers Sep 2012
You got to have patience.
In any situation you face.
You got to have it.

Upon the states and city streets.
Where road rage is driving people to be fools?
Patience.
You got to have it.
Rushing to get anywhere.
Does nobody's any good.

We learned from good advisers.
That patience is a virtue.
And many times.
You wish people would try to require it.

Who rush a employer?
When you in need of a job.
When it's a job you want to get hire.

Patience.
You got to have it.

In this fast pace society's that turns the world.
Do you rush along?
Or slowly moves to your own tune.

Life is for enjoying.
As knowledge deals with knowing.
Patience.
We just got to have it.

Accepting Applications
jeffrey conyers Dec 2012
Oh, you have a great guy.
Showing interest in you.
Trying his best to show case his best qualities to you.
Then you say.
You're accepting applications.

You're just seeking the best of the best.
Whoever that might be?
Which in my mind is me.

All your suitors inform you of their greatness.
All the things they can do for you.
Except you're aware of my abilities.
While you're accepting application.

In the process.
I do notice those with financial benefits stands at the top.
So do seek them cause of the wealth involved.
And if you do.
Then I don't see love.
But , what you see as rewards?

You're simply should say, now hiring.
Cause if they don't make it through the probation period.
Then they will hear that phase, I had to let you go.

It's been nice.
Except you're not needed anymore.

Tripping
Tripping
Tripping upon your love.

I go through the day with you on my mind.
Nothing worrying about a single thing.
Every time I think of you.
It brings a smile unto  my face.

Just tripping, tripping, tripping upon your heart.

You a savior of God's grace.
Who earned a special part in my life?
That others just can't break even if they try.

Cause I'm in love and tripping.
Just tripping upon your love.

When something is good.
You just want more of it.
And you refuse to have anyone else limit it.

The Foot Prints of God
jeffrey conyers Feb 2011
I could be Batman , with the best layed out plans.
And I still couldn't solve the crime.
And Sherlock Holmes could be on the trail and he still be lagging behind.

We would be following footprints until we get a lead.

I could be Green Lantern just using my lantern ring.
To guide me by the light.
And Superman could join in too.

And, we are still be searching for you.

I could request the asistance of Wonder Woman and Wonder Man.
While hoping they be a big help.

But then Spawn might come along.
And give us too much help.

I would call upon Spiderman and the Hulk.
But they seems to have the worst, of luck.

So, I keep following those footprints a little more in hope, of finding you.
Because in you Jesus stands my reason of  glorifying you.

You are no idol or a fake king.
Like those I didn't name.
Your presence represent Power in the Holy Spirit name.
And, if there one hero that deserves undying fame.

It has to be the Lord God, who created every single thing.

I Stand Alone
jeffrey conyers Jul 2012
I stand alone.

I might not ever be the bravest soul you know.
But you will notice my strength.
And that I stand alone.

Notice when as a group you challenge wrong.
Its mainly because of one standing out front to complain.
Many watch and turn away.

I stand alone.
If justice is what I seek.
Even in High Noon the movie.
We saw a whole town come across weak.

I stand alone.
A bully only wins.
When you don't challenge them.

Even in our terrible historical past with race.
We find many that stood alone.
Jesus had his mutiple friends and foes.

But sometimes.
We know he stood alone.

Strength comes from within.
Find it.
And you'll forever win.

The Meanest Folks
jeffrey conyers Jan 2013
The meanest folks.
Wants to be the one to tell you how to live your life the most.
Yes, the church folks.

They claim the women are very exposed.
But they aren't the one that purchase her clothes.
And if truth be told.
The biggest sinners of sinful ways wear a tie.
Many church women just doesn't testfiy.
That the brother that holding your hand.
Wants to give you his blessing in his pants.

Women are the attraction that many men seeks.
We know they have the goods to make a man weak.
Whether dressed provocative.
It doesn't matter because a man of lust would still want them.

There dress could be way down to their feet.
There's still a man that wants a peek.
Women sometimes, ae there worst enemy.
Because they buy into anything some men say.

She shouldn't be wearing that.
She knows better.
Oh, no she didn't.
We know the words they like to men.
Even when men agree.

We just must remember, why we call them sneaky?

Parable(Church Dress Code)
jeffrey conyers Oct 2015
With sandals and a robe the power of the message was passed.
They didn't decide the higher authority was better than those with less.
They was during what was requested?

The minister's preached.
While some seated reacted to the message.

He glanced.
He complimented those in the pew.
But with a firm tone, he stated this message was address to who?

Who?
Turn up their nose to the homeless man or woman seated next to them.
Without understanding these lost souls have came for the word.

Who?
Sit and whisper about clothes that some comes to church in to attend.
He pointed out Christ saw the lost souls as friends.

And not basing it upon church attendees apparel.

But we know many people that the minister speaks about.
Especially when some leaders cries give the lord your best.

Then long before fancy clothes enhances anyone image.
God knows your heart.
After all He alone is God.

He states, and with truth.
The treatment of others says a lot about you.

Church dress codes is nothing but what you see it to be?
Those with a sincere heart to live accordingly.
Doesn't need expensive suits and dresses.
Doesn't need to drive high price cars.

Cause back in the day.
A mule got many to many places.

Anything God placed upon here with love for another.
Must always remember not to judge their sisters or brothers.

If you judging them according to clothes.
Cause false prophets dress well and fool many constantly.

He took off his suit.
He took off his tie.
And removed his shoes.
And asked, what makes him better than the ones seated next to you?

Psychological
jeffrey conyers Jul 2014
I'm sure, its psychological just besides physical.
Cause I get so emotional just talking about her.

I don't need to pay anyone to analyze me.
For I'm very aware of, what ailing me?

Love always been a controlling form of humanity.
Where one tries to dictate a variety of things?

So, I write.
Write what about her keeps pulling me into her drama.
She's my woman.
More than a so called baby mama.
Just the term alone seems completely dumb.

It's not suiting to anyone.
Which makes it psychological to those that know me.

The mind operates like a computer screen.
Never aware when it will crash.

PROTEST
jeffrey conyers Sep 2017
When you see any protest.
It's for a reason.
We can't be selected to when and how time?

Unions, full of dedicated hard workers protest for better pay.
Teachers, protest for similar things.
And the first amendment gives you that freedom to do it.

Sure, many loyal scarers won't join the protest.
Best believe many got better treatment and pay for those that do.

What group?
What folks constantly agree about anything?

None is the complete answer.
Even churches can't agree upon scriptures of their doctrine.
Many protests against ministers for various reasons.

Against hype presidential fools living in his dreamland.
But many only know the second amendment to bear arms.
But then many of them aren't very smart.

If they can't comprehend injustice protest against abusive officials with guns.

Simply Kissin' Cousin
jeffrey conyers Aug 2012
Living in the country.
On a simple country road.
Is truly the place to be.
Don't matter the size of the town.
People just let you be.

The air is less polluted.
Like in most big city.
Not that I'm putting them down.

But, while we're country.
We just act a little silly.
While city's folks acts like clowns.

We might not have a lot of crime.
We do have the best scenery.
But sometimes the country folks gets wild.

You might say.
That we are about the same.
Have you ever notice?
The way certain kinships would love to trade places.

And
We think we're better than one another.
I guess we are simple kissin' cousins.

Money Mississippi
jeffrey conyers Jul 2014
What did he do?
That would cause two fools to act out this crime.
Over something he did or didn't do.

Where was the justice?
What was the honor is his death?
For two to admit they killed him over an alleged whistling.
And faced no punishment.

Money, Mississippi, your legacy is sealed.
Concerning the death of Emmett Till.

Cowards, always act brave in hurting a child.

His death still is a reminder of unwarranted injustice.
When you leave the power to see those in charge make the right decision.

Then they wonder.
Like many supporters do.
When years later the law comes after you.

And often disagree.
Just take notes it's for a reason.
Many loves one another unselfishly.
And stay together more than those that disagree.

If Given A Choice
jeffrey conyers Jun 2013
If given a choice.
Would I rather be Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck?
One, who's squeaky?
Or the one that speaks gibberish?
But sounds like he's cursing you out.
I have to think about that.

If given  a choice.
Would I rather be Batman or Superman?
One, that clever.
Or the one that's brave?
Always looking out to save the day.
Sounds like a Mighty Mouse phase.

If given a choice.
Would I like to be president?
Or one of those insane Congressmen?
Well, both say and do things according to their will.
Proving they not representing any of us.

If given a choice.
What would I rather be?
Would I rather be you?
Or simply be me.

It don't take a genius to know.
That by staying inside myself.
I chose to be myself.
Cause I don't need the problems of anyone else.

I don't dream.

I take advantage of every opportunity afforded me.

My failure will be my own
If my success don't become my goal.
The world is mine to behold.

And once, I'm at the top.
My kindness will continue to be felt.
I believe in the phase help those that needs help.

I will pray.
I will hope.
And thanks those that helped me along the way.

While knowing about myself.
I don't dream.
I accomplish.
For failure isn't apart of me.

It just shouldn't be.

I envision being your Superman.
With the power to protect your heart.
Like him.

In my mind.
I visualize being Green Arrow.
With my arrow and bow aimed at your heart.
Because like Cupid noticed during his time..
I selected you to have my love.

In my dreams.
I thought about Wonderman.
Which man doesn't want a Wonder Woman.
One that's amazing from head to toe.

In my heart.
I guess I could be Spiderman.
Just catching you within my web trap.
Just pulling you closer.

In my soul.
I just wants to connect to you.
The way many impressive heroes do.

It could be the police.
The fire department workers.
Or just a Good Samaritan.

Whatever style of hero you seek?
I wants you see them all within me.
Because you so unselfishly give your heart to me.

Accepting Growth
jeffrey conyers Feb 2011
Death is done for a reason.
And like life that's born.
It doesn't contain to a particular season.

But, from those losses that affect our lives.
You God is judging us to see the way we survive.
Strength comes from within.
Some can accept yor decisions.
Other want theirs to end.

Some understand this will eventually happen.
Because none of us live forever.
We live by your plans.
And we ALL die by your plans.

But while we are here.
Even for a little while.
We should be thankful to you giving us that chance.

Reflections is a sign of growth.
Where we see children grow right before our nose?
And our elderly grow gracefully.

It seems our live is a chameleon.
Where as we age we head back if older?
And the young comes more responsible as they aged.

Life, a reversal where we depend more on the youth for care?
Like we did them when they was a child.

So death will come one day.
We just don't know when, how or the way?
But, we still must accept growth.

Whether young or just getting old.

He Stand Accused

For six years you violated your vow.
Soaking up lust of a woman of your choice.
When you had a spouse at home.
Who could have kept you comfortable?
When you felt alone.

Now, you facing the hardest test of your life?
Was you wrong?
Was you right?
As justice judge you tonight.

He stand accused of being a fool.

Did she accuse you for revenge?
Because you wouldn't leave your woman.

To some, it's strange that after six years of an affair.
That she , now accuse you of taking advantage of her.
Many has falling and failed to rise.

Except, within your case.
Many believe you will survive this crisis.
