I may not give you flowers
           but I can give you honesty..
I may not give you chocolates
           but I can give you loyalty..
I may not always be by your side
           but you're always here in my heart..
I may not be romantic
           but I'm always yours..
I may not be your dream guy
           but I just simply love you
Lights off, ma bad-*** homies are juz drank,
buh then I saw ya dancing in da club.
Ma head was blown, let's kick it!
Cuz ya could be ma tight moll,
o' let's juz put a bullet
on the clock in these tight walls.

If I'm wit ya,
ma heart could fly so high like a G6,
Imma be glad if ya be mine
tho I ain't da niftiest sheik.
And if loving ya could take ma life
to da street, cuz of a set trippin,
then ya could be a flower
on ma Chicago Overcoat on ma big sleep.

Miss me wit dat! Ma bad,
buh I ain't gonna take ma words back,
I ain't no good, buh Imma gangsta poet
juz a poet wit rhyming words as AK,
so Imma put sum shizzle down
and write what it means.

To me love is gangsta, family is gangsta,
loyal is gangsta, if that's not gangsta,
I don't wanna be gangsta.

O' ma sheba, wazzup!
Let's show 'em what is real luv.
Then luv me less, until ya luv me more
and let's live as gangsta poets
in this gangsta world.
I'm trying to be a Gangsta Poet. It's really hard though. I'm trying, trying trying. My friend, jerelii told me to make some of this poem in response to hers. Well, Chuck started this and I don't know if he would like this one. I don't know how to be this so-called gangsta. This is just a poem, to the rappers out there, I wrote this just for fun.
The smile of the sunset appears to be my only way
To a moonlit love sheltered by your warm embrace,
I could not promise much, but if just you believe in us
There would be peerless fireworks written in our eyes.

Every breath I breathe is for the life I make for you,
And my endeavour is labelled by your lovely egos;
I could not promise much, but if you just believe in us
We could move mountains into the midst of the ocean.

Love has finally found the road, to which it has to be ours,
Everything I need is you, for the rest of the loving hours;
Your name is tattooed on my mind, I would never resist,
And you are the only reason for every breath I breathe.

In the evening twilight,
where my love's awakening dream
would travel far across the heavens
to beseech a heart before
the waning of the moon;

And that if heavens would grant me wisdom,
from the deepest thoughts of every soul;
and if this love conquers the moonlit night
within all that is black and white
is that which sits behind our dreams,

Clinch my eyes from mournful tears,
solitude is all I behold, if our love disappears;
I would bestow nothing
but the resemblance of truth
to the heart, where my dying days belong.

~Thank you Ma'am Neva Flores for the progress of this poem.
My soul saunters in a separate way,
yet and gone,
Way into the wilderness,
where my heart always hunts;
Seeking for a Footstool,
for my maimed feet of my childhood,
Upon falling into the cold fire of wrath;
I misconstrued.

My soul saunters in a separate way,
yet and gone,
Distance may alter me,
but of becoming empty and alone;
Be home after that Spirit of Forgiveness
will be regained,
The war has left my mind,
but I could not still find the ending.

My soul saunters in a separate way,
yet and gone,
I pray. I call for Jesus for saving me
from this poignant Poison;
His amazing grace will evermore
stand against all the waves,
My soul saunters in a separate way,
upon leaving my destined grave.

Unraveling views emanated from a glaring Light,
Silhouetted rainbows were of colors of black and white;
Trying to dis-remember the past on living in a lonely gray,
And my knees convey all of my solemn apologies.

Take me with you, my Lord, and I shall be healed;
Your every word kisses the pain from afar — I kneel.
You will be a fortress, and I will be safe on your massive walls,
And my knees convey all of my solemn apologies.

In Your undying Arms, I found my refuge and strength,
I will behold — though this ransomed world will be shaken;
I will stay — though mountains will be carried into the sea,
And my knees convey all of my solemn apologies.

Jesus, You ceased the waging war between myself,
I am a sinner; confusions parched the rivers of my beliefs,
Yet I came to you, kneeling, with broken vows and promises,
And my knees convey all of my solemn apologies.

Forgive me my Savior.

I behold no ordinary affection dissembles on your eyes,
And I shall take you, dear, to the paradise;
I once dreamed of you, now you are my reality
For you are every woman in the world to me.

Our language diverged for one word we call, love;
And I love you; always will, and always have.
Never that smile will die on your rosy lips
For everything is perfect when you came.

Time  has no meaning if I do not have you here,
And forever, I will fill the gaps of your fingers,
No reason for us to walk on separate ways
For I will be the wind on your broken wings.

I behold no ordinary affection dissembles on your eyes,
And I shall take you, dear, to the paradise;
You are now a castle built on my brain
For you are every woman in the world to me.

My poem illuminates the night like a golden moon,
like fireflies on the trees, and the love I ever owned;
constructed feelings, somehow are still unexplained,
like bubbles of morning air, how it kissed my skin.

It's not how our hearts intertwined all of the sudden,
but how our language diverged; beautifully spoken,
and when my mind engorges reality, so slow, so slow,
that's when I write those lovely words only for you.
Thank you JOHN MAHONEY for giving such helpful feedback. I hope this gets better. :D

I am him. He is me.

I looked at him, wondered ---
Does he ever feel the same?
He has my eyes, my nose,
my lips, my hair,
everything from me.
But I wondered,
Does he ever feel the same?

I touched him, he also touched me.
I talked, he also talked,
but I can't hear his voice.
He could predict my actions;
If I laugh, cry,
weep, and smile,
he always imitates me.
But I wondered,
Does he ever feel the same?

We are friends;
the truth and the lie.
Sometimes enemies;
but if I'll **** him, I'll die.
I wondered,
Does he ever feel the same?

I am him. He is me.

If only we exchange worlds...

Sir
Sir, I'm in front of you to tell that
     I do love your daughter,
And I never have a rehearsal to what words
     to be uttered.
Sir, I'm here to be transparent
     about a love I found,
I'm just nervous, so please don't feel
     my voice to be unsound.

Sir, I'm asking your princess' hands;
     your princess is your precious gem:
I love her not just because I love her;
     I will make her my queen.
Sir, she stained my heart with love;
     sir, I hope you understand
I will never leave her alone, we'll be together
    walking on the strands.

Sir, please don't cast away your eyes
     from this name I owned,
I never have a replica of my love for her,
     your daughter is the only one I long.
Sir, the fact is irrevocable, I love her
     and she loves me
And the church will be the witness
     about these things I'm saying.

If I need to kneel on the floor
     and beg for the chances,
Sir, I will never doubt to do it, if this
     can only change your mind.
Sir, I have never been like this,
     I honestly love your daughter sir
And my life is worthless without her
     near by my side.

When the beautiful day comes, I hope
     you'll be with your daughter on the aisle;
I will offer my life to her sir,
     and I will take care of her every time.
Sir, I will marry your daughter,
     so please let me wander the world with her
I can't truly afford to lose her,
     and only be drowned on memories.

Sir, your answer will matter the most,
     if I should gain or lost;
But sir, I will fight my love for her
     even the skies turned to be the worst.
She's my everything, and I need to be
     transparent about what I feel.
Sir, I will marry your daughter,
     can we have now your blessings sir?
