When I see you
I tend to smile
Not all day
But for a while
I watch you as you turn around
I remember every single sound
I watch you as you look at me
That’s when I see your beauty
I start to frown when you look away
I guess away is where you’ll stay
I go into a dreamy gaze
In my dream I was in a maze
Having you would be my prize
If I get you is a surprise
Right, left, forward and back
Trying to trace my every track
Boundary here boundary there
Boundaries located everywhere!!!
I touch the side I touch the ground
I try to locate every sound
I hear the birds start to cheep
I only hear one other peep
“Help me, Help me” I hear ahead
“Help me, help me if you can.”
I knew it was her I could only tell
It wasn’t the place nor the smell
It was the sense of my crush in fear
It was a cry only my love can hear
I try my best I sprint ahead
If I was not with you I might as well be dead
I turn the corner and I see
The brightness of her beauty
his calls seem weak
as they fall upon my deaf ears
and echo in the valley

words seem cheap
'cause he whispers he loves me
but i wanted his heart
beating in my hands

my breath feels wasted
as i'm struggling
and your eyes are hurting
when I say your embrace
is the chokehold

i teeter on a cliff's edge
just to feel tears on my neck
it's like the blood
i wanted from your heart

the DNA so similar to hers
as a reminder
you can't feel love at a distance

even if it's there

i'm lost in this insanity
to comfort me

brother, can you really love me?

when i'll never be me?

not until she returns
and i can feel her pulse
in the valley

where the angels take souls
Have you ever met one with a look in their eyes
that could hook fire from the skies
one with focus, balance, honor and force
the type of look that could leave all your dreams with recourse
he's a soul soldier one without remorse.

These eyes that mind
these ties that bind
have no room for compromise
when the sun dies
boom it's all lies

I do it for the name
I'm married to the game
when she leaves I face the trees
and the breeze
and the ******
and know I took pride in my day and wouldn't change it any which way.

And this time I rhyme as a sole soldier
that brings souls closure
to all but my own
I'd give it all and time away to see it any other way
and that about sums up my day to day
so when you see a soul soldier
don't ask him to stay
don't ask him to play
it's not your game he came to slay."
