Falling in my Dreams
The adrenaline rush,
as my heart is
steady racing,
the ****** and
the speed of it,
my mind is
steady pacing,
covered with
sweat beads,
as I fear of the impact,
as if I am about
to be crushed,
into the ground,
is where I make contact,
with concrete or reality??
OH, THE AWFUL SOUND,
as people gather around,
the fear on people's
faces as I lay still,
a horrifying experience
I don't want to feel,
a scary experience of
a nightmare unseen,
as we I am
frighteningly
aroused from
Falling in my Dreams!!!!!

Alone, with No Friends
When you are
feeling alone, and
when you have NO FRIENDS,
you want the
loneliness to subside, and
come to an end,
like some kind of companionship,
not knowing where to begin,
just yearning for attention,
as the aloneness sets in, but
don't feel down and out
just lift up that chin,
You are a Champion, and
YES!!!,
YOU CAN WIN!!
You are not alone when
you are in Solitude,
There's No issues, or no malice,
Just pure Gratitude!!!
So, Be Grateful that you are all alone,
there is nothing wrong,
with being on your own,
The friends that you have had
have gone astray,
A handful of friends, to me is okay,
Your days will be brighter, and
No Clouds of Gray!!!

When you don't have friends,
When you are successful and you win,
When things you do, go your way,
Is also when so-called friends go astray!!

When you do have money and
they do come around,
When you are suddenly broke and
they're no where to be found,

All you wanted was
a friend to the end, but
All in return, you just
got people that pretend!!

You're the type of
person that'll go all in,
to lend a helping hand,
to a so-called dear friend,

to bend over backwards and
to try help them through, but
you could only do so much,
what more can you do???

Then THEY GET MAD and
START FEELING ALL BLUE,
"I THOUGHT YOU WERE MY FRIEND!!!"
YOU'RE ****,
YOU'RE WORTHLESS,
I CONFIDED IN YOU!!!,

You BETRAYED and DEGRADED ME,
JUST OUT HERE HAVING FITS,
THEY FEEL You're NOT A TRUE FRIEND
BUT A HYPOCRITE,
FROM A FRIEND TO FOE,
TIME TO LET THEM GO!!!

I can't believe you did this,
SOME FRIEND YOU ARE!!,
YOU USE TO BE COOL, BUT
NOW, YOU THINK YOU'RE A STAR!!

I'LL FORGIVE YOU RIGHT NOW,
I WILL NEED TIME TO MEND
AS FAR AS THIS FRIENDSHIP,
THIS FRIENDSHIP HAS TO END!!!

When you don't have friends
When things just aren't the same
When you did me wrong and
you're the one to BLAME,

YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS, and
THEY HAVE DONE YOU WRONG!!!
YOU HAVE A FRIEND IN JESUS,
THROUGH THESE WORDS BE STRONG!!!

I have noticed a Change
Lately, I have definitely
noticed a change,
these times are different now,
things are just not the same,
when we display
our poems, and our writings,
the honor we do not claim,
like they're no longer exciting,
this is really just insane,
as if our works don't matter,
We just mainly want to
change things, and
to make Life more better,
Do our writings bore you??,
or are you just not intrigued??
Is our inspirations and motivation
not something that you need???
do our verses scare you,
We really need to know,
Do our creative word expressions
make you feel very low???
We want to inspire, and
lift you up higher, and
give you encouragement,
that's if you so desire,
are you looking for
a scapegoat,  or a
word to Brighten your day???
or, something that
is personal, and
you would rather not say???
If so, that's okay,
I just thought that I'd ask,
I'm not the type of person
that'll put you on blast
although, it may seem very
harsh and very strange,
I have definitely put to notice
that Things Have Changed!!!!

The FLOORBOARDS ARE WEAK,

while WALKING ALONG THEM,
Is QUIETNESS YOU SEEK.

These FLOORBOARDS are CREAKING,
The sound of MICE are SQUEAKING,
These OLD wooden FLOOR PANELS,
sends ANSWERS YOU are SEARCHING.

These BOARDS TEND TO to CREAK,
The FLOORBOARDS are OLD,
This CABIN has MANY STORIES,
FROM HISTORY TO UNFOLD.

FACED GOOD and BAD WEATHER,
The HOT and the COLD, and
Yet IT'S STILL STANDING,
This CABIN is SO OLD.

It has MANY, MANY YEARS,
The FLOORBOARDS are WEAK,
This CABIN has much HISTORY

Invisible
You treated me
like you couldn't
SEE ME,
You
IGNORED ME,
You
LOOKED RIGHT
THROUGH ME,
You
AVOIDED ME,
It was so PLAIN to
SEE,
You couldn't
CARE LESS
ABOUT ME,
YOU JUST DIDN'T
WANT TO BE
WITH ME!!
I find it
INCREDIBLE,
You acted
as if I was
INVISIBLE!!
WHY DO YOU DO THIS???
You just didn't care,
as if I am
TRANSPARENT,
or not even
STANDING THERE,
But That's OKAY
I will let you BE,
and find someone
who will actually
SEE ME,
I find it REMARKABLE,
In this,
I do BELIEVE,
I will find someone
SPECIAL, and
who will
LOVE AND SEE
ME!!!!
TO YOU I'M
INVISIBLE,
BUT TO HIM I'LL BE

Hopefully
HOPEFULLY, if willing, I will see you again,
HOPEFULLY, This Friendship would never, ever end,
HOPEFULLY, some day l will see you around,
even if I am feeling so low and so down.

Hopefully, I will touch the blue heavenly skies and
spread my wings like the birds so very High,
I am very thankful for whatever life provides, and
the fact the grass isn't always greener on the other side.

MOST DEFINITELY, I will BE THANKFUL of the things I already have,
Accept things as they are, and in this BE GLAD,
I am happy with MY LIFE, and this HAPPINESS IS FREE,
Just to LOVE my WONDERFUL LIFE, and I will CONTINUE TO LOVE ME!!! ❤️

Isolation
ISOLATION is a BLESSING 
even though we 
don't really see it,
Being SEPARATED from 
OTHERS AROUND, 
just to be with 
ONE SELF for a MINUTE.
It's not so bad 
to be BY YOURSELF 
Some people would rather
 BE ALONE.
Being ISOLATED allows you 
to KICK BACK, 
No FRUSTRATIONS from
 others is SHOWN,
It gives you FREE TIME to 
DISCOVER YOURSELF, and
FIND TALENTS that were 
NEVER KNOWN.
with ISOLATION 
 you can BREAKAWAY, 
Have TIME FOR YOURSELF 
MEDITATE and PRAY!!! 
TALK to the LORD about
 your PROBLEMS,
JUST TRUST IN HIM
 HE'S the one 
THAT WILL SOLVE THEM!!!!
Take heed to this writing as your CONFIRMATION!!!!
 This is your 
BLESSINGS IN DISGUISE!!!
 known as
ISOLATION!!!!!

The Outsider
When you are
feeling alone, and
within Solitude,
all on your own,
no one else,
just you,
you feel
like you are
an outcast, and
you are
feeling so blue,
when you have
no friends,
and when you
don't fit in, but
you try to,
when no one
is around, and
you are feeling
so down,
you are
considered an
Outsider, and
on your
face you wear
a frown; but
you are not alone,
just want to make
your day Brighter,
your kindness
is shown,
you should
feel much Lighter,
So, don't feel bad if
you are rejected,
there are others
just like you,
that you could relate
to, and
feel connected,
so, when you
are feeling like
you don't belong,
there are others
that are the same,
so, just be strong,
I am here to
motivate,
encourage,
and Inspire,
Have Faith, and Hope,
Just Lifting you Higher,
Just broaden
your Horizons, and
make your path wider,
Are you
in Isolation???,
Do you feel
like an Outsider???

Betrayal
YOU BETRAYED ME!!!,
HOW COULD YOU??
You STABBED me in the BACK, and
Got me FEELING ALL BLUE,
I AM LOST FOR WORDS,
I AM NOT SURE I SHOULD DO,
WHAT WE HAD WAS SACRED!! and
I TRUSTED IN YOU, but
I WAS ALL WRONG,
NOW, I FEEL LIKE A FOOL,
You Betrayed me!!,
Why can't you just see,
You Left me hanging on a limb,
How could you do this to me???,
This feeling of BETRAYAL,
NO, It does not feel good!!!,
of how you just did me,
This is so MISUNDERSTOOD!!!!,
I STOOD RIGHT BY, and I CONFIDED IN YOU,
I thought you were a TRUE FRIEND but,
You did me wrong and that's not cool,
Therefore, this FRIENDSHIP has to end,
This BETRAYAL and BROKEN TRUST,
has been lost, but
with TIME and PATIENCE, could BE MENDED,
It won't be easy and things won't be the same, the BETRAYAL is on YOU, and
YES!!!
You are the one to BLAME!!!
Just one more thing I'd thought that you should know,
What comes around goes around
YOU WILL REAP WHAT YOU SOW!!!, but
I WILL FORGIVE YOU!!!,
EVEN FEELING SO LOW!!,
BROKEN DOWN AND UNSTABLE,
I AM FEELING SO BAD,
RUNNED DOWN, WORNED and FATIGUED,
BECAUSE OF YOUR BETRAYAL!!!

Some kind of a PLAN,
PRAY OVER IT SINCERELY, and
THEN PUT IT IN GOD'S HANDS!!!!
So, ARE YOU ATTUNED???
Do you TRAVEL the HIGH SEAS???
Do you want to see the WORLD,

Life and Lemons
They say that:
WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU
🍋 LEMONS,🍋
then make
LEMONADE,
If you're LIVING
LIFE AS SIMPLE,
Then in your
HEART,
you got it made.
LIFE can bring
to you
CHALLENGES, DRAMA,
and FRUSTRATIONS, but
with WORK, and AGILITY
produces
HAPPINESS, GRATITUDE,
and
SATISFACTION!!!
LIFE can bring to you
STRUGGLES, but
It'll be OKAY,
Just push through
these HARD TRIALS, and
SUCCESS WILL BE
ON ITS WAY!!!

Envious
Being envious is a strong emotion,
An emotion that is hard to shake,
Seeing something that you can't have,
A feeling that you can't seem to break!!

Although, you are unhappy of others achievements,
you can't seem to shake the feeling,
You are in need of letting it go,
You are in the need of Healing!!

but, sometimes that is hard to do,
You have to confess what is hurting you,
Once you let it go, than you will know,
How to cope with and Be better at dealing!!

A Love that is Lost
If they didn't want you,
then that's okay, because,
You will be Alright,
and you will see
a brighter day,
You shall have
no worries, nor
any dark clouds of gray,
just move on with your life,
cos, you didn't need them anyway,
You thought they were the reason,
that the Sun Shined so Bright,
upon receiving the dreadful feeling,
of darkened, restless night's
What was a time of Affection,
of a Deep, Deep LOVE Connection,
Has turned the relationship sour,
Into a trainwreck of pure Destruction,
So go on and let them go,
if they feel they want to leave,
You will be better off without them, and now, you can finally breathe!!!!

The loud, hollow siren of the ship's horn jolted the sleepy, port town.
She emerged out of the swirling mist like a star making a grand entrance. Only she wasn't a star but a ship that had been missing for the past hundred years...The Lost Ship of the Raving seas docks again after so many years after going extinct. I don't know how  but mysteriously the ship appears out of thin air as the sea mist sets and gives to it a very dark and Gloomy hue other dark seas giving to you chills up your spine. As the Cool air sets in, a frostbite of cold winds in the air, the lost souls of a forbidden ship, dwells within, This ship has History, many years ago, of the dark high seas, and all of the lost souls. The Lost Ship of the Raving seas is the only thing that has happened to the Real Ones that have been taking out of this forsaken world. They may have perished, but their Lost Souls still inherit and dwell upon this Lost Ship!!! 🛳 Legends say: you can still here their screaming souls!!!

She is a raving mad princess, she wreaks havoc in the forest.
You thought Snow White, her sister was sweet and docile,
Well, Snow Black her Evil twin, is wicked and hostile.
I bet you didn't know Snow White had a evil twin,
You barely hear about her because of the evill within.
Snow Black cares nothin but to cause pure Malice,
Her only intentions is to take over the evil queens palace.
She lives deep, deep, deep in the evil forest.
As the Seven Evil Dwarfs march and sing in chorus,
Snow Black let's it be known, She is the real evil queen of the forest.
they March to and fro in the deep Dwarfs mines

The Battles of Life
The Battles of Life,
through sickness, and through health,
through blessings, and good wealth,
all the trials, tribulations, and
everything else,
the wants, and the needs, and
the envious, and the greed,
the feeling of success, and
wanting to succeed!!!
the feeling of hope, the feeling of fear,
the feeling of Challenges, and
the fact that they are near,
don't give in, and don't Cave in,
Stay on the road of
excellency, because
YES!!!
YOU CAN WIN!!!
Keep your eye on the prize,
Keep working for it, and
YOU WILL SEE,
YOU DO HAVE THE ABILITY,
YOU JUST GOT
TO BELIEVE!!!!
AVOID SELFISHNESS, and
CARELESSNESS, and
ALL OF THE ABOVE,
Do your VERY, VERY BEST,
I AM SAYING THIS TO
YOU WITH LOVE!!!!
THE THINGS that we ENDURE,
with AGILITY, and with STRIFE,

Dust off your Shoulders
Pick yourself up and
dust off your shoulders
Keep running this race
While the world gets colder
Don't Give In just Keep on Pressing
If things get Really Tough
It means you're Winning
So, pick yourself up and
dust off your shoulders
Keep your eyes on the Prize
As this world gets colder
So, stand your ground and
Become more Bolder!!!

R - Realizing that you are just not the same
E -Even though we have grown far apart

Daydreaming
DAYDREAMING,
FANTASIZING,
These THOUGHTS so
are SATISFYING!!;
like in a TRANCE,
or even MEDITATING,
your so DEEP in THOUGHTS,
it's like
you're LEVITATING!!!
When you LOSE FOCUS, or
DEEP IN THOUGHT,
COMPLETELY ZONED OUT!!!
while others TALK!!
You're In a DAZE, or UNAWARE,
DAYDREAMING, VISUALIZING
Like you just don't care,
You are not being rude,
or trying being mean
your MIND is just ELSEWHERE
like in a DAYDREAM!!!

We've All been here and done that!!!
The story of Cinderella in
the earlier times, didn't
always have a
HAPPY ENDING,
well, for Cinderella and the Prince, YES!!!  
but for the stepsisters, it was RATHER DISTURBING.
What was told was FANTASTIC, on
the other hand was DRASTIC.
Instead of glass slippers,
it was depicted
SQUIRREL FUR SLIPPERS.
As, gruesome as it sounds,
such a horrid
SITUATION,
the STEPSISTERS
tricked the prince
by inflicting
SELF-AMPUTATIONS.
They did this to
themselves
so, their feet would
fit the SLIPPERS.
But, through the
HEAVENLY DOVES,
the prince realized
the bleeding
of their
SELF-INFLICTED
AMPUTATIONS.
When it was all said and done,
Cinderella was the one,
they had both fell in Love that Night.
The Dove plucked out there eyes, it was not suprise that the Stepsisters have lost their Sight!!!

But, I think that I feel you and
you are the Real One!!
I can Be the one for you!!
We could be together
This Love is so True!!

Love is.........
affectionate,
compassionate,
nothing is no
better than it,
kindness,
fondness,
tenderness,
a beautiful feeling
that we can't resist,
Love is pure, and
does not come amiss,
a happy feeling of
a beautiful bliss,
a heartwarming
feeling that
genuinely exist,
within your mind,
within due time,
It will come
to surface, and
It will be just fine
Love is,
Love is,
LOVE IS,
to me..........
THIS IS WHAT LOVE IS.........

People in your LIFE
Everyone that's in
your LIFE are of
two of these things,
either there
for a LIFETIME, or
RELATION WISE
a FLING,
in your
LIFE FOREVER, or
just for a SPELL,
whatever the
LESSON LEARNED,
just remember:
IT IS WELL.
for those that
STICK AROUND,
are LESSONS in
THEMSELVES,
They will be there
for YOU ONLY, and
NOBODY ELSE,
Those that decide
to STRAY AWAY far AWAY,
JUST LET THEM GO, and
BE ON THEIR MERRY WAY,
Don't give them NO ATTENTION,
nor the TIME OF DAY,
the LESSON from this is:
  they never
ATTENDED TO STAY,
Let go of the YO-YOS,
for they seem to REAPPEAR,
THEY BOUNCE
BACK AND FORTH
AND THEN they DISSAPPEAR,
BEWARE OF THE NEEDY, just
(ONLY IF THEY ARE IN NEED),
BE CAREFUL OF
THE GORGERS, for
THEIR FORENAME
IS GREED!!!
I am ONLY SAYING THIS
to KEEP YOU AWARE,
Keep a lookout for these types
I am saying this to show,
I CARE,
THE REAL PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE
Will stay,
NO DOUBT,
In closing of this writing,
did I leave
ANYTHING OUT????
There are PEOPLE
THAT DO LOVE YOU,
I HOPE THAT I AM RIGHT,
These PEOPLE
are KEEPERS,
THE TYPES TO BE IN YOUR LIFE!!!

Bitter (Free Verse)
I feel so BITTER, and
I DEF KNOW WHY,
This WORLD is so COLD,
That it makes me wanna CRY,
There is so much HATE,
AS THESE DAYS GO BY,
When YOU'RE TRYING to
ENDURE IT, and
It makes you wanna SIGH,

NO MATTER the TRIALS
IT WILL BE ALRIGHT,
These TROUBLES WON'T LAST,
Through the DARKNESS there is LIGHT,
I AM BITTER RIGHT NOW, but THAT'S OKAY,
My SUNSHINE will BREAK
through these DARK CLOUDS,
AND SHINE AGAIN ONE DAY,
I'm just PRAYING IT ALL
GETS BETTER AND THE
BITTERNESS GOES AWAY

These TIMES HAVE CHANGED,
PEOPLE are SO DERANGED
It's makes NO SENSE
It's just so INSANE, but
THE DEAR LORD KNOWS,
AS I CONTINUE to FLOW,

These SKIES of BITTER GRAY,
Will become SUNNY BRIGHTER DAYS,
I BELIEVE my LORD AND SAVIOR
WILL MAKE A WAY,
THROUGH THIS DARK, DARK WORLD
that is EVIL and SO COLD,
PEOPLE ARE SO BOLD,
and EVEN THROUGH THESE
TRYING TIMES,
BLESSINGS WILL UNFOLD!!!

So, TRUST IN HIM,
HE WILL MAKE A WAY,
THE BITTERNESS WILL SUBSIDE,
PRODUCING HAPPIER DAYS!!!

If these walls could talk,
many stories will unfold,
From the past, present and future,
Is history being told!!

Just look around and just see,
The Vintage, and the quality,
of how long things have lasted,
To this day, is well kept beautifully!!

A House that's of the old,
a lineage, from way back when,
for many generations have come and gone,
that has so much history within!!

If these walls could talk,
they would tell you,
about your ancestral, historical past,
It is now passed down to your era,
So, that your Ancestry will Last!!

When you have the
NEED FOR SPEED,
FOR THE ADRENALINE RUSH,
Oh, YES INDEED!!!,
Like your feet are
practically off the ground,
You want to go faster, and
You can't SEEM TO SLOW DOWN,
AS IF LIFE is PASSING YOU BY,
You WANNA GO FAST,
Like it's gonna just OVERLOOK YOU,
THEY SAY SATISFACTION DOESN'T LAST,
What exactly are you SPEEDING TO??
The end of the ROAD???
If so, you will hit a DEAD END,
I WOULD SLOW IT DOWN,
IF I WERE YOU!!!,
JUST MAKING A
DECLARATION MY FRIEND,
WHEN YOU HAVE THE NEED FOR SPEED,
THAT HUNGER AND THE GREED,
SUCCESS!!!
IS NOT ON YOUR SIDE, but
YOU STILL TRY TO SUCCEED,
You're are PUSHING YOUR LIMITS,
You are trying to GET FAR, but,
You're starting to SLOW DOWN,
DROPPING LIKE A FALLING STAR,
The PACE and the MOMENTUM,
is how you come to be, because
DEEP DOWN WITHIN YOU........
YOU HAVE THE NEED FOR SPEED!!!

The Truth Be told
there is No
Mystery,
in the sight of the
fact of dealing with
Misery,
It comes and
goes as it please,
Trying to become
your company,
Just tell it
to take a hike,
hit the door,
go away and just flee,
I will not be stressing,
and you can't
have of hold in me,
Why don't you go bug,
sadness, and anxiety!!!
If you so please!!!!

Circle of Friends
Some People
Today
have a
Circle of Friends,
with a
Tight-knit bond,
a Friendship
that never ends,
just to hang out a bit,
to spend
a night on the town,
A Circle of Friends,
a Good feeling to be around,
Your Friends, Associates,
Compadres, and your pals,
just to catch
up with them,
and to socialize
for a while!!!
A small
circle of friends
would do
you some good,
keep your
circle of friends
small, and
as best as you could!!!!!

EXPOSED
You were EXPOSED,
You were caught OFF GUARD,
PEOPLE CAN SEE YOU,
and know EXACTLY
WHO YOU ARE,
your COVER IS BLOWN,
the SECRETS of THE UNKNOWN,
The SUSPICIONS, and ALLEGATIONS
of DISCOVERIES are SHOWN,
because
of THE EXPOSURE,
you are seeking DISCLOSURE,
the world is so COLDER,
people are getting so BOLDER,
The lies that you FACE
are such a DISGRACE
The people of the WORLD
are the critics you FACE
UP In your own world
in your own private zone,
JUST YOU BY YOURSELF
JUST YOU ALL ALONE
Is where you were
DISCOVERED
YOU JUST BEEN
EXPOSED!!!
