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!!!

If this is you hold on Your Change is coming


WELCOME TO HELL,
the PLACE of DISCOMFORT,
If you are WORKING
in this ENVIRONMENT,
yeah, you will soon discover.
a place that you hate, and
you really don't want to be,
you would rather be at home,
you would rather flee, and leave.
you are not there to make friends, and
some of them you're not cool,
just working in the environment,
of nothing but pure fools.
their personalities, you have to deal,
some of them you wish would chill,
you want to leave so badly, but
you got to consider paying your bills,
you got bills to pay, mouths to feed,
money is funny, and
the mean green you need,
your job is so MISERABLE,
It is just so UNBELIEVABLE,
This place is so PITIFUL,
you are feeling so INVISIBLE,
it has gotten so bad,
It's got you TURNING HYSTERICAL,
you are so IRRITABLE,
your position is UNBEARABLE,
If you could find a better career,
IT WOULD BE A TREMENDOUS MIRACLE!!!!!
The DEVIL IS YOUR BOSS,
HIS IMPS ARE THE EMPLOYEES,
Just leaving this job behind,
Will give you pure joy, and
to do something that you Love, or
a career you will enjoy,
It would be a BIG CHANGE,
just you wait and see, then
within yourself you will say:
THANK GOD I AM
FINALLY FREE!!!

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!!!!

TRICKY, CONIVING,

so very CRUDE.
People are
DISGUSTED
when you ARE
AROUND,
you can't
BE TRUSTED, and
on this we FROWN.
PEOPLE are CAREFUL,
when you show your FACE.
A TRICKSTER like you,
should  be put IN
YOUR PLACE.
DETRIMENTAL, HURTFUL
EVIL, AND SLY,
Pulling ALL these PRANKS
thinking your GETTING BY!!
To us, it ain't NO MYSTERY,
if you keep this up
YOU'LL be

It's YOU PULLING ALL THE CATASTROPHE!!!
Time for US to put
you out your MISERY!!!
We ALL know

You couldn't

You acted

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

BUT TO HIM I'LL BE

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

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!!

The air is breezy and
blisteringly cold,
The wind chill is high,
The temperature is so bold.

The trees are swaying in the wind,
It's cold outside and its time to go in,
The winds are cold the day is Chilly,
It's so cold outside just call me Chilly *****.

The Sun is out which is such a thrill, but
The Winds are crisp and
it's bringing us the chills,

In lieu of a cold and windy day,
I'll trade it for Sunshine to warm me today!!
The wind is cold but that's alright,
A nice warm comforter will bring me delight!!!

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!!!!

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!!!!!

It's All in your Mind
Just Make up in your mind,
that its gonna be alright,
It's all in how you think,
as your ideas influence foresight?

Just look into the future, and
just start to believe,
It will happen when the time is right,
Just watch and you will see.

It's all within your Thoughts,
It is Deep within your Head,
Your mind is like a garden,
as if tending to your gardening bed.

SO, ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT,
certain thoughts come from time to time,
Just keep the negative ones at bay, because,
IT'S ALL WITHIN YOUR MIND!!!!

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!!!,

BROKEN DOWN AND UNSTABLE,
I AM FEELING SO BAD,
RUNNED DOWN, WORNED and FATIGUED,

This is my series that I Created titled: SCANDALOUS!!!
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!!!

BUT you ALWAYS want to
BLAME THE BUTLER!!!
So, Why ya'll ALWAYS BLAMING THE BUTLER???
How we know that,
YOU DIDN'T DO IT???

How would we know
that your:
BLAMING THE BUTLER to
cover up what you done, or
the weapon you used
to SHOOT was a GUN???
SNUCK UP BEHIND HIM
with RAGE and STRIFE,
and STABBED em in
the back with a
SHARP BUTCHER KNIFE, or

maybe the KILLER
was JEALOUS and PROVOKED,
TOOK A SHARP KNIFE AND
SLIT HIS THROAT!! or
MAYBE THE KILLER
got ANGRY and MAD,
picked up something HEAVY and
HIT EM IN THE HEAD,
BROKE THE VICTIMS NECK and
NOW, THE VICTIMS DEAD or
Maybe their FOOD was
POISONED with TOXICANTS,
Then the KILLER SET IT UP,
to look Like an ACCIDENT,
To get off easily and
PORTRAY AS INNOCENT, or
  the technique that was
used, to DO THEM IN???
There are PRESSURE MARKS
in the throat,
I CALL STRANGULATION!!! or
maybe their victim
was up on the DECK,
got PUSHED OFF the LEDGE, and
FELL TO THEIR DEATH.
There are a lot
of questions that are
running through my mind,

Some are direct,
A, lot of them aren't too kind.
But, with  a lot of investigation,
As my mind steady wonders,
it's a CRYING SHAME!!
it's such a BLUNDER.
We will CRACK THIS CASE,

You NO-GOOD,
DOUBLE CROSSING,
PIECE OF TRASH,
You need a foot to go
straight up your A$$, but
I will let this slide, because
I do have class,
Never thought in my life,
you'd be a
SNAKE IN THE GRASS,
You SCHEMED, you TRICKED, and
STABBED PEOPLE in the BACK,
OTHERS HAD THEIR SUSPICIONS, AND
THAT IS JUST WHACK,
YOUR DECEITFULNESS,
HAD ALL OF US FOOLED,
YOUR TREACHOUS WAYS
WERE DECEITFUL, AND CRUEL,
ALL EYES, ALL SUSPICIONS,
ARE TURNED TOWARDS YOU,
NOW, THAT YOU ARE FOUND OUT,
WHAT ARE YOU
GONNA DO???
LEAVE THE CITY,
DISSAPPEAR,
JUST RUN AND HIDE,
DON'T EVER LET A SNAKE DECEIVE,
OR TAKE YOU FOR A RIDE!!!!

Lost in your Eyes
If I stare into your eyes
 I can see past the stars
beyond the Galaxies
all the way past mars
Within the Oceans
 and towards the Horizons
 In a Complete Trace
Your Love is Amazing
If I get Lost in your Eyes
I can find your Soul

They call her Snow Black and there are seven Evil Dwarfs,
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
To do evil works for the evil Princess would be so fine!!

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!!!

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!!!

DAYDREAMING,
FANTASIZING,
These THOUGHTS so
are SATISFYING!!;
like in a TRANCE,
or even MEDITATING,
your so DEEP in THOUGHTS,

you're LEVITATING!!!
When you LOSE FOCUS, or

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,

I can Be the one for you!!
We could be together

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!!!

I Am in Love with the INVISIBLE MAN,
even though I cannot see,
He transparent and no where around,
Is He even the one for me??

I fell deep for his persona,
He barely makes a sound,
He might be watching me this moment,
As I lay these words on down,

I think about him often,
He stays out of sight all the time,
He rather be left unnoticed, and
To me, I think that is fine.

He not very big on crowd pleasing,
He would rather be left on his own,
Is why he is known as, THE INVISIBLE MAN,
his versatility is certainly shown.

I Am not looking for no Loud man, or
a man thats totally wild, but
someone who is caring, and
concerning, fantastic, gentle and mild.

I am in Love with the INVISIBLE MAN,
People may find it VERY STRANGE, but
It my business and none of theirs,
I hope that he will never, ever change
