I could steal your car... Before you stole my heart.... Thats when I felt "Our" love truly start.... I looked like hell....My eye black from fights... Before my darkness was engulfed in your light.... My weapons of hate kept always near.... Being with you... I forgot all my fear...... My backwards hat... The way i used to dress..... I must have looked Stupid....... Now i dress for success... Jail wasn't just seeing my crew..... It was a hell that kept me away from you.... My "*******'s!" and Angry stares.... Are now opening doors.... And pulling out chairs The respect I "Earned"..... Being told " I Must..." Means nothing now.... I only want your trust.... Break and enters now a thing in the past... Because you entered my heart and I want that to last.... Loud music to endless Screams..... Are now quiet whispers.... Having you in my dreams.... Being an object of someone elses fear... I know what im scared of... Not having you near... The concrete heart I used to never feel... For the first time feels vulnerable... Open and Real..... All my girls.... My one night stands... I now tell them all .......Im your "Man"..... Ive been stabbed... Beaten.... Ive been shot.... Losing you would hurt worse... Your all i've got.... I no longer see rivals and want to attack... I know that you truly ......"Got my back"..... No more white rags to feel I belong...... Your what ive been missing all along.... No longer do I want a connection to "crime"... I just wanna be with you..... All the time.... I cant believe that your not scared of my past.... I am terrified.... me and you wont last.... Because before you were a "hunny" a "shorty" A "boo" Now I dont have a word amazing enough to describe You... To you I was never a GANGSTER..... I was only ever DAVE... And to me you were an ANGEL... who deemed me worthy to SAVE.....
My first love poem..... Sent from a correctional.... Man that was a different time.....
