I'll love you more than you'll ever know. I swear, with all of my heart
You mean the world to me. I knew that from the start
Now we're growing apart from each other; Our lifestyles just aren't the same
I'd never had thought this would happen to us, but we have only ourselves to blame
I cry knowing your with someone else-- Because it isn't me
Everything I could give to you, Your just to blind to see
If we weren't meant to be together why do I feel this way?
I want to tell you how I feel so badly; I just don't know exactly what to say
Maybe that I love you more than words can explain and your the only one I am needing
But I'm sure you won't know it's you even though it's this that you are reading
Maybe I should accept that we were only friends and that's how it's suppose to be
The age difference is just to big of a deal... For you to be with me
I still see other guys even though I am thinking of you
I guess that's good for me cause I just don't know what to do
You'd never have guessed that I'm falling for you; Not in a million years
You'd never be able to see it...--Not behind all these tears

Don't ever fall in love for love can't always be true

One day you’ll  be happy the next day you'll be blue

Love it is another word that only exists in my dreams

Love has no true meaning except in fairy tales it seems

Love can make you happy or sad it's really up to you

Love to love if you can before it breaks your heart into

Don't ever fall in love words that i truly say-

The true meaning of the last name love has gone from us to stay
Sheila M King Jun 2016
Everyday I stand by my door hoping and wishing I find
Someone to share my life with you would treat me more than kind
Whenever I find someone like this my love they did not want to share
I could not give them all my love if they did not really care
When it comes to love it seems like I'm always last
No love for me to share and memories haunt me from the past
There's no one left to care but I have so much love to give I can't forget about my past
Maybe someday I can mend this broken heart if only I weren't always last

Staring eyes, hateful lies, words said in disgust
Hurtful, decieving, a little misleading,- no one I can trust
I thought I could, said I would; - always have a friend
Now i know, - true colors show; I'm alone until the end
- Time goes by oh so fast. Nothing for sure, or meant to last
Sometimes you'll want it, other times, ya won't
One day you have it, the next, ya don't....
- Lonely, lasting for a short while; along comes a friend to make you smile
Feeling great as things seem to be changing
Slowly but surely, my life is arrainging
Leading to what hope is good- doing right by all that should
Trying hard to see what lies ahead; taking chances by what somebody said
Can this be a friend or just an aquaintance?
Like all things, in time, it too will need maintence
- On my own or with helping hands, maybe a friend who understands
Either way, I have a choice,- advised by many but I hear one voice
Choosing, picking, having to decide; hoping our friendship will not collide
Falling down, get back on my feet;lean towards goals I want to meet
Day by day, one by one, friend after friend, until there is none
Getting older, always knowing, wiser, smarter, - keep on going
- Reaching where I want to be. Who, if anyone, walked with me?
Did they follow? Did I lead? Can this be just what I need?
Will I ever find that one friend?
- Someone whose always there, from beginning to the end....

I once was an addict hooked on the dope

Thought I had to have it in this world to cope

Smoking some *** every now and then, one led to another in a world of sin

Inhale it, shoot it,snort it up the nose;into the bloodstream and heart it goes

***, speed, ******* or crack with any kind of drug there's no turning back

It will take you to places you never been before get you addicted to keep wanting more

Hunted by junkies pushers and tricks mostly by users who need a quick fix

More valued than diamonds more precious than gold use them just once and you too will be sold

All kinds of people have fallen under the wings just look around to see results of the sting

Drugs are addicting to all those who use the very first time can lead to abuse

They will destroy your life and your families as well becoming an addict is the world headed for hell

It's hard to break free once you're addicted then it's too late when your tried and convicted

Charged with possession or with intent doesn't matter exactly the way that you went

Once you have been busted you've committed the crime you could end up like me had possession got time

Did not think it could happen especially to me; too high to accept the reality

Drawn up in a needle first mixed in a spoon, too late to get high got high too soon

Register the blood back through the vein -was in one hell of a mixture to feel no pain

Feel the flow it happens so fast the rush so good but too short to last

But look ahead on down the line addicted to drugs is the end that you'll find

You won't have money to pay the bills can't afford the rent got your high to feel the need now all the money is spent

The kids need shoes the kids need clothes don't have food to eat sold the food stamps for some dope to the dealer down the street

Step on it play with it whatever you want it to call no matter how good or bad you still must sell it all

Wheel it, deal it, sell and sling it, need the cash to recop

Barely get by barely get high, barely does the addiction stop

There is no life in doing drugs; I learned the reason that day

When they took my home, took my kids, took my freedom away

Prison has helped change my life to get my head on straight

I still have an outlook on life when I thought it was to late

There is still a future, now have freedom and life -

Still “mom” to my kids and still my husband’s wife

Being clean, keeping busy helps me cope, keeps my mind off doing dope

Today, I’m living life to the fullest, even with my prior conviction

I can say I’m happy today and clean from my drug addiction

Even after all these years, you don't understand me; atleast that's how you make me feel
I keep things locked up inside, not showing at all what's real
I may tell you one thing but you don't remember or you forget
We end up in a huge fight, with both of us upset
The names you call, the way you tease, the tears you make me cry-
You always put the blame on me when all I did was try
-You tell me that you love me, yet, some things you say are mean
You always says that I am wrong with circumstances unforeseen
I try to tell my side of things but you always think I'm lying
In the end, you MUST be right so why do I keep trying?
Take a look and listen to the things you do and say
Those around you see and hear, but you seem to be miles away  
There are times I tell you things and you acknowledge that you heard
But if I later bring it up, you say I never mentioned a word
You hate for me to say anything cause you think I'm not on your side
But when you turn my words around, it's like I'm the one who lied
-In "your" world your always right; my opinion only matters to me
And as far as not being on your side, that's where I disagree....
I try to make  a point to you, only yours is clear-
The only words you understand, are those you want to hear
Why can't just one time you give me the benefit of the doubt?
Why can't we work together until it's all worked out?
You never give me any credit even when brought to your attention
But all you see is the fault of me and that's all you ever mention
I try to listen to you without butting in... I take what you thought was wrong
And try to make it right again
Disagreement over many things, my way, your way, or neither-
When I do, agree with you;  you do not notice that way either
Maybe the way one person talks, is not what the other one hears
But I don't understand why you don't understand me.......
Even after all these years

She never knew real happiness
Until you showed her how
Never really found true love
But I know she's found it now
Finally found a real man who doesn't take her every cent
Doesn't make her pay all the bills, buy groceries and pay rent
You managed to open her heart so she could let you in
You shared your secrets and desires with her and showed her love again
Buy her gifts and show you care with words from your heart
Gave a woman with little hope -- hope for a brand new start
I know that she's your Angel and to her your even more
You helped spread her wings and gave her things she never had before
-One being a happy marriage- the one she never had
The love you share and way you care, not once have I seen her sad
You say you love her- you give her trust
For those reasons, I know you must
I can tell by the way you treat her and all the things you do
Your heart is really there and all your love is too
That special time you walked into her life-..and over time, became your wife
You give her the world and nothing less
You took her From Hell..... to Happiness
