I want to be better Not mad or in anger. Not giving pique to Fellow strangers. Not Giving self the world's Own pleasures. Not being Selfish in others letters. Not being abundant in Thoughts of me. Thinking Not on tommorrow But eternity. God help me Be the me You created me To be. I'm a Human who Has flaws Mistakes Have felt Distrust Done the Heartbrakes. I am ashamed Of my past Though want To move ahead to the Future and present. I'm just a transgressor Trying to overcome the Darkened essence. I am not a saint I'm humbly a peasant. Meaning poor in my actions. But those shall change No longer do I want To be estranged from Dios mío. I want to Give him all This is me This is real.

Dios mío
My world! My beautiful world! Your mouths are endless fountains of profound shouts and I have seen the things you breathe in man's hearts and I've tried to tell my brothers that they're lies, But we keep letting your voices in every time. My world told me that poetry was supposed to be my only thing And my only way of expressing my inner me. It told me lies about who I was and how I should think. It told me that I need to write like I bleed this ink. My God! I don't want anyone else to think that I'm still in love with me! You are the only thing I want to see And your hope has grounded me by your streams! I'm in love with you and how you fill up my dreams! I'm not an aching, brooding, bleeding, receding, deceiving Deceasing, cheating, repeating voice with a black heart beating. I am your son! I don't know how you allow the dust of the earth To be rebirth into your arms and claim you as a father! My voice was always meant to be singing love songs to you. Recently I've been dying to sing again. I want you to know that When I go that I just wanted to hold my God's hand And dance with him forever. I want you to know that When I go that I honored my father with my lips And used my fiery tongue to bless and encourage.

Back to Basics
I pray in the morning and I pray at night I pray that people will see the light God is good and He loves you so when you're way up high or you're way down low You can talk to Him whenever you need He'll always listen oh yes indeed He'll love you when you're good and He'll love you when you're bad He'll love you when you're happy and even when you're sad Whether you're heterosexual or a person that is gay skinny, fat, short or tall He'll love you anyway

Him
My eyes heavy, lips sickly sweet. The sun beats down not hot, but so beautiful you must look away. Tears burn the skin they touch, I wish to become soil on this blanket. I don’t believe in god. No god would let me feel this way, a constant yearning pain. I reach for one so close, yet he’s across the planet. His eyes look straight into me, straight through me, so he must not understand. But I do see the Willow tree. The one my father planted. Her long, elegant arms reach down. She kisses my toes, and sings me a tune, I drift to sleep. When I awake I’m still in a nightmare, but the Willow Goddess has left her mark on my cheek. That night I realize. She doesn’t allow me to “have him”, to love him, to kiss him, and hug him because it would hurt him. My soul is untethered, it’s not long til I’m free. Til my arms sprout leafs and grow into the wind, my feet find a nutrient soil and spring rain and I become a willow tree. She keeps us just apart, because she favors the man. She favors the tenderhearted, the only one she can now save.
