Sometimes, in a loving relationship,there must be two on board
If one wants to jump out of the bat, than pain is the only reward
It takes two , to make the thing work, one can't be slipping around
In the dark,doing dirt, be of a made up mind, to cherish each other
From nine to five, please don't be selfish , just thinking about yourself
Because your once true love, will soon start looking around and reaching
For somebody else, it takes two people, to keep love real and true

Pretending, to me has become so real and dear, i pretend even though
You're no longer here, wearing  a false face smile,for all to see
A clown in the mirror to be,naturally,I tell myself to be honest and
Even try, but when nobody's looking, tears flow from my eyes
Its gotten so, each day of life, my lying is done, so skillfully, lost your
Love ,so very long ago, the love has sailed, on by, and cannot get you
To hear this earnest plea, with my head in my hands,o woe is me


















ool everyone both near and far, a clown mask to be,i tell myself to

Reach out a helping hand,if you see someone down, be sure to help him
Stand, he might for the moment, have lost the way, everybody needs
Somebody  to help them stand, there is darkness of hard times reaching
Out for us all, you can be a helping light, while passing along
Love and help people, of all colors, with all of your might, young or old
We all need some comfort, in this spinning fast old world, it doesn't
Matter if you're black or white, man or woman, little boy or girl
Sad  tears fall from everyone behind closed doors, you might be the one
That misery is looking for, or even the one to someone's whispered
Prayer, cried out in hopes, that someone will come and really care

Let us pause,and remember, the people who came into our lives,but
Didn't stay,who left us, with joy or sadness,and went on their solitary
Way, destiny is calling, all of mankind's children to make a difference
Change the world, or sit on down, the clock of time is slowly ticking,
Make your decision now, make up your mind and decide

Looking deep,into your eyes,courage is leaping up,inside
And my one desire, is to be, your one and only guy
This is my time, now to aim ever so high,the rain of yesterday
Has gone away, waiting here patiently, to hold you close
A never let you ,get away ,  forget about all those,other guys
Who tried ,to give you a play, have mercy on this man, please don't
Leave me alone,with just a sad sigh, respect my courage, if nothing else
That has taught this man, to aim high

Long ago ,someone once wrote,'' There is no sacrifice  to great, for a
Chance at immortality'' I wish that  this great thought was mine
But, its not,and therefore,I'm sharing it with you
And whether your favorite poet,might be one of mine,Paul Lawrence
Dunbar,Phyliss Wheatley,Langston Hughes,Maya Angelou, in a lonely
Place,in communaties, all over the world,their is a poet,from dawn
To dusk,capturing on a blank piece of paper,as a willing servant and
Scribe,a poem, which is in, and of itself,a creative flight of the mind
Spirit,soul,for poetry has a story to tell,just like all of us,and demands
To be heard,which is the reason,that it came to you in the first place

Long ago,some one once wrote," There is no sacrefice to great for a
Chance at immortality'',I wish that  this great thought was mine,but
It isn't,and whether your favorite poet might be Phillis Wheatly,Paul
Lawrence Dunbar,Maya Angelou,Langston Hughes,like they are mine
In a lonely place, in communities all over the world,their is a poet
Capturing on a blank piece of paper,  as a willing servant  and scribe
A poem, which is in,and of itself,an uplifting of the spirit,mind,soul
Which is the very reason,the poem came to you,in the first place
Poetry demands to be heard,and its story told at all times, in all places
So poet,keep on being inspired, and inspire others with your muse
While in your lonely place, and always know within, that there is
No sacrefice  to great for a chance at immortality
