"daydreamin" poems
i want a voice like the heartbeat of the metra tracks
as it shakes its way into your brain
while you're half awake
and daydreaming
'bout something sweet
something that means nothing to me
but it's cute
see
the way you can't help but smile
i want to be that cringe of excitement in your skull
that you can't stop daydreamin' about
and...
if you could find yourself fascinated by my freckles
and my flaws
and the scars all over from all of the near-fatal gashes
and the heaps and heaps of stardust rusting to my eyelashes
and the fact that i'm always talking about love as if i'd actually had it
i promise
i'd never say you were a fool
i could wear you like split ends
or a crooked grin
a handsome pair in inclement weather
somehow better together
not two halves
of one whole
two wholes
thriving on each other
cigarettes and coffee
whiskey and beer
mmhmmm
we're in the clear from here
nothing but salty tides and starry skies
straight on 'till morning

Youngin's wisdom in spades
idiots hoping and hopping over
green grass.
i always knew
this heart was fragile
in metallic ice
melting the romance
burning shreds of dreaming
and fawning
all over your bleeding skin.
i'm tracing
the space
where everything began
to flourish
within your desperate *****
of belief and
hysterical magic.
i'm racing
my heartbeats
underneath these useless sheets
i'm shivering in my teeth
i'm marveling in the
glimpses of your novice
anxiousness.
i'm tightlipped
and about to break
this listless charm
into disposable
garbage.
youngin' love
and daydreamin' of heavenly explosions
within dreadful tunnels.
i've ruptured my lungs
screaming in
my bed
trying to reach through
and infiltrate
recreate
dance and intoxicate.
i'm tightlipped
and i can't seem to speak.

I’m locked up
Rapunzel 5th floor view
Witches Brew keeping me sub-due
Mind wanders delirious
Phantom sounds intrude a mind’s
Creek of thoughts creeping
Into inebriated contemplations
Would she ride fast or slow
A day dream delirious images of a past
Love interrupts
*She hushes me, the 4-walled prison is white and painted in rains of vitamin, leaked in
through portals propped open with a warm breeze taking the virginity of white curtains,
we embrace.*
I erupt.
Fantasies flood the ever expanding corners of my mind
Drowning my emotional state with movie clips
Reminiscent of love that should be forbidden
*She smiles from ear to ear.
my heart stops,
then travels north, constricting my only freeway of life.*
I give no fight
With a limited supply, I only want to waste it on you.

Thoughts of you, occupy my mind,
drowning in love of the deepest kind.
Unable to sleep, eat or think,
dreaming of you at the kitchen sink.
Thinkin of all my sweetest wishes,
as I'm stood here, doin the dishes.
Head in the clouds, feet off the ground,
sound of my blood as it rushes around.
Heart beating so fast, a love story to settle,
day dreamin of you, as I turn on the kettle.

Every night I have nightmares about you.
you always tell me you love me but I never say it back
because i don't love you. Some may say that's cold- hearted
but it's the truth.
In my dreams you always **** yourself
and then I realize that i do love you.
Every night I have tears rolling down my face,
because of you.
Every song i hear, reminds me of you.
Every African- American I see, reminds me of you.
Every time I get a call/text, I think its you.
Every time I daydream, i'm daydreamin' about you.
Every time I think, i'm thinking about you.
Every time I see a shooting star ,I wish for you.
Every time someone touches me, I think its you.
Every time someone kisses me, it reminds me of you.
Point is im always thinking of you which makes it so much harder for me to forget about you.

And the sun sat.... when it did it felt like my eyes were closed. Felt like my back had been turned or I was in a dark room with no windows. Heart beating outta my chest. My hands could flow a river. Body tense. Legs weak. But I still remember. The day before we were together. And the day before that too. Where did it all go wrong? I wish It hadn’t cause now I have to sleep without you. I could comfort myself if I wanted to but it just wouldn’t be the same and you don’t even understand the pain that comes from hearing your name. Time heals all but I really just wanna make it stop cause it just keeps going and I’m stuck with all the things that come with not. Not having you here. Not seeing you. Not being able to smell your breath in the morning time. I really got use to all those things and now i have to relearn not having you around. But is it the same for you? I miss you so **** much. This hurt that I feel is so unreal. Maybe it’s a dream please wake me up. No phone call no text you ain’t even trying to come back this way and even though I’m hurt I’d still take you back with open arms any day...... guess I’m just stuck daydreamin y’all....

Dream with me of a place
Of a place where reality doesn't look harsh
Where fantasy feels surreal
When music were made for us
Where eternal peace can be found
Because reality hasn't been really on my side
I sticked my tongue out
Of the bitterness that felt like stout
I feel cold,i feel numb
My world changes to a new town
Where dreams felt so real
The mixtures of lights seem like as if they were made for each other
As if intricacy are pieces of puzzle that fits together beautifully
It's just me now,it's just me now
I keep thinking to see, i keep wanting to see
The future that holds for us out on that sea
Oh dear, how i miss you lucy

I remember back in the days
In the barrio
Wearing fresh braids
And high top fades
With the big ol shades
Emulate super fly movies
I was young hard head
Felt like nobody could move me
Until them slugs hit me
Had me dreaming about reality
***** real I'm seeing my own blood
Is this heaven or hell ?
I'm close to death clutching for breath
Uh bust it
Couple hours later in surgery
Docts don't know what to do with me
To many peeps I'm strung out
Ask one of my homies to keep the heat out
And a ak by my bed
Just in case them.come again and http://kill.me dead
But one ***** can't forget named Craig
og real never faked the funk
Had pounds of skunks one hit and we all high
Felt like our souls was touching the sky my eyes
Blood shot red half dead daydreamin' schemin'
Lookin to make my next move
Exercise and strategize at the same time
Keep all eyes on one time
But Craig had a lot of adversaries
His day was coming and before I started dumpin them techs was hummin'
Too late heart break souls break out
Am I lucky. To survive? Or do I really deserve to die? Uh
I wish I could see him again instant replay
Of the ****** stuck in my brain full of pain
No gain
From a lost one only death tallying the next one
As I reminiscence smokin' my dogia
Givin' a real shout out to my real nigguha
Who's strugglin'
Ballad for a dead souljah

Y'all ever get that feeling
When you just a little bit higher than usual?
When you a little more lax and chill?
When you feelin' like magic?
When you just can't stop thinkin' about that certain someone?
Your man, your girl, when you just can't stop Daydreamin?
Feelin' the love the other part of you offers? The best feeling is the one your people can give you.
The bindings, the shackles that tie each other together, visible to all,
In the form of connecting hands and in the way they stare
They radiate happiness and are bonds stronger than the toughest things
Causing even the most stoic of people to shed a tear
When you Daydreamin, you feel light,
You feel like the best. But Daydreamin, it ain't reality,
When you look at your one, you see the mask of perfection, the mask you put on them
But having a fake lover, that's better than having none at all,
Because when you have no lover, no sweetheart you can trust,
Instead of feeling light, you start to see
The bitterness, and the nightmares that plague the alone
Darlin', if you can see this, if you can feel it, the harsh reality that is life,
Then you'll understand, just how hard it is
To stop Daydreamin, every day of your life.

I mourned my childhood; that daydreamin' boy of the past walking in the woods with friends.
Sweet child that knew no bounds.
This laughing kid with his head in the clouds.
**** the dreams that flew away; given my chance, in that past I would stay.
A eulogy for the electric being I once was; no current was ever strong enough to hold forever.

Feel my pain soon to unleash
My veins hard as concrete
Tryna avoid the cold feet
Gotta watch my health
Cuz fools stay plottin' on ya
Light my squares and prepare
For the worst I shoot first deadly
With my aim
Burn all my enemies with this eternal flame
Left in vain things will never change
Officials use my name to get me tamed
But I xd out my birth name
Took on another name
Like past revolutionaries see the cemetery
Early age broke out the cage of stress I'm raged
I'm daydreamin' picture me ?
blasted
By cold heartless ********
House of wisdom I mastered
For telling the truth its an eye for eye
Nigguh !!so many claim they true
I try to hope less
But most rather see you hopeless
and die
Everyday I look up at the sky and ask why?
I was born to die?
Enticed with bad memories nothing but misery
Seems to follow me
When I found out I was black
Society quick to pull out a strap
Lay ya on ya back ?
Dead man with big dreams can't find no team
So I roll.solo puff my indo
And let my four four go
Ride on my enemies til they surrender
Even if they do I'll smoke em
Til they tender!!!
Now tell me who ya gone run too?
To escape yo death date
gaspin' for ya last breath
Life's a game of chest
Still facin' the struggle
Through the totes of cannabis
Even though its been centuries
Gotta watch ya homies
Cuz they quick to smoke ya free
Close friends turned foes
Look at the cash flow?
Ya worth more dead than alive
Now I'm bleedin' life's racing inside my head
But will I survive????
