"is it because im ugly?"

"Dont you ever say that
He replied
you have never seen yourself
Now I,
I have seen you, all of you

I will not allow you to call yourself that until you have woken up to your sleeping body, in your most vulnerable possition.

Not until you have watched yourself
sit on the corner of your bed and get lost in your favorite book.

Not until you have watched tears fall from your eyes watching your favorite movie.

Not until you see your face angry when you dont get your way

Not until you can look into your own eyes and see the true happiness you get when a strager compliments you"

its not fair to me, to discourage something I have become so well accustomed to
Moral to the story, your not ugly. You cannot think you are either, youve only seen a mirrored image of yourself

The first time I saw you
It was through a ***** window.
You were leaning against a wall
Smoking a cigarette.

A tall, cool strager totally unaware.

I couldn't help but wonder
If your lips tasted like nicotine
Or if those slight curls
Were as soft as they looked.

And I knew then I wanted you.

I wanted to scream,
"Can I be your new addiction?"
But then you put out the spark
And retreated into that green door.

You left me wanting to see so much more.

Crimson sky's,
and moonless night...

Dreary days,
leave me in a daze...

Thoughtless moments,
I can never find....

Grander illusions,
fill my mind...

Like a penny on the floor,
most pick it up....

Wishing for something,
when they find it heads up.....

Yet a strager being hurt,
most will walk by....

Life and meaning,
what does it mean....

Like a turning river,
it has its reason...

Sometimes things,
are not meant to be changed..

But if thought out correctly,
change is healthy...

Today is the third time in a row that I had to substitute the tyre bands of my car for rushing pass red lights for you, leaving a screeching sound behind to hang in the balance, while you were pertaining your carnality in front of him right in time before I'd get to your house.
The anticipation, all the doubt, I knew it had to be lurking in the crooks and spaces for a reason.
I was too concerned about your topsy-turvy than I was about my own turmoil, that I am now stuck with screeches (harder than the sound of my car wheels piercing over the tar road) inside of my head crying out your name in highlighting rhythms.
Everytime you wrapped your arms around my neck, it felt as soft as my favourite woollen scarf, but differed from my scent; Yes, it was his body spray diffusing through my nostrils in waves.
I don't know how you managed to latch these locks to my eyes,
I don't know how I couldn't manage to look pass your facade.
The other day still, we met not face to face, but eye to eye in the grocery store, and you walk right pass me.
I don't understand how someone I used to know so well, are now just a strager to me.

a death of a strager in sight
usually leads to curiosity

sometimes death on the news
is ignored or leaves us in awwww

death of a friend
we sometimes feel different

but a death of a loved one
is full of pain

i sit back and think that god wants no grief
yes, there is time of mourniing to make death complete

now if you come to my home town
which is new orleans

when someone diess, we dance in the street
we carry their coffin to a jazz beat
we throw in some blues for the few that cry

but we all know threre's a party in the sky
