precious words

No words are as precious as those you want to hear.....

Try to understand

I try to understand
what will happen
with my hope and me

how can she pass
and not chill wit this
all our fireworks
even our private kiss

passions ignite
understanding is a dream
I know deep in side
hope isn't mean

fighting to protect
a painful hurt
hope cant see me
under hardwork and dirt

standing on
misunderstanding
left me
misunderstood

hope can't see the tree
just the worm in the wood

I can see hope
lonely in a crowd
reflections aren't seen
by the wounded or the proud

life's coach a jerk
don't do no good
compared to what we share
what he would if he could

hope come to me
when the healing is done
when hope wanna laugh
we'll have some fun

Hope gives pause

Confused, refused, he paused and took a drink.
Trying to beat the tide while his heart... Sink.
Often confident and out of lies.
He faces the truth and wonders why.
How could something so sweet so beautiful so promising of joy.
Be so brutal so absolutely Real.
Like life and it's battles for existence.
She was real like teeth in a bite.
Bitter - she was sweet - because she KEPT it real.

His game was tight, his words his might -
".. Nahh, niggah, NAHHHH - you gets none tonight!..."
Her absolute strength amazed and stunned him.
Her demand commanded his respect.
Her soul demanded his attention.
He was the smallest part of the equation.

There are not enough days to cure him of her.
She runs through is blood like the drug she is to him.
she's on his mind when she's not with him, she's ruthless when she is!
They laugh, They cry, They eat, They live...
Alive with the promise no one can give.
That together they would be tomorrow and happy.

Hope in their eyes.
never on their lips
joy in their hearts
and lust touched their tips...

a brother's gotta have Hope!

Ramble on Desire!

So hard
impossible to reach
yet I can obtain
life teaches us to grasp
that is the game
-
life is hard
still now it's true
how did the first
know what to do
-
Creatures crawl
even worms in wood
hunger speaks
hunger is good
-
Desire is to man
what clouds are to rain
when the time isn't right
one should refrain
-
life gives us gifts
few and far between
when one receives a gift
elsewhere harvest are lean
-
passions keep us honest
to want perfection is RAW
don't ignore barriers
kick scratch and claw
-
reach for the fruit
no mater what the cost
sit and ponder too long
the whole thing is lost
-

The Vamp

She was a virus in his blood
the evil in his dreams
She was poison in his drink
garbage in his stream

She was a tumor in his brain
the lonely in a crowd
She was a worm in his wood
blood on his shroud
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When he needed to be near Her
She sold him on a dream
She was all he ever wanted
but never what She seemed

he ran all day to be with her
and share with her his views
She listened, laughed and destroyed him
now She is his muse

He was young and beautiful
pure of will and light
She was black and seduced him
with her power and her might

He wanted to be her everything
her lover in the night
her black heart spit at him
in a vision late one night

first She smiled, and he laughed
that's when She started,
her eyes rolled up,
her lips pulled back
and then the red seas parted

When She left late that night
his nipples red and raw
in his heart... Could it be true?
Yes! He wanted more!!

Wasn't her personality
wasn't her big black eyes
was not even that secret place
tucked between her thighs

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


She was a virus in his blood
the evil in his dreams
She was poison in his drink
garbage in his stream

She was a tumor in his brain
the lonely in a crowd
She was a worm in his wood
blood on his shroud

A poem for hope

Bright, the light is so beautiful
barely I see through
Thin the Vail -bright' shines through

How can longing ring so bright
and be obscured by the view

If your heart was whole
If your view was clear

Only if time had my favor
would I have your ear

When I'm in your sight
I feel like a child again

I feel like I've found
some long lost friend

so easy to speak to talk
thoughts flow and flee
You give my brow beaded sweat
and then you set me free

time stand still!
set me loose
let me escape your iron grip.

let me have this moment

alone

let sail my ship.

strand me on an island
only her and me

only hope and 1,000 years
is all I ask of you

Let me be lost in her
her eyes
her lips
her mind
let me have what I need
to reveal to her
my kind

for she's never seen the likes of me..

hope never has to doubt me ...
for I keep my promises

Go TO SCHOOL homeboy!!!

In this world you can play ball in a park - but studies are neglected...
You can't play ball all your life, or you can learn till the day you die..

Start spending time reading a book - and not a top 10...
Learn a language, study a computer program

SPEND TIME DOING SOMETHING THAT WILL GIVE YOU SOMETHING BACK!!!!

BECAUSE WE ARE ALL CONTAINERS FOR WHAT WE SPEND OUR TIME DOING...
