Rainy Days

Rainy days
Oh how I love your ways
You always seem to soothe
You always ease my mood
Rainy days I do enjoy
My mind opens to deploy
Poems just rain out like from a cloud
I never want to leave the bed
But to far away places my mind does tread
To Prague and its stone roads
And Egypt with its Kingly thrones
The rain forest of Brazil
How about Paris streets or a Jamaican beach where my mind can spill
Travel to South Africa and enjoy a SA sunset
But in reality I haven't been yet

As the wind blows
I listen to the rain drops dripping on the ground outside my window
My breathing eases
My pulse decreases
My mind again drifts into a dream world
A world that isn't spoiled
A world refreshed in every drop
When the rain comes everyone stops
We enjoy the little things
The things that make us human beings
Irrelevant things are no longer relevant
The rain, can you stand it?
Oh soft musical rain how I love thee
While you're raining down I can clearly see
So my beloved rain, rain down on me

Heart Beat Away

We're a heart beat away from love
She doesn't think I hear her and gives a shove
I hear it all, but I'm not listening to your mouth
My ears are focused down south
And your talking is drowning out your heart
I'm listening to that part
See w/ being only a heart beat away
Any moment can turn into that special day
Where we show special love in a special way
The most loving and intimate things aren't always spoken
The sounds reaching from a heart broken
That sound & thirst for love is unlike any man can make
That's why it took for God to create
So baby shhhhh & hear me buzz
We're a heart conversation away from our hearts falling in love

If We Never Again

If we never love again
Know love was our friend
We've never really loved
But the feeling was still that there of
If we never get to have that true love experience
I was ready to give you my heart wrapped in shear tents
You could see most of it, but from an angle some was invisible
I gave to you to unwrap and make it visible
If we never get to love, hug or kiss
Just know that love will never be missed
For I will never let it go or dissipate
The excitement of the possibility gets me to hyperventilate
But if we never get to love and you're forever the one that slipped away
Well I don't know really what to say
I should probably be blamed for the confusion
But I'm a student forever learning in loves institution
I have my good and bad days
My I'm not good enough for her ways
And really to love again we must have loved at a previous time
We haven't, but then again we have in our minds
We've stepped foot over that line
But... In the end...
If we, never love again
I'll toss that love in Gods open hand
Maybe He'll send it back with a plan
If... Maybe...

Pain Pen

Pain Pen

Drown it all in the pen
Only linking to the Dark Knight is my skin
But no Biggie here
No Suicidal Thoughts here
Though I do feel fear
I get through it like leggings that are shear
Instead of myself, I drown it in the pen
I try to let go like in the wind
And I try and play it like I’m fine
So being a smart reader you know I vomit through my pen
All the ifs and buts out my pen
Like when she said we’re at our end
That battle I didn’t win
Or when he left to be with the Lord
Inside me that struck an emotional cord
From my eyes tears poured
Since then, no more tears
I’m drunk off pain, no more beers
Eyes so swollen I see with my ears
And I talk through my pain pen
If you only knew how hard it’s been
How many relationships that fell through
How many situations I couldn’t commit to
What took me so long to graduate?
More ammo for the pen
Why do certain type chicks to me gravitate?
More ammo for the pen
Life troubles like everyone else
But they’re not me, so not like everyone else
It ain’t always about a win
But so I don’t go crazy, I use my pain pen

Mouth Wash

Goes down a lil sour but so fresh and so clean
Gives you a drive so mean
Wash away the wasted material
Separate before it gets mushy like cereal
Because once mush
To the side its pushed
Strive to be more w/ a strategic solution
Put ya hands up to the potential pollution
Minty fresh nasty in the after taste
But that's true, that's a base
Swallow ya pride and the feeling is terrible
But later you see it was bearable
And really needed to move forward
Wash ya mouth see
Speak it and it shall be
One way or another coming to fruition
Like intuition or a premonition
So take in the bad, swirl and spit
Separate it from the good, that's it

Can I Call You Beauty?

She walked by me pulling my attention like an under toe
In her direction is the only direction I could go
Her walk was royalty
To be in her presence commanded loyalty
She embodies grace & what it means to be a lady
She's sunshine, no where around her is shady
Excuse me, can I call you beauty?

She's a picture perfect frame
She's wild in heart yet tame
She plays above the game
She's sunshine in the rain
Excuse me, can I call you beauty?

My friends are tired of me talking about her
But they don't see her like I see her
Her eyes, so big & beautiful looking into my soul w/ a glance
Don't stare, you'll get caught in a trance
That big smile gives off a love for life
For this beauty you wouldn't pass it up once, let alone twice
So I make my way w/ a confident nervousness
The softness in her eyes relieves stress
Excuse me, can I call you beauty?
