New Poem>>>>> Salvation

Salvation

I feel like I’m being chased by terminator
On my knees sending up a prayer
Because my future has been prophesied, or prayed for
Mom has prayed for my success and wife since four
But it’s hard to live up to those standards
Trying to stay strong so push ups till my hands hurt
I’m resisting the leader of the resistance
For instance
I know I can be great but I just want to live
Grow old with a wife and kids
Everyone says I’m a good kid and I have a bright future
But I don’t want to be stuck in battle with Lex Luther
He’s just a metaphor representing the struggle
Its about to burst, my bubble
Some times I want to be faceless and fade into the background
But they all want me to be the champ pound for pound
I just want to be me
From all my problems take flight and flee
However, I’ve learned I can create me own destiny
The direction I’m pointed too
But the work is up to me to do
I can changed the scene if I choose
I can change the color from dark to light blues
I’ve had an epiphany to a certain extent
Use my pen to vent
And realize this is a blessing heaven sent
This was planned since creation
Control what I can, that’s my salvation
And I’m ready to adapt

Ms. Lady

Ms. Lady

Hey how ya doing Ms. Lady?
Now I’m not trying to come off too crazy
But I just wanted to know your name
My name is Dennis and I’m not trying to run no game
It may seem forward but I had to get to know you
I hope me coming off like this won’t throw you?
I’m just trying something new
They say if you want something, go for it
Got to at least give myself a chance to make it
I’m a man yes
But not like the rest
I am genuinely interested in you
What you’re about and how the day you got through
Yes yes it’s true
I mean I hope I come off real and charming
Because if not, your “typical” guy alarm would ring
I’m not gone ask for your number, just name
And I would hope you would ask the same
So I didn’t mean to bother you, well I did
You may think most men are dogs or pigs
But I hope you give me a chance
Is that maybe? With a smile and glance
Well maybe I’ll see you around Ms. Lady

>>>NEW POEM<<<

Bleeding Paper

I put my finger to paper and start to write
I write and write and write
Non stop I just write
I write about wrong and right
I write about a mans plight
About a woman’s fight
I write and I don’t let up
I write til the blood from the page fills a cup
I write til my passion over flows
I write and write til my pages fill up bowls
I write for all the average joes
‘Cause that’s all I am, a regular pro
I write write write write write
I write about feelings and emotion
About love lost and the sunset over the ocean
It gets easier but the pain never leaves
It gets inside you and starts to breathe
So, I write about it
The whys, the nots, buts and ifs
Whether good or bad…
I write write write til the paper bleeds
…And you see the real me

Type of Love

I need the type of love to sweep me off my feet
The type of love to make my knees weak
I need the type of love that leaves no doubt
The type of love I want to die for, just to tell Jesus about
I want the type of love that I have in my dreams
That type of love I could transfer to reality
I need the type of love where I start smiling at the thought of her smile
The type of love that would drive cupid wild
I need that love best friends share
Long love, that lasts longer than a flare
I want a love that I can’t explain nor comprehend
The type of love that makes my mind bend
I want that love that’s not gone bail in tough times
The type of love I have to put in my rhymes
That type of love where I ask if I deserve her
And she responds do I deserve you sir
I want the type of love that has my head to the sky and feet on the ground
The type that’s talked about around town
Hopefully she's reading this and looking for my type of love

If I'm So Special

She said if I’m special
Why aren’t you more careful?
Like that golf handicap why aren’t you more helpful?
If I’m special, why don’t you treat me so?
Why do you block my glow?
If I’m so special
Why are things so stressful?
If I’m special why don’t I feel it?
Like a horse and a whip
Like the waves throwing a ship
You say I’m special so why do you need a script to act?
It should come easier than that
If I’m your special one
Why can’t I be the earth to your sun?
Spinning in a dance with you till we’re done
If I’m so special, why can’t we last forever?
Like eternal life as God’s gift to treasure
She said if I’m so special why do you treat me this way?
After all that, I had nothing to say

What's New?

Check me out on my homies blog, http://pdjrsportsreviews.blogspot.com/. I did a review of the PGA Championship, Tiger Woods losing to YE Yang. I'm keeping my day job but the homie challenged me and I had to come through.
