No love
I think about the words you said,An I freeze up
Wondering how could it ever have been Love
If you could speak so bad about me..
So i sit in a static shock
Thinking and planning my next word
Speaking from anger to tare you down
Mouth begins to open but heart can't make a sound
So my face wears this frown
One of disappointment and hurt
Wanting to feel destroyed yet again
Falling victim to yet another heartless man
Who needed me to boost the ego he lacked
Guess you had to pretend to cut your heart some slack
Now i prepare to destroy you with...

Trying to get over it ...But do we really ever
Guess what Dad is my uncle
and moms his quick nut
talk about being loyal
the things niggas will do just to bust
I feel the pain but where the tears at
family ain't family no more and i'm the result of that
between drugs and jail mom was to unfit to raise me
Guess i'm kinda two sided maybe i'm really crazy
Calling sumone uncle not knowing there your dad
wanting to be pissed but knowing what my mom went thru makes me mad.
My body can't escape the rage my heart feels
knowing not only did he hurt her but me too
wondering what could i...

Why....Can't I
It seems like I can't stop drying these eyes
Because inside I'm silently crying
Dried up tears on my face, but my emotions keep hiding
Away from the weight of the world that is
Smiling while dying inside just to keep from breaking
Pain so heavy on the inside
My heart no longer knows how to keep faking
So instead my fist ball up and I go into survival mode
Praying to God that this type of rage won't hold
Feeling so much hate towards those who do me wrong
Break me down leave me standing alone
Just so they can sit back and laugh
And watch me fight...

misunderstanding
You tell me to go and find my own man,like i wont reach out and have yours.See the difference between you and i,is i was taught not to play with toys and lil boys.Or insecure girls for that matter.See what im after your pathetic lil mind could never phathom.
So when you stroke your ego wondering about the ifs and maybes of me and your man all i can do is sit back an laff.
Cause unlike you i will never be put in a situation of second guessin am i first or last.Because the woman i am will never become a memory of a past you so call your future.
Late night worry and wondering if...

DEFEATED
...BROKEN
....EGO BRUISED
.....HEART SHATTERED
PIECES STILL REMAIN

Fading into black
I always see myself laying dormant unable to stand
sitting ,hoovering in a cold dark room staring at shaking hands
wishing someone would just help me to figure out my life
looking at the shadow of my reflection to notice no one is really here.

Try Again
I see you more than you vision ur self
Inside looking fine but inside screaming for help
Let me ease your troubles and love you slow
I promise when I hold your heart i'll never let go
Just give me a shot to prove im not like the rest
I just wanna love you and make sure you have the best
Because deep dwn inside your tired of settling for less
This i know because the frown on your heart proves it so
Just let me be the inscription to what you dream
Visions of me by your side,we make the perfect team
Im not asking for all your trust but give me a try

Dreaming But I felt awake
I lay here in awe of you
wanting to feel your hands roam the deepest core of my sins
Spreading my faith thin into the dept of we
my arch shows no mercy when wanting you
slithering into my slit my body praises you
while you search for your rhythm
I find my beat
Toes curled up,pullin at the sheets
Biting my lip begging you to feed me
But you dont
you love the way your name rolls from the back of my throat
And again i ask more calm for you to feel me
go deep until everything goes black
I awake into the reality of my dream
feenin you oso...

My Life
Save me a smile just in case I'm not strong enough to smile back.
I've been praying for answers
but its something my soul just lacks.
Pacing around memories
Touching dark shadows
Terrified of failure,my heart feels so hollow.
To be at war you don't have to join the service..
I look in the mirror everyday and get nervous..
Afraid of what i'll become
because my world is dark but its never night
I scream in silence because i'm frightened by light.
To love yourself as much as you love the world
Is impossible because I was never given a chance to be...

Our New Beginning
You came along & wanted to love me at my worst
And I couldnt see the beauty behind it so blinded by hurt.
I'm thankful for you in so many ways,your light dried up my tears and turned my storm into sunny days.
With you i'm at my best
I understand real love now and refuse to settle for less
I dont wanna fail us,because of past mistakes
I'll give 110% to make you happy and do what ever it takes
You love me unconditionally,my flaws and all
Even when i feel like i'ma stumble you catch me before my fall
I see pain behind your smile
I promise if you give...

Sorry
I'm sorry for the pain you feel I caused
And i'm sorry for trying to repair the scar you placed on my heart
I'm sorry for my heart continously breaking,and this tear soaked face.
I'm sorry you just didn't know how to be a man and let me go for heavens sake.
I'm sorry for asking and not taking matters into my own hands
and I'm sorry for the way I drown in tears and cuff my face into the palm of my own hands and.... Masking me.
I'm sorry for being the gurl someone misses and not disses.
Most importantly I'm sorry for not being able to continue this ..he..or was it...
