Do You Notice It's a certain demeanor he has, if you stare then you can see,
It's a certain swag he has, I notice when he walks towards me,
That grown man look with them big ole arms,
The kind I love to wrap around me and keep me from harm,
This fine piece of a specimen that god put on this earth,
Thank you Ms. Diane for giving birth, (LOL)
Something about him has changed, it's more confidence within,
More energy to defend the man within,
Weak to strong is such a easy transition,
You have to take notes when you play my position,
Catch the little things that twinkle in his eye,
Even wipe the tear that may fall from inside,
You have to pay attention cause your never know,
Its a hard shell to crack, but we must if we want it to grow,
Sometimes overwhelming and often underestimated,
But never uneducated, sort of sophisticated,
Finding his way through this maze of ... |
Bottle Of Pieces It's a bottle of pieces that you pick up and find,
A bottle with pieces that used to be mine,
Disfigured and misconstrued broken apart,
All while attempting to find a heart,
Something to love and nurture her soul,
Fill that void and cover the hole,
The hole of resentment, torment, and insanity,
Pleading and wishing she could deal with her vanity,
Feeling one way, then feeling another,
Transforming into what they wanted when I was ready to play a lover,
Breaking down everything within herself she worked to build,
Not even realizing she was lowering her shield,
Her protective barrier that kept her on track,
The invisible shield that kept her intact,
With each different relation the person known as her withered down,
No longer the queen who would wear the crown,
More like the peasant who cleaned the palace,
But kept a look on her fa... |
Security I found my safety, I found my net,
It's like a bubble where all my needs are met,
Keeping me grounded and keeping me sane,
Keeping me from veering off in the wrong lane,
That sense of security when your in that space,
The connection you feel is such a great embrace,
It's an invisible shield that nobody can see,
An invisible shield that only applies to me,
Keeping the stress and pain away,
Helping fight my daily battles everyday,
Quieting the negativity that replays in my head,
Taking the lead and assuring me instead,
Stepping into a world where only you two exist,
Taking all the pain and making it desist,
My security actually has two strong arms,
Which keep me safe when I feel I'm in harm,
Holding me tight and suppressing my fears,
Even drying my eyes from wiping my tears,
This is not ... |
Open Risks You are what I want, you are what I need,
I tried to tell you your the only one I see,
I'll waste time just to listen to you breathe,
Breathe life into me as I take a chance,
Not taking any risk's while we combine hands,
Together we will enter this world unknown,
I wouldn't dare leave you, let that be known,
Your peace is my peace when we entwine our hearts,
Your misery is my company once we depart,
If I tell you my past will you carry my pain?
Carry the guilt and not make me feel ashamed?
If I lay my pain on your heart will your love still be unconditional?
Or should I have to bare secrets to keep it more traditional?
I come in pieces can you put me back together?
I'll fill each of your parts, mind, body, and soul,
With my baggage and your baggage we can become whole,
I'll let you take my pain and turn it into passion,&... |
Uncertainty I get what the others don't should that make me proud?
I also do what the other's won't, should I make you bow?
What I want from you is free, nothing is required,
You better quit playing before my love expires,
Your money- you can keep, Your time should be discreet,
I want stability and I want you as my man,
I don't want a man who I call a best friend,
Who still gets the benefit of being with me from within,
Without the possibility of commitment because you are scared,
Or the possibility that you'll cheat because you can't be a faithful man,
I deserve so much and I appreciate your worth,
But what about mine?
Do you not think that I deserve more,
You think what do you for me is all I'll endure?
I guess because I'm still here and I haven't left,
You must feel like you got the best,
The best of both worlds because there is no commi... |
Because of My Skin I get tired of being in this skin, the skin I'm in,
Tired of being mistreated like my color is a sin,
This daily struggle of proven your worth,
This daily struggle because I am diverse,
Who made them God's? Who made them the judge?
Who made these people worthy of being number one?
Over 150 years and we are still enslaved,
150 years and we are only noticed in the grave,
The constant profiling because I am dark,
The constant mistreatment and I still choose not to bark,
When you fight for your rights you end up with none,
They don't wanna see us equal, they wanna give us a gun,
Then shoot us down because they say they feel threatened,
Shoot us down and they are the ones that carry the weapon,
21st century and nothing has changed,
Just found more ways to keep us wearing the chains,
These laws aren't for us, they are ... |
Insecurities Tell me I’m beautiful, but mean it when you do,
Tell me I’m your world, and I’ll believe it if it’s true.
Make me feel secure when I’m freaking out,
Tell me it’s OK because you know what it’s about.
I question my beauty because I gained some weight,
I question your faithfulness because it’s me you chose to date.
I question your ability to love all my flaws,
I question your ability to handle my withdrawals.
Been through so much I just want to feel complete.
I never want to feel I’ll have to compete.
Are you really happy with the person I am?
Do you really consider me as your best friend?
You make me feel good when we are together,
I just want to feel secure that this may be forever.
Nothing is guaranteed, it’s hard to keep a promise,
I need your reassurance to feel the calmness.
When I look in the mirror I want ... |
Attention Hungry Why do we want attention so bad?
Why is it that it has become the new fad?
Used to be basic Nokia's and Pagers,
Now its iPhones and tablets to go with that new blazer.
The world today is so surreal,
Can you tell if anybody is real?
Do you really know someone or do you know their persona?
Now a days everybody wanna be a prima Madonna.
People will do anything to catch a view,
Everything but sit in the front row of that church pew.
So concerned about the opinions of stranger,
Social media has become a really big danger.
Why is it so easy to pretend?
Emotionally, physically, mentally pretend.
That your OK, that your doing good, that your this when in reality your that?
Peoples lives are our entertainment.
We have all the thoughts in the world of others except for our own attainments.
Selfies and filters we hiding our pain,
Hiding our true... |
Stalker Of Love A Stalker of love following me,
Creeping through the shadows at the end of the night,
With no idea of what he wants to be,
Following my love and affection without a fight,
It's deeper then riches, it's deeper then fame,
I'm deeper to him than his boys in the game,
I'm like a drug without a name,
The heart that beats in his body, feeling untamed,
I clutch his soul for corrupt he won't go,
The stalker takes my love and spreads it around,
It's the deepest love he'll ever know,
A sprinkle of love her is what he's found,
As long as it's my heart he follows,
And all my love he seeks to swallow.

Why I Wear It I wash my face to dispose of the disguise,
That I often, but daily apply at night,
The smiles, the giggles, all seem fake,
But the surrealness of my life is all I can take,
I apply the mascara, and the eye shadow with a brush,
To hide the tears and the redness of the eyes (thats a must),
If you could just take a second to look deep inside,
Your see the women that I became overnight,
I apply the concealer, the lipgloss, and the blush,
To cover the deformities that plague me with a rush,
I apply the lotion to smooth out my skin,
Of the rough hard edges plaguing me within,
The finishing touch is the lipgloss to my lips,
Which beautifys the bluntness of the tip (of my tounge that is),
I put on my earrings to enhance my glow,
And then my gold necklace to go with the flow,
So many things damaging me inside,
I often ask myself "How do you su... |
