rain thoughts

today it rained but after a few hours it stopped no it still raining in my mind , while i stand in the cold rain just looking out
into the crowd of people and their talking and laughing together. while I'm soaked with water, as people walked bypass with rushed and tumbled steps. mock me, glare at me you can't stand me. I'm reminded my days of my childhood it's been like
this before. even back then i was feared and was hated by those who did not know me, there were time i felt like crap, these feelings
still exist in my heart. My closes friends from way back when have forgotten me. all i have left now is my rhymes and poems, but my first love is music. the music keeps me cool calm and still my only company. now the rain stopped i feel good i realized
that i'm not standing in the rain alone but standing with friends waiting for the sunshine so we can go to park and start to ball.

no clue

See through the glass
my happy face I put on, it's an everyday mask
Dissipate!!! hate everyday I always get this cold plate
I clinched my fist, I'm not just mad I'm pissed.....
as snakes hide in the grass
illusionist friends of whom I'll never see again
they want to contaminate my mind with hate
I only know desolated places I continue to
find myself all alone and isolated
I arrived at my destination.
Is the world designed to keep me alone to myself?
when I'm in trouble who can I ask for help?
too many emotions to keep in control
negative thoughts of you I need let it go
disassemble my mind to find lost thoughts
to many things going through my mind, it's gets clogged
disobedient mind never listens to mouth
what I say is what just comes out.

not cool, poor me

not a slave to the fabric of popularity
pants don't sag
could careless about your faded look on your pants
simple eyes only follow what's already been done
I may not be cool in the worlds definition
yes I hear your criticism, I'm the verbal victim
I could careless whose or what's hot

appreciate

I took and do take my body for granted
some people cannot walk without any assistance
but I take my legs for granted
some aren't able to see at all
I still have the ability to move all my limbs
a mind that controls my mouth
I appreciate that I have these ability's
to be able to write words of imagery
to walk right along you
show respect with hand shake
look directly into your eyes, to see you smile
allow me to hug, shoulders that allow me to shrug
I have a voice that will not be silenced but heard
ears that allow to hear what the world says
and its beautiful songs that are sung
to taste elegant food with this tongue

don't know

New

My mind gives birth to a new thought
With each time that I was thinking
Child of my mind is given life
I give him reason to live as I write.
The blank landscape is now filled with
Couple of words that take shape
My mind never thinks of skinny thoughts
Instead I think of fat and out the box things
One of the vast words that found the way on my page
Put a new child between my new son
They are working together so well
Toss a new daughter in time. These will argue and fight
Throw an entrance in the middle of a sentence
Few traps here and there
I just gave birth to new poem

To fast

Rushing on home the woman was fast and gone out the door
Supposedly she ran to her car to pick up something
Two minutes later she comes back and yells out loud
Where are my car keys?
Rushed back to her seat and looked under it.
I had her keys and I gave it to her. I told her to slow down.

Waiting for a hero

Waiting for a hero


I was strolling throughout the woods one day the road was too much of a hassle so I figured I take a short cut for once. I was confronted by a beast with an ill tongue, a common thief pulled out a knife and threatens to kill me if I did not give him my pouch.
Stupidly I ran, he gave chase, I ran and ran, I figured that I had lost him. He pulled in front of me he was scary looking, but not as vicious as the beast that stood behind him.
Without hesitation the demon beast swiped off the thief head and devoured it.
His fangs were sharp his smell reeked of some foul smell that I never sniffed before.
Slowly the beast came even closer I swore I thought he could taste my fear
As he licked his spit that ran down his mouth and I saw his blood stained teeth.
“I’m dead” I said to myself and there was no hope for me.

Then suddenly he came out of nowhere
He was strong and tall his eyes were sharp, focused as I watched as he
Killed the beast with not much effort and still showed compassion towards the beast.
Such a man never have I seen him before with strength beyond my comprehension.
I asked what was his name and he proclaimed it was Hercules.
You are him, the son born from a common woman and your father is a Greek god.
He stood up and I could not believe my eyes, he stood at the feet of the beast.
I thank him and I was truly grateful then we departed from each other.
I thought that it was the last time that would ever hear his name
A couple of days later his name again.

no title yet

My day begins went the sun finishes it lap around the earth
I try not to hold onto the day
Darkness is inviting me to explore when it dawns
Sit and ogle at the silent sparkles in the sky
Filled with a quick happiness when light faded
The nocturnal pen moves even swifter
Writing gets even deeper
Loved by the mist of the night
I’m persuaded to keep midnight mind, what do I mean?

Man I need some money,
reached in my pocket and pulled out lint, I'm starving.
I need money I know that we can't live without it.
I need money to provide food for my belly
my stomach growling and I'm getting skinny
Man I need some money
it's only money man, how can paper make you do that?
paper can make you bend in odd ways to get it.
I would say I'm not crazy but the streets are hiring.
look how fast you make the cash
all you got to do is not get caught
run on the streets all day and night
doing all kinds of wrong but you mean right.
when nothing else works
I'm looking to rob that purse
it may sound reckless
but it's looks better then that check
the street always looking for new employees to rob and kill
I been lied to, so should I start my application by robbing a local liquor store?
violence seems to be paying you pretty well
your work is what you see as target
"I got work for you" says the streets.

sorry

for the pain that I caused you
I was lost and didn't know what to do
made a few million mistakes.
all the misery I caused to you
please accept my apologies, I'm really sorry
so many times I seen you cry
I know the reason, there's no reason to ask why
I guess I hurt you so badly
no doubt that I care about you madly
no matter how much I hate you at times, we're' still family

I questioned what love really is

I invented a new perspective, I just sat on a yellow blanket and just watched two individual hug and kiss so I can write a love poem.
However all was not well for a few moments I saw the misery that came with love. They argued and fought very loudly, they disturbed their own atmosphere.
Before I knew they were back to what they were doing and she cried and she embraced him and I saw a smile. I said to myself "what the hell is going on". The crow also looked confused too I wanted to go up to them and ask some questions about what just happen but an invisible fence kept me from even approaching. I reach for my cupcake and that crow pecked my naked hand.

cool

follow the latest trends

Copy the look of all your friends

Now which one of you is different?

Trends is another way of entrance

Once you enter you automatically blend

Are we designed to please the world eye?

Call me the definite uncool.

We been told in our ear to fit in.

I’m in the mood for something real

Something that is only you, something I can feel.

Dangerous emotions

Love is a dangerous thing it poses a huge risk to your heart and mind
Love can sometimes make you blind.
Put handcuffs on trust and maybe out of luck
You will probably be stuck with a real thing called love.
Then again people sometime disappear
Because of a foolish thing called fear.

Your former lover stands up with bitter feelings
Hatred is then used for healing
A dangerous emotion that they have chosen
That was once lost in the past
But now that feeling is now back in their grasp.
You lost your connection that was so true
You are lost now and your heart is skewed.

The stars

The stars are alive but the day time is here for now
The stars are above us at all times
The daytime star is usually shunned by bad weather or the night
When the sun runs around the other side of the earth
Night is then given birth
Dressed in a elegant black cloak with specks of sparks
The night is given to us, now we see the moon
As one great white snowball in the sky
Let me see the stars

I hate you!

every time I see your face it brings back my hate
what could I say I hate you and your face!
just knowing you exist makes me sick.

hiding himself away

avoiding every encounter he makes with people
conserving his eyes for people who understand him
sit back and relaxed as he remembers his past
he has no use for today
he doesn't talk much
his plain words have a certain shine
he's heard through poetic words

cupcake

my cupcake is standing outside in the cold
right by the yellow fence, this crow only perches on my gate.
it was obvious she was cold, she was naked, her body shook
from head to toe.

Closet terror

there is something in my closet
it has been seen by eyes before
but at the very thought of it I am terrified.
the beast in the closet with its red eyes
he slept there when I was young
through the entire night
I would hear his attempts to open the door
slowly I would hear the creak
as the door opened, my heart
pounding faster and faster
and soon as the door was fully open
he would disappear
crept back into the depths.

we wear the masks

smile while you're in deep pain
feeling like the world understands your feelings
yes we all the masks that disguise all of our crippled emotions
going on like we are not broken driven

stiff upper lip is looking tough
with the chest puffed out but so phony
deep down you're really puny.
I mistook that smile that you put on
but really, you have no idea what's going on with your life

hold back those tears
walking around with a face that showed no fear
wear that hood to cover our eyes
a secretive emotion that you wish you could show

Death porch

Where I live is not safe
sometimes it's peaceful
but i can't really trust these streets
sometime people shoot off over nonsense
a life constantly watched by the reaper
gun shots are not unfamiliar to these ears
we could die anytime sitting on death's porch
like I'm sitting and just waiting to die
like on death's porch

people

people fear those things are unknown
people fear those who are different from them
it restricts us from learning from each other
as we all have dreams and nightmare that is more terrifying than lonlieness
we don't like people, just because we don't know them.

Mud walk

So we meet again my friend how long has it been?
how have you been? how has life been to you?
"oh it has been hectic, my life is a shamble, the house was burned down."
"To make it worse I am going to lose my job, a company I devoted my life to"
I'm sorry to hear that my friend. Come on let's go get some coffee we have a lot of catching up to do, I hope my little gestures help you cheer up a bit my friend.

Persona

I am shy-not talkative at first
I want that slick sly tongue that speaks out ice cool words
I will always say the wrong things at sometimes
Give me the lines that attract instead of repel.
Not much to look at
I want to be more in people’s eyes then what they see me for
Caution always steps up when I first meet new people
More confidence is needed.
I used my dark eyes to look at everything
More love needs to get involved.

US

Walking along by my shadow
On to see her, that blissful face
Every single hour, everyday my love further grows
Thinking about her helps my me with my pace
Almost there, she’s waiting outside
Leap out at me with a right punch
I Parried with a kiss on the right cheek side
I very much like girls a with a little guts, so what?
She smiled, we locked eyes
I planted one kiss on her face
She embraced me with grateful sigh
Thanks for the laughs and that gentle grace.

till

Sit next to the window
And see to explore what is out there
The streets are alive with people and thousands of
steps
As we move to the right and left
Hold on to your belief and will
Have an intervention with the world as you talk to it
The good are not good as they plug and charge up their
halos for the next day
What is real? When everyone is afraid to truly reveal
how they feel.

The cup is tilted to it side but it does not roll
It’s a fiasco when things are kept back and held back,
let’s have it roll.

hold on

Rushing on home the woman was fast and gone out the door
Supposedly she ran to her car to pick up something
Two minutes later she comes back and yells out loud
Where are my car keys?
Rushed back to her seat and looked under it.
I had her keys and I gave it to her. I told her to slow down.

solo ink

I’ve been watching him for quite some time
He just sits and writes in his notebook.
People pass by and don’t even flash him a smile nor do they give him a glance.
So he writes more, more about something I’m not sure of.
After all of the watching I decided to get up and go to talk to him
I asked “how are you doing” he gave me a deep silence
I asked again “how are you doing” I got a fine out of him
“What are you writing” I asked “a poem” he replied.
His poem reached at my stomach, his devastating cold stare was burning my back
“Aren’t you lonely” I asked as I read his words…
He said “there are worst things then being alone”
I was wrong to think that he was lonely because being by him self was fun for him.
I walk away from him, I looked back and he was smiling again.

another attempt at love poem,dang

The way her face yanks up a smile when she sees me
I see her and I smile, seeing her brings me her smell
A fragrant that is only her.
We have our sweet and sour moments and days
The reason I continue to breathe is because of her
My love elixir, me next to you is the perfect picture
My lady of my life
Your name is on the tip of my tongue.
Sugar and salt don’t blend
But you and I make it work.

visible ghost

Visible ghost

He is seen but he is not spoken to

His busy eyes scanned the area searching for contact

But all he got was no acknowledgment.

Sits alone by himself all day everyday

Alone in the cold

No one wants to sit next to him

Deep within his deep dark lonely eyes he seeks kindness from strangers.

Thought he had friends but he is alone again

The now visible ghost stands and sits in the back row.

Through the times of pain he puts on a smile

I know it’s fake because being happy was never his style

It was time for him to be scared so he up and left

Nobody bothered to call to him

Everyday he is empty, no one inputs his existence

To exist as a non existence.

random

never met a new word like this
glad to see that I finally made it
for so many years I been crazy
but ever since I met this lady
my mind has not been right lately.


Sit back and sip on this drunken mood
my mind and heart not know the tricks of this trade
what if.......

rain love

Rain love

On a hot steamy night as I walk along the street. Night time I still feel the heat.
I got tired so I put my pen and pad on bench and I sat.
I am just sitting outside. I thought to myself why won’t it rain?
Is the rain petrified of the sun? Is that why there is no rain to come?

I personally like the rain because it temporarily washes away my pain.
Some hate the rain and hide away from it as much as they can.
Not me though when it pours I have another plan.
I will be in the middle of its drenched soaked streets is where my lonely self will stand.

I grow tired of this boring and so calm and balm weather.
I love the tears of the sky that cleanse blurriness out of my sight.
I love to feel the chill of the water. The icy wind that blows across my face
Just so I can make sure that I am alive.
The sun does not care for me under its lights there is only pain and misery.
Let it rain so I can be happy for the moment the skies pain will be my pleasure.
I know rain does not last long so those moments I will treasure.
With each drop that drips and falls off my eye lids and rolls to my bottom lip
Down to my chin I will always look up and grin.

another attempt at love poem

Another attempt at love poems



The days are long when
I’m not with you

I try to keep it together but I deeply miss you

You give me joy and pleasure. I’m so glad that you

unlock your fence

To allow this little crow in your heart. Fed me with

your cupcakes that you claimed you baked but I knew

they were store bought.

Your sense of humor was and still is lovely.

My naked heart is exposed to your feelings and it

cries out to yours, yearning for love. My yellow shy

color feelings are now deep reed full of bliss because

you are the one I want to be with

Attempted love poem

Attempted love poem

Take me back to a time when we first met
I introduce myself to you, back then I would treasure every second I spent time with you it was a blissful moment
You are weird while people fed ducks you fed a crow

Take me back to a time when I first went to your house
With its yellow broken down fence
The cupcake so sweet which was you
My feelings didn’t hesitate
Now we are married, let me see you naked

your choice

If you wish it so….

If you wish it so then by all means go ahead, hate me,

ignore me and call a useless existence…if you wish it

so.



If you wish it so then by all means go ahead, be cool

with me, we’ll have fun and do whatever...if you wish

it so.



Which one will you choose?



if you wish it, so be it.

Feel and See

Touch my feelings by looking into my eyes
deep, deep within me lies only bleak traces of happiness
my eyes only know how to be lonely
fear, solitude, loneliness I'm not strong enough to pull away from them
so easily captured by these things and trapped.
sent messages of help to others by extending my hand
will these feelings always stay by my side?
Why can't my feelings scatter so I can pick out which feeling I want?
I know these feelings for far too long, like I’m married to them
no, I want a divorce from these social restraints
see me for me
if you're so deep then see me for what's underneath

Victim

As I slither around the ground
slowly stalking the victim that is you.
quickly you run, I will chase you down
from down the jungle to the streets of the city
once I have you I will not let you go.
soon I will have you in my grasp
I am that in the grass.
patiently waiting for one false move on your behalf
in that instant, that will be my chance
there you are my little friend
I waited so long to see you again
this is our last meeting
a pat on the tail is my last greeting.

Young arrogance

I’m young, feel like nothing can stop me

Show off be loud

To be the center of the crowd

Young with limitless cockiness

I think I am invincible

Impervious to pain

That is my mindset

Saying whatever I want without

Thinking about what comes out

The consequences of my mouth

My attitude is not care others feelings

Sickening overconfidence

That is young arrogance.

Iluusion of a day

roll with me on this day
dimmed lights as we step out
deep hearts filled with fantastic mirrors that reflects us
day turns to night
no way to get back to where we used to be
it's o.k as long I have a lid on my worries, I'm not worried
darkness is a little afraid of me
to dark to even see my own hand in front of me
are you still with me?
as we stumble into each other
risky hands tries to find yours in the shadows, just to hold you
stupid hands should have never that
I was trying to let go, however you held on tightly
you can't see it but that made me feel happy
the lights came back on
but your grip on my hand was pretty damn strong
why won't you let go of me?
smiled in my face...
as we gazed into each other eyes
I didn't recognize this feeling
told myself to wake up I must be dreaming
when she realizes who she with......
look directly into my lonley eyes and hugged my heart
paralyzed mouth said nothing....
what...is...going...on....
I was manipulated by her eyes
slowly rubbed my hands with soft fingers....
the moolight with its brilliant light shows you to me
greatful holds on with warmth
I woke up with sweat on my hands
a word was written on it, it said "goodbye for now"
was it a dream, that's what it seems.
