Thank you lord

I thank the lord for the day when he brought you into my life,changing my life,my destiny and give me new life ,so if you have someone special that always bee true show love and take notice in every thing the do.I could never take for granted and what he did for me.Hes the type that well never let you down helping me find the light when no one came around,down when i was broke,down when i had money.

So if i die tonight hold me tight and don’t ever let me go.I guess you can say I owe my life to you,the only dream that really matters is to be with you.

To Aptly Sleep

Come quick! quick!

Check your breath:

The air, quite sick,

Makes our lungs come thick.

Though we die but slowly,

We will surely die.

Oh, my! oh, my!

I cry, I cry.

But when we’re dead,

We’ll then be right.

At least we’ll aptly sleep

When day’s gone night.

STILL IAM WAITTING

STILL I AM WAITING
================
I was waiting from the school
for my lessons and for my teachers
I was waiting to get a good job and
to marry a girl to my life
i was waiting in a nursing home
to see the new face of my son
I was waiting to admit my son in a school
to make him as a fittest to survive in this world
I was waiting to have a nice daughter in law
to look after my son’s needs
I was waiting to my retirement from my work
to relax myself in melting in hymns

a hopeless plea to my soldier

So frightened
So Scared to die alone
So withdrawn
I dreamed of death last night, while in his comfortable charisma.
Feeling it breathing and taunting down my spine, like a vulture begging to surrender to this tunnel of darkness.
Fear is crawling through my veins; due to him and his adamant state to egress.
That last look and touch will be the finale of secrets that we silently and lovingly communicate.
My eyes are screaming for him to stay within my heart, but my voice cowardly accepts the coming fate.

again

give me an insight to your thoughts.
smile down into my eyes, while you eloquently kick me down.
the confusion hurts worse than the ultimate decision to let me go.
i welcome you to cast my soul to an eternal pain.
My flesh is slowly burning
overwhelmed with all of this mixed hate, oozing with the desire to love.
I feel the energy flowing from your heart to mine.
while the wall u have around it crushes and bruises my desire and warmth.
So push me away.
find me..
then brutely shove.
again

Afternoon delight

When they fucked
God woke up,
fell off his throne
and rolled down the stairway from heaven.

Landing on earth he looked at the state of things and said
“My Self! Did I do this?”

The answer to this question
involved admitting either that
he wasn’t
omniscient
or omnipotent
or that he had fucked up,
all intolerable conclusions,
of course.

So he doddled off to an old gods home.
Where his reception was
enthusiastically hostile.

He had, after all,
been responsible
for most of their retirements.

Left

I didn’t want to leave you
because I didn’t want to hurt you
and I didn’t want to be alone

You didn’t want to leave me
because you didn’t want to hurt me
and you didn’t want to be alone

We left,
we hurt,
we survived,
as you do.
And we are alone.

My lost self

I became a person that I no longer know
I live with a stranger in my head
I forget how it’s like to be happy
And I no longer recall what it is to be sad

I pass my days stuck in the yesterday that I seek
I’m an empty promise, forgotten as you speak
Some words never intended to be said

Just dream of the future, sometimes at night
But don’t work it today, disappointing everyone around
‘Cause my self is lost, and don’t want to be found
