Unfocused

Candy coated
Taste so sweet
Painted illusions
Medicine
Daily vitamin
Doctors orders

Wanted a new name, got confused so I stuck with the same.
Amazing when it is you that is fooled,
playing a game with no rules.
Looking for a lover, but he just wanted sex.
Now I place him with the many who are my ex.
Thought Money?
House?
Car?
Quick to take me behind bars!

Oh detectives ask to many questions.

In church I perch but they never could keep it straight.
Hyprocrites how do you rate?
Usually by myself, guess I am to not have a connection,
affection.
I see through that where they choose to aime.
Emergency road flames.
Chances taken by the looser.
Gambling lables the joker.
To just smile and swallow ain't my style.
Running shoes!
Never high heels.
Two minutes in my place,
lets see how you feel?

Just A Little

Have a little faith in me!
How much the cost?
Not here to borrow but a dream, or have strength to paddle upstream.
I seldom hear good news.
For trying times left me down and blue.
A person who made the fall, was excited to live at all.
Standing, no smiles  casted my way.
Answer this, What is it that helps you through a long day?
It's hard when low to gather ideal defense.
How is it that someone can be proud, leaving others to die on sidelines.
They think their winning, but entry declines.
The tape that spells f.i.n.i.s.h.ed is not one to be paid.
When it's time to sleep how do you feel with the bed you have made?

Outside

Sitting under a willow tree.
Kicking back, enjoy how it shades.
The sun shines bright as the day is long.
In ease but struggle where I belong.
Different tempos my feet catches beats.
Now I lisston to the breeze flowing through the leaves.
Most the time I chase my tail.
Day dream of casting in as captain to my ship that has sailed.
Makes me laugh and cry how I search in the tides.
For I could not set quest in able to find, such a depth journey.
It's in the Authors Irony.
Nor is a mission accomplished with friends on either side.
To gather what is best prolonged, the treasures that hide inside.

whatever

It's another bust!

Good moods brake

People hating

taking

sunsets

out on the horizon

Verizon

distance up ahead

settle in bed

Predictions

Frictions

It meets in the sheets

Between the ears

It's ugly head rears

Adverbs

Absurd

obstacles

Leaping

keeping

capturing

junk!!

Starts with a twinkle

Ends with wrinkles

HOPE WAS TANGIBLE

Now forgettable

I was able!

Washed away under the table.

There you are

Gazing at the stars really your not so far.
There looking down on the spot I stand.
Tiny in your hand
As the wind kicks up, it rearranges the sky.
Here eye to eye
It's your promise no weapons shall be formed against
shall prosper
that you already have my defense
I am stronger
Heart ache I no longer
If this feeling could never end
I would give my all
reach the night high, tall
The way you think, I as your precious daughter
Your upset when this world tries to slaughter
you don:t forget
alone I am worth it
you take
how your tears can fill lakes
oceans
i have never seen
you are true
know all i do
i believe

THE OFFER

What I am, is my worth
This I'll share with you
Abundant cigarette kisses
one purple tattoo It's what is talked about
when the microscope is out
reaction my attraction
judgement
comment
The color purple is my favorite
on my back
Behind, the past
Memories out last
What was once, is no more
Question, what am I looking for?
Approval
Acceptance
clearance
Uncomfortable
Discontent
wondering around in dream of rescue
pursued surviving
striving
Stuck with the same offer
Ask my father he"ll tell you it's true
I am over due
careless
Yes less!
Than he expected
rejected
Conversation foreign
over my head
At least I have something to give
You want it?
cigarette kisses
and my rebel tattoo

THE TRUTH HURTS

Suddenly silent
focused on the whispers
defensive
painfully true
smirks disguise intent of closing my doors
slamming shut one by one
standing with weak legs
In shock
mocking
tears flow full with your reflection
stunned
as the spot light shines in my eyes
on stage
naked
help, anyone, please!
It's not fair
Crowd gathering to watch the snake strike to kill
erase filth my hands supply
is this all I've become?
all the positive forgotten
finger feed my mouth with sweet dreams,
self esteem
at least won't you whisper lies?

What Eyes Can Not See

CONVINCED IT'S A SPIRITUAL BATTLE.

BELIEVING IN, THAT WE CAN'T NOT SEE.

FAITH OF OUR FATHERS

FORGIVE ONE ANOTHER

FOR EVERYONE IS IN THE SAME WAR

THEY PLAY WITH FIRE UNKNOWINGLY

POSSESSED TURN MEN BLIND!

THICK MUCUS COVERS DILATED PUPILS

ALONE WE FEEL AS SPIRITS LIE

DEVASTATION INTO THE DEVILS STATION

TURNS OUR CHANNEL, STUCK ON OBSESSION

SMASHES SELF ESTEEM WITH WORDS;

NEVER, WHY NOT?, ONLY ONCE, NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW?, UNWANTED, RUN AWAY!

FOLLOWS WITH A ECHO HA HA HA!

SO RAPID HUMANS MUST HAVE ON ARMOR, WEAPONS, AND ARMY TO WIN.

MORE SOPHISTICATED ARE THEIR TRICKS SINCE ADAM AND EVE.

MANY SLEEPLESS NIGHTS DEMONS TAILOR TRAPS.

THE ONES THAT WORK ON ME WON'T WORK ON YOU.

THE ONES THAT WORK ON YOU I BARELY UNDERSTAND

FEAR IS WHAT SHUTS MOUTHS!

RIGHTEOUS WE ARE

GODS CHILDREN

WHY WOULD they WORK SO HARD IF IT WASN'T WORTH SO MUCH?

SOULS ON THE GAMBLING TABLE

IT TRIES AND SEPARATES FAMILY, FRIENDS.

FOOLISH TO OPEN THE DOOR WELCOMING TORMENT, DARKNESS INTO OUR HOMES.

FORGIVE, DRAW CLOSE TO GOD AND THE PEOPLE WITH LOVE

FOR IF YOU DO SO YOUR LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.

Distant Measure

Rich words of scripture
Sweetness from a savior
Many try to find or prove identity
Connection of character
So many lost
I Included!
Concentrated
Understanding, vision deluded
Search for a place in this world.
Just one world.
Ever a match would be life's destiny
Like a magical wand, yet fantasy
Wild how we never are satisfied
Disowned self
Rebuild
Then hide
While scream inside
At ease when saints reminds that here isn't where it counts
In heaven is where our treasures are given
Demons circle the door
Their nails tapping the floor
Spitting words of complication
Temptation
Gauged every time I try to play
Long shadows end the day
Where do I go in this world?
Belong in this world?
Faced with a never ending story
Average life
But for what I have I give
God all the Glory

Dash

Quick I whip
I dip
I sway
I flash
I mash
Release the trash
Sorry you must go away
So long
I prolong
It's sometimes hard to tell
I hop
I run
I get me some
For long, not my style
I smile
Then go
I flow
And question
Why do I dash so?

Inviting

Loose restrains
Unleash control
Untie the knots!
Relax tense muscles
Freedom!
Rebirth!
Turn knobs
Pour Out
Far from leaking faucets
My cup overflows
Trust the loves host
I turn so my ears can hear
Yet knowledge at demons invades the mind
Illusions tires the soul
Sought out ghostly shadows
It's expected that night falls
Intruding, haunting, memory's walls
Cemented chained to traveling feet with conspiracy
Designs a trap
Covered with branches of self doubt
Brushes of pity
Speak!
Begin the process
Recovery of Breath
Sweet Zen
Rejoice in words confining
Here I stay
Arms held out for the inviting

DISCOVERED

MY WORTH IS MORE THAN TEMPORARY SATISFACTIONS

PROGRESSION EX ORDINARY

FEVER BRAKES WHEN NO ONES AROUND

KICKS YOUR ASS

PUSHES YOU DOWN

IT TAKES, TOKES ,JOKES, SOMETIMES POKES

DEPENDS HOW THICK IS THE SMOKE

FROM START, EASY IT ALL LOOKS

ELEVATION, POWER INVOLVEMENT IT HOOKS

YOUR HEART NEEDED TO HEAL SO YOU NUMBED THAT FEELING

THOSE NOW SMILING TOMORROW AIM TO KILL

WHEN GETTING OVER ON THAT DEAL

MONEY IS THE ROOT TO EVIL

DRUGS MAKES THAT PLANT GROW WATERED BY THE DEVIL

SOME SLEEP TOO MUCH

OVERALL THIS WORLD IS TOUGH

CHASE THE HIGH, SKIP THE LOW

LESSONS ARE YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW

HEARTS TURN COLD, FACES OLD

TAKES WHAT GROWTH YOU COULD OF HAD

MAKES FAMILIES SO SAD

WHY DO WE CUT OFF OUR EMOTIONS, LIKE THAT'S OUR SECRET POTION?

ARE WE SUCH DEEP THINKERS OR ARE WE GANGSTERS?

IN THE FIGHT, THE WAR

COME DANCE THE DANCE ON THE FLOOR

WATCH YOUR FEET CUZ MANY STEP ON TOES

WATCH HOW MANY PEOPLE AREN'T YOUR FOES

KISS THE POISON GO AHEAD EXPLORE

YOU'LL WANT NOTHING LESS JUST MORE, MORE, AND MORE.

TIRED

SEASONS CHANGE

WISDOM GAINED

FACES, CHARACTERS NEVER STAY THE SAME

FALLEN IN LOVE WITH PIECES OF THE HUMAN ART

BUT NEVER GIVEN INTO THE WHOLE HEART

WHY DO WE BELIEVE IN LIES?

DISGUISES

IS IT CAUSE IT'S WHAT WE NEED?

HOPE?

OR HOW WE COPE?

DESPERATE TO APPROVE OF DEFECTION AS A BLESSING

WALK IN SWAMPS SEARCHING FOR A HAVEN

CLOSE EYES, TRUST THAT GUT FEELING

IT WAS SUNNY THAN

LEAFS HAVE FALLEN SINCE

I, MYSELF NO LONGER CONVINCED

HURT FROM MY OWN CHOICES AND BLAMING YOU FOR IT

I'LL TAKE IT AS MANY LESSONS LEARNED CATEGORIES UNDER BULLSHIT

TRICKS ARE FOR KIDS

NOW YOU SEE ME

TO BE THE SAME I WON'T

BACK AWAY NO TIME FOR PLAY

YOUR NAME I WILL NEVER SAY

I'LL CHANGE MY MIND RIGHT IN TIME

NEW DIRECTION AND AFFECTION

MEMORIES FADE AS THE CLOCK TICKS FED UP WITH THE TRICKS

YOU'LL BE SORRY AND I'LL BE WRONG

BUT AS IT'S SAID I'LL BE GONE

SO LONG

NEVER SO HAPPY OFF ON A NEW ADVENTURE

YOU ACT LIKE A CHILD IMMATURE

I ALREADY KNOW I AM THE BEST YOU COULD GET

DON'T FORGET MY NAME

YOU'VE BE BLESSED BY KARI LEGGETT

UP

Ignite flame.

Straight to the gun powder, BANG!

Yesterday same song I sang.

I really didn't know any better.

In Christ followed his spirit, now together.

Not magic, nor over night.

But gently guided by his light.

Don't think he wants us perfect.

Even dirty, unloved he knows what our worth is.

Our testimony, we shall over come.

Now there's a new hymn on my tongue.

Amazing Grace how sweet is the sound?

Looking up, not down, or around.

I am not made to be in bondage!

Won't carry the heavy luggage!

Believe he heals. New life my King reveals.

I choose to fight away the old.

Jesus Christ my savior, his plan unfolds.......

CAUGHT

YOU HAVE DESIRES


I CAN TELL YOUR MESMERIZED BY THE FIRE

HAVE YOUR SECRETS IN THOSE FLAMES

FELT SO GOOD, HAVE YOURSELF TO BLAME

YOUR NOT SO PURE IN PERFECTION

GAVE INTO SELF FOR ATTENTION

MANY GET PUSHED IN

CONTRIBUTES ADDICTION

HYPNOTIZED WOKEN WITH EVICTION

TIME HAS COME IT'S CONVICTION

THE SPARKS FLY FAR WHEN GIVEN IN

OVER AND OVER TO THOSE SINS

HEAT TEMPERATURE UNCONTROLLED

WITH A BLAST TAKES YOUR SOUL

MORALS GONE NOW A SLAVE

IF ONLY YOU HAD SAID NO AND BEHAVED

1ST DEGREE BURNS MELTS FORMATION

YOU'VE ALREADY FILLED OUT THE APPLICATION

TAKE THE CHANCE YOU MIGHT GET CAUGHT

WHY PLAY WITH TEMPTATION, YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN BOUGHT!

BITE THIS

TEETH GRIND, GULP ATTACKED


CONCERNED?

NOT LIKLY

WHAT COULD IT BRING?

MORE PRODUCT

CONTROL OR MASK?

HOLD YOUR TONGUE EVEN IF YOU MUST USE IT TO CHEW

IF LOVE? THEN SHOW

NO WORDS ARE NEDED TO DISCRIBE EXERCISE SELF CONTROL

FEELING COME AS WELL AS THEY GO

TALK IS CHEAP

LOVE IS A INVESTMENT

FORGIVE

COMFORT TAKE A TASTE OF PEACE

DON'T USE YOUR MOUTH FOR MANIPULATION

OPEN WIDE AND CLOSE, BITE DOWN!

FOR IT MIGHT BE THE ONLY THING THAT KEEPS YOU ON SOLID GROUND
