Expectant Mother

she is gentle-yet strong-meek yet bold.
she is a woman to behold.
she is a expectant mother as we can see.
waiting for her child to be set free.

sleepng in the fetal position-does'nt help her disposition.
feeling the kicks at home and at work
and thinking that all men are jerks.

she wonders about the nine months that she must go through.
if she will have the strength to survive
and if her husband will be by her side.

when she is in her chair at night
she sees her stomach as a glorious sight.
there is a child in her waiting to be fed
and does'nt want her to go to bed.

the baby wants to feel their mothers touch
and the soothing words that she speaks.

The Rose

the rose is a beauty to behold
it is loved by most women on this earth
is it because the rose is like a woman?
when it opens up and spreads its petals
it shows the beauty within and the softness to the touch.
yet just like a woman it has its thorns to protect its beauty.
so is the woman who has been betrayed-she will never be the same
she will protect the beauty like a spider protects its web.

so this is what i see.

the beauty of a woman which is locked up inside
will bloom like a rose with nothing to hide.
her beauty will be admired by men of all nations
they'll try to get to her to feel the sensation.
the sensation of knowing she is the one
who could raise the setting sun.
so as men we have to take care
for once we get into their hair
they'll be no way of turning back

Women*** What Can I Say

women-what can i say about them!
there is so much to say that it can't be written in a day.

they are the foundation of this earth
giving everything in life some worth.
they are the soul and inspiration of all men.
it is very rare that we will admit that we are wrong
but! we'll agree-just so we can get along.

in all relationships we must learn to live together.
so things will start to get better.
but to hear a woman it is one sided
'and we have to buy it'.

they know that without the female- life as we know it will cease to exist, and we will surely die.
this is the reason we continue to try.

they know that they are the ones who give birth
and as children we suckle their breasts so that
we can get stronger.

Tour Of Heaven

he took me on a tour of heaven
just so that i could see.
what the future would now hold for me.

he allowed me to look down upon the earth
with all its aches and pains.

he said: this is why i took you
for an angel you will be.
to help relieve the world
of all this misery.

i walked throughout the heavens
in total amazement and awe.
the poor, the sick, the rich and famous
all this is what i saw.

there was so many colors
more than this earth could ever see.
flowers of every nature, and the buzzing

The RAPIST She Fought Back

(5/9/12)

I was coming home late from a date, and did not look
To see if anyone was around or was following me.
When out of the darkness he jumped out
And put his hand on my mouth.

Then put a knife to my throat and told me
"don't be stupid if you want to live
To me your body you will give."

She was always told: "don't put your life in harms way
And if you can - run away".
And if someone grabs you from behind
You must stomp on his foot as hard as you can
He will loosen up his hand. (which she did)

She swung her arm back as hard as she could
The pain in his crotch - he understood.
He dropped the knife and released his hold

She Devil

She came into my life for her own viscous needs
Just to plant her hateful seed.
She thought that she could use me as her tool
And that I was the perfect fool.

She mistook kindness for weakness.
She thought that she could get her foot in
And create havoc and sin.

Little did she know I was under gods care
And with the world, his love I would share.

Known as the she devil of man
And for all mankind she had a plan.
To destroy the love, faith, and hope
That god had given
And with out that - to her we’d be driven.

Like the snake that she is - hiding in the grass
Waiting for someone to pass.

Lifes Pressures

so many tears i cry
and no one to dry my eyes.

so much pain that i go through
and i don't know what to do.

lifes pressures are getting to me.
is this the way it's meant to be?
so many people with cold hearts.
of this - i must be a part?

peer pressure, work pressure
money problems all around
and no answers to be found.
so i decided to turn to me
and to set myself free.

what is it that i believe in most
the answer was- THE FATHER, THE SON, THE HOLY GHOST.
so to my LORD i gave him my problems

He Kept The Love Alive

How clearly I recall the night that I fell in love
You was the star that fell from above.
You became the stardust in my eyes
Leaving me totally hypnotized.

All my life I had searched for you
God saw my pain and followed through.
I had became so blindly in love
That I did not see, that you was trying to talk to me.
Then your words like knives cut deep into my soul
How much pain can my heart hold.

You say you love me, but that it’s good-bye
And walk away with tears in your eyes.
Is it something I’ve done to make you change?
I’ll accept that- I’ll take the blame.

Now I learn that a child you are bearing
Did you’d think that I’d stop caring?
It is the best news that I have heard

The Pains Of Loneliness

The pains are so deep that they’ve become rooted in me
Like a bottomless pit with no ending
Coming straight up without bending.
No relief do I see in sight, I try to make changes
But I fail in my plight.
The pains of loneliness are hard to bare
When you have no one with these to share.

Why does happiness turn and bear away?
Why can’t with me - it stay?
What have I done that this burden I must bare?
Why can’t I escape it?
I’ve had my fair share.!

My heart is heavy and about to burst
The only relief are the tears that flow from my eyes.
But how much am I supposed to cry?
I’m like an Easter bunny, savory and tempting
On the top, but hollow on the inside.

Eyes Wide Open

Your eyes are wide open, but yet you don’t see
All the love I have inside of me.
Eyes wide open, but you don’t look around
You don’t open your ears, you don’t hear a sound.

Eyes wide open but the beauties that surround you
Do not seem to exist.
Is it that your eyes on you are playing tricks?

Eyes wide open and yet you have a blank stare.
Have you closed off your mind?
Or you just don’t care.

What can I do to remove that haze
So that on my face you can gaze.
If I hold you tenderly in my arms
And kiss those beautiful eyes.
Will they move? Will they cry?

What must I do so that you can see
