Despondent Child

Woebegone little boy
World filled without any joy
To his room his hope is sent
By himself all his time is spent
Disheartened and so forsaken
His life has been mistaken

So It All Ends
So it All Ends
Wilfred Charles Mellers Tuesday, December 28,2010
Well, well, ain’t this about a stitch
Lying here bloody in a stinking ditch
Waiting on the good lord to come along
Thinking of what went wrong
Cloths torn as all hope shattered
Who I am or was truly never mattered
Achievements came seldom few
What was I suppose to do
Words no longer express
My life was such a mess
Waiting for it to start
But it was always falling apart
No beginning just a bitter end
Pockets empty without a farthing to lend

My Interest
I can’t express how you’ve peaked my interest
The true beauty that you posses
You are a goddess and an empress
My life has just begun my sweetness
Some have wisdom yet they are not wise
For they can’t see the goodness in your eyes
Short but sweet, petite and neat
Please let me sweep you off your feet
Caught like a dear in headlights
Let me spend all my days and nights
Call on me whenever you will
All your dreams I'll try to for fill
I will live up to everything you've wanted
By your charm now I am haunted
Caught in your web I will not put up a fight
Do with me as you will to your delight
Here's to you I give a toast
Now on this will be our milepost

She Is Everything To Me
She is the sun
She is a stunning woman
She is the moon
She is an exquisite tune
She is a star in the sky
She is the apple of my eye
She is a picturesque blossom
She is the melody and I the rhythm
She is playful
She is my angel
She is my royal queen
She is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen
She is my equal
She is the better sequel
She is the gentle rainfall
She is my all and all

These are reasons why the world turns
These are reasons why the fire burns
These are reasons why the Lava churns
These are reasons why I show my concerns
She is the reason why men die
She is the reason why the sun rises in the sky

What is the color line?
What is the color line?
Can you walk across it? I think not.
Do you need a passport to enter or leave it?
Will I need a visa, and how many days can I stay if I get the permission to embank?
Does it have a borderline?
How wide is this line, and how deep are its seas?
What will happen if I enter without a writ of invitation?
Do I have to be announced?
Is it special clubs in which only members are allowed?
Is it a special place where only a selective few may participate?
Where is this color line, and how can I reach it?
The color line is places deep whiten the darkest part of the subjugations heart.
It’s a place where differences will not be tolerated.
If you do not look like me, walk like me, talk like me, and act like me then you are not welcomed here.
It is a place where only Anglo-Europeans can endeavor to become more.
It’s a place where if you cross you may not return from intact.
It’s a place of aggression, resentment, gratefulness, envy, and jealousy.
The color line cannot be seen nor can it be heard, but it can be felt.

Forever After
For I would rescue you from the bowels of hell
For a chance with you to dwell
You are the rains that bring forth life
You are the means to the end of strife
You are my one and only turtledove
For the L in your name means love
In the heavens you are the shining star
Never change for I love you the way you are
Take a gamble and roll the dice
For in this life you are my spice
Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger too
The taste of honey and essences blue
You make my heart sing LADI, DA, DA
Your smile takes me to Shangri-La
Gorgeous damsel femininity speaking
Au couture La fem I have been seeking

Take it easy
Sometimes it’s hard to find a simple place of mind
Try and try as hard as you can
You have wonder across this great big land
Still you can’t find so you got to
Take it easy
Don’t bother with the pain and strife
For it will make you lose your life
So don’t bother to get uptight
Take it easy
Remember to take it slow
Plant good seeds and they’ll grow
You’ll be happy before you know
It doesn’t matter who you are
Not everyone can be a star
So be satisfied keep your eyes open wide
Take pride in the things you do
And happiness will find you

The Flower By Any Other Name
Standing with my back to the wall
Surely no one on me will call
Came and angel with sweet vocalizations
Sparked such satisfying conversations
As I gazed deeply inside I cry
Your eyes so stunning for those I would die
One touch sends me heaven bound
I could barely utter a sound
My eyes now bright and gleaming
Could it be that I am not dreaming
Frozen standing I knew not what to do
For the first time I had no clue
Could it be that a beauty sees me
Most wonderful creature living in DC
From Wisconsin you came into my day
Forever in my life I hope you will stay

Ode To Your Ghetto Booty
I need no eyeglasses to see what you got in your trunk
Lord have mercy! A big beautiful badonkadonk
The way you shake it so bootylicious
More bounce to the ounce and so damned delicious
That backside is off the chain and banging
You've got a brother's pants sagging
I want to worship your tantalizing rump
Push that thing up on me and let me feel that bump
You've got a gorgeous bubble
I better take care before I get my butt into trouble
That big beautiful bottom
Those jeans you wear must be custom
Like a terrorist I'd hold your bottom for ransom
It looks good enough to be on a hip-hop album
I want to play on your bum like a drum
I'm begging you please O' please give me some
