Taking a Chance

good women are rare, none of them have come close
me I have’nt changed much, you know how I play
better safe than sorry
instead of searching for substance at every single party
baby being part of this life
I feel like I’m bound to end up with somebody
that’s been with everybody
I need you to rescue me from my destiny
I’m trying to live right and give you whatever’s left of me
cause you know life is what we make it and a
chance is like a picture, it’d be nice if you just take it.
Or let me take it for ya
I’m just down to ride
or we can roll around the city until we finally decide
I got more than a thing for you, tattoo and ink for you
right over my heart girl I do the unthinkable

Can You Keep A Secret

Can you keep a secret? Will it be safe with you? I must know! This secret has laid dormant within the confines of the ice box deep within the land of Enim. I must tell you, this secret once heard will send waves of bliss, it will shed eternal light onto the darkness, and replace sadness with joy. Can you keep a secret? Are you sure it will be safe? This secret I long to tell you, is the secret of my love for you. What is silence but the absence of speech,
they say that silence is golden but when do you stop the
silence and speak out? So long have I retained my silence,
so long have I wanted to speak out and say the things
I've wanted to say to you. So long have I longed to utter such
words of sweet surrender, words of truth, words of my heart.

To spend each waking moment seeing you by my side would
be such peaceful bliss, to hold you when I sleep would be such
limitless joy. Loving you has been such painful pleasure, longing
to tell you everyday how perfect you are to me, longing to look
you in the eyes and let you know how beautiful you are, how
your smile can give me hope in my times of despair,
how your laughter could turn my moments of sadness into joy.
But all I've been doing is watching from a far, dreaming and
hoping to one day give you the key to my heart. But for now,
I will put on my fake smile, I will laugh in the place of tears,
I will support your every venture, I will love you secretly.

Can you keep a secret?
Is the secret safe with you?
Will you tell this secret?
Because this secret be it
sweet and true, this
secret is my secret of loving you.

Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart

sometimes destiny isn't always good,
sometimes it's playful. when you meet someone
and you learned to love them you thought
it was destiny which made your paths cross.
but what if making your paths cross is just a
part of the game that destiny creates?

Making you realize in the end that the person you
thought who was destined for you wasn't really
meant to stay, but only destined to make you feel
loved, then leave you when you've already fallen.

What hurts the most is when you thought they were
yours, and you realize that their heart really belongs
to someone else.
sick of crying..
tired of trying..
yeah i'm smiling,
but inside i'm dying.

You can never own a heart that was never yours.
Stop gripping on things we expect to last forever.
Nothing lasts forever, everything is transitory,
life is not a fairytale, happy endings are out of reach.
So while you have something in your hand,
put in mind that it's just borrowed.
So that someday when it's gone it will not take you
and eternity to let go.

There will be times when you wish you are limited
to certain emotions, so that you'll never have to
experience pain, never feel betrayed
or frustrated, and never get your fragile heart
shattered, but that only means that you'll never
know how it feels to love and be loved in return.

Learning to love takes time,
mistakes make the journey
fun and pain makes you stronger.
life is what you make of it,
love makes the world go round.
so no matter what, believe that
love will prevail when everything else fails.

Though it's hard to wait for something you know
will never happen, it's harder to stop when
you know it's everything you've always wanted.
Just be grateful that at least you were able to
share a moment in time, even if it wasn't an eternity.

They say that there's nothing constant
in this world but change. i say they are wrong
because there is something that doesn't change
it's your memories.

In the still of the night

through the barren desert I traveled
an oasis was found,
suddenly the air was cool,
the tree's were beautiful and lush.

green, red, yellow, and violet surrounded me,
bliss, joy, and fulfillment overwhelmed me..
I was saved from the clutches of the barren dessert.

i walked across the field of color letting the feelings surge
through me, like the stars engulf the night sky.
I have found my eden,
sanctuary from the cold and pain.

The water was so strong and magnificent,
a sight for my sore eyes.
then i got down on my knees and thanked the heavens
for answering my prayers.
i closed my eyes and dipped my hands in.
the coolness was beyond measure.

I cupped a handful so that I could cherish it slowly,
opened my dry mouth to taste the sweet nectar of life.
as i let it come in, i could feel the change
my throat choked, and i coughed.

then i opened my eyes and again I was in the empty desert,
my eded,
my oasis
had disappeared.

A tear drop
again faced with the barren lands that i've traveled for so long.
My journey continues to find,
my oasis,
my eden....

First

Life, I wonder will it take me under?
These are the ramblings of a sporadic mind
The creativity that lies within is immense.

Find my ramblings enlightening or sheer brilliant,
manage to laugh and cry, or even feel a sense of connection.

Non the less, the objective is to be expressive in the form of words
and pictures..
