Woman Smile

Picture the sky without the stars above,
or a forest without trees.
Picture a person without a friend to love,
or an ocean without a breeze.

Picture a birthday without presents,
or a playground without a child.
But the saddest picture there is to see,
is a woman’s face without a smile.

The face of a woman was made to smile,
and thereby she is blessed.
Above the creatures of field and stream,
the birds and all the rest.

A woman is just a little lower,
than the angels in the sky.
The reason is in her smile,
it’s there her beauty lies.

Perfect Love

All we had of laughs and tears,
We both kept it a secret so no one hears,
I thought we could stay together,
But I knew these days wouldn’t last forever,
She first treated me like a friend,
But I knew this couldn’t be the end,
I saw the sun rising upon the shores,
Who would stay in while she could be outdoors,
We used to have fun under the rain,
Such moments were magical that words cannot explain,
Till that day when we had our first kiss,
That day is in my mind and I will always miss,
The love we shared grew strongly and fast,
She was everything to me, my present, future and past,
Words cannot describe the beauty of her eyes,
She is perfect that she can never tell lies,
The happiness of the world is felt in her smile,
Describing it would take years and years, not just a while,
All the love we felt was real,
It was innocent, perfect and pure that no one can feel,
Keeping us from each other would be tough,
Even the strongest power on earth won’t be enough,
She was the closest one to my heart,
Nothing in the world could make us apart,
She thought I didn’t need her that much,
But all what I needed was only her touch,
She is the one I loved with all my might,
The one dream to kiss tonight.

Long For

Sittin alone,
In artificial light,
Tryin to make it,
Through one last night.

A mix of emotions,
A heart full of woe,
Wondering where,
All this will go.

I felt it was right,
From the very first day,
But in just one second,
That was taken away.

I’m left here alone,
In fear and in pain,
Hoping the chance,
Will come back again.

I feel as though,
I’ve been taken apart,
Pieced back in the wrong sequence,
Missing half of my heart.

Sitting here blindly,
In search of my mind,
But the harder I look,
The less I can find.

What once came naturally,
Was cruelly taken away,
I’ve lost all trace of colour,
The world is now grey.

In seconds I fell,
From positive thoughts,
The creative talent,
That this one being brought.

But being out of my life,
Has left me so bare,
I have lost inspiration,
I’m left in confused despair.

I’m in my bed,
I toss and turn,
My eyes are red,
They’re sore, they burn.

The same thoughts,
Run through my mind,
Of someone who,
Is warm and kind.

I feel him slide,
His hand in mine,
And remember when,
We met first time.

Now that’s over,
I’m here alone,
Paranoia,
What have I done?

I’m all alone, I’ve lost my smile,
Wishing you had stayed a while,
Instead you ignore me when you like,
And fill my head with all your shit.

I’m over you, I’m out of love,
I’m lying here, I’ve had enough,
It’s been a while, but I’m okay,
I take life as it comes each day.

But when I feel I’ve let you go,
You tell me that you’ve missed me so,
And once again I’m in your trap,
Even though you don’t want me back.

So now I’m hooked just as before,
I lie here alone upon my floor,
Thinking of nothing else but you,
Adoration that’s so confused.

I think I’m okay, and that life will go on,
But each night it’s the same when I’m alone,
You say you care, and I believe each word,
But now I’m telling myself I’ve had enough.

I’m living in the past, life was better then,
I need you, we’re supposed to be friends,
But each day you say you don’t have the time,
Is when I realize that I have been blind.

You think you care about me, but this is a lie,
You try to be nice, and I always ask why,
This is not what you want, deep down inside,
And it’s me that gets hurt every single time.

So leave me alone, I need time to myself,
In times of need, it was you that helped,
But you’ve hurt me now, and things will change,
Right now, I don’t want to hear your name.

Everything you say, seems genuine to me,
But I’m hooked on you, it’s easy to see.
I wish things were simple like the start,
but you messed me about, And broke my heart.

I know I will forgive you, and be okay in time,
I never fully believed you’d ever be mine,
But I’m still feeling this everyday,
Wishing things hadn’t gone this way.

I need time alone, so I can move on,
And accept the fact, that I’m not the one,
So leave me to grieve at my own accord,
I don’t want to hear from you. Not one word.

As tiredness dries up these heavy eyes,
I sit alone but I can’t cry
The night is still and house is quiet,
I feel aggressive, my head’s a riot.

My music plays too soft to hear,
MY happy thoughts just disappear,
I sit alone, I feel the cold,
I long for the past, I’m getting old.

I tap the keys, they echo loud,
I’m tryin so hard to make no sound,
But everyone’s asleep, they cannot hear.
They do not know that I’m here.

The silence carries through the night,
The darkness blinds my only sight,
I sitting here wishing for the day,
To take the pain and suffering away.

I’m moving on, I’m starting again,
I’m not sure, if we should be friends.

I look at him, and see the past,
Wishing time would move on fast.

But blocking him out seems extreme,
And I’m not convinced it would help me.

I need to think this over, but it’s a mess,
I’m still being in love. I confess.

Lies, deception, and more and more lies,
Or was it all just a painful disguise?
He loves me, but can’t seem to work it out.
I question him to relieve my doubt.

But every single comment fogs my mind,
I remember him being warm and kind,
His answers are as confused as me,
The truth is something I will never see.

Wishing for clarity, and a little light,
To help me through each sleepless night,
I always believed he was the one for me,
But obviously that’s not how it’ll be.

Him

Anger, rage, false accusations,
This situation is so frustrating,
Fear and terror of what will become,
Loving him, like he’s the one.

Broken hearts, and restless minds,
Thinking I must be going blind,
Sorrow and depression once again,
Wishing he would be my friend.

Flashbacks, memories, things were said,
Repeating themselves over in my head,
tryin desperately to move on from this,
But faithfully wanting to be his.

Before Old

Tryna Fake it
till I make it
standin here to make a show
to define you
and to study
just as far as you can go

do you seize me
how I like it
I’m so difficult
to read
like some paper
or a booklet
or a napkin
with a theme

here I’m standin
starin at you
lookin at you crossed the room
moppin floors
and changin pictures
if i kiss you
I will be doomed
won’t this happen
or i show it
i regret
all my mistakes
wanna study
wanna get it
just before
its just too late

now you’re leaving
I’m not leaving
starin at you as
you leave
one more shot
i don’t have shots
so now I stand here
watch me bleed
cause i need you
wanna meet you
wanna know you
wanna hold
wanna stock you
wanna mock you
just before i get too old

now I’m washing all the
dishes
cleaning houses
cookin stoves
wish i moved
in your direction
now I got another load
much too laundry
much too cleaning
much too late to try again
when I see you
you’ll be taken
so i guess
me
you
just friends

I will harass you
and embrace
you still
I’m slick I will get away
what I do
it might just harm you
i am
sure I will get away

I am charming
I am evil
you know me
i don’t make sense
watch me
dancing
beneath roses
when I walk
behind your fence

yeah you see me
all around you
like a mellow
to a stove
why i tease you
with my clarence
now its me
and you alone

Am i crazy
you don’t get it
what my poets
don’t make sense
my names
ebony
mcmillan
I’m Highmaintenance
and intense

so define me
and come seize me
study lift
and over all
watch my safety tips
and safety net
cause one day I will fall

Step

A Step Through Their Shoes

You have to know a person
To step into their shoes
You have to be there to see
What they have been through
Good times and bad
You are a good friend
To be there for them no matter how rough
Just be a good friend to take a step in their shoes.

Friends or Lovers

Friends, lovers or other
What shall we be?
A decision I can not make,
But one that we need

Im thinking about you every moment,
Each and every day
Yet, still you remain… my love,
so very far away.

I dream of the things
We are yet to share
I dream of our embraces,
And our expressions of care.

I hope and pray my love
Somehow, I will touch your heart
So you will choose my dear
Friends, while lovers, not apart

I yearn for you my darling
To hold you in my arms,
To feel the heave of your chest,
To know your passionate charms

This heart aches, my little Angel
When I envision the softness of your face,
Warmth of your lips, as we share a kiss,
These are just some of the things I chase

I offer you the choice my love
The choice… Should you dare.
Of a life filled with devotion,
With hope, love and care

I ask you now, to make a choice
For I know which I would take
Friends, lovers or other
The choice that counts, is the one you make.
To be, or not… together.

Goodbye Lover

Here in your arms.
Im where I wanna be.
Everything I know
Is reflected in you and me
The waves crash on our feet
I see you drifting away
Don’t chase him says my brain
But my heart feels a different way
Everything I know
Everything I see
Everything I feel
Its all
You and me
You’re farther away now
I can’t see into your eyes
But I know that our souls
Keep us safe
Together forever
So when you feel lonely
Think about today
How we watched the sunset
And the waves drift you slowly away
I will try to be strong
But it won’t last for long
Because you were too good to be true
When it was you and I
Well now your gone
And I never said goodbye
So goodbye my love
Goodbye my friend
Goodbye my lover
This is truly the end.

My Life

I don’t know what to do with my life
Do I settle down, become a good wife
Or do I follow my many dreams
As I listen to my family’s screams
It’s not an easy decision to make
And I could end up making a huge mistake
I don’t want to disappoint anybody
Though, in the end I might disappoint everybody
I thought I had my future planned out
But now there are few things I’m sure about
I’m no longer sure what tomorrow will bring
Maybe new friends, a job, or a ring
My life has become one big blur
This is not the life I would prefer
I want to go back to when life was black or white
Back to when the right answer was bright
Back to the time when I knew what to do
And which of my friends I knew would stay true
I’m running out of time to make my decision
I hope my future is everything I envision
It’s time for me to take a break
This is what Im thinking about as I lie awake
I do not know where I belong
I don’t know if I can handle being wrong
I want to follow my heart wherever it may lead
Cause I know deep down it will let me succeed

Someday

I imagine the future
It is just a thought
When will I see you again?
Or is there just sadness brought

I just think of stuff
That could of happened or never had
Just thinking about all this stuff
Makes me feel really sad

I thought someday you’d actually like me
But gosh was I so dumb
I always thought every day
When will that someday come?

I’ve waited and waited
Each and everyday
But everytime I looked at you
You just looked away

Everytime I tried to talk to you
You would just ignore
I thought we were good friends
So what did you do that for?

But then I realized since you found out
I really loved you so
You seemed like you hated it
And you wished you didnt know

I felt so stupid right then
And I felt very num
For right then I realized
That someday would never come
