The Confession

Since my past life,
Up until now,
I dwell on why you’ve remained with me,
And then I wonder how?

I’ve never deserved your presence,
Well at least not in my mind,
I keep things between us so uptight,
When u just want to unwind,

And you’re more than beautiful,
Surely I hate that fact,
Because I’ve wasted your valuable time,
And we both know u cant get that back,

I call this my confession,
I KNOW u stand there waiting,
Hoping that one day I’ll grow up,
And the seat next to me won’t be taken,

Even now you choose me?
Its just so hard to see,
Because you always wanted kids,
But I never took the time to work on family,

I just say…
One day we’ll do better,
But I never do my part,
Or help you put the pieces together,

But u stand next to me,
And vow to never part,
Thinking that sunny days wouldn’t be special,
If it wasn’t for the dark..

So I call this my confession,
I KNOW u stand there waiting,
Hoping that one day I’ll grow up,
And the seat next to me won’t be taken,

Not If U Were Mine

I can tell that you‘re unhappy,
But you’re just too strong to say,
I watch your eyes tear up,
Wishing someone would take the pain away,

Its more than obvious to me,
But you’d prefer to hide it,
I watch your soul reaching out for me,
And your body hopes that its invited,

So why stay involved?
When you could be loved at all times,
Not just at 3 o’clock in the morning,
Before the sun begins to shine..

And if that’s what u like,
I’d have to say that, its fine,
But its not the way it has to be…
Not if u were mine…

You deserve to be loved,
Not only when there’s nothing else to do,
Not only when the storm keeps you inside,
But also when skies are blue,

You should be loved,
Not only when you step from the shower,
Barefoot, and glistening with your hair still wet,
Smelling like jasmine, and bergamot powder,

But that’s not the way it is,
You receive no compliment when u buy a new sundress
And when you cut your hair for him….
You shouldn‘t have to wonder if he likes it, or even have to guess….

But if that’s what u like,
I’d have to say that, its fine,
But its not the way it has to be…
Not if u were mine…

Your Lover

If I can’t be your man,
Suffer me to be your lover,
Lets lay the night away,
Once, and then another…

No disrespect intended,
It may seem like a task,
But how might I care for your body,
If I never ask…

Offer me your hand,
Lets drift into the night,
I’m not asking you to trust me yet,
But give it ‘til tonight,

If I can’t be your man,
Suffer me to be your lover,
Lets lay the night away,
Once, and then another,

I promise you’ll be fine,
I’ll let you have your way,
We can enter into Heavens treasures,
Lets make you “Queen” for a day,

You are the shining light,
When their skies are blue,
You take care of everyone else,
But who’s taking care of you?

No disrespect intended,
I only extend my hand,
Suffer me to be your lover,
If I cannot be your man…….
