Follow Your Dreams
Follow Your Dreams
Dreams water the soul as rain moistens the flower to bring into being the desires of its capabilities for they are the bullies that continue to push us and dare us to meet life challenges.
Dreams are the light that shines along the course in the darkness of our...

I dream U
I dream U in color -
U cry turquoise tears
And proudly smile passionate pink,
Clear blue skies are how U think.
I dream U in fragrance –
U blush black roses
While walking willow’s essence,
U’re love is lilies descending...
Time
Time is our most valuable resource we cab never replace, or get more of.
Spend it wisely.
Let Me
Let me take care of your broken heart
and show you how to fly.
Let me hold you gently by the hand
and kiss your tears goodbye.
Let me lead you to tomorrow's light
and out of needless rain,
'cause all I want right now
is to see you smile again.

Dear Old Friend
Hey pain it's been awhile
You used to show your face every day
I almost forgot how to smile
Unlike most you’re constant and I long for you to stay
I remember times you’d take my breath away
You were there through all my tribulations...
Gerardo Martinez
When I look in the mirror, what do I see? A young man who looks just like me.
It must be me, this much I know, the places he's been, I don't wish to go.
I stare in his eyes and see silent rage from years of being trapped in a cage.
I know this place can change...

A Prayer From A Saint
I seek You all day and searched through the night
I walk in Your ways and live for what's right
I died to myself and now live through You
for the old me has passed, I'm a creation of new
I give You all praise as well as the glory...
Chains
Chains of connect-the-dot girls and calendar faces
Dreamworld disguises and sheep in wolves’ clothing
Mountaintop, enlightenment
Smoky, dank basement
Pass around the truth
But don’t mess up the rotation
Headlines and bylines and my lines rehearsed...

Cry Tears Little Boy
Can you understand the boy who was shunned as a child?
Understanding that he was taught to display anger instead of a smile,
Hurting by the door, realizing that Dad was never coming home,
Or Mama smiling in your face while high off drugs,
But...

"Potentially Me"
Quran The Don
With a mind beyond
Creative and happy
I was raised without a daddy
Righteous and forgiven
I respect your decision
Strong and powerful
Being weak is doubtful
Courageous and loyal
Worth more...

The Love I Give
Looking into your eyes is like being thrust in the middle of a vast forest, with no sense of where I’m at. I could get lost in them for days searching for a way out and even when I die from what seems like an eternity of your essence, when you blink, I come back to...
When the Day Comes
Falling asleep
I think of you
Wishing you were
Here with me.
I reach for you
Feeling the cold of
The empty bed.
Falling asleep
I dream of you
Kissing me soft
Filled with heat.
Falling asleep
I cry...

BEAUTY…
AND THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER
They say she’s not attractive but she looks good to me,
I guess that’s because
I’m looking deeper than the carnal eye can see.
She doesn’t appear in public
Like she’s starring in a skin flick,
Doesn’t sashay up and...

The Dalai Lama when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered;
“Man, because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health; and then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present. ...

Reflections seek reflections,
A mirror seeks a mirror,
A deeper conversation,
Life mirrors understanding.
Reflections seek life,
Understandings and challenges,
Games being played,
Play them elsewhere.
A reflection seeks education,...
At Sunset
The sun sets differently on this side,
Your expectation of beautiful skies,
Filled with colors that’ll bring you to tears,
Are hardly ever seen by the naked eye…
I can’t even remember the last time I cried,
Nor can I remember the last time I smiled…...

POEMS OR QUOTES
“I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection”. Leonardo Devinci
“If you put limits on what you can do physically or anything else, it'll spread over into the rest of your life...
Passion
Being imprisoned…among two thousand men
Seeing eve pass by… leaves a soul with the definition of friend.
To many this place is a human animal shelter…lost pets without owners…
Neglect as adolescents…prison is a way to keep potential “Arrested in Development”…Behavioral...

Inhale the beach
and see me there
with you as I do,
just after the glow
is shuttered and
the finishing touches
are put on the day
Last night you wore
a blue sundress – only
Trailing you, following
with my eyes...

“Female” God’s Most Beautiful Creation
By: Myles Williams
The way of her smell reminds me of a hidden pasture full of exotic fruit, her eyes remind me of the abyss containing all the stars at night, her nose reminds me of a dandelion; innocent and pure, her lips like soft petals...

What If
What if life only knew life
And light and night gave birth to joy
And joy gave every woman a golden apple
With the name of the perfect man –
Made in the image that she’d prefer
What if
What if he was wise and knew the secret of the wind

We are blessed
We don’t need to count our blessings
Because we will run out of fingers
We are lucky people
The universe will make two lovers
Out of strangers
A female and our family
Is all the people we want to see
We don’t stress over paper

Kiksu
*Sing*
I don't know,
What I can do...
You're permeated by shadows...
A mystery,
That perplexes me...
A precious stone,
That adorns my heart...
Expressions made,

Music
I drown in the sound wave
Each frequency takes me higher
It sours through my soul
Until I breathe its beat
The lyrics string through my vision
Captivating
My every thought

Never Forget How Much
I know you've never enjoyed real love in this life.
Crying on the phone I know you had them nights, thinking it's a struggle not to live in spite. I wasn't looking for my friend when I reached out, but I was looking for my wife. Love songs...

Once The Mask Is Off
The mask I wear, to hide this pain and fear,
inside I cry, tear after tear.
This guard stays up, day after day,
my face is hidden, as I continue to fade away.
I run, from how I feel,
this suffer within, is all so...

I’m from East Phoenix, you can tell how I talk,
An I gotta lil bop every time that I walk.
She got the Lovis shoes with the suede on the tip,
With the Seven skinny jeans, lookin fly as a jet.
This Gucci boy fresh, drippin all in the pen,
The first time she wrote she...

“She’s Human”
I spoke to her today, and she spoke to me.
I saw in her eyes a light I have never seen before, I sensed in her voice a kindness I had never seen in her.
But I also sensed that she did not want to let her guard down.
So I asked myself, “Why is this, I...
Lonely Prison Cell
Have you ever seen the sunshine from a lonely prison cell, or felt so alone inside, but had no one to tell?
Everyone says they miss you and wish that you were there, but deep down inside you know they just don’t care.
You see the same ole mail man as he greets a hundred men, but...
