Excuses,
Excuses, Excuses!
Baby,
the reason why we didn’t go to the movies is because I forgot about the time
For real, I thought that you thought that it was okay and I wouldn’t mind
Baby, the reason why I didn’t call you all weekend is because I was busy moving
For real, here I thought that you were trying to offer comfort and some sort of
soothing.
Excuses, Excuses, Excuses.
The
reason why I didn’t come over is because I fell asleep and I knew you’d be mad
For real, here I thought that you had a heart and cared if I was sad
The reason why I can’t come over tonight to eat the special dinner that you are
going to cook is because I have to watch my child while my baby’s mother go out
for her birthday
For real, in others words, fuck what I had planned, is that what you’re trying
to say?
Excuses, Excuses, Excuses.
The
reason why I couldn’t make it to the movies after I had missed the first show
and now the next one is because I had to pick up my daughter because they took
my baby’s mother to jail
For real, here I thought you had your lies together but yet you have failed.
On your birthday I went out of my way to prepare a special dinner that you
didn’t even bother to come eat
When you walked your stank ass in my house yesterday without some sort of an
explanation, I started to knock you on your feet
Excuses, Excuses, Excuses!
My
Soul
Once
your heart is broken it takes away a sense of feeling
Trusting someone completely takes time and so much healing.
You dream of that perfect one that makes you smile like no other.
Like the green grass and a four-leaf clover.
I’m scared and afraid at the same time.
Thoughts are steadily running through my mind.
What happened to my soul?
I lost my soul, for the days are cold as my life unfolds.
The greatest thing to me is happiness and a peace of mind.
Someone to share my thoughts and one who is kind.
Someone to hold me close to their heart may our love for one another never
part.
Many times people only look at the outside and get blinded by the material
things.
The car, the house and oh yes, the ring.
I would trade it all just to be in love with someone who could love me for me
as much as I love he.
What happened to my soul?
I lost my soul for the days are cold as my life unfolds.

About the Book
My
book is truly affairs from the heart. It doesn’t matter if you are 5 years or
95 years old, someone can relate to at least one of my poems. It’s funny because most people that read some
of my poems seem to think that I am writing about them, when in fact I am
not. I must admit there is a lot of pain
in this book and as you continue reading you can see that. You will also see how much in love I am as
well. This book will definitely keep you
laughing, if not crying, it can be emotional at times.
This
book will definitely have you begging for more, it will also inspire you to
even write your loved one a poem or two if not borrow from it. Whether you want something bitter and sweet,
or something to relax you while relaxing with a bottle of wine, or just plain
entertaining your friends, you can surely do just that. My
Thoughts is truly my thoughts and no one else's, so you can rest assure
that these are my ideas only and that, no one can take away.

church choir."
