As far as I can remember

While I was growing up, I had run in with criminal activity. My friends were killers, drug dealer, thieves, gang bangers. And some of my family was apart of the mafia. Now most of them all have died or in prison. I have shot at more than once, and a gun has been put to my face 3 or 4 times. Today was an interesting to say the least because I went sleep and had dreams as if I were still in the dark world. Having to remember that things can worse, having to remember the pain that I had live with every single day. Thinking there was no way I could live to be 25, thinking there was no way I could go to college. Now me being the son and grandson of some very important people helped me get to where I am now, but I have lost all of my friends, I have moved away from most of my family(thats still alive). What should I regret not being there to help those that are still here or should I regret trying to forget where I come from?

You say it..... We play it....

Wow ok I never thought I would see my words posted on a screen like today, but I guess it makes you think what you are going to post. I now have to be cafeful to watch my words think before I write. So since I have to think before I write I want you to think about what I write. Just a weird thought to get you started

Prep for Spring Break (Poetic)

Ok this was a very hard week but somehow I survived, so far. Well I went and showed a group of people my blog, as far as I know things are going great so far. I had plans for Spring Break that I made months ago, but they fell through well I decided that I would go see the Isley Brothers come here to town. I didn't get a chance to make a submission into the writing contest but I decided to post my submission on here and then you can tell me if I would have been at least a finalist. It's called Touch


Wow, look over there!
Have you seen her before?
She walked through the door,
My tongue hit the floor.
Boldly I take that first move,
Knowing I have so much to lose.
A subtle comment draws no notice;
All we want is someone to hold us.
Because you see since birth,
All the time we spend on earth
From the dawn of time
Contact sublime
We long to touch
And be touched
Oh my goodness
God graced us with yet another beautiful creature
Look at this midnight sun,
Even better than the first one
When I see her
I mean when its her I see
This I can guarantee
Bended Knees and shopping sprees
Because you see,
since birth,
All the time we spend on earth
From the dawn of time
Contact sublime
We long to touch
And be touched
Now with this woman I'm a fan
More than man with plan
Her soul be angelic as it can
thinking what's going on in her mind
should I or should I not touch entwined
Because you see since birth,
All the time we spend on earth
From the dawn of time
Contact sublime
We long to touch
And be touched
