Rants and Raves

These rants and these raves just spill out around me

No stopping in sight

No fence and no boundaries

Infecting all who come near them

And all those who hear them

Now going insane

I'm losing my brain

My thought process slippin and I feel like I'm skippin

Some part of the story that needs to be heard.



Fuck it..



I'm through wasting my time

Sick of writing these lines

Sick of sittin here tryin

Hopin somebody's hears me

Hopin they get what I'm saying

Instead they think that I'm playin

They don't realize I'm prayin for someone to save me

Someone to listen

Someone to hear

These words that I'm saying seem to fall on deaf ears..



Seems like nobody cares in this day and this age

Not unless I'm payin em some hourly wage

Then they're too happy to listen to my problems in life

How hard it was losing my son and my wife

The hurt and the tears and the times that I cried

The anger and fears and times I wanted to die

But that's all in the past and even the pain that I felt

Has started to numb and started to melt

The fears that I had are beginning to cease

My confidence in life has slowly increased

I'm reborn from the ashes like the Phoenix of old

I passed through the fire and came out as gold.



So this is a message to those who are scared

Those who were hurt and vowed never to care

Love is a risk no matter how safe you play it

But love is..well..how can I say it?

Love is the look she has in her eyes

Him holding you close every time that you cry

Love is a call just to say that I care

While we're watching TV let me play with your hair

A candlelight dinner or breakfast in bed

A massage after work or a hot bath instead.

Love is waking her up with a kiss on the cheek,

Or helping him out when he's had a rough week

Noticing her clothes she bought just that day

That time you took just to get her away

From all the bills and the schedules and meetings she planned

You walked down the beach with your hand in her hand

And it's all of those things that show her you care

That show him you love him and you'll always be there.

Love is..
