Adore

If I am not him, then why treat me like him?
Have I done anything to assure you that he is me?
Check that, that I am him?
He's disrespected you, shamed you, and defamed you
Yet you give him the crown?
If I were to abuse you, then would you respect me?
If I were to be wayward, would you then give me credit?
Years went pass without accolades, time has faded without glorification
Everything I do is for naught so why continue?
I continue for myself. Continue for my pride.
No longer will I wait for you to tell me how far I can reach or how high I can climb.
No longer will you hold me back with your envious mannerisms or your insidious nature.
I'm doing this for myself, for others who have been in my same predicament.
I am a trailblazer, an originator
Never again to be held down by a manipulator,
Such as yourself.
You are defeated. You are extinct.
You will no longer tug my soul to the brink
Of destruction
You are corruption
Desolating everything in sight
You have all of the family in fright
But not I
I am done
Done being chased. Done being the one
That you pick on
The one that you go on
But my backbone is found
So I'm standing my ground
Say what you want
But no longer will you flaunt
Your jealous ways and influence me
I have grown above and beyond the misery
That you continue to give
So with that being said,
From this point on,
I decide to live
Not for you or not for anyone else
But for me
Because today I am reclaiming
My liberty.

Moonlight Sonata

Will you be there for me?
Of course. I always have and always will.
Why did we argue so much?
I didn't argue with you. I saw your point of view and presented you with different perspectives.
Why did things fall apart?
Things always remained the same. They changed in your mind.

Why did you stay with me when I was sick?
You couldn't take care of yourself.
Why did you fight for me?
Your honor was in peril.
Why did it seem like you treated me differently?
I treated you with the utmost respect and esteem, as one should be treated.
Why don't we hang out anymore?
We hang out the same way as before. The time is just longer and the days are shorter.
It seemed like you didn't care.
I decided not to entertain trivial matters that are not beneficial to the growth of you or myself.
Why didn't you call?
You never answered when I used to.
Why aren't we together anymore?
We never were.

Breezin'

Humility has shattered.
Shyness has withered
Mortification no longer in sight.
Meekness replaced with fright.
Docility has taken on Boisterous' behavior.
Unpretentiousness beholded Pompus as it's savior.
Timid became Cavalier
Vainglory put Humble to the rear.
Thin lines exist everywhere
From broke n***** to millionaires.
What would it take to cross that line?
An idea comes.
Praises follow.
Modesty takes effect.
Praises continue to flow.
Conceit begins to creep in
Idea begats money
Money calls his brother Arrogance
Arrogance adores attention.
Assiduity requires Narcissism.
Narcissism becomes omnipotent.
Omnipotence seeks another idea.
Praises follow.
Modesty take effect.
Praises continue to flow.
Narcissism is gone.
Replaced by newfound Humbleness.
Humbleness stayed strong
While Narcissism knew he had been wrong
His idea faded with better development
Now he is jaded with everlasting reminiscence
Always yielding his ears to resistance
Narcissism resorts to asking for Humbleness' assistance.
Is it worth it?

Missing You

No......... No, it's not here. The answers are not here. Please stop passing to check. They aren't here. You stop by every so often to enlist on this reservation of publication which doesn't exist. You plead, "Please", "Just hear me out", "Answer my questions". No. The time has come for you to figure it out on your own. No more shall you see a crutch waiting for your withered body to lean. No more shall you see a step to rest your weary soul. Walk that path, down that narrow road. You allowed yourself to falter unto a path that doesn't alter and now your stupidly standing where others have been chanting, "Please", "Just hear me out", "Answer my questions" but to no avail. So, again, NO. No longer shall this heart unrest with your asinine inquires nor this brain fathom your fatuous ideologies but you shall unveil your eyes upon that path in which you have inadvertently sought. Use that crest essentially disdaining decisions made emotionally but emotions may allure and they can; as long as you know that Rose Royce said it best 'cause, LOVE DON'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE!
