The Formula Of Friendship (Reply)

There are people in everyone’s lives, which claim to be your friend

And you like idiots, your trust we begin to extend

Not only do they have your trust, on them you start to depend

But never did you think, of the person that you befriend

These people really don’t like you, like prey, on you they descend

The hawk that grabs the rodent, is the way that it is in the end

And I’m sorry to have to say it, but these fakers i must commend

For never shall you know the truth, until after the time you spend

Dear brethren I must applaud you, and the message that you do send

For hopefully your words do affect, and help thine people comprehend.

Love, Lust, or Money?

I guess I am kind of confused about what I desire from women.

Do I want just sex, or love, or the money they take from wastrel men?

Too many times I do lust after a female,

A deadly sin it is, one that I hope does not lead me to hell.

Thoughts of women I see daily run rampant and undressed in my head;


And at night, seductive dreams star these women in my bed.

Yet, when love is on my mind and heart, Sex is merely an afterthought;

Though sometimes, I wonder if love is even worthy enough of being sought after.

I know it can only be given, not taken or bought.


For a moment, love in my life I had, I thought.

Though after an abundance of years, love has left me with naught;


So should finances be my motive for making women smile and swoon?


The very thing that if craved for most, lead men to their doom.

In my impecunious situation, money is indeed a must;

But to seduce a woman only for her wealth would be a betrayal of her trust.


Of these three choices before me, I would rather not decide,


Because each decision I make will have an unfortunate downside.

The only thing I need, Perhaps the next woman will be so delighted to tell me;

Although my life without any of these elements right now, is just so carefree.

Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart

It is always difficult.

It is never easy;

More powerful than a lightning bolt

And when you think about it, you get uneasy.

You should have played it smart, now try sleeping with a broken heart.


You just had to keep it real,

But you and your lies would not stop.

You did not want to act right but I bet you she will.

It was you but now she is the one moaning on my countertop.

You should have played it smart, now try sleeping with a broken heart.


I thought I was treating you right,

But I guess I was wrong.

I just wanted to chill, you just wanted to fight.

It is not hard to see why I left you alone crying at home.

You should have played it smart, now try sleeping with a broken heart.


Moved on pass you, baby;

No longer do I let you effect me.

I got myself a new lady

And unlike you, she is not stone crazy.

You should have played it smart, now try sleeping with a broken heart.


Well that is the way the cookie crumbles.

Officially, we are no longer together.

You was on the ball but you had to fumble

And I am extremely happy that we did not last forever.

You should have played it smart, now try sleeping with a broken heart.

Barking Up The Wrong Tree

Survey says we’ll make a cute couple

And you know that I agree

But there seems to be a bit of trouble

You don’t want to be with me.

In the end, we’ll see if I’m barking up the wrong tree.


We’ve known each other for a while

Seen each other mad

Seen each other smile

But after all, you think us being together would be bad.

In the end, we’ll see if I’m barking up the wrong tree.


Your true feelings, I know you can’t deny

I know this to be true

No matter how many times you try to confuse me with a lie

You know you want me and you know I want you

In the end, we’ll see if I’m barking up the wrong tree.


Every time I think of you, there’s an unanswered phone call

And you don’t concern yourself to respond

You say you want a person who can receive your all

So why can’t we be what you want and beyond?

In the end, we’ll see if I’m barking up the wrong tree.


I know you’re worth it so for you, I will fight

I like you, remember you said that that one night

Sometimes you make me feel like I’m doing something wrong

But I still think we should be together, together we belong.

In the end, we’ll see if I’m barking up the wrong tree.

My Hershey’s Kiss

Her big brown eyes in my direction they stare;

Penetrating my heart & soul to see what is there.

No doubt she is searching for love inside me;

An emotion that she will not find easily.

Her big brown eyes in my direction they stare;

Desperately yearning for us to have a love affair.

Everyday her eyes speak a thousand words;

Yet not even a small statement or an utterance is heard.

Her big brown eyes in my direction they stare;

While my eyes are affixed upon her derriere.

Dark chocolaty skin & a delightful physique;

Her appearance is dazzling & indeed unique.

Her big brown eyes in my direction they stare;

Begging for me to take away her inner despair.

For her, every vision of me is a moment of bliss;

And the feeling is likewise,

My Dear Hershey’s kiss.

Where Fore Art Thou Juliet ?

I cannot get a special someone off my mind;

A spectacular somebody with a sexy exotic body.

She has a slim waist, soft lips, and a pretty face.

Every time I am near her my heart beats like bass.

She is so like me it is like she is a female version of me,

But people say my relationship with her could put my life in jeopardy.

I take what she and I have very seriously.

She holds a special place in my heart and I love her dearly.

She is the lover and the friend that I never had,

And she knows exactly what to do to calm me down when I am mad.

I will be disturbed if I ever let her go.

How she makes me truly feel no one will never know.

Our parents do not want to leave us be,

So you can imagine how hard it is for her and me.

What we feel for each other you will never understand.

I treasure her everyday and she passionately cares for her man.

It is a shame we have to hide what we share.

It is not right nor is it reasonable or fair.

The Formula Of Friendship

It's So Special And Remarkable When A Bond Is Made,

And The Beginning of The Foundation Of Friendship Is Laid.

A Friend Is Something We All Think We Have,

But We Never Really Know Until We Do The Math.

Most Of Us All Use The Term "Friend" Very Loosely,

And In Result, Become Friends With People Who Tell Lies Profusely.

A Grave Mistake That Will Leave Severe Ramifications,

And Definitely Cause Awkward Or Intense Situations.

There's Many People In The World Who Are Simply Out For Self-Gain;

Be Careful Not To Call These People Friends For They Will Only Cause Pain.

Remember To Always Use Caution; Only Align Yourself With The Right Company;

Because When You're Down, A True Friend Will Make The Darkest Day Seem Sunny.

That Is Something We Could Benefit From Having In Our Young Precious Lives,

Because For One, I Hate To Be Stabbed In The Back With A Thousand Knifes.

No One Enjoys Being Deceived And Being Betrayed,

And You Won't Be If You Watch Those That Pretend And Masquerade.

So Maintain A Small Circle Of Those You Trust And Those Who Trust You

Only Bestow The Gift Of Friendship To Genuine People Who Remain True,

Believe Me; Your Life Will Be So Much Better And Enjoyable If You Do.
