Whatever's On Your Mind (The Rebirth)

Been a while since I have written but here goes nothing.
They sent you to Iraq to do what you had to do. Many sleepless nights I had during that time, no contact, no word from you for a very long while. I worried so much. You finally come home, you can't imagine my relief that you are unscathed. You are safe at home, but only for three years at the most; for they plan to send you elsewhere then. I hope that I can endure better. I will once again hope for your safety, fear that phone call that all fear. I will forever, love the days that you come back home and dread those that you must go away. I just wish you could stay home for a change, where you belong.

SATISFACTION vs RECONCILATION
Satisfaction will have you thinking that
As long as you have repented you can do your
Sin and it will be alright.
Reconciliation will allow you to understand that
Giving up sin will allow your life to be bright.
Satisfaction will have you treading on a
Thin line.
Reconciliation will have you living sublime
Satisfaction will have you trying God
Reconciliation will have you watching
The steps you trod.
Satisfaction will make you believe that
Sinning is okay
Reconciliation will have you giving up
Sin today.
Satisfaction will have you following
Your desires.
Reconciliation will teach you what life
Requires.
Satisfaction will allow you to fleshly
Pacify.
Reconciliation will allow
God’s righteousness to comply.
Satisfaction makes mistakes.
Reconciliation follows fate.
Satisfaction offer conditions.
Reconciliation is consecution.
Satisfaction allows toleration.
Reconciliation offers no interruption.
Satisfaction duplicates
Reconciliation anticipate
Satisfaction deliberate
Reconciliation authenticate
Satisfaction corroborate
Reconciliation demonstrate.
Satisfaction negotiable
Reconciliation accessible.
Satisfaction will have you mumble
Reconciliation will allow
You to be humble.

we were one
now we are two
once we were together
now we are apart
he feels no pain or regret
i hurt and cry at night
life goes on for him
time stays still for me
he sleeps peacefully each night
i suffer endless nightmares
his heart beats
mine has stopped and busted
he says we can be friends
though we are so distant now
i say i love you
he just nods
i call him every night
he never picks up the phone
once we were together
but now we are apart
he is joyful every day
as my heart breaks every minute
day by day
oh how i wish
oh how i wish
we could go back to
once we were together
now we are two
once we were together
now we are apart
he feels no pain or regret
i hurt and cry at night
life goes on for him
time stays still for me
he sleeps peacefully each night
i suffer endless nightmares
his heart beats
mine has stopped and busted
he says we can be friends
though we are so distant now
i say i love you
he just nods
i call him every night
he never picks up the phone
once we were together
but now we are apart
he is joyful every day
as my heart breaks every minute
day by day
oh how i wish
oh how i wish
we could go back to
once we were together

Im stuck.
Stuck between two truths,
two truths and reality.
My defenseless heart tells me that to feel and love is truth,
but my stronghold of rational keeps me sane.
And sane is smart, dependable, and safe.
In between these two is me.
Struggling with reality,
where I stand now.
Between the sleeping lion's den and home.
To be the warrier and capture the lion by its hear is courageous,
but to let him sleep is smart.
I choose both.
I will stand before the beast of beasts,
And wait for him to wake.
When he does i will be here,
ready to fight the never-ending battle.

Your gone
What can I say
I miss you so much
It gets worse with each day
I want to be stong
And make you so proud
But this sadness in me
Gets so loud
Who do I go to to tell all my fears
And when I am crying
Who will wipe all of my tears
I know they say time heals it all
But if I get better
Will I stumble and fall
again

Will I stumble and fall

AFRO ON AFRO
Schism in rhythm,beginning spasms unseaming
Steal your soul the way it kill 3D triangles
Beginning of the end,begging to send
Ready to lend all,bend them all rules
spend them all dues,leave with no clues
wearing no shoes,A hood coat just to make sure
that no more blood pure,will make hearts more poor
of mercy,coz it has no cure.
The sound of the trigger in the land of the nigger
Turning saints to Killers,brothers to dealers
Like the way Dedan was done by a turncoat snitch ere
40 year later,their boys put a statue of honor,scorn,ha?
Afro on Afro,killing their own,the sacrifice sown gone
massacres started after independence,is that self-dependence?
Decay in decadence,Are we kneeling and existing pretending
we living,or standing and dying,defending our meaning?
Am squating and taking,my family waiting to live
in the house they saw on the painting,its mine for the taking
And they cant stop me A-Afro,trying to chain my life bro?
Youve met the wrong guy though,I pass through and through
I posses a radioactive soul,moves further than a BBC radio show
And I will BLOW all that tries to grow
In the land that I sow the sweat of my brow
When will you stop pulling me back,selling me crack
Keeping me in the dark,peering through cracks
Turning your back,on the mark I try to mark?

At one time tears just made me mad
They once let me know I was sad
But I look forward to the times
When I can fall down and cry
Cause it's my only stable place
When hot salt drips off of my face
I feel like somebody cares
I imagine someone standing there
Holding my cheeks, looking into my eyes
With love, telling me that I'll be alright
Sorrow's the only thing I've had
That won't fall away when times get bad
My only loyal, constant friend
I can't wait to cry again
So go on: beat me, hurt me, cheat me
Say you love me then deceive me
Just be yourself and tear me down
I want to know my friend's around
Ironic that sorrow continues to bring
Comfort I can't find in anything
Not God, not men, not family or love
Not money, dreams, friends, sleep, songs, or drugs
They once let me know I was sad
But I look forward to the times
When I can fall down and cry
Cause it's my only stable place
When hot salt drips off of my face
I feel like somebody cares
I imagine someone standing there
Holding my cheeks, looking into my eyes
With love, telling me that I'll be alright
Sorrow's the only thing I've had
That won't fall away when times get bad
My only loyal, constant friend
I can't wait to cry again
So go on: beat me, hurt me, cheat me
Say you love me then deceive me
Just be yourself and tear me down
I want to know my friend's around
Ironic that sorrow continues to bring
Comfort I can't find in anything
Not God, not men, not family or love
Not money, dreams, friends, sleep, songs, or drugs

I get up at 6 am every morning all week long, have to get my kid ready for school plus myself ready for work and get his school snack into his backpack. make sure the bottles are washed from the nights use so that my husband can just make a bottle quickly. plus i have to take the dogs out before i head out. all this has to be done so we can leave at 7:15 am sharp, so that he's not late for school and im not late for work. HE DOESN'T DO ANYTHING!!!! He stays at home and makes a quick "easy" meal for the other two kids we have who don't go to school yet and then plays his xbox all day till it's time for dinner. then he comes at me saying that i need to change the baby in the morning before i leave so that he doesn't have to wake up to a dirty diaper that's full. IT'S NOT THAT HARD TO CHANGE A F**IN DIAPER. Especially after 5 years of doing it. I am sick of doing everything, while he only has to make lunch and take out the trash. and wash the clothes on saturday which is usually only two loads. then i have to put the clothes away too. I am the one who has to clean the house before i go to bed for it to be ready for another day tomorrow. then he's the one who gets to go spend every weekend at his moms house playing games all day and night and going to the movies with his brothers while i have to stay at home and take my turn at taking care of our 4 kids while he only watches 3 of them during the week because one is at school all day. i love him but im getting soo tired of doing everything and him calling ME lazy saying i need to do my duties and get them over with so i wont have to do them later and be able to enjoy my night. im just soo tired and i just don't want to do it anymore. but what can i do? i love him soo much but i feel soo unappreciated.

it's been a long day. I've cooked and cleaned and studied for my test prepared for night classes with an hour to spare and here he comes to complain about the way I love him and the lack of affection I put out. I'm losing my patient on the inside but I don't want it to reflect on the outside but right now what I'm thinking is "you can go #@$% yourself". With all that I do its never enough, and dealing with you is causing me stress. Rather than add to the problems of my day how about you lather up and handle your needs yourself.
