People These Days__** People these Days just take life for granted When God is the one who took our lives and had them planted People these days cannot take the pressure When every single day of there lives is another lecture

People these days only talk about communication But what they need to focus on is Real Life and Education People these days will get ahead in life If they do it the right way and play there cards right

People these days are just plain greedy When they have so much more then the homeless and the needy People these days really dont care Even if another persons life is in Despair

__**Special Love**__

My life is like book, everyday is a new page People Expect so much even when I'm at a young age Its pathetic, what this world has become This place is like dirt as if we live in a slum

Sometime I really don't know what to say Maybe I should go to church, maybe I should pray I'm going up to God just to ask him forgiveness Because God is the only one who can cure our sickness

I thought my life was such a disaster But when I saw her I knew what i was after It was her who I needed to make my life Great I would love her, and hold her, and especially appreciate

I've been searching my life for someone like this She makes me feel better with each hug and each kiss She is someone who I really love I wanna be with her even when we up above

Eighty-nine percent of mankind Are just plain blind and every time they try use there mind they just fall behind No one ever try's to just make time Because they always feel left out and always feels confined
 * Life**

In a sense they feel so left back as if there about to crack and there life is turning black They never find out whats really going on Cause like everyone else there just another used pawn

Everybody's life is just a chance to do right To make the world brighter and to make the world ignite Everybody's life starts out with no problems But later on in life they have to figure them out and solve them
 * By Kevin Acosta

Great Depression** I want to see how people react To the act and the facts that we are starting to slack and move back and trying to relax so that we do not crack

Its 2008 and were going through a Recession Its going to feel like the twenties when we had the Great Depression The pain that its causing is just an aggression Leaving us begging for money like its an obsession

It seems that Wall street cant control there cash Cause just like before, there making our stocks crash There just taking our money and throwing it in the trash Burning us little by little, turning us to ash

All of us are fighting in the Iraq nation But fighting this war was not an expectation All this is doing is creating complications If you look at Vietnam you will see the relations
 * Senseless War**

We know this war is killing innocent young lives Making every single day a battle to survive All the parents pray to god they will come home alive Making there emotions a huge internal dive

Soldiers are getting injured one after the other Scaring there sisters, aunts, and mothers There always terrifying there uncles, fathers, brothers Sacrificing there life just like all the others.

The Santa Maria was riding through the seas He got to America and got them on their knee's The only thing Columbus said stop and listen This is my land so ima make it different
 * Columbus**

He said to the people you are my slaves I really don't care if you live in the caves He brought them on his ship and 200 people died And the rest of the 300 people had cried

America's not his he found it by mistake All Columbus wanted was a piece of the cake He took all the slaves and brought them to spain And after all that they were only left in Pain

We celebrate his day not knowing the story He killed so many people should we really call that glory We say that we know him but the fact is that we don't People don't believe it but the fact is that they wont Thanks to him this world is so departed If it was never for him this never would have started

A special world for you and me A special bond one cant see It wraps us up in a cocoon and holds us fiercely in its womb
 * A Broad Dream of a Victim of Love**

Its fingers spread like fine spun gold Gently nestling us to the fold Like silken thread it hold us fast Bonds like this are meant to last

And though at times a thread may break A new one forms in its wake To bind us closer and keep us strong In a special world where we belong
 * By Elishia Hamilton

The Beginning To My Happiness** A stranger you were once Then with a gentle look you took my hand It took me straight to lovers land As our lives engaged You lit my life and I held both your hands Now that years have passed Our souls have indeed became one How fortunate we are That I have found the love so true That everyone dreamed about
 * By Elishia Hamilton

The Face Of Excellence** I love the way you look at me Your eyes so illuminating and brown Your lips so soft and smooth I love the way you make me laugh And the way you show you care I love when you speak sensitive And the way your always there I love the way you touch me Your touch sends chills down my spine I love when your around me You make me speechless when you say your mine

__Just another day__** Waking up to the alarm clock coming off the wall hearing the crash when I fall of the bed on a morning day open the window hearing the people say Good Morning to you and you and you haha maybe in your world but this aint true where I come from we hear the sounds of the cars blastin there radio car not moving they not going far got dress leave the crib at 1 see them pertty young things walking by there eyes shine in the sun Im not even off the block yet and Im talking to them there moms shouts from the window so we start to run hear the kids play as we pass the park "tag you it" its funny how we apart when we get older and create new things to love Thunder sounds and I look above As the rain falls we start to hide But nowhere to go not this time It was still early in the day for seperation So i say freak it lets go to da crib play some playstation walk back in damn something smells good want to stay for dinner the food be off the hook like it alway should so we chillin relaxing playing having some fun around the way lay back in my bed close my eyes saying damn what a day By: **Mikey "__Prince__" Mike

__So Beautiful__** You make me feel, So Beautiful. Like a sea of different things, All living in Harmony.

You are, So Beautiful, Your eyes as green, As summer's leaves.

You are kind, You are gentle, The perfect angel on earth.

I am not that kind, my morals, they dissatisfy. And yet, you choose me, like a person chooses their destiny.

I am not worthy, I really am not. of your grace, your glory.

But you, You treat me, A vermon that no one wants.

But you want me, You treat me, With your kindness and kind words.

I am a vermon, and yet, with you, I feel so beautiful.

__**Blind**__

Deep in the forest he hears a howl in the eerie mystic night. Gun held tight, against his chest, he’s on the alert, for death lurks about, looking to strangle all those in its path.

Silence. He stands still, looks around, and goes to a tree.  Hiding behind it, he prays that the beast isn’t behind him, and he in front of it.

Another howl. From the front, from the back, hearing footsteps edging closer, death closing in.

Running. He flees to his side, not seeing, blind to all but life, to the will to live.

He runs for a while and comes to stop. Looking around he sees again. Sees that he is no longer in the forest, but on a path instead.

He wonders, wonders where that path leads to. Perhaps to a little house, or maybe to a room filled with books, books that answer the questions and mysteries of life. He wonders if he should follow this path, and for a moment considers not following it.

Then.  A gun shot. Through his eye it goes, along with his life.

Love. Friendship. Passion. All are in a heart. Stone. Lock. Cold. All are in a heart. Belief in a wish for a flower. That is in a heart. Selfish heart. Proud heart. Lost heart. Conditions of a heart. Broken. Fixed. Waiting. Jokes inside the heart. Fixed. Broken. Waiting. Laughter of the heart. Sorrow of the heart. Slowly beating. Dying flower. Falling petals. All are in. All inside. A heart.

Hate?! What do I hate?! I’ll tell you what I hate Everything.
 * Hate Or Love**

I hate the city I hate its bulidings I hate its over congested streets But without it we would have much And that’s why I love it

The world is a body The roads are its veins The people are its cells The buildings are its brains stems The water is its blood The trees are its hairs So to me, the world is another human being struggling to survive.

Hate or Love? I really don’t know But I have a really good idea

I love the landscapes I love the mountains I love the ocean I love the plains, the grass, and the tree’s

Hate or Love? I don’t know Its to complicated To much to think about

I can say I love and hate people I love to hold the ones I care about I having to argue with them I love loving people But I hate hating them
