FARM GIRL
Tucked away on a little farm,
in the colony of tennessee, hided in Texas.
A farm girl yearns for civilization, for hope of a new dawn.
oh she wish her wings could open,
her heart could mend,
her thoughts of belonging could come to realization.
she would cherish the moments,
those moments not spent in the stables,
those barnless, well desired moments.
Her imagination runs wild with thoughts, could she just be allowed the opportunity.
She thinks of hiding away on the farm truck going into town,
but what are the securities, she thinks back.
when shall that day come, when I stop wearing these raggeddy, tattered pants, these botton unappealling shirts.
When can I be look at in an admired way, and not look down on.
When will I walk into a store picking up a dress and heals, instead of tending to the farm.
My heart desire things of greater value,
things that makes me happy,
My life yearn for more, for that feeling incomparable.
I desire compatibility,
haven't I given enough?
I am human, flesh, blood and bone.
I need my kind, my days.
I need moments that last.
I have reached my full potential here, I am of a greater calling.

A MAN'S STRUGGLES
Does the smile on my face, paint the story of my life?
I am man, and only man faces the cold of the wild alone.
If only u knew, what my heart was saying beneath this glorious smile.
It would paint a grim picture,
But I am putting the best outside.
should the cloth I wear be a symbol of the struggles I have been through?
I am only man, and only man bares flesh like mine.
I have felt the burnt of fire from within,
I have had my skin pealed like oranges,
I have struggled. a man's struggle
should my bank account reflect my worth today?
I got no money in the bank, but I think I am worth something.
And even though I struggle to make my next step, I am holding on because soon life will come full circle.
I know I cant hang with the guys as much as i want to,
This struggle will not end my Joy.
Can u fearly assess my growth, without knowing where I am coming from?
these struggles have molded me,
I can see it in the peoples eyes that have known me
I am the man I am today,
because I have grown.
Are you going to judge me before getting to know me?
Give me a chance to put me down, before you do me,
allow me to speak before you shout me out,
My background dont limit me,
I am as capable as anyone else.
a man's struggles help to mold them.
I am still struggling, I am still being molded.
I cant be perfect but I want to get as close to perfection as possible.
