Hiatus
I don't know if I mentioned this in the post before, but I'm going to try to write my own book. You're probably like WOW!, but we'll see. Most of this information will come from a few websites I know and I'll try writing most of it myself which will be a challenge. I don't mind, this isn't going to be a quick project. I want this to take time so I can carve a masterpiece.
Oh also, I'm currently reading Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy. Great book so far I'll be on the sixth Cantos in a few minutes. Afterwards, I have my own to-read list which include these other books: Virgil's Aenied, Geoffry Chauncer's The Canterbury Tales, and to finish up Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Faust. After I'm done reading those--It'll be a while--I'll find more great books to read. The internet is an amazing universe. There's so much to learn it's amazing.
My favorite informational/encylopedical website has to be Wikipedia. Their whole philosophy is great. I love how there's open source editing on their files, even if there are a few "trolls" who try to screw things up. One of their most potent idea's may be the Wikiversity, where it's bascially an e-college. It's a great idea, but it's not really a large project yet. We need more credible professors from other universities to help out, which I doubt would happen. Either way, it's a great idea, kid's can learn what they want without having to really pay the 40 grand a year for it. Maybe it doesn't even have to be for college, there's a high school course too for kids who want to learn things themselves but can't.
Ok well, it's Friday and I've got an exact week until my AP and SAT exams. This is going to be tough, I wan't to try to "asian" the tests but that may be bad as well. My grades are alright but if they see a Great SAT score they'll think, "This kid is probably lazy, we don't want him." I need some congruity between my grade point average and my SAT score, despite this, I still want my SAT scores to be great.
Another quote,
Education: that which reveals to the wise, and conceals from the stupid, the vast limits of their knowledge.

Philosophy
So I guess you could consider me a philosopher. I do in fact, love wisdom. I can't imagine life without knowing what I do now. Although what I know is feeble in comparison with others. All I have really is understanding in science and religion. I feel like my life is complete; that what I have is what others spend their life searching for. With this profound knowledge it's hard to imagine that others haven't been enlightened too. It's weird as well, other philosophers today are not as famous as the ones from the past. We know so much more today it's like this knowledge is worthless, the prior authors have answered our questions. In a way it's like, the earlybird gets the worm, except we can't really choose to be early or late. They're the lucky one's who were made before and are much more well known becuase they figured it out first. Now there's technology like computers that we have much more to research but besdies that all we have to do is live our lives and wait until it's all over. I foresee a period of enormous happiness, where society decays and everyone is glad. Something big will happen, after much ignorance and excessive bloodshed which is currently occurring in this world. When will this happiness take place? That's not for me to know, even being the "wisdom lover" that I am. I just hope somewhere along the line I see from here or above a great echoing, "I told you so!" Today life is more precious since it's being more easily taken away with the exponential developments of technology. With a pull to a semi circular trigger, being liquidated by nuclear bomb, or any of the other seemingly infinite ways to Hell's "nirvana". Being born in the first place is tough as well. We're born from a competition with millions of other competitors, to be chosen to live and taking that gift for granted is unappreciative. An interesting thought: Perhaps no matter which one wins, the same soul is given to it. That would make sense in some ways as well as an uplifting thought. (If you don't know what I'm talking about "which one wins" think about Biology and then a male's reproductive system.)
Today I've been reading a lot and felt really inspired, it was an interesting and seemingly rare moment for me. So I decided to write although, not about this. I've been reading about the alleged existence of a "gay gene" which has prompted me to think deeply about it, it will probably be the topic of my next post. The reason is because too many people including kids in my school believe that there is a gene and that it's more acceptable nowadays. They are people too, you don't just treat them like outcasts and label them. I'll have more info about the issue next, my idea's are just waiting to come out.
This quote seems to back up my first paragraph about philosophers best,
All intelligent thoughts have already been thought; what is necessary is only to try to think them again.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe(This guy rules)

Depression
Depression is so... dumb. There's no benefit to it, except for some fruity bands dressed in black singing about how "sad" they are and how much money they get from sad pizza faced teenagers. If you keep talking about how sad you are it will only get worse, you're not saving yourself. There are things you can do though, there's always religion whatever it may be as long it's one of the "big three." I don't know about the other smaller ones but as long as you believe in one God, that's enough. If your like me who wanted the truth rather than just faith to prove it, I'll help. I've done enough work to figure all of this stuff out and asked a scholar any questions I had and it all fit. After figuring this stuff out, I can't understand how I wanted to kill myself over something as dumb as looks. My idea of myself changed as well, I just hated myself enough back then to think I was ugly and worthless. I guess I'm not. I hope to help someone who was in my position that would probably make me a lot happier and feel like my life is complete. It's weird, I just want to do my part too... But it's hard when so many are led the wrong way. I know there's no way to change everyone, so to help a few people and have them thank me would be more than enough for me.
Hmm, anyways... Love is probably the number one cause to depression. Romanticism is a tool used by the devil to trick people into killing themselves for reasons like, "If I can't have you I can't live." Love was made by God to love Him first, now that's something you probably haven't though of, right? "Love has been given to humanity so that it may be shown foremost towards God, who created us from nothing, who provides for us, gives us every blessing, and who promised us an eternal life filled with happiness. Also, love is an emotion that must be directed towards those who love God and whom God loves, that is, to believers. A person is loved for his closeness to God, his fear of God, and his care to protect His prerogatives. All these forms of love are directed toward God, and toward those objects in which His attributes are manifested. In fact, for a believer to feel love for the enemies of God and His religion is forbidden in the Qu'ran."
He also doesn't want you to hurt yourself and thinking your closer to him by doing that. "For example, there are Christians who think they are drawing closer to Jesus by having themselves crucified. In certain Oriental religions, such as Buddhism, starving oneself, sleeping in an uncomfortable place, and other forms of "self immolation," are supposed to make one holy. The problem is that there is no such idea that in the Qu'ran that a person should cause himself pain, "God does not wrong people in any way; rather it is people who wrong themselves." (Qur'an, 10:44) "
"It is interesting that people, whom Satan has misled through sentimentalism, seem to be drawn to ill feelings such as pessimism, hopelessness, sorrow, grief, and depression. Instead of living with the peace of mind resulting from putting one's trust in God, people commit themselves into continual sorrow." So depression is just stupid, it's a tool and nothing more.
That's my post about depression and my little religion course interweaved. I hope you had fun reading it because you probably didn't. Here's a little passage from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Faust. Mephistopheles plays the devil and is talking to God in this scene:
Mephistopheles
To ask how all below is doing now,
And usually receive me without pain,
You see me too among the vile crowd.
Forgive me: I can’t speak in noble style,
And since I’m still reviled by this whole crew,
My pathos would be sure to make you smile,
If you had not renounced all laughter too.
You’ll get no word of suns and worlds from me.
How men torment themselves is all I see.
The little god of Earth sticks to the same old way,
And is as strange as on that very first day.
He might appreciate life a little more: he might,
If you hadn’t lent him a gleam of Heavenly light:
He calls it Reason, but only uses it
To be more a beast than any beast as yet.
He seems to me, saving Your Grace,
Like a long-legged grasshopper: through space
He’s always flying: he flies and then he springs,
And in the grass the same old song he sings.
If he’d just lie there in the grass it wouldn’t hurt!
But he buries his nose in every piece of dirt.
I like how he's a bit comedic as well as truthful... I'm done writing.

Reading is the most fundamental, important thing you can do. Think about it, if you couldn't read how different would your life be? What would you know? Basically nothing besides how-to labor and simple things like that. For me, I can't stand not knowing something. School curbs my curiosity, so I read and wonder. To wonder is to begin to understand and I love to undertake a new journey as much as possible before the days end. Studying is very important as well, without it I probably wouldn't know as much things that I've taught myself throughout the year. Having good habits for learning is one way to ensure it. Coming home from school and taking 2 hours to do your homework is good, but taking the rest of the time after that to learn something extracurricular is the best way. With some guidance and discipline that would be a beneficial thing to do for your kids. They'd thank you later for that no matter how much they complain then. Just make sure you teach them about religion, it will answer most of the questions that others have spent their lives figuring out or others who spent a few seconds with a gun and a finger on the trigger. There's no such thing as dumb questions just dumb answers. When you reach some point of above-average potency you'll see respect. What is life without being able to read?
How to develop a genius, a question wondered by many and is painstakingly obvious. Do it yourself. If you want your kid to read, help them find it within themselves. After that don't just leave it up to the schools, teach them as much as you can everyday. That's why homeschooled kids seem to be smarter than average Americans. Go ahead and teach your kid how to do Math when he's not even in school, you'll be surprised. Spending time with your kid is very important, they'll feel better and so will you. Even if it's hard to, make your cherished time as productive and effective as possible. There's nothing that would shock teachers more than seeing how some student is doing algebra while the others are still adding. I mean think about it, it's obvious. The only problem with having a smart kid is that they'd be made fun of by some insecure kid. Well, just try to have him do pushups everyday and get him stronger. No weights until about sophomore year in high school. Running around, eating healthy, and pushups is just as effective. If your kid is smart and strong, I don't know what to say. He'll probably very envied, but it's not that you want them to have it. It's just a repercussion of habits and parental intervention.
Whatever the case, it's up to you. "The important thing is not to stop questioning.",
"Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value." Einstein
On top of it all, if your having trouble helping someone learn try remembering what it was like to not know rather than make fun of.
"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense." Ralph Waldo Emerson

Fate
Really nice quote. It reminds me of how Semso helped save his girlfriend from suicide. It's really hard to imagine that but it could have happened. I view him as a sort of hero in that way because of how someone can help and prevent really bad things from happening. Suicide is not the way to go. I feel sad when I read up on other people on the internet who killed themselves. I think to myself that maybe I could have prevented that in some way; I want to help. You know, when I was younger and dumber I actually thought about doing it. That's when I was a bit atheist and denied the truth. When I think about it, who knows, I could have died if my life went in another direction and read false books and believed it. I'm really glad now that this is what's happened since then, and that I'm not "just another" sad story. Maybe the reason why I didn't go in the wrong direction is because I am too cowardly to do it, and because I want to leave this world with a respectable reputation or life that would be interesting enough to be remembered in history. That's probably my main goal, but I doubt it would happen unless I steal a history book and write myself in there somewhere. Maybe I should be a do-gooder and help out everyone like Mother Teresa, I don't know. Well, I'm going to sleep to watch some "movies". Talk to you later.

Realization
This weekend was really fun, besides the fact that I got suspended. Thursday night Wathen and I drove around and did nothing really, that was ok since I got to drive his car up my street. Friday I went to Semso's, we rented NBA Street V3 and it was boring all day since he didn't want to go anywhere, plus that game sucks. I played it for the first time today and beat his ass in it. So on saturday we went to the NY International Auto Show, now that was awsome. Being around so many exotic, foreign, concept, and new factory cars was amazing since it was my first time going to any show like that. The cars there were nothing short of awsome. Lamborghini, Ferrari, Saleen, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Ford, Nissan, and whatever else was there. My muscles ached from standing up for so long plus, we worked out the day before and my back had it the worst. Then from there we just walked around and sooner or later headed home. That was like 10 and got home at 12. Then we watched Hostage, pretty crazy film. The whole storyline was good and what got me had to be the scary stoner/goth kid who's death was a "movie" ending. It's something that I could have created, the goth comes up behind this guy throws a molotov cocktail at some cop, he dies. Then the goth walks in the room with Bruce Willis, this girl, and the girls brother. He throws a cocktail into some corner then loses his energy when trying to throw one at the girl but instead drops to his knees. He has a little flirt scene with the girl where love overcomes him. He couldn't throw the Molotov at her, instead he drops it on the floor(Which sucks because the alcohol goes on his body and he's soon in flames). That's the scene that's going to stick to me from the movie. Because that's the kind of scene that I could make, I really think that there is an ability in me to be a writer of movies. My dreams are so vivid and beautiful, and that's what I like. The freedom of dreaming within myself, it could be about anything and still be fun. Well, it's almost 2 AM and don't know what to do. I've been sitting, thinking, and writing since 12:44. Maybe I should go to sleep and study in the morning.
"Don't ever be afraid to tell someone how you feel because if you are then you could miss out on the greatest thing in your life." If only... That's not for me to decide. The quote means something, I've taken most of my advice and thank others for making mistakes so that I didn't have to but learned from it as well. Whenever I go back to Europe, I know my oppurtunity awaits. You know sometimes I try to fit a quote here that can change someone's life, something written so beautfully and perfectly. The more I try the more I realize there isn't one that powerful, just a realization or end result. Just like major events don't occur without a series of minor events. You understand? I hope so. I'll try to add them anyways. G'Night.

Back to public education, it's a bad idea, "One out of three students entering high school doesn't graduate? Minority students are twice as likely as whites to drop out. Even students who get their diploma have the reading and math skills expected of middle school students in other nations. Why? Establishment politicians say that the solution is more money and higher taxes. Yet, private institutions, which spend half of what public schools do, graduate a larger percentage of their students with higher levels of academic achievement. Interesting? Sylvan Learning Centers, an after-school tutoring service, guarantees that students will advance one grade in their chosen subject with only 36 hours of instruction. Ombudsman Educational Services specializes in educating high school drop outs. Students advance one grade level in about 20 hours of instruction. How can these two private schools be so successful for half the price? Both tailor their educational program to each individual's needs, instead of offering a one-size-fits-all program that government regulations demand of public and private institutions. We need deregulation.Today bureaucrats decide when children will attend school, how long they will attend, who will teach them; and what they will learn. Parents and teachers should make these decisions. Through deregulation, education will be so affordable that charitable scholarship organizations will be easily able to help those in need. We will once again be the most literate nation on earth." It's all true. Public education is retarded, plus we need to fire people like the one's I'm thinking of just because they don't deserve it and aren't smart enough. I don't understand how you could argue against this, you can't. This is the truth although, some may fear change it won't be bad. Like they say, change is good. It all depends on the subject, in this case, it's very good.

The Good Die Young
"Good Die Young"
[Intro]
Dawg....I shouldn't have left, They wouldn't have tried this shit if I was wit ya
Maybe we would have picked another time
Or chose anotha way
Or maybe my prayers would have convinced him to choose another soul
Shit, it's just me, mum and Tony now
Man you look so peaceful right now... how can I argue wit that
They say...
[Chorus]
They say the good die young,
Thats why I think that you should have fun (when your young)
Cos time won't wait for noone (uh huh)
When god calls, you gotta go home (go home)
They say the good die young, (die young)
Thats why I know that we go' have fun,
In this life cos you only get one
When God calls for me, don't cry till I just went home
[Kon Artis]
It's true that everybody heard, there mama say every days like this
When you see, one of your friends die in the mist
In the struggle, went through circumstances
Arrested every day just to prove a point to a friend
Even then, accidents are prone to happen to any man
A woman is dumb enough to pretend
That her, god won't hold them accountable for sins
If they commit, they try to repent the sense of Repent
But I guess (thats just the way things go)
I was blessed to see 24 (24)
To wake up to that "Hi, my name is" video
Motivated me to write what i wrote
And I knew my little brother sold dope
An mom and daddy want to move our road
I did it, I still got a lot to prove and show
I just which we aint have to lose Bugz to the struggle
Cos you know...
[Chorus]
They say the good die young,
Thats why I think that you should have fun (when your young)
Cos time won't wait for noone (uh huh)
When god calls, you gotta go home (go home)
They say the good die young, (die young)
Thats why I know that we go' have fun,
In this life cos you only get one
When God calls for me, don't cry till I just went home
[Bizzare]
I know you used to Bizzare on some silly shit
But Niggas in my cliq, is dying quick
In detroit, niggas don't party
They pull a .44 out, snatch off bacardis
Thats why I keep the pistol under the trunk
Im 27 years old, too old to be gettin jumped
And fuck rap, I miss Karnail Pitts, b-u-g-z
Tattoed on my wrist
Me and you in the jeep, listen to swing beats
It's a shame me and Fuzz don't even speak
I got married, my wife name is D
Peace to 31 and 51-50, miss you
[Kuniva]
I came back on that tragic, my phone rung
And Bizarres voice tellin me, Bugz was gone home
It was like a knife piercing my chest and I couldn't breath
I didn't wanna accept it, didn't wanna believe it
I swear with this weight dawg, I cried so hard
Literally, Denaun had to carry me to the car
While I stand in this booth now it's tearin me apart
But I had to let it out cos it was tearin at my heart
Cos he died over somethin so petty and so small
A human life is so very precious I hope ya'll
Understand how I'm feelin cos I love you bugz
I wanna rhyme wit you, laugh wit you, hug you bugz
But I can't and you was so close to seein dreams
A coward came along and took you away from the team
So don't mistake this track, it's just another song
This goes out to everyone who lost a loved one
Cos you know
[Chorus]
They say the good die young,
Thats why I think that you should have fun (when your young)
Cos time won't wait for noone (uh huh)
When god calls, you gotta go home (go home)
They say the good die young, (die young)
Thats why I know that we go' have fun,
In this life cos you only get one
When God calls for me, don't cry till I just went home
[Proof]
They say it's never too late, to have an early childhood
If I could, turn back the hands of time, God should
Forgive what i did as a kid to run blocks
Now my dreams are just dream cops and gun shots
The fun stops when your homies up in a box
My dudey bole, rest his soul, snuffed by the cops
I use to ?? a lot, if theres a guy by me say somethin
If you love her so much why didn't u gave nothin
When he took my homie, snuck was only in 11th grade
Now I hope to see your face at the heaven gates
It aint never late in the game, this hatin remains
With a grudge to see slugs straight through my frame
My heart aches with the pain, the life in his breath
We gotta have fun now, theres only minutes left
In the depth, distress young as a ??? did
To get tats of my fallen homies, I aint got enough skin
[Chorus]
They say the good die young,
Thats why I think that you should have fun (when your young)
Cos time won't wait for noone (uh huh)
When god calls, you gotta go home (go home)
They say the good die young, (die young)
Thats why I know that we go' have fun,
In this life cos you only get one
When God calls for me, don't cry till I just went home
[Swifty]
When I was younger I knew four brothers that wasn't wise
That crash and the driver died,
My partner on the passenger side was paralysed
And Im surprised by the look of that ride that the other peeps survived
Nine months later another one died
Somebody shot him in the side when he was startin up his ride
3 years go by, I made a hell of a run
And thats when funky got done, a joey playin wit guns
And tookie over funds, karty was my man
And reggy, I wish that I was wit you in that van
And Bugz if it wasn't for you
You know I wouldn't be standin in this booth,
Thats the truth, I miss ya'll...
[Chorus x2]
They say the good die young,
Thats why I think that you should have fun (when your young)
Cos time won't wait for noone (uh huh)
When god calls, you gotta go home (go home)
They say the good die young, (die young)
Thats why I know that we go' have fun,
In this life cos you only get one
When God calls for me, don't cry till I just went home
From Senad's Profile:
And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
A brief candle; both ends burning
An endless mile; a bus wheel turning
A friend to share the lonesome times
A handshake and a sip of wine
So say it loud and let it ring
We are all a part of everything
The future, present and the past
Fly on proud bird
You're free at last.

Although, I didn't know the guys I felt them leave. After seeing the movie The Good Die Young on hamzam.com with Hashem's pictures, it makes you think. If I ever die, I want it to be dramatic somehow, Movielike... Where someone researches stuff about me, and finds this website. Everyone would read it and be like, wow. It's not like I'm Anticipating it, but I'm not afraid of it.
There's no one more important to love and fear except for Allah. All of the evidence used is so significant, but there are still non-believers. "Ignorant people ask questions that we're answered thousands of years ago." People who believe in such trash like, "Prophet of Doom". What a joke, the author attempts to take the Qu'ran, re-write many of its verses to make it sound as an evil, mischevious, war mongering religion. The truth is in the actual Qu'ran, Bible, or Torah. They all share the same values and monotheistic idea's, they just each appeal to different kinds of people, so we have a choice I guess. There's no need to attack each others monotheistic religions, there really isn't. If there's anyone to try to change it would be atheists or the polytheists. However, we can't change everyone, if God had willed, everyone would have been guided. So that's why I give up on converting some people. I'm here just to present the idea's and hope they accept it.
I heard a nice quote somewhere, it was something like this. A baby cries when he is born because he's been seperated from God and wants to go back. It's part of my last poem. It just sounds nice, I don't know what else to say about it.
Crimson Flux
May my flux o'er my body never lay
along my pores, so sudden and flayed
inside my heart, may my blood start
to find a way, in all of the gray
create a path for one's self in the
aftermath, to never stray or run away,
to make a living beneath decay, to
reach high and never slay, think of me
when you pray. Have a family and never hope,
that your wife will never end like me.
For this day is when I expire.And for you
to desire another woman who loves thee as
much as me and live a life without trifle,
be wealthy as should you and I have been,
just a lie told by the omniscient eye.
Ended as the malefic one drew nigh. And
soon to seperate us.Finish the rest
consider today the first day of your
conquest and leave me ablest,you are blessed
and forever more, deserve nonetheless.
Weird, I didn't know I knew those vocab words back when I was 13 haha. Whenever I'm out of idea's I can always just look around the website for what other people wrote about and feed off of that. I just wrote something now and here I've got two names to pick from, "The passing of the Torch" or "The Cycle". Read it and see what you think,
In my dark mind, I begin to percieve
Of this world, what a world, without me.
The hidden beauty is between the ears
For when I die another miracle appears.
A crying baby is born and my mind begins to think...
The baby cries because he's been seperated from Him
My family cries, but I realize that I've returned to Him.
So when, if ever, I die, please don't cry, you will see.
Sooner or later, lover or hater, you'll be up here with me.
I don't know if it's that great, none of my stuff really is. Anyways, I like it.
It's 9:00 PM so, I'm going to finish homework and stuff. Later.

Poetry attempts.
"Copernicus"
Why is it men are made fun of for knowing?
Don't you see that ignorance is growing?
Their idea's shunned, reputations done,
Sad, lonely, and considered phony.
Exorcised, demoralized, humiliated for fun.
Why, back then, were they outcasts and had their homes razed,
when now, my friend, their idea's are taught and praised?
If you don't know Copernicus' story you probably won't get it.
He was a great astrologist and people rejected his ideas like, the Earth revolved around the Sun, not the other way around.
----------
Whatever happened to the "Individual"?
They try to fit in with groups, some men change.
They toss their best friend out, their clothes, personality and morals.
To use the same personae the "group" uses.
Why did he have to change for them?
Doesn't he see they should like him for who he is,
and not something he pretends to be?
--------
The old man quivers to see his grandchildren wither.
They're fragile, weak, uneducated, meek.
The old man remembers stories from back home when,
there men were actually brave.
Fighting for what's right, keeping culture in tight.
Now looking at his grandchildren to see how the traditions have passed.
They know nothing except for what they see on TV.
It's sad to see how easily a people with a great history have faded black.
--------
This is for the kid who could just never fit in,
No one was like him nor did they like him.
His life was miserable, lonely, and different.
He was amazing at schoolwork, could have changed the world.
But instead, killed himself and others because he couldn't fit in with the world.
While they're all crying on TV in front of the school,
they knew this wouldn't have happened if they hadn't treated him like a fool...
===============
Here was a random thing I was writing afterwards about "Me and movies" and came up with something in a reflection.
Lucidly dreaming love movies. I'm probably too passionate...(Here comes the huge thought spur) That could be why I'm so different! The ideas of these movies are too unrealistic and that's how I feel about life too, unrealisticly. When, in fact, I'm not at all. Interesting... How can I change? Be more realistic(eh), never expect things to go "my way". Because with prior experience, it doesn't, it never has. Be more free, comfortable with myself. I can never fully know myself, "if I did I would run away." It's hard to mean what you think, it's probably the hardest thing I can do. Well, If I think it's hard it will be mentally harder than it really is, so I don't know.
Writing a few times a day keeps the doctor away.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
So true. Remember when I said that the books on my shelf were going to be read? I didn't read them... It's only for 20 minutes. I don't understand why I never get to it.
We lay aside letters never to read them again, and at last we destroy them out of discretion, and so disappears the most beautiful, the most immediate breath of life, irrecoverable for ourselves and for others.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Johann is a great writer, I only really started reading his stuff because of his "IQ". Stephen Hawking regards IQ's and people who boast them as, "stupid" or "morons". It's true.
All of the knowledge I or anyone else has everyone can acquire, think about it.
I'm going to read up more on my poet to research Theodore Roethke. I've already read something from him and he's pretty good at writing.
Every step I will take to get better.

A poem
sorry i didnt tell you before

as weird as this may be
i want to know if,

My poem. Short but sweet, or it just sucks. I'll let the recipient decide...
No regrets.
Let me think about what to write. On my own ;) Maybe I'll post it on next time.

Build You Up, the way I feel now.
...
Listen if you let me, I'll b the reason you shine
It's a secret, I want the world to know dat you mine
But on sum real shit, communications could b betta
So I'm writin this song instead of a love Letter.
They gon play it on da radio a hundred times a day
I figure, when you hear it, you gon stop n think of me
I wanna get to know you, and b the reason you Smile
Girl you know where I'm from, you know how I get Down
When times are tough, tell me dat I'm special
Not rap, I mean me, dat I'm special
You know they say diamonds are a girls best friend
Press yo stones, could you put me befo' them
If so, I'll see to it dat they'll always around
Nothin but da best, now how does dat sound
If I drop a jewl when we talk, you can keep it
Girl you on my mind all da time, dat's a secret shhhh
...
When I think about you thinkin dat you feel da same way
Was it juss my 'magination, to get runnin away
If you ready to ride, girl come on, lets roll
G5, how I fly, 'ma lets go
It was hard to measure da pleasure of havin you in my presents
Yo smile makes me smile, I show you my style
We can shop a lil bit, I'll pick out sum shit
One pair at a time, till yo shoe game sick
Now who knows, what the future holds
We be together prolly, fo betta or for worse
Like Whitney and Bobby
If you wanna play house, we can play house then
But wait.. why pretend when you come in (wet) ?
Befo I'll b yo buddy in bed, lemme b yo best friend
Girl it's mo' then lust, I want yo trust
You keep it reel wit me, I keep it reel witchu
Cuz I know witchu by my side, there's nothin I can't do
...
Some more 50 quotes

I’m a track star running through life chasing my dream
...
Listen you can call me what you want, black and ugly
But you can't convince me the Lord don't love me
...
An Ol’G told me God’s favorites have a hard time
Your out the hood that’s good now stay on the grind
I’m a sponge knowledge and wisdom my hits yall fast
I’m in a class by myself you do the math...
