[hometext] => sometimes you jsut gotta write and get some things off your chest
[bodytext] => Sometimes I wish For my former life Where I Creped, hustled And dealt every night Cause life was simple And I didn’t have any cares Now… ***** it… Life ain’t fair I used to throw a gang sign And did what I had to do Just to live another day I drove fast To get to the spot on time I used to spend Every Friday night With a different girl If she wasn’t different Then I was definitely Sleeping with her I made more money In an hour Than my dad made in a week I’d give anything To go back to those streets Why did I Get outta the hood Life wasn’t good But I couldn’t complain Never before Have I ever felt such drain Till now... On my will to live I’ve held someone When they died I’ve made someone’s Mama cry I’ve succumbed To the flesh And it’s desires I’ve been caught In hateful crossfire I joined a gang When I was 15 Eventually I fulfilled All of my street dreams I lived through this To live a life That ain’t going well Somewhere between Now and then I took my issues And wrote them out With a pen I went from The white kid Hanging out with the thugs To the depressed kid Desperately in love Poetry was my way to escape Why couldn’t I see my heart Placed on these I stakes I’ve been in love And felt the pain of heartbreak I’ve seen love From the outside looking in I’ve sat and waited For true love to begin And I’m beginning to think Love will never find me So I look at my life And wonder why I’m here Why won’t I be satisfied Till I dry all her tears Sometimes I wish I had died That I hadn’t survived That horrific night Cause all I want is one girl To love for the rest of my life © Wayne Wende [comments] => 2 [counter] => 225 [topic] => 22 [informant] => swiftsouljah [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )
