Me

You've changed me...
With ur corrections and reflections
Trying to adjust my tone
And dialect
With ur beliefs and introspects...
How dare u...
Thinking that ur way is the right way
When deep down all I can say is
Go away...
Far away...
Because I am me
And will continue to be
Just that.
Take ur time to see that
My mind is free
From the bonds of what u think
Or how u feel...
I cannot be changed!
I am who I be
So open ur eyes and see
Who I am
Not who u wish that I was
Accept my speak and my words
At times I'm wrong, but I've learned
Accepting one's own flaws is what helps me grow.
Yet u stand there in anger and judge me?
Stop...
Think...
Look in a mirror if u
Need a target to hurl...
Ur imperfections
And ur transgressions
And after that, look elsewhere
Because I simply
Do
Not 
Care.

This is the first design of my book cover. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated

From Him, To Her

For all the pains that I have caused
For breaking ur heart
For telling those lies that tore us apart
I tried to make sense of it all
Give u a purpose for why I fall
She couldn't replace u
Treated me no better than u
Definitely never did the things that u do
And I know it's too late
No chance to reconcile
No reasons for u to smile
But understand that I am sorry
My hindsight is wide open
And u have instilled in me a lesson
But don't let me waste ur gift to me on someone else
How can I right the wrong
Stop ur pain and bring u peace
U probably wish my existence would just cease
Doubting if I ever truly was a friend
There are no words, it's truly a no win
But I'm sorry
I vow to earn back all ur trust
Do whatever it is that I must
To help u appreciate the woman that u are
I take the punches and the curses
I'm sure it's no less than I deserve
But I vow to make it right
To be the man u want me to be
I promise to do right by u
To work this out for me and u
If u decide to give me a chance
My heart is aching
I need ur breath to take this pain from me
But it's up to u to set me free
My tears flow down, I'm on my knees
Begging and pleading for u to forgive me
Because I am sorry.

Endless

Endless thoughts...

Endless dreams put on pause
Violent implosions without cause
Yet u seek answers...

Look for ways to define years of pain 
In hopes that u experience endless truth
And I sit wondering if we should just end this...

Stop the bleeding from our thoughts and minds
Before we truly end up friendless...

Endless questions...

Endless tears...

Fighting years of fears
Of indiscretions
Judging me and my past imperfections
Questioning my desire to be in this...

Endless...

Harmful words and arguments
That serve no point and offer little nourishment
To an overly volatile situation

I sit and wonder what state I'm in
Is it worth the void that we're both in
All u see is ur pain and ur tears
And u rarely, if barely, focus on my own

My hurting u hurt me too
Not sure if u even believe that to be true
So inside I wish that it's all through
Yet we continue on...

Endless...

Trying to append this
Fighting harder to try to win this
Standing strong on our convictions
Knowing all along our plight is endless...

The journey, we wish were clearer
The end of pain, we wish were nearer
All these thoughts come out in tears u shed
And those u cannot see...

Because I haven't allowed u to see
Looking for answers on what to do
How to start over and remain true
To ourselves...

Without changing the advances we've tried to make individually
Mutually come together for the benefit of family
And one another... 

It's our journey
Our endless path...

Of love.
