Nothing I wouldn't do

This is my latest song that I wrote today it is a song about addiction I could see as a rock ballad.. Let me know what you think.

Nothing I wouldn't do

I am standing here out in 
the rain under the dark
cold clouds of the winter
skies staring in the
dirty windows through a
strangers eyes waiting for
you to come back to me
watching the pages of
my life roll by as the ink I
write begins to spill
waiting for you to come
back to this place
so desperate to
see Your face why
Won't you meet me in
our broken place.

Chorus

I need to feel your skin
against mine one more time
can you show me how
to make me feel again
there's no one who
can do what you can to me
And nothing I wouldn't do
to make you see without you
I'm nowhere I want to be.

What else is there left
for me to say
I am waiting for you
to came back to me
even as the days of last
begin to fade away
I am waiting for you to
come back to me
I keep screaming out
your name they all believe
I am insane will you meet
me one last time in our
broken place where we both
can disappear as we erase
our faces behind the smoke
that has no soul or faith that
the
glass will cast as it breaks

Chorus
I need to feel your skin
against mine one more
time can you show me how
to make me feel again
there's no one who
can do what you can tome
and nothing I wouldn't
do to make you see
without you, I'm nowhere
I want to be.

I'm so tired and have no
more strength to fight with
demons that we all make 
sometimes I feel like
laying down give them
my life surrender to the evil
that lives inside.
I need to feel your skin
against mine one more time
can you show me how
to make me feel again
there's no one who
can do what you can to me
and nothing I wouldn't do
to make you see
without you, I'm nowhere
I want to be.
I need you to hear
what words are trying to say
before my ink runs dry
and fade away
I need to feel your skin
against mine one more time
can you show me how
to make me feel again
there's no one who
can do what you can to me
and nothing I wouldn't do
to make you see
without you, I'm nowhere
I want to be.

When I close my eyes

When I Close my Eyes I might not be able to change the world and I might not be able to change your mind I might not be able to make you love me but I can dream about It when I close  my eyes late at night when I am living somewhere in my mind for  that is where  I go every chance  When I want to escape All the violence and the hate a place where you and I walk hand and hand Down the peaceful streets At night after our date A place that is filled with laughter and tears drinking margaritas on the beach with you while we are dancing in the rain where I always smile and I forget all the pain a place where peace has won the war and race matter not any more where we can all now dance out in the streets rich or poor now all live next door to door a place where the sun shines every day and there are no dark clouds anymore where there are no chains that bind us all a...

It has been 10 years since I wrote my first book.

  "A story of one man's epic love for his son who is not of his blood." One day I was woken up by a dream I think it was really a nightmare I was alone or so I thought, I was seeing shadows and I kept hearing voices whispering in my ear so I started listening and writing it down, I still do that today. That was ten years ago and with those words, I wrote my first book., The Battle Lost: Ryder's Birth, It was a whopping fifty-two pages each a separate piece of poetry with extremely bad grammar, misspelled words, and no punctuation I had a good friend go through it when I got it back there were so many red marks I flashed back to high school. It has been on Amazon's top ten Epic Poetry (Free) in the Kindle Store for ten years. Ryder is now eleven years old and doing awesome it really was an epic battle physically, mentally, and emotionally fought in Parker County, Texas. DNA does not matter if you love that child enough and I Proved that. Actually, Attorney Bethel T...

Happily ever after amen.

Happily ever after amen.  Every now and then you will meet someone that makes your heart begin to pound so hard that it feels as if it will break through your chest or crack a few ribs at best, as you can hear  your blood flowing through  your veins like a mighty river fed by the rains of angry massive wintkrms to the sea also making it hard to breathe as you start to feel the heat coming from somewhere down deep in your soul smoldering until you see her beautiful face then your heated passion takes control igniting a raging fire the is now burning out of control as it feels like it is two hundred fifty degrees and your boiling from the inside, as tears fall from your eyes as their sheer beauty is so bright it leaves you feeling blind, and when they look up and smile at you the oh so real feeling of panic hits you right in the face as you freeze up talking nothing but gibberish losing all concept of speech and losing control of your knees falling to the ground as if you w...
