"Tia" Every day when I wake, there's always this one girl I wanna see/ When I log back into Facebook, she's who I look for on my feed Just like me she is a poet, one who is really good at what she does/ And the other day she wrote me a poem, so here I am showing love I know I'm lucky to have met her, and to have her as a friend/ Cause what we share can't be compared, and I know it'll never end From the poetry which she pens, to the endless convo's that we have/ Her words have the 'power' to mend, and put an end to what was sad The kind of woman if you were to marry, you'd be one happy man/ But I'm just happy that she told me, she's my number one fan Of all the lands I have travelled, whether in life or in my mind/ Never once did I ever imagine, a friendship like this I would find So with every line that I write for her, I just want her to know/ How much love I hold inside, for both this woman and her flow.

"Happy Home" I was surrounded by people who didn't respect me, so I upped and I left/ And began to focus on self improvement, to try regain my self respect I'd neglected what were my own needs, losing the essence of who I was/ I had become needy and self loathing, cause I was lonely and I was lost I had to look past all the hate that I felt, & the hurt held in my heart/ For me to ever see a brighter day, I had to step away from the dark And walk down a path I was unsure of, knowing I had to walk it alone/ Yet I'm so proud that I did, cause now I get to walk into a happy home Looking back on my unhappy home, I know in my heart I have come far/ The endless poems, the nights alone, drunk & stoned with a broken heart It used to start and never stop, but now I stop it whenever it starts/ And takes it's toll, I take control, saving my soul before it's torn in half I can now laugh & I can smile, knowing it didn't kill me, it made me strong/ Though painful like losing my child, the pain that I felt was never as long For way too long, I dwelled on the wrongs, now I belong & I have a purpose/ So no longer do I feel like I'm nobody, pathetically empty & feeling worthless.

"Friend In You" When I was alone you were there, when I was low you showed you cared/ Whether on the phone or in person, you helped a lost person to reappear You seem to lessen every fear, and seemed so near, when I was far/ And now I'm here, I'm so sincere when I say you're a big part of my heart From the start you were a star, that shined so bright in my blackened sky/ And made me happy when I wasn't, and when I was you made me smile You loved the style in which I rapped, a couple years before the ban/ So I always love to get some feedback, from my number one fan I found a friend in you and I'm thankful, for the friendship that we have/ That's why I'm penning you this poem, to give you some of this love back Remember that rap I rapped & recorded for you, back in December, 07/ I was so nervous to play it to ya, but you loved it when you listened We went from pictures & messages, to lyrics, phone calls & (censored)/ And that itself got its own poem, though the title I won't mention 😉 You're such a beautiful person, a woman whom I have nothing but love/ So I'm sending you this dedication, to thank you for all of the above.
