THE Color

The color of my skin
The color of my life
The color of my thoughts
The color of what ain't right
The color of what is wrong
The color of a curse
The color of a sad song
The color of what hurts
The color of whats ashes
The color of whats burned
The color of whats dirty
The color of the unlearned
The color of the death
The color of many plagues
The color of many crying
The color that many hate
The color of being wicked
The color of train smoke
The color of affliction
The color of being broke
The color of darkness
The color inside a cave
The color of me
The color of a slave
The color of Oprah
The color of Ice Cube
The color of MLK
The color of you too
The color of Ali
The color Booker T.
The color of you
The color of me
The color of beauty
The color of shame
The color of righteousness
The color of he got game
The color of hope
The color of the night wind
The color of love
The color of my skin.

There is a place

Deep in my mind there is a place
Where nothing is bad and everything is grace
Where amazing things happen like the sound of large crowds clapping
Where upside is down and everywhere is in one place

Deep in my mind there is a voice
Where the impossible is possible no matter the choice
You can jump up never to come down and smile never to frown
one word lasts forever never to stop making a sound.

Deep in my mind there is a vision
Where everything is free no existence of prision
The light never goes off and grass is green like a course of golf
Where everything can be found and nothing goes missin'


Deep in my mind is a place called home
Where everyone is there and no one is alone
Where once it gets started is a never ending party
Where its fun all night and all day and forever long.

I Like You

I like you but I don't know you
I want to but I can't show you
I see you but you don't see me
I need you but I'm not needy
If I tell you, you wont tell me
To tell the truth its a little scary
So I keep it hid instead
And confess them in my head
When your around I seldom frown
I'm always up and never down
When you are gone for you I long
all day long for you I long
nothing is wrong because you are right
nothing is dark because you are light
I like you even after death
even though you are not here
you have really never left.

Who are you?

Are you you? Are you me?
Are you us? Are you we?
We are you, We are me.
Seems awkward, the things we be.
Just may-be. Just may-not,
We say why, We say why not.
We say ok, it could be true.
If you are we, then who are you?
