FRIENDS THAT NEVER MADE IT WITH US

LOST FRIENDS

"Some friends we don't forget, they just fall behind"

- Tormented pockets that should hold -

Fallen out are past friends 

I never walked away,

 They chose to remain put as our

 pages in life came to fold.

THE GIRL IN MY DREAM - PART. II

IT'S HER AGIN

"She completes my dreams complementing my reality happy,

I desire her without a lust full appetence. Just her, her alone"

Her, again.

She resides deep in me

Silent she exists, alive

Kept away from others

I wish her mine secretly.

THIS IS MY STORY

THIS IS MY STORY

"No one can ever tell your story better then you can"

I believe

  

I believe in dreams, I believe in me

I believe that world peace is death,

As I fill my lungs with my last breath.

  

I believe my love has no limit

Even though cut short from those

that can't please it.

  

I believe in struggles

Trying to stay alive when cursed

Surviving free from war,

hunger and things we detest.

  

I believe in you and I.  Friends, lovers

 and strangers living without fight

I believe in darkness, the abyss

The opposite of light, and the life

 we wished we lived.

  

I believe that I will die

Without breath, with no heart beat

Free from the earthly hell so please don't cry.

  

I believe that you will hate me at a point

Your love for me will vanish, and your

heart stained by black paint.

I believe in these words

For they come from my heart, so they are my own

Once I was young, But now I believe that I am grown.

THE GIRL IN MY DREAM

CHASING HER REAL

I wish she would stop my chase, keeping me away from 

captive in my skull. Existing as part of my reality's concept.

I chase her through blind folds

Past my imagination falling apart.

Just before I awake to reality's real

Struggling at best to keep my eyes closed.

"I pray to God that my imagination holds."

SHE DRIVES ME CRAZY

CRAZY FOR HER

"Lust is an addiction"

Woman:

Men lust for me

Crazy they go 

Without sense.

Relapsing over me

Addicts to my flesh.

I push them to melt

Staining their horny pants.

iMAGINATIVE BELIEF

iMAGINE 

"Can anyone carry on a dream silently in their mind without

 waking up to reality as the truth we all hope it was a lie? "

Why don't you go ahead and sit right next to me

I will make it all clear for you

Make you understand exactly what it is you see.

Capture your imaginative concepts with words

Shape them into belief a step ahead of fantasy. 

But I need you to trust my every word

Overdose on dream full addictions

Relapsing on freedom of mind replacing reality.

CRAZY IN LOVE

CRAZY IN LOVE

"Love whomever it is you love as if you are crazy" 

And if you one day go crazy

I will try my best to keep you sane.

Nothing will change, I promise

I will try my best to keep it all the same.

SUICIDE

SUICIDAL 

:: Dedicated to a GOOD friend of mine Fya Guru R.I.P ::

"we all have a breaking point, we just don't know when."

Hey, can you see me?

Listen to me cry behind this wall.

Find me

I dare you to catch me, if you can.

You know I can fly right?

I never really tried.

But when no one else is looking 

Thats when I will take a fall.

We tend to fall behind ignorant walls trapping those that need us most on the other side. But at times we seem to be the ones wishing that they would break down the personal walls we build to save us from ourselves. - Aristo Dos Santos :: CuPid Poetry

My BEST friend helps my world go round, she is the only one that seems to remain put next to me when no one chooses to be around. And so, I dedicate this piece to her with all my heart. I love you, and every time I see or hear you cry my heart seems to part. I'm no Super Hero, but I try my best to be right next to you.

Unsung Hero

We wear no capes

Nor are we super

We just do what's needed.

We hero with heart

Flesh against bone

Grazing all that's hard

We stand tall, never seated.

Please,

Give us no medal

Ordinary is our cause

Protected by he, God

All the strength we've 

ever needed.

BEAUTIFUL LUST

Captive

I war over freedom 

Liberate me I cry 

Trapped in your mind

Your lust, my prison.

MY AFRICAN WAR PT. 2

BELLS OF CHANGE

"Please WATCH the videos"

"I'm fighting reality, trying to PEACE it together from war"

They are coming for us

My soul flinches to the sound of the gun

We all scatter and hide as we run 

While tanks roll deep in our streets

 Shooting our mothers down. 

Kingdoms of Free-DOOM

One sided presidential elections

Lust to be KINGS with imaginative crowns

Broken empires of greed 

where the buried innocent forces the ground to bleed.

What did they EXPECT?

What is of us who remain at the bottom?

Once more we fight,

Darkened by the shadow of poverty we

rumble the streets for freedom's light.

And so, we take a stand

We don't know what change tomorrow

will bring

But we will continue to march through

days and nights just so we can hear the

bells of change ring.

I write this note with all Africans that desire change in mind, especially those in my nation of ANGOLA.

DEAR AFRICAN PRESIDENTS, 

PLEASE CARE FOR US ALL WHEN WE MOST NEED YOU, ALWAYS. WE HAVE SUFFERED ENOUGH IN THE HANDS OF OUR COLONIAL PREDECESSORS, SO WHY MUST WE HARM OURSELVES WITH LOADED HANDS ARMED WITH AK47'S, ROCKET LAUNCHERS AND MASSIVE TANKS. WE AS THE PEOPLE HAVE HAD ENOUGH AND THE HARDSHIP OF LIFE HAS LED US INTO A STATE OF NIRVANA. PLEASE LET THERE BE PEACE IN YOUR HEART, SHARE WITH US ITS SEEDS JUST SO WE CAN ALL SHARE ITS PEACEFUL FRUIT. WE HAVE PROVEN IN THE PAST THAT IN WAR WE FIND NO ANSWER, JUST FIGURES ADDING UP THE COUNT TO AN UNCONTROLLED GENOCIDE. I PLEAD WITH ALL MY HEART AS WE PLEAD YOU WITH ALL THE SOULS WE CAN STILL SAVE.....

SINCERELY YOURS,

"It takes a village to raise a child, and it takes that village to unite for change"

by: Aristo Dos Santos

We fight

War over divine principles

With Gods on both sides

Titans clash, violently we fight. 

Peace, at last.

Death rests quietly. Quite fields silent 

While Gods listen sitting on thrones high

Souls climb heavenly stained as violent.

A FLOWER FOR: YOU

A FLOWER FOR YOU

:: Dedicated to: Tohana ::

For you,

I searched for the seed of 

CuPid. Searched for luck,

Trying to find a clover.

Lost within a sea of lovers

I gave up without a chance.

But in my heart, a garden

For you, I found a flower.

THE WAY SHE: MAKES ME SMILE

SHE MAKES ME SMILE

Tracing lips with my eyes

Finding clues to a smile

Hidden hints of a smirk

The element of surprise

I find no reasoning, 

Just existance 

Pressing my head around it

When she calls,

She makes me smile from

a distance.

I dedicate this post to my BEST friend that has always been there for me. Now that she deeply needs a friend the most, I am trying my best to keep myself as close as possible.

HER: THE BEAUTIFUL SLEEPER

BEAUTIFUL SLEEPER

"Don't get me wrong I hope to wake up someday"

But if there be no peace lullaby me into deep sleep

And let there be no Prince with magical lips.

Smothering me awake into a realm full of torments

In a world without tranquility or its glimpse.
