MY SCHOOL YEARS
G. Stokes
I sit down on a playground thinking how
I started elementary school 14 years ago. From the first day of elementary school, seeing my name on the door of my classroom.
My first day to Ruffner Middle on a packed bus with 60 plus kids on it. Coming straight home to sleep away my headache because
of the bells ringing. Man high school life was fun also. Dates, proms and just haning out period. As I look back I cant believe
that school came and now its gone. When you look back you cant believe its gone. But while youre doing the time it seems forever.
Im ready for life and everything it has in store for me. For I made it 19 years I can make it further.
-----------------------------------------------
MY SCHOOL
YEARS is basically me looking back on my grade years. And a few unforgettable things that happened too. CLASSIC.
-----------------------------------------------
ABOUT THE WORLD
G. Stokes
I wonder about a lot of stuff. If I could
live in somebody elses shoes for a day. From stupid things like which came first the egg or the chicken. On to deep thinking
like who created God himself. Are we all in one big daydream of a person thats larger than life. Who knows, even great professors
dont even know.
-----------------------------------------------
ABOUT THE
WORLD is about me just asking myself questions about the world.
-----------------------------------------------
TAKE LIFE CAREFULLY
G. Stokes
Life is priceless and whoever says differently
is wrong. Moments in your life makes you smile and sometimes cry. Bless him all the time, not just the times where you need
someone to talk to or in a need of a quick miricle. For life is priceless you should hold your life with two hands. Yeah no
doubt you should live life to the fullest just do it carefully.
-----------------------------------------------
TAKE LIFE
CAREFULLY is telling you, while youre out there
having fun, dont forget to take life carefully.
-----------------------------------------------
WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR ME
G. Stokes
For its two years and Im out of school,
doing what? Nothing you can say. Well I guess you can say Im in the planning and writing mode. Maybe next year will be my
year for it will feel like Im really doing something. Sometimes I dont know having to much fun and not enough work is being
done. Like only 10% is towards work and 90% is going to having fun. Switch it around and my dream would come true faster.
For many say I should do poetry clubs. Well theres two hold backs. For one is Im only turning 20 while some of the clubs you
have to be 21. And also, I want someone from my camp there with me, I dont wanna be the only bird in a room filed with cats.
We will see what the future holds for me.
-----------------------------------------------
WHAT THE
FUTURE HOLDS FOR ME to sum it up, its about me. and things that are holding
me back from my dreams.
-----------------------------------------------
BESIDES ME
G. Stokes
Everytime I turn around youre right there
beside me like another arm. No matter how much wrong I do, youre still there to support me in everything I do. We kiss, have
initmite moments and we share thoughts. Jennifer Lopez and Ben Afflick kinda reminds me of us. There side-by-side, through
thick and thin. I would like to say thank you. Remember G & G.
-----------------------------------------------
BESIDES
ME its about my ex-girlfriend and no matter what wrong I did she would still stand by me. CLASSIC.
-----------------------------------------------
PAINTINGS WORTH THOUSANDS OF
WORDS
G. Stokes
My style holds something that most poets
dont even have and thats clarity. My style gets straight to the point without using added words. I have the right ingredients
to make a cake, while other are leaving out the egg. Without the egg youre making some unknown shit. Im a pen with ink ready
to write and write till Im out and once Im out, Ill be writing in invisible ink that only I can see. If I can bring two things
with me to the afterlife it would have to be a pen and a endless book of paper. Pictures are worth a thousands wordsI have
pictures in my mind that are more priceless then the Mona Lisa painting. Enough said.
-----------------------------------------------
PAINT WORTH
THOUSANDS OF WORDS I took the art saying and put
it to my sense. Like I have tons of paintings in my
head so that means I have priceless thoughts.
-----------------------------------------------
NERVOUS
G. Stokes
There she is looking cute, there she is
looking fly. I wanna say something to her like how she caught my eye, but Im way to shy. Maybe I should write her a note and
use sweet words so she will blush. I can say, how I want to take her off this island and cruise the exotic seas on a boat.
Where did she go, oh I shouldve known somebody that fine already had someone to call baby.
-----------------------------------------------
NERVOUS
is about a boy who wants to approach this girl, but
he keeps finding reasons not to approach herreminds
me of me.
-----------------------------------------------
DONT HAVE TO GO HOME
G. Stokes
I hear that your man has been acting up
lately, I just hope he gets his game tight and start to make it right. For I have feelings for you, but you dont know cause
I keep it away from you like a secret. I dont wanna break up a relationship, so I just sit back relax and play it cool. Jellybean
you can tell me anything, I want to be the person you run to when you want to express your feelings. When youre up late at
night you can come over, because you dont have to go home tonight, you can stay the night here with me. I can make you feel
good inside, so come sit right by my side. Baby,baby, baby.
-----------------------------------------------
DONT HAVE
TO GO HOME this is my version of the Monica & DMX song. Im telling my friend that she doesnt have to go home tonight to her man, she can chill with me and we can talk about us.
-----------------------------------------------
CONVERSATIONS WITH MYSELF
G. Stokes
Change; doing something different then usual. That
what I have been going through. Mood swings Im catching, relationships Im ditching. Walking around with a head hotter then
the sun on my shoulders, not knowing what to say when people ask whats the matter with me. I just engore them and mean mug
them, but while in this time of frame, I had conversations with myself trying to find out whats the problem. My mind is getting
deeper and deeper, while my thoughts are getting thicker and thicker. Backup emotions like ripping down the hingings. Waiting
to get into peoples heads. And make them have conversations with themselves. Let your mind get deeper and get rid of your
worldly things. Conversations with myself, Im having conversations with myself.
-----------------------------------------------
CONVERSATIONS
WITH MYSELF there wasnt any plans to do this one. I thought
it would be cool to have a poem called the books name. This is the last one I wrote. I was feeling kinds ify ify at the time. so I guess you can say its basically me
talking to myself and all the
problems that I have been having. CLASSIC.
