You tell your friends
you are a gangster, a thug
at the same time you tell me
you are a gentleman, an angel
a young girl like me loved you
in front of me you were kindhearted
gentle like a feathers touch
affectionate
but on the streets
you stole
bullied
fought
lied
you are in the streets
like it's your home
you don't belong to the streets
all the street does to you
is to bring you trouble
mischief
why do you keep getting in trouble?
You wake up with drama
having nightmares about death
asking, telling, whispering to yourself
that death is coming
closer and closer
you are haunted about death
but you are scared to show your weakness
you want to cry out your feelings
but you tell yourself
men dont cry
when you see me
through your eyes
you fantasize about you and me
whispering in my ear
that we will live in paradise
you still smile
but I see sadness in your eyes
but you will always seem to tell me
that you were powerful
when I met you
I met you on the streets
you hollered at me
because I was attractive
and may be I thought
I would give you my body
then you found out
I was something special
my friends would tell me
you would end up in jail
locked up
lonely
heartless
I would cry at night
because I loved you
even though I was young
I cried because I believed
what people said
your friends would say
to stay out of my life
I wasnwans good enough
you knew this isnâ?sinthe right way to live
you are hiding
running away from the police
I cant say I am in love with a thug
I am in love with the angel I know
my parents would scream
forbid me to love
at such a young age
my heart was too small
my heart was too fragile they said
you would risk your life
for such foolish things
you melted into my shadow
and you went through every struggle
I went through
strangers
people remember you as
a gangster
who was a bad example
to young kids
what do I remember you as?
As my love
as my angel
as my shadow
as my tear drop
as part of my heart
as my prayer
as my dream
as my life
most of all my love
