Wonder What


You have your goals and priorities..
and sometimes I'm curious as to
where all of this leaves you and me...
At times I get mixed messages
that leave me wondering how far
we'll get with this.
If only you could understand
how much I want to be your man../

I wonder what it takes for me to
get next to you...
because lately I seem to be the
one that's vexed by you..
Iwonder what it takes for me
to-
get through to you..
girl just tell me how much more do I
have to do for you?/

You go on and on about all of the places
that you plan to go.."
you tell me that you need a man is willing to work with you
,who's not on your arms just for show..
"oh really?"
It's just that you never appear to be having any fun
girl, sometimes I wonder if you need anybody or anyone?/

/All work and no play
made jane a very dull girl last night and today..
Maybe if jane could just take off a day..
to do something like make love until her toes curled..
maybe she'd look at things in a different way.../

  1. Excuse me Keith, this looks like a bad time. I see you and that woman have a few thangs to talk about, but if no one told you...

    Did you hear that? Listen, it's the sound of the fat lady walking toward the stage. The mike is in her hands. *lol*

  2. Seem like there is no fun with Dick and Jane. I mean that in so many literary ways.

    You know I'm a Yankee fan, but I have full confidence in their ability to lose three in a row.

  20. Ok...this should be an R & B song, and I can just imagine Neeyo singing the lyrics, then LiL Wayne will bust in with his rap verse, calling the woman all types of B's and ho's and telling her if she ain't got time, then neither does he...LOLOLOL! Good poem/song. Not sure which one it is, but I like it...I really like it. Keith, all the time we were coworkers, I never knew you were so creative!
