Put Your Pride Aside
jeffrey conyers Nov 2024
Listen to some, you just have to laugh.
Least, at the things they say out loud.
I can't work fast food, and they are unemployed.
But dream of things they like or want.

Well, put your pride aside.
And focus upon your goal.
Some work for less to achieve the best.

I can't do this or that because it's beneath me.
Remember it's a part of things folks like to say.

Well, put your pride aside something simply takes effort and time.

Worry not many top executives say the same thing.
That they worthy of so much more after losing that clout of respect.

But you must put in hard work to get and have.
And that's just the way it is.

Women Love Your Man
jeffrey conyers Nov 2024
Women, love your man.
Yes, love your man without any regrets.
Remember, yes remember all those good memories he brings to you.

Let him know he special to you.
Make him recognize like he does why he love you.
Women, love your man.
All because he is so special to you.

So, some say you're a lovesick fool.
But more likely they rather be in your shoes.
Or been hurt unlike you.
Women love your man any way you decide too.

Racism
jeffrey conyers Nov 2024
Don't let your racism hinder your success?
Because most likely you will ruin your success.
Because you better recognize your past.

Don't put on a front until you expose.
Racism not fading away, it's forever because it's the truth.
Read the scriptures signs of your living proof.

Don't be that ****.
Don't be that fool.
Don't let racism be the worst thing talked about you.

I'm just telling you.

Did I Speak Me
jeffrey conyers Nov 2024
You read it.
But did I say that.
You heard it.
But did I speak it.
Or like many you're going by innuendoes.

If in person?
Or around me than you can speak upon me.
Because you have a personal perspective.
Forget those stories reported by TMZ.
Just ask me.

I might tell it.
Then again, I might not.
Cause even the truth deserves to be kept by me.

No Need To Complain
jeffrey conyers Nov 2024
Cry not, you approved it.
If a foreign attack us?
You approved it.
No need to complain.

If a man attacks your daughter?
Out of rage or respect.
You approved it.
Cry not later about justice.

A felon, you elected.
Cry not when someone with less notoriety do it.
You signed off on him excelling through it.

Laws on the books for everyone.
So, when he flies to another countries.
Don't go trying to block regular folks from doing it.

Just remember, no need to complain.
We never were great, and he can't make it great again.
Not when crooks, bigots and fools, are your best friends.

It Was What It Was
jeffrey conyers Nov 2024
It was what it was?
When it was?
And I don't offer no apology.


It happens when it did.
When it did?
Remember I am an adult.
No longer a up and coming kid.

What lost?
Doesn't need to be regained.
Lou Rawls stated love is a hurting thing.

Without you around I now feel totally sane.

Black Royalty
jeffrey conyers Nov 2024
Black royalty, they excel.
Sure, a few fail but no other race excel.
With less, many have accomplished more.

Not those with inheritance.
And no reason for anyone to be jealous.
But search that without many excel.

Something about this culture.
Why down through the years they accomplish things that stands out in this future.

Count, Prince, Queen, Duke and Princess.
Many has used this phase to go forth.
But black royalty is so much more.

Which is why?
Many are so jealous of us.
Why?
Black royalty excels.

Eyes of A Man
jeffrey conyers Nov 2024
The beauty of you is noticed by the eyes of a man.
They notice your eyes.
Oh, yes, they do.

They notice your lips and imagine them kissing him.
Oh, yes, it's true.
Remember, this lies in the truth of eyes of a man.

Yes, some admiration might be strictly physical.
Be not upset because these eyes of a man.
They notice your chest.
Yes, the size of your *******.

Again, be not upset.
They notice your feet and the beauty of your hands.
And probably a lot more.

A woman to a man like looking at a map to explore.

Blinded
jeffrey conyers Nov 2024
You went away happy supposedly.
Sming back at me as you leave.
Explaining, you found another to make you happy.

Then suddenly, you were blinded to truth.
Your new suitor was just using you.
After his time with you.
You woke up to see he has left you.

On my way I went creating a new path.
Just hear from a few that you wanted to renew what we had.
Oh no.
Oh no.
I have no time to be sad.
But I was blinded when I open the door.
Just to hear you proclaiming to forgive you, my love.

All this pressure from friends coming down upon me.
They truly behind you being the one to make me so happy.
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
The trouble that came to Emmett Till over a white convicted him.
Allegations and accusation based on the word of a white female.
Who decades later took it all back?

But decades earlier Jesse Washington faced the same theme of allegations and accusations that led to his death.
And at the hands of bigots.

Nothing shocking or surprising to many.
Obvious to the perpetrators it shouldn't be.
Not to the race the creator of racial injustice the most.

Hangings, shootings, courts injustices by white juries.
Without bravery to stand firm against their own.

Many very aware why that group trying to ban and eliminate history.
The image doesn't paint them to well through the decades.
And whites with kindness in their hearts got lynched too.

Mary Turner lynched, hard for fools to see truth when told.
Hatred is all many of they know until exposed.

But if this was all on the other shoe?
They be seeking peace faster than putting on your shoes.

In all these attacks a great majority of them dealt with guns.
The same ones crying about that infamous amendment they know so well.

For without them many aren't so brave.
If confronted many are quiet or quickly to run away.
Which leads to many daily to pray.

And these issues just apart of America past decades.
Where allegations and accusations created so much pain.
Wakeup before love fades away.

Abortion Versus Vasectomy
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Everyone wants certain rights.
But loves to control other rights.
Especially if a woman decision to decide is at the center of it.

Long been known men loves to control.
We use conception of child upon women decision.
But cries death quickly around that choice.
Overlooking the death penalty requires taking a life.

And that soul loses all kinds of deciding rights.

Now, here come the man seeking vasectomy.
Ask them?
Except for the soul seeking them.
Many men quickly cry foul.
Bluntly states they not getting it.

Now, why they have that choice without political involvement?
Nothing, no kinds of argument.
And you look around nothing but baby makers with different kinds of lovers.

We make choices to control depending upon the perspectives of a few.
And pushed highly by of all places, the church.
Even, in scriptures those "just" men weren't perfect.

Speak Up, Speak Out
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Some folks are brainless.
Won't say dumb.
Not going that far.

To tell athletes to shut up and just play the game.
Like telling a **** victim to shut up and be quiet.
Others don't want to hear your cry.

Like telling unions to quit complaining for raises.
And accept what's giving?
Even, if you gave up some agreements to help the company out.

Guarantee you those high price executives didn't.

Some must speak up and speak out.
Especially if injustice is involved.

If you a go along robot?
You stay silent.
And face the conflicts until you feel the need to speak.
Oct 2024 · 97
If You Seeking
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
From Genesis until now, things have changed.
Even God didn't want things to remain the same.
Who does?
It's the people,
If you seeking days of old?
It's over.
That's just the way it is.

If you're seeking days of the fifties?
It's over.
You know those days of segregation and discrimination.
Where just profit more off of skin tone?
Why others in assigned roles.

If you seeking days of old?
Where one race controlled the narrative of hate?
It's over.
Now, you are seeing those that you abused.
Have the tools to challenge you too.

Ask yourself?
Who has the most hate?
Many avoid that debate.

If you seeking days of old?
Ask yourself this?
Are you still that youth lost in knowing nothing?
Or a grown adult that has learned something.

This world has revolved since the beginning.
It's only the ministers crying about it ending.
Then many just expressing their views.

Remember, they didn't create this world.
And only the creator has plans to see us changed.

Am I The Only One
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
I see good in you.
I wish the best for you.
Am I the only one.

We all have that little of wickedness,
Some of us just won't confess it.
And I don't blame you.

Except, I see love as the greatest creation in existence.
Am I the only one.

It doesn't fail us.
Never have, never will.
Some of us love creating problems and conflicts.
This what I see?
Am I the only one.

What giving to cherish?
Should just be adored more.
This what I believe?
Am I the only one.

To see joyfulness in love.

Relaxin'
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
We relaxin' on a Sunday just you and I enjoying the day.
There's nothing better than being together.

We relaxin' without a care in the world.
We have blocked out friends and various kins.
Just lovin' one another like when we first beginned.

With the strength of the power above in our life.
Just guidin' us being a part of our lives.
While we relaxin'

With the radiance of sun in the day shinin' upon our skins.
Or the wonderful glow radiatin' at night.
We are feelin' the emotion of the love within us.

We just relaxin'
Yes, just relaxin'

I'm Just Saying
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Win, that's what I do.
When it's possible to accomplish.
Just not on those days of wind.

Then I must plan better.
Because being thin gets be blown around.
I'm just saying.

Nothing Needs To Be Said
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
I look at you.
You look at me.
Eyes says it all.
Nothing needs to be said.

I hold your hand.
You hold my hand.
Our touch holds the key.
Nothing needs to be said.
We both get the message.

Our lips meet.
And the feelings send signals.
Yes, we both re ready to mingle.
And again, nothing needs to be said.

Especially, when the subject to be wicked and bad.
Turn out the lights.
Baby comes close.
Or simply like Teddy P stated, close the door.
Oct 2024 · 55
Fear of Halloween
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Why?
Why, we fear this coming event?
Maybe, it's the leaders of church and viewpoints.

They will feature videos and personal opinions from an adult perspective.
About witch crafts, witches and warlocks.

But to a child all they know is candy, and treats.
Similar to themes preached around Christmas when you hear folks' gripes about reason for the seasons.

To a child, it's all about gifts and toys.
And the giving of gifts from the heart of love.

Mainly inn church surrounding this day.
It's about fear.
Parents, siblings escorting siblings of child are great protectors.

We, all aware there are wicked folks in society.
Just like sinners seated in the pew.

WHO SCARED OF WHO?
Oct 2024 · 90
Who Am I
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Who am I?
Someone, who loves you?
Who am I?
That guy that adores you from afar?
The one that sworn you, his heart.

It's not about my legal government name.
Words that usually sounds insane to even say.
Just because many refuses to accept truth.

We all know somewhere lies total prove.
To, who am I?
Am it's with you, my love, my heart, my soul.

When Love Was Real
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Remember, when without love was true.
Long before this you must have to receive it.
Now, from many females it's about wealth and have.
Not about love, sharing and caring.

I just remember, when love was real.
Long before faking loving became a skill.
Oh, sure romantic manipulation is truly old.

Where this you got to give to get tricks control your mind, body and soul.
The lust for money has ruin many relationships.

Where many men without?
And lost the woman they love because of her thirst.
And when the grass no longer greener?
Ashe suddenly wakes up.

I just remember when love was real.
Well, it still is.
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Greater.
Greater, so much greater than the man he was.
I love you more.
More than he ever did you.

I see jealousy whenever he looks at me.
Even he knows.
Even he is aware.
I'm greater than the man he was.
But that's how it is.

When other see the one, they lost doing well.
They start thinking about how thing was.
And it's nothing new to us.

Because he is aware I'm greater than the man he was.
In giving.
In loving.
In caring.
In sharing.
In making you happier than you ever was.
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
It goes searching for comfort just like all of you.
Hoping to be accepted with comfort and warmth.
If love seeking a place to be?
Come here, bring your sincerity here to me.

If love seeking happiness and joy?
A place to call home forever.
Come here, bring your true worth to me.
I'll welcome it.

Something so powerful be in the weakest of hearts.
So selfish, so uncaring until it departs.

So, if love seeking to be held to the highest degree.
Just stop here.
I'll be waiting.
Oct 2024 · 65
Others Love To Speak
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Speak, others love too.
Stand firm, on matters of importance.
Especially, when others speak truth of allegations.
Fight to save your reputation.

Least, when other speaks.

Truth and Reality
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Now, you're in the history books.
Looking stupid as before.

All because of a political loss.

And your supporters just as dumb.
All because they could accept truth and reality.

Some facts just hard to explain.
When true and reality washes fraud away?

So how are you loyal Americans?
When you destroy America's capital?
And nobody's amazed that you trying to toss others to blame.

But of all the dumbness under him, we have seen.
Many of us wish he pack up and just leave.
Oct 2024 · 57
Soon
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Soon, very soon.
Love will rule.

Soon, too soon.
I eventually will be with you.

But be patient as I get to know you.

Like this wonderful world, we live within.
After love creation, we find it will never end.
So let start out as friends.

Cause soon, very soon.
We will be one.
We will share the love.

Just wait.
Love will grow within time.

Soon, very soon.

Love Is...
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Love, this powerful feeling will never be eradicated.

Now, wait! Shocked, surprised, and amazed, are those within the world.

But why be?
We have seen thugs, crooks, thieves operate with violence before.

Bit wait!
We all seen this same pigmentation group back down from a challenge too.
That old saying of truth "mama" didn't raise no fools.

When the black militias in Georgia came to town?
We saw what group hiding?

Love is a wonderful joy to forever explore.

The privileged squad only acts out because they were very aware THEIR VERY OWN intimidated to halt them.

Love is the basis of living.
So is forgiving.

Exact, why?

Afraid
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Who's afraid of hell?
You should be.
Those that embrace it.
Soon, will regret it.

Who afraid of God?
You should be.
The Almighty has the strength to end many things.

God, stated, he would destroy the world by fire.
Obviously, he could use water to carry that plan out.

Who afraid of death?
You should be.
Except, it can't be helped.

For there is a time for everything.

Who afraid of love?

I hope no one.

Talking To My Heart
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
God, talking to my heart.
Pointing out my blessings.
God talking to my heart.
Advising me of my treasure.

Tears come to my eyes.
Whenever you are mention?
And through all my evil ways.
You the object of my intention.

God talking to my heart.
On a daily basis.
God talking to my heart.
More than you can imagine.

I just know God is talking to me.

And I'm listening.
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
I am that heartbreak you left behind.
Now you want to apologize.

I am that heartache you went and left.
And now you trying to come back.
But now you see you never really hurt me.

Yes, now you know my life just went on.
Not one hurt by hearing a sad love song.

No mending a broken heart or healing one that been torn apart.

Although I'm the heartbreak you left behind a few days ago.
Now you trying to save face.
Now that another has taken your place.

Place a new smile upon my face and everything we share has been replaced.

Sometimes things are for the better.

Proud of My Son
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
He isn't perfect.
Except in my eyes, he is respectful.
I'm proud of my son for the young he has become.

Sure, he has been taught right from wrong.
Even when to stand his ground?
Stand up to the truth than to accept blame.

I'm proud of my son.
Smart and talented in his very own way.

Brings tears to my eyes to say with honor.
He so far stayed away from gangs and crime.
Proud to state  I love you forever.

Of course, I'm not the only one proud of his son.
But in a world where many leaving this earth too soon?

No Love
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
There is no love within you.
None, whatsoever?
You say there is.
But where?
I don't see it.
The world won't see it.

Cause there is no love within you.
Because hatred controls you.
When it shouldn't at all?

But, then again?

Amazing, You Are
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Amazing, you are God.
In my eyes, my soul and heart.

Amazing, you are God.
From me, you will never depart.

Perfect, we on earth might not be.
But to us seeking you, you are everything.

Because amazing, you are God.
In my eyes, my soul, and my heart.

No one comes close to you.
Or can measure up to impersonating you.

You're one of a kind.
You are so divine.
For me this I truly recognize and acknowledge you too.

Cause amazing, you are God.
Yes, amazing, you are God.

Jesus Appreciation Day
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Some get it.
Some feel it.
Even comprehend the message.

Jesus appreciation day.
We cherish it.
Even worship it daily.

No funds to raise.
No invited guests to offer praise.
Because freely, we offer them.

It's Jesus' appreciation day.
Then on this earth, many see it totally different about their flock leader.

And been stern-to.

And, yes, I'm one of the best tools

I am called the belt.
When used in disciplinary?
I am one weapon they reach for help.

State Your Case
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Is it my business?
To be in your business.
Let alone in your life governing your home.

So Sarah loves Lisa, why must I state what's against the scriptures?
When I look at them?
I simply see a happy picture.

So Bob loves Jim, is it my business to be in their business?

Oh, the good shepherd leading the flock attacks their lifestyle.
But doesn't address the cheater minister for his sin.

If folks are happy with any way they chose?
Then why I am playing the role of dictating to whom?
Cause truth?
Would we want others trying to run our homes?

Sin is here.
Sin is there.
But to decide anyone's lifestyle of sin

And he appreciates too.

She loves her man to the point of being his defender.
His supporters.
Besides being proclaim his lover.

When others ask what is a strong woman?
He points to her.

He loves her daily.
She one hell of a woman.
She is one hell of a lady.

Without her he aware he might not be nothing.

There is no begging.

There is no weak link between them.

Held Hostage
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
You there for the word.
For truth and wisdom of growth.
But you're held hostage for their views.

Like you can't hold one of your own.
All because the minister or ministers think you're controlled.
They preach it's against God's law.

You are just a hostage according to them.
Trying to brain wash you into agreeing with them.
Sometimes they manipulate, all on one accord.

See no evil, speak no evil goes out the door.
Especially if you're the president supporting laws upon the books.
They blame this and that upon him.

But Congress controls mainly what goes through.
Question opinions of those trying to preach and control.
Be willing to disagree at the appropriate time.

All life requires, is you to open your eyes.
Freedom to choose should stay alive.
Even a held hostage seeks freedom, to have an open mind.

To Thee

Thou shalt never love another.
Famous words of a romantic song.

To thee, I give you, my heart.
To thee, I give you, my love.
It be filled with warmth and tenderness.
Leave an impression that I will miss you so much.

To thee, you my first thought each day.
And I won't have it any other way.
Which why I love you every second, minute, hour of the day.

Can't Take It Anymore
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
I gave you everything of me I could.
And to this day it's still no good.
I just can't give you anymore.

I went the distance of love and affection.
Stay by your side for protection.
Still, you felt no satisfaction.
So, what are you truly after?

Cause it's not love.
You can't make me believe it was.
I just know I can't give you anymore.

They say love built on understanding of one another needs.
But concerning you it's a whole different thing.
And now, when I'm ready to leave.
You say you are willing to change.

I don't believe it.
I don't even see it.
I just know I can't take it anymore.
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Don't believe, what you hear.
Oh, no-don't you believe what you read.
Unless I tell you, most will be rumors ad allegations.
Just to gather attention.

Ask yourself?
Do you know the real story?
Or going by something someone told you.
And many just attention seekers.

Sure, there is no guarantee I tell you everything.
Because in truth I just might be at blame.
So, unless I honestly tell you, you only going by rumors and allegations.

So, ask yourself?
Truly ask yourself.
Do you know the real story?
Especially if it concerns me.

Just put yourself in my shoes.
Would you accept someone talking lies about you?

Yes, somethings should be told.
Then some secrets never, never at all.

You love.
Who makes my life shines?
You love.
You're wonderful.
You're beautiful.

Who put my mind at ease?
You love.
Who warms me with hugs.
You love.

Just your embrace drives all worries away.
And the look within your eyes of confidence makes this love we share so special.

You love has the power.
To command my soul and spirit because your love already has my mind.

Not too many
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Not too many can say I don't love you a certain way.
Then I ever loved another.
But you a special kind of lover.

And not too many can say I treat you a certain way.
But you special in many ways.
Then any other I have known.

And my life has changed in so many ways.
Just seeing you smile lighten up my days.
And I am only telling you just what needed at the right time?

So, it's true not too many can say I don't love you.
It's in my eyes.
It's in my smile.
It's in my speech.

Welcome To America
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
Still proud.
Still great even among wars and mistakes.
Welcome to America.

Dreams come true if you apply yourself.
A country always willing to help.
Maybe a little too much.
Still, welcome to America.

You'll find cultural conflicts.
And see new immigrants bringing their problems here too.
Except, our soldiers not your country patrol troops.

Where many foreigners on vistas think we are?
Heck, we have inner problems too to solve.
Folks forget seeking peace isn't so hard.

Then you have ruthless men that will start hatred all over again.

Still, welcome to America.
Turn all your problems over to God.

Different Than You
jeffrey conyers Oct 2024
I can honestly say she loves me.
Say it without a single doubt.
Because she came to me when I wasn't wealthy.

Unlike many athletes and celebrities that uses their wealth
Just to pull a woman of substance.
Even when there's no love at all.

I can say to many my lady different than you.
She rare with great qualities.
Truly loves me with or without.

If I could build a world around anyone.
It would be her.
All because she's different than you.

So, whatever I am blessed with?
It's her for the asking.
Because she is my treasure forever and forever.

All because she is different than you.

Every man needs one.
Everyone desires one.
Least, if the upfront and honest about love.
