The Story of A Gentlemen's Feelings: 
YOU READ THE TRUTH TODAY (part1)
By Na'shon Kemp
At night when i unfold my dreams 
like a woven quilt of memories 
I look up to the sky and wonder why 
Everybody has somebody except for me
Oh well I'll lay here in my king sized bed alone 
And let these dreams be my queen 
For only heaven knows the way 
my mind from this lonely torture is being ripped apart
 despite how my outside may seem
 
Every one asking me whose my girlfriend 
do I have a girlfriend 
These 10 inch nails are constantly 
being hammered deeper into my brain 
slowly  penetrating my thought stream
It seems as if these people only live 
to help drive me insane
 
Girls play games with my mind all the time 
then banish me to a realm of the less sublime
 
I write my lines to try to escape from these lies
But my mind is trapped in this realm full of them
They friend me and get close but as I fall for them 
they cut  the chute
yet in my mind I can't 
Get rid of them
 
Now I'm hopeless lifeless 
Falling from heaven away from another angel 
Time to try another angle and go for some roots 
Instead of aiming high I'll aim low and dig my way to hell
Live my life in a low leveled booth 
 
This way I can sell my soul for happiness 
and my riches for a loyal queen 
My seeds for some kisses 
And my branches for some open love 
After all I'm just looking for 
some kisses and a hug as well as 
A companion in which to love
 
Would've went to hell and back for you repeatedly 

Literally not figuratively

Just to hold you again 
But this new guy would got to hell 
and find another and not come back for you

Literally not figuratively

Wouldn't call you again

This is deep, real and I can picture and feel the imagery from the way you write. Keep writting and I wil go read Part 2 now....

Line that stood out:

"This way I can sell my soul for happiness 

and my riches for a loyal queen 

My seeds for some kisses 

And my branches for some open love 

After all I'm just looking for 

some kisses and a hug as well as 

A companion in which to love."
 
Suggestion: Re-read your work.
