Live Love - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

love for some is just a word/but for others like me it's a verb/a doing word/an action/a word that's utterly perfection/can't be defiled/no traces of lies/no place for compromise/it's time to open up some eyes/give them a surprise/a rude awakening/an unexpected feeling at times that are hard to express/but i must confess/i'm awake/no more time for sleeping/learned by my mistakes/love a pure emotion i'm seeking/you must be thinking i'm dreaming/no such thing that i believe in/but i'm telling you now/love is alive even when hearts stop beating/if you know what i'm talking about/then start living/live love

don't you wanna/don't you wanna start doing/doing what's right/starting right now/live love/start with love and start living life without compromise/live love

i'm 28 years old/going through mix emotions/falling easily and getting up quickly/not giving love a fighting chance/looking for imperfections to get me off this rollercoaster ride that got my heart captured/she just another girl i like and falling in love/but this time around i'm sticking around/sticking it out/giving it my attention and looking for the potential of becoming more than just boy meets girl/giving love a poetic heartbeat/moving our feets/walking towards each other/talking with more than lips/actioning how i feel and keeping it real/i'm aware it might not be easy/but anything worth fighting for is worth sticking around for/amour/love

don't you wanna/don't you wanna start doing/doing what's right/starting right now/live love/start with love and start living life without compromise/live love

now as always got to give glory to the one and only/the one that's love in itself/GOD/he created us to love/so who are we to not live love/he showed us what's love is all about/didn't compromise/didn't think twice/didn't look at our imperfections and decided otherwise/so thank you GOD for 1st Corinthians 13 love/and more so for John 3 verse 16 love/on a cross died for sinners that don't deserve your love/defeated death to give us eternal life/what love/people that rejected you/crucified you/denied you/didn't believe in you/wants nothing to do with you/still giving your life/what love/help me to walk in your footsteps and love unconditionally/by your example i want to live love

Broken Arrows - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

Many mirrors in one room

All the faces

Pictured places

Towards one man's doom

I had assumed

She must've had perfume

For him to be lured

Causing him to abjure

Bringing me back straight to the core

Waiting to settle the score

Investing your money at Wall Street

Is looking for your defeat

Now you want me to be discreet

Wanting me to make ends meat

You try to keep it real

Pushing away what you feel

Her heart you want to steal

Thinking you can break steal

Another Arrow Broken

U want fame

Decided to join the game

Everything went to your brain

And you think you got a lot to gain

Looking at you in a picture frame

Leaving behind your stain

And no, it aint a joke

Making fun at others heavy yoke

Another Arrow Broken

Running away to the States

Seeking open gates

Stunned and fascinate

By the one whom you underestimate

Surprisingly she yawn

As you inject your spawn

Making her laugh because you had generate

But couldn't separate

The precious

From her ferocious

Another Arrow Broken

Because of your greed

You left your people in need

Walking bare feet

And many empty stomachs to feed

Fighting to stop a dispute

Getting you forever substitute

Your sister the prostitute

Now forever mute

Another Arrow Broken

She is Superfine

Sorry, but she's mine

I heard you are doing time

And it's not even your crime

Your wife Tarren

Doctor said she's Barren

Seized and teased

And couldn't be pleased

Situated on the tower

Is your flower

She's turning sour

By the hour

Another Arrow Broken

Owning your own federation

From generation to generation

Putting in to consideration

All the consolation

For all the people small and tall

Who refuse to fall

And now due to your sudden end

Your siblings had to defend

The family name

But it won't be the same

For tomorrow

And all the sorrow

And endless struggle

Many things to juggle

Your relatives, more determine

To stop the company's famine

Your brother got a long-distance call

But didn't seemed bothered at all

Until he got mail

And suddenly he started to wail

Another Arrow Broken

A Woman's Worth - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

A woman's worth isn't measured by her attributes
Nor by what one can gain from her
She's beautiful in her own right
Gorgeous in her own sight
And to those who can truly see her for her
For the majority of mankind
Physical appearance is a blindfold
Not allowing one to see the beauty within
A woman's worth isn't measured by others' opinions of her
Nor can it be determined by them
I must admit I had a hand in defiling the image of women
By accepting the objectification of the beauty of God's creation
Women should be treated like very expansive diamonds
Gold that cannot be sold
A treasure that are kept save from the wicked
Who once they lay their hands on this treasure
Will with no doubt treat it with no respect
And will try to profit from it
I might just be one voice
But I will state my case none the less
A woman's presence should be rejoiced
A woman's worth cannot be measured
And we shouldn't tempt to measure it
Coz out of that act we will only be producing a mess
So we should be treating woman with utmost respect
Like a new born nurtured and protected
I'm not making a statement or claiming that women are perfect
But love, respect and honor doesn't ask one to be blameless
So to all the women out there
I can't promise to treat you as you ought to be 24/7
But i'm surely going to make an effort
Putting my selfish needs aside
Coz the pleasures of this world can't compare to heaven
And who wouldn't want to experience the wonders
Of how a woman's smile can light up a room
And the knowledge of a woman's joy can brighten one's day
So I will seek to love as God loves his church
There's no greater example than Him
To each and every women
Just know that there's a God who loves you unconditionally
And a man's love cannot come close
And for romantic love that you seek in men
Seek it in men that seeks to please God
And wants to love like God does
Coz a love that's based on choice cannot be altered
In closing
Don't let anyone undermine your worth
You are surely a blessing of endless measure

Kate - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

Lord what about Kate
Would she like to go on a date
Or would she want me to be just a mate
We together can it be fate
If I've messed up please give me a clean slate
We a romantic dinner with love on the plate
What would I get if i got rate
Please help me my heart is in a state
And my mind just don't want to make a mistake
Let me be the reason she wants to celebrate
When she tell her friends and family that I'm more than just a roommate
What I feel can't be debate
Call up the love doc to help you translate
So that you won't be afraid to also walk through that gate
The state of relationship with your soulmate
And if I could I would continuously reiterate
This topic I will never overrate
Hope you also get there before it's too late
And if you've been there then you can relate
About this love bubble that will never deflate
And when you come in a couple of years for an update
You'll find out I never compromised and compensate
Because my love for her I don't want to desecrate
Wanting the life we build to be immaculate
In holy matrimony our love was consecrate
And lifes interrelate
The goal to procreate
Beautiful offspring we will create
This is my dream and not prate
And wanting my last words to be filled with love and not hate

I'm made just for you - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

This my version of Gavin Degraw's song called Not Over You

********************

Dreams, a place i will have to leave now
coz our love's too beautiful, for you to not
be in my real world, coz that would be too cold
Hope, hoping that tomorrow
we both would be more than just ok
and you would ask me to stay, coz i know, together we are good
and you will realize

CHORUS:
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
coz you choose me, i'm yours and you are mine
and we will go out and sit down at a table set for two
and finally they are forced to face the truth
No matter what they say, I'm made just for you
Made just for you

Damn, damn girl you are so fine
And I love that you are innocent
You gave your heart what a love story to tell
Our story so magnificent
I'm a man in love doesn't matter what life throw me
I will stick around and won't play games
i'm better than the old me
And I will always be close too you

CHORUS:
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
coz you choose me, i'm yours and you are mine
and we will go out and sit down at a table set for two
and finally they are forced to face the truth
No matter what they say, I'm made just for you

BRIDGE:
And everyday our love are renew
You know there isn't a thing I wouldn't do
I wont turn back from this right track
Because you got me convinced
So then

CHORUS:
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
coz you choose me, i'm yours and you are mine
and we will go out and sit down at a table set for two
and finally they are forced to face the truth
No matter what they say, I'm made just for you
Made just for you
Made just for you
Made just for you

A Poet's Wish (his voice - his letter) - Riaan 'JePro' Davids

To whom this is intended...

Words that are meant to be uttered verbally, are being communicated via the print medium...

Some might say this is Romantic, while others will see differently, thinking this is (I might agree) utterly cowardliness... But I would like to think this is assurance... Assuring that what my mind processed after hearing my heart's case, are fully and completely expressed - the best way I know how.

This might take the form of a letter, but in essence this is me telling you what's on my mind. Why not tell you this in person? Well, I know myself and through experience I didn't wanted to set myself up for a disappointment... If I would have done this in your presence I would have only said half of what I intend to and in this way I won't be thrown off by your Beautiful mind interrupting me (I admit, with valid questions or points you would want to rise)... 

All I can ask is that you won't judge me and make your opinion about me, by the way I choose to convey that which I'm about to say (in written form). In the end it's not how I say it, but what I'm saying that's important.
The Meaning of the words does not differ from one medium to the other. The description of the words remains the same when you consult a dictionary.

So forget about your surroundings

What I'm about to do is astounding

Expressing myself with some rhyming

And within this poem you shall find me

My thoughts upon this sheet

Words that will knock you off your feet

Each and every line unique

Making your heart skip a beat

Don't get me wrong

I'm not demanding

I see a woman nothing less than strong

Her heart she might be defending

What this is, is a poem within a letter

But honestly, doest this really matter

One thing I do realise

My Dreams are vulnerable

If it gets scattered it won't be a surprise

Still I will walk away honourable

I'll give you the key to unlock the door 

As you walk in you'll see it's you I adore

It will be written on the walls and floor

If there was still space I would write more

The ceiling is kept clean

Representing the Purity within me

If I could only make you see

And in the process make you believe

What might and could be

When both of us open heartedly receive

Will you join me on this beautiful journey?

A road mapped out with our lives

We can explore the endless possibilities

But we must do this willingly

Through my eyes you will have to go

The key point to reach my soul

Looking into your eyes just to show

Bringing us closer together is my goal

What I'm trying to say to you

And what I'm dreaming to do

Are two things coming together as one 

Hopefully you won't have an urge to run

Seeing that there is room for fun

"Ek smaak jou met n Passion

Dis soema Goed jy study Fashion..."

This is a quote

From a poem that I wrote

That's the way I feel...

Just wanting to keep it real

You're Unbelievable...

Incredible...

And more...

Way more...

But what am I telling you this for

You already know this unquestionable truth

You make me stand in Awe

And I like you a lot that's for sure!

I wish the way you feel about me is the same

This poem I'm writing is not for fame

And if I'm trying to enthuse you

Am I really to blame?

And I refuse to be ashamed

This process is yet to be named
