    I Bought Her Flowers Today

    -I Bought Her Flowers Today-
    Written By: ELEETE

    [Chorus 2x]
    Its like the flowers
    I have a thorn in my side
    Full of love an hate
    I even bleed red when i cry
    I cant reach my stems out to you
    Its you ive learn to despise
    Sittin alone in the dark
    Im sittin wonderin why

    Its Like flowers.........


    I bought her flowers today..........
    There wasnt really any special occasion
    It wasnt our anniversary or any speacial arrangement
    I just wanted her to see how i truly felt
    Staring deeply into her eyes watching her heart melt
    She was a sign of beauty, Nothing less than perfection
    Makin sweet love, showing all types of affection
    I knew after today, that we would be forever
    Bound to each others love an always stay together

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


    [Chorus 2x]
    Its like the flowers
    I have a thorn in my side
    Full of love an hate
    I even bleed red when i cry
    I cant reach my stems out to you
    Its you ive learn to despise
    Sittin alone in the dark
    Im sittin wonderin why

    Its Like flowers.........

    I bought her flowers today........
    There wasnt really any special occasion
    It wasnt our anniversary or any special arrangement
    Problems have been escalating into arguments lately
    Cause i keep letting this jealousy bullshit overtake me
    I think she hates me, Cause last night it got crazy
    I beat the livin shit outta her in front of our baby
    It sad but its true, I cant seem to control it with you
    You drive me mad an then i cant pry my hands off you
    See last night i was drunk, I know its not an excuse
    Cause either way you look at, it still counts as abuse
    Beaten an battered, she now lays ina hospital bed
    I wish i wouldnt have done the things that i did
    Hush girl rest up...Youll soon again be with me
    I love you baby.....I hope you can forgive me

    I bought her flowers today..........
    There wasnt really any special occasion
    It wasnt our anniversary or any special arrangement
    It it was the day of her funeral, she was finally dead
    I wish i could take back all things i did an i said
    Now im sittin here at the foot of my bed
    Contemplating suicide pointing this gun at my head
    "I never meant to hurt her!!! I never meant for this!!!"
    I took a butcher knife an began to hack at my wrists
    "Fuck.....Why did you have to leeeeeave!!!"
    I stabbed myself in the stomach an started to bleed
    God how did this happen...please tell me why!!!
    My vision began to blurr as the tears covered my eyes
    Now on the ground lying ina a puddle of blood
    Barely breathing, flashbacks, reminiscing of us
    Suddenly the child wakes, hes up screamin an crying
    But i can no longer helpem "Baby cant you see that im dying?"
    Choking on my own breath i glance at him an i say
    "Baby im sorry, but daddy's gotta go away....."
    "I pray you grow up to be happy an free...."
    "Live a good life an have a great family..."
    "Treat your wife as though she is your queen.."
    "And dont ever try an grow up to be like Daddy..."
    "I love you baby, now give daddy your hand"
    I take an put the gun in my mouth.....BANG!!!!!

    (*Child Crying*)

    i thought you had a good progression thru the verses, the last was definately the best... havent really read much of your drops, but this was good... you really got the story across nicely... with good imagery thru it..... i liked the way you started the verse, normally i dont like that repetative thing.. but thought it worked..... all in all a good drop, well worth the read......

    --[Flow]---
    Flow was straight, had some dope rhymes in there...the structure itself was nice, good bar length..:

    "See last night i was drunk, I know its not an excuse
    Cause either way you look at, it still counts as abuse"


    --[Vocab]--
    Vocab, i felt, really started to shine through on the 3rd verse...although the first two stanza's were like, sun tryin' to shine through the clouds n' in the 3rd it broke from it's shell, you know..? Liked your terminology, & your rhymes had a certain complexity to them, not simply 3 letter rhymes...dope.

    --[Concept]--
    Concept was nice, some could say that it has been played, however you added a personal touch n' personal emotion to it, which i thought was brutal..you had alot of nice imagry in here, really made me come into contact with the story.

    --[Overall]--
    Not seen alot of your writing, but if it's anything like this, then i want to see alot more..a well deserved 4/5.. keep this quality up..you have alot of potential.

    Flow - pretty tight, I just noticed a line that seemed a little off every once in a while but overall good

    Vocab - good, used your words well, didn't use three words to say what one could

    Concept - was interesting, I didn't really vibe with it but that's just me - I think other people might. The repetition did pretty well but I think you should've mentioned the hospital earlier in verse two. 'Cause verse one and three both explained why you brought flowers but we don't get that in verse two untill the end of it.

    Overall - nice verse, not my style but I can give it respect

    Cool drop man...

    This is my sort of piece...

    So much better than writing about guns and thugs and so on... Anyone can do that... As we see from the majority of drops here in OM...

    This had good consistant flow to it... Dropped in only 2 places that a saw... You had some nice vocab on this... Used your topic and elaborated on it nicely... Your complexity complimented the topic well...

    This was a good drop... Havent seen anything from you before... So... Keep dropping...

    And...

    Hit up the OM's in my sig!

    Thanks...

    Pz...

    Woah! This was ill. The story telling was pretty nice. This was my favorite read since i been at this site. That shit was ill. Normally i don't like choruses in texts but it went perfect. I dont normany like repetition either, but that is one of the things that made this so ill. Definatly worth the read. Keep up the good work.
