Poetry

You are here:
I never told you

Never had a conversation, everything is in the air Through the years lost the ability to care Your absence was a presence that was always there Valuable lessons taught, life just isn’t fair But just in case my words pull through and reach you, here is what I never told you My childhood was messed…

In between breaks

Morning preparation for a day filled with words Abandoned by understanding, a clash of two worlds Uniforms prance to show their link As formality is used to hide what you think Politeness a tool which could be used by any fool As instructed by every fiber in my body, I remain cool Unanswered questions twiddle…

They lied to me

They say success comes from school He wears a tailor fitted suit, yup success looks cool Study enough and that can be you someday Money comes to those with a degree that’s what they say And success has it all 3 cars 2 houses 1 yacht yes success has a ball Success can never be…

It broke

Severed, broken, shattered, unraveled, corroded, destroyed and gone We replaced it with a token of gratitude For total abandonment would be too rude A straw made rope with a silk line core The titanium layered rope isn’t there anymore Used to be a bridge that the world couldn’t break There are decisions that life will…

Tell the damn news

Today a man got shot Yesterday a vial of disease was dropped Tomorrow a bomb will detonate And right now a country is filled with hate She was thrown of the balcony left in a comatose state He went to the church and was violently raped Terrorists are planning something new And your neighbor is…

Never ending Story

Like flames it licks every inch of my frame My darkness has grown it now chants my name Alluring, its sweet nothingness is beckoning The restraints within the abyss are less than nothing The shackles of reality will kiss the floor Wings of dark feathers will let me soar Forced will be a term banned…

Scattered Frame

Beautiful horrid defying but loss screams but silent Whispers in a crowd Love by law, nature by rule Timed with patience, in an endless fool Don’t win yet forsake all, fall but call when you hit Forget the pain jump past rope Burn the look Ice the cold Kiss the cheeks Mind uneasy fingers move…

Craving Touch

Sensation through warmth, excitement through calm Absolute perfection held in a flawed palm Intimacy through touch, painted with a new brush Shivers turn to shudders, as the end comes ever closer Awake in a dream of US, drunk … hoping to not become sober Intoxicated by your scent mesmerized by your taste Concentrated on the…

Blood Fresh Blood

My heart used to beat to the tunes of her kiss She knitted a blanket from custom made words to cover with She embedded me with the strength of ten men Allowed me to achieve greatness over and over again But now my veins run dry Unable to see the silver lining so I don’t…

Afro Candy

I like candy, the way the sugar meets your tongue The way you feel when it’s all done Candy used to be a rush equal to any gift If there is anything that is something I miss Remember when you were young and you had to eat vegetables and fruit Remember when you were done,…

I don’t know

I don’t know what other dreams I can give you I don’t know what other words can stay true I don’t know how to create another dream to achieve I don’t know how to stay when I want to leave I don’t know what to write feels like I wrote it all I don’t know…

These Damn Poets

They lined the framework of my wordplay They manipulate the sentences I say Reorder my letters, restamp my syllables Correct my multis, make my lines creditable They demonstrated the pictures I illustrated To verify that I would see why the wings on my pieces no longer fly They diamond plated my bars, platinum gilded my…

Chance after chance

You dreamt we were together We hoped it would get better, struggled through issues Your tears were met by tissues My fears were met by reality And now the puddle of affection runs empty Scars run deeper than any vocabulary dare express The chances for love have just become one less Shards of dreams lay…

You love I

You are so sexy, the way you stand there and perform, is heavenly So self-assured, so confident yet not cocky The way your pink lips exhale galaxies for me to get lost in I let go, and float on the flow of your words my mind the ship The way you create life from a…

See for yourself

I am in this city where lies have been stacked upon each other till they reach the sky The fumes from passing cars must have affected my senses and rendered me high Because I swear to you, I can see pigs fly I came here from this small town called “Other People’s Experiences” The mayor…

Dont listen

Let those tears flow, release them into the world; let your fears go The wings your future will fly in on are missing more than a few feathers But perfect is nothing more than an illusion created by a society trying to hide its own flaws Run till you feel you can catch the light…
