I believe that you appreciate me
I believe that you will love me unconditionally
I believe that you will love me without regrets
I believe that you raised me the best way you can
You can’t do it, they will say.
How are you going to succeed in the arts?
Frustration, failure, hopeless
I am a pestering weed of ugliness
The one that annoys you
By breaking up your pristine landscape
You pluck me before I am fully grown
Stubbornly, I return
Again, you pluck me from the earth
Two broken hearts slowly dying
And sorry I could not heal them both
And be one hero, as i kept crying
And thought what was right
To shine both so bright
Then felt captured by my feelings
Sleepless eyes, sleepless nights.
Midnight strikes,
As numerous assignments crowd
A blank mind.
Midnight strikes,
Like when a teacher says "pencils down"
A blank mind
With no resonance.
I am the light to my world that hides in darkness
I am not a quicker, I keep pushing forward
I am trying to be a better person today than I was yesterday and could be tomorrow
Slick sleet, sleepy things
Stumble over me
Hot mess, camo dress
Be still to not be seen
Fire moths busy
Setting sparks to trees
No time to seek for shelter
As grenades go
The waves were my sanity
The smell of the salt so crisp in the air surrounding me,
The crashing of the once so peaceful waves,
The entire different world remaining under the surface
Flawless
Is that a thing?
When I look down I see a disproportioned girl
When I look in the mirror I see an unsatisfied girl
When I look into my eyes, I see an empty, sad, and lonely girl.
I wake up everyday with a smile on my face
Life is a race
I have been pushed around
People have tried to trip me up
But I always had belief in myself
It doesn't matter where you come from
i will be a stronger person.
i believe in myself and my determination.
i shall make my family proud and seek my education.
To be in a wheelchair is very hard to grasp, it's a very tough life like an unfinished task.
Especially if you're like me, a kid or teen, to have to sit back and watch others accomplish your dreams.
I wont stop trying to walk on water,
Even if i cannot swim.
Not because of fear i won't
Lose all my dreams and hopes
I was 8 years old.
My light up sketchers with my pink book bag outshined the sun and my smile.
Entering the school with excitement I hear one kid say "Woah shes fat"
That day sticks with me/
How was I supposed to know it was so bad to be educated and black?
Do I really intimidate you to the point of you trying to hold me back?
All I've tried to do was make something out of $5 and a dream,
Don’t give up just yet,
We all go through hard times
I don’t want to say goodbye,
And I care so please don’t cry
But when I stand here with you,
I see what could be so true
Silent Thoughts
Thoughts,
That’s all they are
That’s all I make.
Will they ever be any more?
Will they ever be any less?
We're often exposed to music
We're often exposed to violence
What you don't really hear of is becoming greater than yourself.
You can achieve greatness, you can achieve more.
Family is supposed to understand your pain
Family is supposed to be there to keep you sane
So what happens when a family falsely cares?
You keep smiling and take all that you can bare
The air is really hard to breathe
The oxygen is choking me
The people are carrying me
They have unknown identities
Strange how people never see
The big picture of reality?
All they see is never seen
