When the heart is unaware
Of the hurting whimpers of despair
The nasty wails don't come out loud
But manage to get suppressed in a shroud
Dear Partner-To-Be,
I have a wicked request.
I want to see the different worlds of this universe, alone,
Love myself, and come back home.
If during my travels we meet,
I welcome you with a simple greet.
I'm trying to pour my heart out
shaping my emotions into words,
words that will barely even compare to the vast void of space in my heart
success, my aspiration, but I hear those voices in my head,
Pen. Paper.
Thoughts. Words. Feelings.
Unfinished trains of thought.
Wants. Needs. Desires. Plans.
All lie within the space between
My poetry and me.
Where did it begin?
Glances exchanged.
Two lovers unaware of what God has arranged.
Interests shared, along with stories of the past.
Moments became years and the relationship was meant to last.
It’s always fun when something totally consumes you.
When your mind goes blank and feeling lost becomes fun.
The tears that are surfacing upon my eyes and leaving glistening trails of a salty substance are not there for the comfort you had given me.
If I could drink my tears, I’d no longer be thirsty.
If they would quench the fire, I’d no longer be burning.
If they would wash away the worms, I’d no longer be hurting.
Money
There's so much of it in the world
but why don't I have any of it?
Why does my family struggle so much
when others have money coming out of their ears?
I'm stuck trying to figure out
I just can't find the right one.
What am I doing wrong?
They say go with the money.
I say I want to go where ever my heart desires.
But I have had a personal struggle with having too little.
Why can’t I succumb to these emotions?
I see spring, but feel winter
Petals dance in the stinging wind
Gust of stormy winds raise me to the utmost high
I am sorry,
I am a slut.
I dream for what I do not have.
I crave his touch if only for a second.
For his attention to get off of you and on to me.
Staring at her past self
Evaporated Dreams
Waistline Increased
Color Dimmed
Snapshots of happiness
Endless Sunny Skies
Playful Fights
Summertime
How old was she?
Her dreams are coming true,
So long she has waited,
She never imagined the things she had so longed for would be given unto her,
She has always been a dreamer,
She thought these dreams were just like the others;
Harsh Whip
Painful Obedience
Rewarded Pleasure
Consequences Incognizant
Joy Abound
Futile Resistance
Lost Control
Scarring Realization
Reality Altered
Desires Overwhelming
I wish.... I want to be there to hear the sigh.Feel it fill up within your chestAnd hear it rush out your nostrilsAs it does through mine.and to see it in your eyes.That would be beautiful.
I called to the Universe to bring him back.He is the one.He never returned.And I met a guy.And I realized.The Universe didn't bring him back.Because he was not the one.
(December 14, 2011)
The bones they scream in volumes that grow
I hear them begging to show
They want to press pass the barriers
They want me to learn “no”
It scares me as much as it thrills me
To take it all in and see
Am I wrong if I tell you I want to make love to your mind first ?
Before giving giving you back shots that sweat out your hair in make your spine hurt.
I want to make you mine first.
I want to put in the time first.
I am that nameless one, the one girl everyone seems to have an opinion on
Oh look, there's that one ! that slim one, I heard she was this , heard she was that
You hardly even know me to even talk. what do I do ?
There’s a bitch in my brain
she’s filled with lemon juice
and black tar
There’s a bitch in my brain
I didn’t see her
filled with fragments of broken mirrors
and
rotten fruit
the mirror reflects
my image
i see all flaws
no light
am i really like this
is this what
others see?
I’m not perfectI’m not very smartI know I’m differentBut I don’t careBecause I want toChange the worldAnd I’m not goingTo stand aroundLike the restOf you pansiesWho are afraid
Suck it in suck it out.
What are you trying to do, pass out?
Not something you wish to be?
Take heavy thoughts in wisely.
It is hard to watch when it's hard to breath.
Will you stop going weak, don't deceive.
A pasted on smile, stretched over bleached white teeth
Perfect skin, clean and bright
Perfect body, toned, tanned, and fit
Perfect hair, straighted and dyed
THESE are robot girls, ripped from glossy pages.
The ghostly chest stilled at the thought..
A future of love brought into existence quick like lightning
leaving the taste of heavenly ions on this earthly plane.
She walks, shivering under the snow's falling, warming the bones up the best she can. But her body's lean and fragile, vulnerable, a target. Her body does it's best to defend against the winter's harsh chill, but its so difficult.
Oh to life’s little desires
Through irresistible body’s pleasures
Such do they bring the hottest fires
Within you cannot control
Within it gives comfort and console
Promises to make things better
when you look at me what you see
darskin ,brown eyes and sandy brown hair\
do see a big smile, with dark lips
someone thats not that tall
but stand so tall and proud
all the time
I live in Texas weather,
It’s way too hot for us.
We always pray for rain to come,
Then we always fuss.
When it comes I’m unprepared
And don’t know what to do…
I’m undecided what to wear,
Skin deep I'm blond,
so I must be dumb,
but my mind whirls faster than most.
Skin deep I wear skirts,
so I'm a crazy conservative,
but I'm quite liberal.
Skin deep I'm not skinny,
If women are not bound by their waistlines,
Then why do girls’ eyes droop at the sight of scales?
More like blooming tulips than heady wines,
Each and every question, by you or I, to me
My mind is quick to answer, so sure I’ll feel it be
An evolution strikes, as dusk turns into dawn
Awakened with wide eyes, my decision’s fully wrong
Pain-filled days run longand hope is dashed with careless words.Love is lost in a night's sleep and reawoken in hopeful dreamsOnly to be found dead in the morning light.
To clear my mind for the aura of a focussed being..
To put aside self inflicted insercurties brought on by societies images of perfection,
It’s so untouchable.
Something I could want so badly, if circumstances were different.
But even then, something I shouldn’t want.
I long to fall in love with my life
I yearn to live beautifully,
Crave to paint my life with metaphor
And plant seeds of meaning and significance
In everything I do.
I dip my brush in a pool of bue
She stared in the mirror wanting moreMore of what she lostThe world was mocking herCracks formed on the glass of her skinShe ran from the image and fellBetrayed by her body holding her down
Out of the frying pan
Into the fire
Just your fellow man
Mislead by desire
I can do it, I know I can
Liar liar pants on fire
We wish upon a shooting star, just to change who we are
Gaze among the stars so bright, just so we can see the light
I don’t know much about the world, economy, politics and what not
I didn’t know about slavery or racism at all for that matter
I didn’t know about Martin Luther King’s dream and how the conquest for Civil Rights
Far far away my dreams reside...They are my innermost desires that I can no longer hide...My dreams are crying out to me so my heart believes...My mind whispers, my spirit grieves...Far far away my dreams seem distant...They silently whimper, but
No matter how big,
No matter how small,
I will make a difference,
That will touch the hearts of all.
No such boundaries,
Can tear me down
Because I am me
And I don’t frown.
Dreams to me are...
The world within a world,
Is a story that never gets old.
As time alternates inward and outward,
My third eye connects the invisible cord.
Thoughts begin to gather as a sea of buzzing flies,
Unspoken words are very powerful words
Words that go without say
But hold strong meanings in the array of thoughts
These are my Unspoken Words
To you I may look like I got it all
Tell your haters
Thank you and your supporters
For being Mr. and Mrs. Literal
Takes courage to speak one's mind
Voices whether positive or negative
Celebrate, rejoice in your own vibes
I need your love.
Why don’t you love me?
Is it because I’m hateful?
I need your love.
Why don’t you love me?
Is it because I’m fat?
When he was born, he was special.
He learned things a different way.
He seen the world through unique eyes.
He spoke in the way he thought others spoke.
Some seen him as stupid, but I seen him as unique.
I write to express
To give birth to fantasies
To show the real me
My secretes only paper can see
Keep the pain away, Keep my mind sane
I write
Without you I’m like a bird without wings
Grass that’s not green
Trees naked, no leaves.
Without you I'm like a song without depth
Cheesy lines not in cards
The sky with no stars
Cut me open
Lay me bare
My beating heart I give to you
Beneath these lights
On this stage
I flay myself before you
Nothing is held back
Nothing will be left
In this small time
Both our deepest fear and most transcendent dream—
burrow deep within our deepest heart, not to be found
By those who search and search with just their hands.
It comes to us in darkest night, in most uplifted day
It feels cold here without you...
Its funny how much a hug can do.
Arms filled with warmth that surround you...
However your hugs were more than a comfort...
You not only handed me your heart
You see a pretty face
I see a beautiful soul
You see a smile on her face
I see scars on her heart
You think she is happy, but you do not see beyond that
She hides behind the blue sky
The sound of my heart beats in rage...
Boom-Boom, Boom-Boom
My Fist clinch in Anger...
Boom-Boom, Boom-Boom
The sight of him makes me crawl into my inner shell...
Where were you?
I never had a home,
In fact, I never remember having a family.
These people? who are they?
I over heard something unpleasent,
I could remember the pharses of "Adopted", "Brought here for a reason",
A bunch of scrambled words vomited it upon a page
Gleaming with a contrast of feelings and opinion
Some may relate to it some may not
It could be about love or life or an activist though
Dressed ready to leave,
Black skirt and black leggings,
I'm dressed for him, I want him to see me,
I'm wearing a sliver necklace and small sliver earrings,
I'm ready to impress you, not deceive you
Never let yourself be underestimated,
For you possess so much untapped greatness.
When the road ahead leads to darkness, be true to yourself and you will find that the light within will shine brighter than any other.
College is a place where everyone wants to be.
But its not where everyone can see
Books, Fees, tution.
I hold my breath and keep wishing
A miracle, a star or something
Mirrors and mind contort what I see,
Skinny and thin is what I must be;
86 pounds just isn’t enough,
Starving myself is going to be tough.
SELF VALUE IS MAIMED
WEEPING WOES WORSEN AS OPTIMISM WITHERS
AND THE INTERNAL ABUSE REMAINS UNTAMED
THE HEART AND MIND SHIVERS.
I could be classified
Labeled, Deemed, whatever,
As probably insane.
I laugh at this theory,
But some of the surrounding
Facts verify the thought.
A circumstance rises,
If Earth was a boy,
what would he make?
If Earth was a girl.
what would she draw?
If Earth was a mother,
what would she love?
If Earth was a father,
what would he teach?
You are an individual
Your pasts are only residual
You are who you are
Others are who they are
Don't be swayed by the wrong
Because life is way too long
You be what you want to be
I am what I am
I am a shining star
Shining bright to see in the eyes of my family
I am what I am
I am a musical instrument
High and low notes
I capture the ear of others
I am what I am
Take care,
Here, take mine
I could afford to misplace it for the now.
Tick tock,
Youth is slipping over mind and through matter
Evaporating and subliming to form the stars on your palm
Could you please pay closer attention to me
You know, I matter too
According to text I was simply placed here to pump blood through your veins
Keeping your body afoot, but
Often times I tend to find
That all the times we fight and fight
To be an individual
Or even feel that we have pull
To say in how we want to be
We’re fighting anonymity
To learn the pattern of my ways let loose the reigns clipped to my veins. Drive out my demons to the winds and scatter far and wide my sins. Let me free my hearts desires, fulfill my dreams, they'll not expire.
A story never told is just Blank pages with possibilities
Causing the mind to begin racing, Ripping and Raving
Searching for an answer, amongst so many confusions
Today or Tomorrow, Tomorrow or Today?
