POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm just a wonderer... I tell stories from both personal experiences as well as from those around me. Everyone has a story to tell...I just so happen to be the one to tell them at times.

Reality
I roamed the green pastures and even slept on the dead ones
Told myself that if I did not get it right this go around I will walk away from everything
Stared into the mirror and pointed out all of my flaws and imperfections while calling out the aging that was occurring right before my eyes
I saw reality, and it saw me
It came to me in many faces
Even during the times when I thought that I was doing right and thought that my life was going well
Not once did it show me its true intentions until I found myself laying in an empty apartment on a bare floor covered...

Strong Woman
Did you tie her shoes?
Assist in removing her from out of her comfortable dwelling that she spent her first existence?
Did you wake up screaming beside her in the middle of the night, aid in consuming the nutrients that would aid in creating the woman that she would later become?
Were your undeveloped hands there to whip the tears from her eyes as she cradled her knees and maybe her behind while wondering why the world seemed so unfair?
Laid beside her as she dreamed while not realizing that she may very well become something great
You speak as though you know...

First last kiss
I want to kiss your lips like its my first time touching another
Memorize every part of your body like the blind
And recite it back to you as if I were the crafter
Take you..
Leave you drenched worn and complete
Taste the sweet rivers of chocolate
Until our bodies no longer feel like a pair
But just a singular
Win your heart and secure it in a place where only God can find it
Explore eden and release my ego and penetrate the hidden desires that hides behind your smile
I want to be the...

Four Muted Walls
I didn't kiss him for you
My intentions were not to break through his exoskeleton and penetrate a heart that I never knew was there.
But now I know
This secret dies with me
Beyond these four muted walls all that has occured or could have occured will not ever be spoken nor acknowledged in this world or the next
And although Erykah Badu was promising to greet someone in her next lifetime
He and I will only be seen as strangers without any recognition of what had previously occured.
See this is beyond my level of understanding.
I keep him at a far to...

Irreparable
I thought that I could love you
Somewhere in my head I really thought that I could give you what you were needing
To be that glue, that reattached all of your broken pieces
So you could smile
I pulled all of the tricks from out of the bag
Ran to your aid whenever my phone rang
Held you whenever you needed someone to lean on
Drank, ate and tasted the sweetness of your flesh as you melted in my arms…while moaning my name
I was there…with the intentions to love
I stood at the door waiting for an answer
Whispered your name wrote out this poetic...

Simply Love
I become a little boy whenever you are around
My heart becomes much lighter, life just seems so much brighter
Walking on air seems possible
The moon and stars, I now believe are obtainable
What was once a thought has now become reality
I will give my last just to be with you
You are like Christmas on constant replay
I pray to see you every night even before I lay down beside you…
Wake up in the middle of the night, shed a few tears and thank the lord that I have you
For a peace of mind I ask if you will still will be here when I awake in the...

False Realities
I was lost,
Misrepresenting myself like a fool
Forcing myself to become someone that I am not
Blindsided by my false realities, at the worse mental state of my life.
Depression kicking in my door
Dragging me outside bare assed
Shaming me..cursing and belittling me, forcing me closer and closer to this grave that I am fighting to escape from.
Eyes looking at me and judging me
Attempting to cripple me
And force my hand to commit the ultimate sin
Friend enemies smiling in my face yet praying for me to fail
Deviants shaking my hand...
Misrepresenting myself like a fool
Forcing myself to become someone that I am not
Blindsided by my false realities, at the worse mental state of my life.
Depression kicking in my door
Dragging me outside bare assed
Shaming me..cursing and belittling me, forcing me closer and closer to this grave that I am fighting to escape from.
Eyes looking at me and judging me
Attempting to cripple me
And force my hand to commit the ultimate sin
Friend enemies smiling in my face yet praying for me to fail
Deviants shaking my hand...

Closed Chapter
I knew nothing about a broken heart until I met you
The unnatural feel of rolling over and no longer finding you here haunts me to my core.
Its scary to know that the one that you once loved no longer wants you apart of their world anymore
Asking myself what, how and why did this come about?
As I repeatedly watched us fall apart on repeat in my mind
For a while I thought that maybe if I were to pick up more pieces I could repair the broken
I guess being foolish was my charm..and also my flaw
I did it all, yet found that doing it all only ends with heartache...

Smith & Wesson
I watched you change right before my eyes,
morph into a loveless being that I could not revive
There was no amount of love that could melt the coldness that had formed around your heart
No light strong enough to destroy the darkness inside your world.
You had become a stranger inside of my home.
If love were a blind man, than the blind man I would have chosen to be
My heart breaks as I try my best to love you, yet protect myself from the evil that you have chosen to be
The love of my life was supposed to be my everything
The happiness that was...

My heart breaks as I try my best to love you, yet protect myself from the evil that you have chosen to be

Him
All I can remember is hearing him screaming to put the gun down. For the first time I was no longer being seen as the “quiet” one, or the "jokester". In my mind I was telling myself to calm down, that it was okay to let go. But my soul was telling me to kill this man. I seen the fear in his eyes, for the first time I was not going to let this man get up. We had been fighting all day…and still I do not know what the argument was all about.
All I can remember is waking up on the floor, with the worse headache. Body aching and the sound of his voice in the other room.
I felt as...
