Cheat and Sneak
That kiss you laid upon my cheek
as I drifted off to sleep,
your scent so unfamiliar
lingering aura that followed your vibe.
I shut my eyes and submerged
my head into the pillow
sunken deep in hurt, regret
as you use your lips, weapon
a kiss, betray of death.
I oh so know that feeling
of something quite offset
the way you sneaked into the room
only showed you stepped.
I knew exactly what you’ve done
And so I curbed my nest,
I wrapped myself in my emotions
As your kiss took my breath.
as I drifted off to sleep,
your scent so unfamiliar
lingering aura that followed your vibe.
I shut my eyes and submerged
my head into the pillow
sunken deep in hurt, regret

I oh so know that feeling

only showed you stepped.

And so I curbed my nest,
I wrapped myself in my emotions

You Under My Microscope
It amuses me
The intensity of your body,
The way your muscles curb under your flesh,
The way you shiver when I breathe you in,
makes me want to connect every pore that rises off your abdomen,
I admire the way your chest spreads apart
Giving that little space closer to your heart,
I love the way you neck extends from your body,
Like a starting point of a licking track.
Smelling you does things to me,
It puts the pheromone in me.
I look at you from head to toe
That's something you should know,
I want you in all angles ...

Your Fallback Dummy
Its funny how
Every time you get mad
I feel the need to apologize
Although I know I've done
Nothing wrong.
Aggressively you turn your problems around on me
Mad at yourself but scolding me,
Might I carry this load for you,
Unworthy majesty?
I've plastered your wounds,
Kissed your bruises,
Fed your ego,
Rode your storm
I stood by you through it all
Yet you still cant see what you've done wrong.
You've ripped me from the woman I was,
A pillar of strength and courage
You've...
Every time you get mad
I feel the need to apologize
Although I know I've done
Nothing wrong.
Aggressively you turn your problems around on me
Mad at yourself but scolding me,
Might I carry this load for you,
Unworthy majesty?
I've plastered your wounds,
Kissed your bruises,
Fed your ego,
Rode your storm
I stood by you through it all
Yet you still cant see what you've done wrong.
You've ripped me from the woman I was,
A pillar of strength and courage
You've...

In Between
Keep your head down child,
Don't you dare look them in the eyes,
If the white man ask you a question, you answer.
You do not speak unless you are asked to,
Mind your manners now,
It's, “Yes sir, no ma’am”.
These are the rules I was born into
Passed down by my ancestors
From the dark skinned woman and strong black man
to their Negro children.
Sometimes I wonder if these rules apply to me,
As my skin glows differently.
Master calls me his ‘Special one’
I figured that's the reason...
Don't you dare look them in the eyes,
If the white man ask you a question, you answer.
You do not speak unless you are asked to,
Mind your manners now,
It's, “Yes sir, no ma’am”.
These are the rules I was born into
Passed down by my ancestors
From the dark skinned woman and strong black man
to their Negro children.
Sometimes I wonder if these rules apply to me,
As my skin glows differently.
Master calls me his ‘Special one’
I figured that's the reason...

Take A Walk With Me
cracking shells beneath my feet
Tiny pickle in my soles
Scraping sand between my toes
waves crash against the shores
Nut trees dangle in the wind
As I think about where I've been
soldier crabs patrol shorelines
Sea gulls they sing
Such beauty lies within my eyes
As the ocean swings
Beautiful as the diamond jewels
The water surface blings
leaving footprints in the sand
As I merge into the scene
feel the breeze against my skin
As the radiation of the sun soaks in
That 'D Vitamin' ...
Tiny pickle in my soles
Scraping sand between my toes

I Blame Me
you know what,
I've only got myself to blame
for setting my heart free,
Of all the pain it has endured,
it should be in captivity.
I risked the cracks
And took a chance,
I thought that love could mend.
Now I'm back where I started,
with a heart that has shattered
With nothing else to lend.
I've only got myself to blame

with a heart that has shattered

Raw The Taste of Envy
Taste that bitterness in your mouth,
The aloe vera on your lips
That after taste of wasabi on the tip of your tongue,
It represents the bitterness you feel towards me
When you speak my name.
The pungent stench that follows your breathe
Reeks of jealously and malice
If you so desire the taste of sweet molasses
Then please remember this
When speaking my name
mention this,
Caring without a limit
Helpful without question
Admirable
Modest and modern
Encouraging
Loving
Loyal
Always there.

Mr. WhatsApp Whore
You are a WhatsApp whore,
A phone application lose cannon.
There is no value to your words
When you say "there is only me"
Calling me baby
Yet
You’re planning link-ups and hook-ups
Referring to them as "Bae", "B"
You App Slut!
Cyber cheater,
Tell the ladies what they wanna hear, they open up to you.
Maybe that’s giving you too much credit,
Mr. DontKnowWhenToTakeAHint.
You are so caught up in seeking
Whatever the f%÷k it is u seek,
You can't identify the uninterested
Wit your thirsty ass. ...

Live Life Work Smart
Strong-willed mentality,
A brighter future for me.
I took the world that orbits
and made it my masterpiece.
No hand-outs, I handled, my destiny.
I overcame the narrow minded island
that thought it had the best of me
And I prospered in the land of richer fields and wider grounds.
I saw a tall future for me and I took it by the horn,
I Eze Bongo carved that crown
which belonged to me!
The earth is my playground,
The work is my play
I make the bills every day,
I took look at my past
and bust a laugh, ...
A brighter future for me.
I took the world that orbits
and made it my masterpiece.
No hand-outs, I handled, my destiny.
I overcame the narrow minded island

If I Were A Poem For A Day
If I were a poem for a day,
It'll be in the sweetest way.
The melodious words that
rolls of your tongue,
Having a body of substance where
every line hits the nail
and rhymes,
If I were a poem for a day,
I'd flow through the darkest terrain
shedding light with the most passionate ray.
I'd bring comfort where it pains,
and the pain where it yearns to see the world through my eyes.
If I were a poem for a day,
You'd experience the weather
Whether the nimbus manipulates the sky
Or sun shines, ...
It'll be in the sweetest way.

Me, Myself n I
I do not have a personality disorder,
I have an order of personalities.
When you see me,
It’s not me you see but the part of me that wants to be seen.
When I say, "Just let me be"
It’s not me who wants you gone
But the other me.
The one that takes control of me
And want to be the most of me.
When I said, "I want you"
That was me,
The real me,
The me that's too afraid to look you in the eyes,
The me that keeps my head down just cause I'm shy,
It’s the me that has so much to say to you but says so little...
I have an order of personalities.
When you see me,
It’s not me you see but the part of me that wants to be seen.
When I say, "Just let me be"
It’s not me who wants you gone
But the other me.
The one that takes control of me
And want to be the most of me.

Dear Elohim (God)
Eli Eli lema Sabachthani
That's Aramaic for,
My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?
What of the promises you made to me,
A promise is a comfort to a fool,
But God is that how you see me?
When you promised to
Never forsake me if i seek to you,
or the plan to prosper and not to harm me,
plans of hope and the future for me,
My God you took from me,
My brother, my mother, significant other,
Why, God of compassion and Mercy,
Do you see me, God?
You called me out on little faith,
and asked me why I doubt,
When...
