Poet Introduction
I am just a passionate writer, looking for aspiration to inspire, at an early age I discovered my talent. "You may shoot me with you words, cut me with your eyes, kill me with hatefulness, but still I rise" ~Maya Angelou
Things My Man Won't Do
Loving me is like watching sex scenes with your parents uncomfortable but you still continue to stay
Men love a good women that stands by their side holding them down on lock ain't much time to play
But I must I say I haven't really been in a relationship as of late, and I know that when I get one he'll be sure to stay
Want him to text me good morning, IG his #wcw, phone conversations while sleeping, "oops bae wake up! Did you like this picture?"
These females nowadays put too much pressure on a nigga
But my man will just be able to be his...

Not Your Typical Poem
I had a dream last night about something and I can't quite remember exactly, but it kind of saddens me because I wanted to tell someone....my mind in a daze but
Putting people in place to please perfect pleasures I found them persuasively intuned with my pink matter, and it became a prerequisite to produce precum before propelling his penile tip into his property providing a pretty perception
Opponents oppressed motives of me owning up to obligations only found in the obvious objective in which was obsolete to what I wished to obtain, occupied with the occasional...

California Dreams with a New York State of Mind
Little girl born in the Emerald State and raised in the Lone Star
Growing up with a loving family telling her that one day she'd be anything, the sky was the limit
Not knowing that in the years to come she'd be faced with many obstacles in the race we living
As a little girl she dreamt of being the next black gymnast but pride of rejection and failure got in the way of that blessing
Gifted talents would be left hidden for years now and what's next is hard to foreshadow at this point
So at fourteen and still living the passion of really...

Let's Play A Game Called Trust
Let's play a little game called trust
Not many rules its fairly simple
And no worries about prizes or praise
Only catch is you mustn't lust
Nor cheat, for that matter even think about or even look another person in their eye!
Because you value me whole heartedly, enough to respect me as a woman I trust you wouldn't lie
But pardon me I think I'm losing due to my insecurities
That are draining me daily of my sanity to think you wouldn't even think twice to commit adultery
I think that's a ten point deduction because I know I'm bugging when...

Beyond Her Beauty
It becomes repetitive to only have guys make mention of her beauty
Not taking time to understand her mind
It's like being helplessly noticed, all while being invisible at the same time
a certain level of neglection grows on you like fine wine, so keep it together
She lures him in with (ass)ets so enormous it caresses his soul, an erection shows, over fade to black, ideal satisfaction
Big booty, tight skin tights, attraction
it is a disguise, making a man's eyes see only external appearance
But if he'd look beneath he'd...

The Complexity
The complexity is his love for me
Keeps me elated and grounded in the instruction he created
I am not moved by worldly matters
Rather than if I told you my story would you listen?
To the heartbreaks, struggles, and accomplishments
Or could it be to much for you to handle like a bolder on your back
To long to endure my painful memories to soon to react...
You see it is the simplicity in how easy sin is made to approach our path
(Story of Adam and Eve)
I am not moved by fleshful pleasures
Although I am tested daily
I must not...

The Courage to Love
Can I conquer this? Is it really for everyone?
Can I literally get on this ship?
Some say this can be a dangerous ride with out your seat belt
Some say it can cause damage
But I won't go in detail
See they say it's not for sale it is not retail
So I buy another drink because love can stink can you sense that strong smell
Some say it doesn't exist until the first kiss
Some say it feels like a dagger cut after that first nut
But who are they to judge you I wish I knew what you've been through tbh I heard so many stories about you
And I'm starting to feel...

Recovery
Who ever lived for the day where they were happy to say they hit rock bottom
For the day where their every emotion would be tested by faith
Painful thoughts engraved in my brain
Taunted by those sexy words you whispered disguising them as "beautiful"
Misfit persona conceived in .2 seconds
A year has passed now and still I'm not delivered from it
Amy Winehouse, ran from being confined to recovery
I was sinking deep in sin,
Far from the peaceful shore,
Very deeply stained within,
Sinking to rise no more;
But the Master of...

Moments with a Picture
Moments with the picture
Are like sunny days with no shine
Whistles with no blow
But it is the canvas that really tells us what the artist wanted to portray to us
And nowadays we're living pictureless because we take each moment for granted
Be for sure that if I see another day I'll never forget get it
No film so I started screen shotting
these photos to my mental memo
Remembering so vividly even if it was a place that I didn't want to go
Back to me because history is important to the person that I want to be

She
Sheltered girl from the sinful world around her
Loved deeply with Christian values
Fatherless, no love to be expressed
but she is more valuable than gold and diamonds
Beautiful was she a fearfully and wonderfully made creature
God smiled down on his marvelous work
A man's eyes would be drawn in by what was displayed by external appearance
she was thrown to dark nights at Onyx to pick up crisp revenues, society confined her
Seven foot poles rained the room as big booty babes gyrated their assets on 9 to 5 men

Video Tape It
They say pictures are worth a thousand words. So does that make a video worth a million? Actually living in the moment does that make each word a billion?
Through the 2000s every thing was televised for all
In NYC witnessed Twin Towers fall, a tragedy in the making became big in history
G.W. Bush was head of state when down south N.O. we saw the levies break, Katrina was furious putting her people to death, some even considered refugees because the government couldn't handle what the disatser left
What about in '08 when Barack Obama became in charge of a...

Sneaking Out
We were young stallions ready to consume the midnight air
Rebellious adolescence wanting to experience a happy hour
Black Camero, sunroof back, swerving thru the streets of Triple D
With Beat faces, skin tight dresses, and heels higher than that sweet Mary Jane we inhaled leaving us breathless
Topic of the night is who is the baddest bitch
Niggas with tattoos on every inch of their body find interest in fair skin beauties
Naive to our sexual appeal attraction looked upon these big booties
Phone vibrating with twenty-seven...
