POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am just starting out. I say what I mean and mean what I say.Just Deal With It. I express myself through the work of art. Just trying to put myself and express my thoughts out there.
Gone Is My Friend-An Absence/Loss Poem
Gone is My friend
Like a dust in the wind.
She left me her
Sparkly cell phone;
She left her heart
in my presence.
I looked at her cell phone's
Contact list solemnly;
A person who's saying
Goodbye to her family
for the very last time.
A picture of her face plastered the
Left side of her driver's license;
in memory of her happy-go-lucky
personality.
The scent of the cherry lipstick,
Grape chapstick,
Raspberry perfume,
and a pack of Strawberry
Bubble gum
reminds me of her liking for fruit.
A small bottle of hand...
Like a dust in the wind.
She left me her
Sparkly cell phone;
She left her heart
in my presence.

Contact list solemnly;
A person who's saying

Going Back Through Time-A List Poem
A red shoebox
Containing birthday cards
My family sent me.
A bunch of screen t-shirts
Reliving the cartoons
of the past.
Twelve pairs of comfortable shoes
that have gone through
Numerous stages of my life.
Three African Dresses
To remember my family's origin.
A big black book
Containing my childhood disability.
Seven comedy and musical DVDs
To watch and pretend that I'm living out
My dream.
As I look through these things,
I know where I've been,
Where I've come from,
What I'm going through,
What I want to be in...
