POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
As a poet, I share my personal experiences as a young adult. Life is a roller coaster and you can only take it one day at time so why not share it with everyone?
Unspoken
Living in sin city
Is like the horror of a train wreck
Im wishing i could upgrade my status in life
I need cash
Less anxiety
A meaning to live
A reason
Less problems
More good luck
God, Sin City is such a train wreck
Suddenly being plunged into a dark space
No positivity
Looking for a way to express myself
I feel like im living in the wrong city
Im being drawn to live by the woods
Wheres my good luck
Im ready too rise up
Be the woman i was meant to be
Im ready to do...

Bad at love
I’m bad at Love,
So is everyone else,
I enjoy the taste of vodka,
I enjoy the moment of the numbness,
You can’t blame me for trying,
I’m bad at love,
I’m not getting better at it,
There’s so many people out there,
Who wants this?
I’m going to enjoy my life to the fullest,
Till I die.
I’m bad at love,
I’m afraid of your emotions.
If I walk, I walk
Chase me.
I jump when people yell.
I always want to say no,
I get cranky when I’m hungry.
I’m broken hearted,
I’m alone.
I’m going to crazy when I’m...

Trap Queen
A little girl young and fragile. Weak to the bones, Light as a feather.
Taken away from her family at 4.
Filled to the core with hurt and anger she grew,
Standing by her she has a crowd of “fans”,
The flow of daily compliments come flowing in message after message,
The little girl who was never noticed, who was so innocent,
The flow of history has corrupted her,
The daughter of crip born into the danger of the hood,
The ghetto is woven into her DNA
Overcoming the danger, moving into a better neighborhood,
Leaving her childhood behind growing...

The flow of history has corrupted her,
The daughter of crip born into the danger of the hood,
The ghetto is woven into her DNA
Overcoming the danger, moving into a better neighborhood,
Leaving her childhood behind growing...

Arms around you
I wish i could have my heart racing
Again
Hold you close breathe you in
But i know if i do it’ll be all bad
I can’t do it for you
If you ever get a chance to touch me again
I won’t be able to get away
I can’t breathe
I need to change my mind
I don’t understand what they want from me
I just want my arms around you
Long live Jahseh
To breathe around you
Would calm my downward spiral
I take drugs on a daily
I’m trying to find ways to make money
On a daily
Let me know
Love you like i had to...
Again
Hold you close breathe you in
But i know if i do it’ll be all bad
I can’t do it for you
If you ever get a chance to touch me again
I won’t be able to get away
I can’t breathe
I need to change my mind
I don’t understand what they want from me
I just want my arms around you
Long live Jahseh
To breathe around you
Would calm my downward spiral
I take drugs on a daily
I’m trying to find ways to make money
On a daily
Let me know
Love you like i had to...

Losin control
She's feeling a little numb now
Losing control
Falling into despair
She’s falling for him now
Thinks it’s alright
She’s looking for something
That has that hype
She’s feels guilty from the last guy
She broke her own heart
Carrying this baggage
She’s losing control
This guy he really likes her
She’s falling off the edge
She doesn’t get it
Despite the attraction she can’t help it
She’s still hurting inside from the last guy
He doesn’t see the pain
She’s hiding
Losing the battle
Inside
She’s...

Where I stand
I wish i could touch your face
Where all your scars are
You said don’t ever give up
It's so hard to be something i'm not
You had so much of my trust
Now i walk alone
With my head held high
I wish i could see you smile one more time
There's no more time
Now i walk alone
With my head held high
I feel so alive
I had a touch
I had a feeling
But i have walked alone
All these years
No one by my side
You brought me happiness
You brought me a joy i have never felt
I have seen it all
Before so close ...
Where all your scars are
You said don’t ever give up
It's so hard to be something i'm not
You had so much of my trust
Now i walk alone
With my head held high
I wish i could see you smile one more time
There's no more time
Now i walk alone
With my head held high
I feel so alive
I had a touch
I had a feeling
But i have walked alone
All these years
No one by my side
You brought me happiness
You brought me a joy i have never felt
I have seen it all

Cry for love
I had an angel fall in front of me,
You never see it coming,
When people say he’s perfect for you,
I cry for love,
I cry for my angel,
You got my angel,
I can’t get him back now,
I shouldn’t cry for love,
I wish I was more prepared.
We had arguments, our faults,
Were we even good for each other?
What was it?
Why were you there?
I cry for love,
I shouldn’t be cryin for love,
I don’t think I’m right for love,
You were an angel that fell.
Where’s that halo?
Where’s my baby?
Heaven took my angel from...

Do you miss me at all?
I’ve been wondering if you miss me,
I just want to know what’s going on,
Are you okay?
Do you miss me at all,
Do you wonder about me,
Do you ever just want to text me,
I just want to know if you’re okay,
You got your walls up,
You aren’t happy,
I can tell,
Do you think about me?
Do you ever wonder what I’m up to?
I just want you to find your home,
I wish you were okay,
Do you miss me at all?
Did you ever miss me?
I’m passing by your town,
Thinking of you.
Do you wonder what I’m up to without you?
I just want to know what’s going on,
Are you okay?
Do you miss me at all,
Do you wonder about me,
Do you ever just want to text me,
I just want to know if you’re okay,
You got your walls up,
You aren’t happy,
I can tell,
Do you think about me?
Do you ever wonder what I’m up to?
I just want you to find your home,
I wish you were okay,
Do you miss me at all?
Did you ever miss me?
I’m passing by your town,
Thinking of you.
Do you wonder what I’m up to without you?

Paint my love
I don’t know why I’m hurting still
I miss smiling
I miss laughing
When I’m with you
I feel like I’m on the moon
I put myself out there
I’m losing myself in the morning
Cause you’re all in my head
Baby I’m just doing my best
I really want you here with me
Move the pain from my heart
I can’t stand this loneliness
Falling
I keep falling for you
Paint my love
It’s right there
The best artwork I ever did
Look at you
That beautiful smile
The way your hair falls to your waist
The way you swing your...

Hate
Tired of love,
Tired of you,
I hate you,
I hate this town,
Made me cold,
I'm not weak, i'm strong
I was there for you
I hate you
I hate you i hate you
I can't do this anymore
I can't be here
I was under the moonlight
With you
I was in your arms
And you acted like you liked me
You fake
You a liar
I tried
I tried so hard
Get your mood right
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you
You are the dirt beneath my feet
You are hurtful
Mean
Heartbreaking
I can't stand...

Heart on my sleeve
Heart been broke so many times
I don’t believe in love
My mom says it’s my fault
But how could it be my fault
I know I wear my heart on my sleeve
Think it’s best if I put my heart away
It’s the best for me
if I put my heart on ice
It ain’t healing no more
See I’ve shed more tears than I’ve shared
My smile
These days everything seems so rainy
You got the best of me
Now I realize that people don’t deserve that side
So why I should I give it up
When y’all don’t deserve it
The weight of society on my shoulders ...
I don’t believe in love
My mom says it’s my fault
But how could it be my fault
I know I wear my heart on my sleeve
Think it’s best if I put my heart away
It’s the best for me
if I put my heart on ice
It ain’t healing no more
See I’ve shed more tears than I’ve shared
My smile
These days everything seems so rainy
You got the best of me
Now I realize that people don’t deserve that side
So why I should I give it up
When y’all don’t deserve it
The weight of society on my shoulders ...

Ain’t thinking about you
Tonight is so perfect without you
You and me are finished
You calling me a heartbreaker
Wasting time
Trust me
When I’m doing me
I’m not thinking about you
I’m too cute to have you on my mind
Boy I’m ain’t trippin
Tonight I’m going out with my girls
I’m chucking up the deuces
I’m just tryna have a great time tonight
When I’m up in the club
I don’t want a call from you
Don’t kill my vibe
This is once in a lifetime for me
I may be a heartbreaker
But you ain’t makin this heart beat
Trust me
I’m one...
You and me are finished

Tonight I’m going out with my girls
I’m chucking up the deuces
