Betrayal
For his lips was soft and smooth, his heart made of gold, seems as if he was every woman's wish for ones life with him to grow old.
But have you ever had a kiss from betrayed lips. His words spoken so genuinely smooth, couldn't help but make your heart move. Moving in directions you never would imagine,your feeling like a queen whose just won a pageant.
Who would of thought he had the Lips of Betrayal. Gentle touches and soft kisses, yes I was proud to be his misses. Never knew why his kisses was bittersweet, guess it was that taste of betrayal and my lips that...

What I Survived Might Kill You
What I've survived might kill you, Don't base your sunshine from my storm you might not make it through.
Flaws and failure continued to fall at my feet as many tried to swoop in and take my seat.
Trials and tribulation came in like a tsunami trying to turn my world upside down as I walked around trying not to frown.
Heartbreak and pain painted a vivid picture that some just didn't understand while others were so judgemental and wouldn't even lend a hand.

Feeling trapped unable to fly, never realizing or understanding why no matter how hard I tried.
Turning in circles, searching a way out, with all my power I struggled without a doubt.
Feeling like a caged bird with no room to breathe, all around me is nothing but selfishness and greed.
I can't see pass the bars so I xscape through the stars, in my mind it seems to soothe the scars.
Throughout my life all I ever wanted was to be able to gracefully smile, I never imagined I'd have to walk these painful miles. ...

I Wear My Heart On My Sleeve
I'm trying to hold together my feelings, my voice is silent but my feelings are hitting the ceiling.
Grasping at reality as I hold back my tears, being played by the one I loved has always been my fears.
Momma always said I wear my heart on my sleeve, never imagined it would be you that would force me to leave.
Those smooth words you spoke soft and calmly in my ear, all along you had damage and chaos sitting near.
Bitting my tongue because the words I have to say are far beyond womanly, but in the back of my mind I feel like I shouldn't care due...

I Had A Conversation With Myself
Yesterday I sat and had a conversation with myself, mostly because I had to deal with my own mental health.
Speaking to me I had to address some deep wounds that were staying surfaced, even though throughout my life I tried to hide them they continued to pop up like wounds refurbished.
My first step is my apology, I apologize for not being there when I needed me.
I apologize for standing mute to myself in the time I should have spoken up, I shouldn't have stumbled over my own self affirmation just to please and fill someone else's cup.
I...

Fake Friends
I'm not bougie nor am I stuck up, I'm just blessed and highly favored from where I've been and how I have come up. Battered and abused in relationships being used, It's a wonder I'm still sane and haven't blown a fuse.
Some say I act funny but naw that's not true, I just sat back and watched how you played me and seen that your friendship and love was untrue.
At times I remain quiet and others I speak my mind, guess it all depends on my mood, day, and time. So many wolves in sheep clothing that call themselves your friend, but stab you in your back and grin in your...

Trust Issues
My mind is going in circles trying to understand, why you play with my emotions and try to break my stand.
In and out of this so called relationship, it's as if I've had an imaginary companionship.
True love isn't supposed to hurt they continue to say, but pain~deceit~lies and deception is always in the way.
True happiness and joy are gone due to the mind games, My heart being played with like it's a wind-up toy
Silencing your phone for your secret messages and phone calls man your actions are getting bold, deleting emails ~messages~ignoring...

Nubian Queen
I want you to undress my mind and have the wisdom to understand that my sisterhood is like no other and is to be treasured with your passion, loyalty and devotion. I want you to explore my inner beauty finding the essence of me so you'll be able to satisfy me in ways only we can dream of and not yet imagine. I want you to enter the walls of a goddess, while tracing the center yes that is me. I want you to create spasms and eruptions of subliminal potions that bind you to I and I to you. I want you to find in me the centered Nubian Queen whose destiny is to find Most of all, I want You and I...

You came and made my grey skies blue as we slow danced in the twilight of the mystic moon
Our Hearts embraced the most heart felt expressions as we collided and released all the painful deceptions
Exhaling letting all the past go because our forever needs to be clear of all the negative no's.
Fixing each other's pieces as if they were fine china that's only used on special occasions, Mending and molding each piece to perfection along side healing the deep abrasions.
Finding our forever love within each other's heart so strong that nothing and no...

Rest In Peace ( To the old me)
Never thought the day would arrive that I would have to say goodbye. My heart feels like it's being twisted and the blood has drained now it's dry.
Soul's on fire cause there's no moisture, My head spinning like it's on a never ending roller coaster. Sitting trying to make sense of it all, Guess God had the final call.
For in Peace now you lay, But in my heart you will forever stay. I'll never forget the trials and tribulations we went through but I've been reborn and made brand new.
I've learned how to speak up and not hold in my pain and because of that...

Emotional Isolation
My mind constantly roams as my soul soaks up the pain like it's a sponge made of absorbed foam.
Pierced pain like a spear through the heart, feels like my life of dreams is falling apart.
Confused~ Misled and even Misunderstood, if I could express my inner feelings trust me I would.
Seems as if destruction has the upper hand, on a bed of burning coils my heart took a land.
I tried to understand the constant mystery of deception, but I keep getting trapped in your words of confession.
Mixed feelings invade my territory leaving a sight of...

Emotional Abuse
Many nights I lay and cry, Many days I ask myself why. Why am I a subject of neglect?
Sleepless nights and dragged out days of wondering why they treat me this way.
Feeling like a lost animal in the forest whose been abandoned, no love, no comfort, no shelter, no one just all alone.
Sometimes thinking and saying why, in the back of my mind just wanting to die.
Tired of all the hurt and all the pain, no more strength my body, my mind and my soul is drained.
Calculating the ups and downs and it seems falling is all I tend to do, is it...
