I am compassion

I am sympathy and remorse

I am long livity
Without the sense of religion

I am the student
I am a women

Broken and lost

Up Goes The Walls
Thinking and thinking until your in sane
Trusting with reason for love or pain
Wisdom, knowledge, logic and lies
Deceiving and pleasing while,
JEHOVAH YOU CRY!
Hypocrites and lovers all play the same
Mr. philosopher what's my name?
Tell me poems to touch my heart
Rainbows and dreams you
past down to me
Lover with a ring you pretend to be
You walk away easy and pleased
My heart starts to race
and I drop to my knees
Tears roll down uncontrolled
and mad
Angry and sad
Tossing and turning
Night...

Wide Eyed and Alive
My eyes are light and my hair is fair
My skin has not felt
the pleasure of the hot sun
Some say an off white porcelain
Other's say its rare
I don't have an autobiography
about my life
But I have stories to tell
I have a gift for words
Although I don't speak well
I have wisdom from mothers
Inlaws and friends
Like Angelou, Soldier and Cecily Tyson
My ancestors are unknown
But my race is clear
Im of porcelain white actresses
And of Africa Queens flair
I dance on my dreams
And trip through out the...

Rest
If there came a time
When the cracks in the streets fell
And I was offered hell
Would i freely go
If the sky darken and the sun burned
Would I then Pray
If the water washed people ashore
And i heard cries of no more
Would i be afraid
If i saw the creators face and asked
Him for his Joy and grace
Then will i die
If i believed what's right is right
But don't have the power
to fight this fight
That's what he would here me say
Trails and tribulations under all
We will be
Im of pure bones and flesh...

Void
A. Boiling that fills your entire soul
Like a feen, crystal meth on a loan
A scratching but an itch you cant find
Lying next to some one dead
The thought of a throbbing head
Increases the urge to rebel
Without consideration of hell
(will I die)
I freeze in a deep zombie like trance
Holding the belt buckle of your pants
An the boiling continues
to fill your Entire soul
A mark of sadness,
an excuse of tiredness
That's old and cold
Touch me! I scream silently
I lye there while sin
easy creeps in...

Dear James
Wake up man!
What's wrong with you?
It's in my head
As Im driving into harlem
He's not dead
Up the elevator rushing in the apt
She sits in a wheel chair
and a recovering blacken eye?
He told me his wife cant walk
I never assumed she had fell
I live in Reality...oh well!
"What happen I bitterly ask his wife"
She responded with no emotion
He took his life?
He's Gone.
I saw my sister and niece walk in the bathroom and came out holy rambling
"He's at peace" her and the wife
"Praise the lord"... (smiles...

The longest way home
Galloping rumbling in my head
Racing horses for some bread
Racing horses end up dead
Oh I remember vividly this I know
Sitting at the track as money flow
Every dollar made my face glow
Flight was her name
she ran faster then light
Stumble to the floor and lost her life
All the money went down the drain
Things from their ain't
never been the same
Daddy arguing with some men
Said one day they'll be back again
All i know is we was
Running for our lives
late one night
And Him laughing saying ...
Racing horses for some bread
Racing horses end up dead
Oh I remember vividly this I know
Sitting at the track as money flow
Every dollar made my face glow
Flight was her name
she ran faster then light
Stumble to the floor and lost her life
All the money went down the drain
Things from their ain't
never been the same
Daddy arguing with some men
Said one day they'll be back again
All i know is we was
Running for our lives
late one night
And Him laughing saying ...

Don't mess this up
Its my last chance,
I cant mess this up
I've accomplished so much
but fail at so much more
God not only knock down walls
he open door after door
And I.....Shut them on purpose
And played in Sin, walked around With a hurtful Grin
Pretending Im content with life
Knowing no one truly wants me
as their wife
Not in this life
He didn't leave me flat on my face or taunt me with
"I told you so's"
or turned his head in disgrace He stretch his arm and hand out to me

Herion
Unlike her cousins
she hides a darker sin
burnt baggy eyes and a devious grin
She has ladders built in her soul
And pulls them out when
she's angry tired and bold
Up.. up..up right in her nose
As she cowardly boast
"Im in control"
Sadly No, it’s a learned condition
So I watch from a distant
As She climbs to her death
Then back to sleep
to regain strength
A drowsy uncomfortable trance
A far away glance
Oh she's up again
searching For hope
Tighter...tighter
as she pulls...
she hides a darker sin

She has ladders built in her soul
And pulls them out when
she's angry tired and bold

Sadly No, it’s a learned condition
So I watch from a distant
As She climbs to her death
Then back to sleep
to regain strength
A drowsy uncomfortable trance
A far away glance
Oh she's up again
searching For hope
Tighter...tighter
as she pulls...

I can see
My eyes are wide open to the world
Im what they call the traveling girl
Some see me as green
because I have questions galore
Some see me as curious
Im Always finding an open door
I don't accept everything
There are somethings
That's tolerated
I live in this world
even tho I hate it
I allow a lot
because imperfection
Surrounds me
Don't need to open my eyes
They were never close
I already know what I know
if you say what it is
Then that's what it be
And if you say what it ain't ...

LOVE POEM

Bruised
His thoughtless words bruises my soul
His boldness, a heart does not hold
Breath taking sword,
ripping remarks
Pealing off the barks
And I swallow them with ease
Im content and it worries me
My soul is no longer restless
There's no where else to run
No pack away savings
so im pretty much done!
His Soul holds no heart
He tries to love and it falls apart
Its so very cold in here
Dying without LOVE
is my biggest fear
Every day a card is delt
And I refused to end the game
Then its my future...
His boldness, a heart does not hold
Breath taking sword,
ripping remarks
Pealing off the barks
And I swallow them with ease
Im content and it worries me
My soul is no longer restless
There's no where else to run
No pack away savings
so im pretty much done!
His Soul holds no heart
He tries to love and it falls apart
Its so very cold in here
Dying without LOVE
is my biggest fear
Every day a card is delt
And I refused to end the game
Then its my future...
