Ghetto Reality
day light breaks across the ghetto and all is well
we go to school and laugh cuss scream and yell
study hard and lunch time comes
now is the time for us to have some fun
back to class and into the books
bell rings
school is done
we might be off the hook
walk down the block and u see the lil homies slangin dope
you got on some fresh shit...
he pulls a gun & points it to your head
"Nigga...give me ya shoes and coat or else ya ass is dead!"
hurry home do our homework and head out to play
we gotta get all the fun we...

Solitude
Life is full of struggles and sometimes a bitch.
This dam coke habit is getting hard to kick.
Got my mind playing tricks or so I think.
Can't explain why i'm standing on this corner
trying to get my next fix.
Horns blow and i'm half dressed.
We haggle over prices for pleasure...
I ask for $10 & I got $5...
caused for time I am pressed.
The deed is done
and my high is near.
My mind is filled with greed
and no thoughts of fear.
As my high ends,
I look down at my arm and what do I see...
My life represented...

Love Letter
Dear Lover,
I saw you today & I begin to think of things of the past.
Why is that today you look so sad?
I thought back to the person that laughed at life and all that it brought forth.
Remember how we used to take walks in the rain in the middle of the night?
Or go for ice cream late night, just because?
When did you let life wear you down?
Was it when you met fool #1.
Fool #1 had your mind going.
Told you that I didn't matter anymore that you could do better without me.
You pushed me aside and said kick back and enjoy the ride....

Arrogant
I’m the shit!
Nice way to start this poem huh?
5’5 with dark brown eyes
That looks deeper than most care to pry
Personality that can brighten the darkest day
Pretty ass smile bright as the Milky Way
Intelligent and down to earth
I’m an ebony goodness that knows her worth
Yea I know I’m the shit!
Pleasant and quiet on any given day
That is until drama steps my way
Attitude unfurled like that of hurricane Katrina
Leaving you awe and wonderment
Go ahead…taste my dust
Brothas step to me with plenty of game
And when...
