POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
A Homeless Heart
Her heart is starving for love.
Digging in his eyes for true love.
Realized it's completely empty.
Soul wandering down on misery.
She gave her all now she's a mess.
Never thought she'll be homeless.
Lately, her intuition seems kinda odd.
He took everything from her but God.
She's on the streets of confusion.
Wondering was it love or just an illusion?
Wounded crawling to find some shelter.
Until she found Faith things got better.
Life was falling apart but it fell into place.
All she needed was God his everlasting...
Digging in his eyes for true love.
Realized it's completely empty.
Soul wandering down on misery.
She gave her all now she's a mess.
Never thought she'll be homeless.
Lately, her intuition seems kinda odd.

She's on the streets of confusion.
Wondering was it love or just an illusion?
Wounded crawling to find some shelter.
Until she found Faith things got better.
Life was falling apart but it fell into place.
All she needed was God his everlasting...

Lost
I can't trust anybody like Mission Impossible. Demons chasing me, it's like a train that's unstoppable. This pain I feel brings so much sadness and anger. Deep in depression, I feel like putting one in the chamber. I feel like blowing my brains out so it can be quick. I'm tired of living, everything makes me sick. My happiness abandoned me and I'm alone. I want to be cremated so don't worry about a tombstone. I have lost everything that I have worked so hard for. I lost all my feelings and I'm numb to the core.

Victim
The past keeps slipping in like a draft under a door. Going in and out robbing her happiness to the core. At first, it usually pops up showing up unannounced. But lately, it has been staying a lot and hasn't bounced. It felt like yesterday when she was badly abused. Hospitalized by her ex she woke up confused. It left a deep emotional scar that seems like it'll never heal. Scare to sleep it haunts her dreams like Freddy feels so real. That was over 8 years ago and she still feels his presence. It follows her around the smell of death, sweet dark essence. Tears rolled down her eyes as she lay...

Stable Foundation
Relationships need to have a good strong foundation. So it bears the weight of destruction. Most have been dug into the earth for added stability. It needs to fix each other when things get broken repeatedly. A foundation does more than just hold a relationship above ground. It keeps out negative and insulates against the cold all year round. See the foundation is a combination of honesty and loyalty. They make a strong foundation with communication as the key. The framing is the communication between the both of you. If the communication isn’t there then there is no home to come to. Every...

Care
When I got the call that my mom had a heart attack.
I grab my suitcase and some clothes and begin to pack.
I ain't got no car so I had to get a bus ticket.
I was in so much pain I knew I had to visit.
I didn't know the condition that she was in.
But I was praying to God that she would win.
So I jumped on the bus and headed to SC.
About 3 hrs and a half then I see.
My mom is lying in the hospital bed.
I bend over and kiss her on the forehead.
I ask her how are you feeling,...

Connect
You took my breath away when our lips first touch. Thrust into overdrive my heart grabbed the clutch. Whispers of lust had me going in the wrong direction. Until I look into your eyes I came upon a connection. Conversation sparks up a new burning sensation. We both enjoying each other building a foundation. Two souls making love to new beginnings. Feels like hitting the lottery claiming our winnings. You're a dream that came true I'm on cloud nine. I can't stop looking at you damn you're so fine. Waking up next to you is like winning a championship. A trophy of a beautiful relationship.

Erosion
Lately, your life is cloudy with a chance of rain. It's ok to cry, your tears will wash away the pain. For years the relationship was heading downhill. Because he was making promises he can't fulfill. He was tearin up your mind, body, and soul like an erosion. Your heart is filled with so much sadness and confusion. Women you deserve better it's as simple as that. Not someone that keeps changing your thermostat. One minute you're hot then the next you're cold. See love can't be explained, can't be controlled. Love is not what you say love is what you do. It's a verb to be acted upon no matter...

Listening
I can hear the crickets outside.
It's so quiet and peaceful inside.
It's so much that's on my mind.
My consciousness became blind.
I can hear neurons within my brain.
And blood runnin through my veins.
It feels like my ears are amplified.
And my other senses are intensified.
I'm so deeply absorbed in thinking.
Every noise I hear is like its singing.
Sometimes I wish that I was deaf.
See, life can be foul without a ref.
I'm trying hard to hear God speak.
Because my faith is weary and weak.
Joy is misplaced, I...

Imagination Flies
You're as beautiful as the sunrise
Like I can watch it in your eyes
Baby, I want to feel it in your body
A burning erotic passion in disguise
Your voice is like listening to the waves
Just crashing down upon the shores
I want to feel your hands explore me
While all around us the water pours.
So deep our souls touching each other
I want to feel you between my fingers
I want to feel your tongue on me
To secret places, if you dare!
I want to feel the fire and desire
On this hot steaming night
I want to kiss you so softly ...

To secret places, if you dare!
I want to feel the fire and desire
On this hot steaming night
I want to kiss you so softly ...

Where's A Good Man?
She says a good man is hard to find.
They need a white cane, love is blind.
She needs honesty, loyalty, and consistency.
Not a man that plays games repeatedly.
She's sick and tired of being sick and tired.
They put in half the work they need to be fired.
Her heart has been broken into pieces.
Because men have treated her like feces.
They don't wanna touch her mind, body, and soul.
She feels incomplete; she doesn't feel whole.
She's waiting on God to send her a good man.
Too many put her heart in the trash can. ...

Life
I'm trying my best to get out of this hole.
I can feel the Devil trying to take control.
At times I wanna give up, it's too much.
My heart is broken and I need a crutch.
I'm just trying to do my best every day.
Whenever I shed a tear I begin to pray.
I can't stop reminiscing. about the past.
Before you know it, time went by so fast.
I'm trying my best but it doesn't feel like enough.
Lately, times are hard and my life is rough.

Before you know it, time went by so fast.

Lately, times are hard and my life is rough.

Aromatherapy
Your smile is your best curve my feelings couldn't dodge it. I crashed into your eyes my soul is paralyzed after being hit. My consciousness had undergone spiritual and mental therapy. You created a sense of well-being like the essence of aromatherapy. Massaging love into my heart like a masseuse relieving my fears. For years I had a cast on being faithful I was still wet behind the ears. An immature mind that played games more than an NBA season. I was lying, cheating, and breaking so many hearts without reason. Until I meet you-you have changed my life you are my rehab. Wanting to do better...
