POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Someone.
I'm very rarely impacted
Not many people leave a mark on me
Not many people care how I feel
Or really listen when I speak
But you did...
And you dug deep to figure me out
And the things I thought were so subtle
Were obvious when they came out your mouth
And I didn't understand it
I still don't and it bothers me
Not many people get close enough to reach me
But you swooped in and you got to me
And you got inside my head
When I didn't think that anyone could
I thought the curse that I was born with
Was being forever...
Not many people leave a mark on me

And you dug deep to figure me out
And the things I thought were so subtle
Were obvious when they came out your mouth
And I didn't understand it
I still don't and it bothers me
Not many people get close enough to reach me
But you swooped in and you got to me
And you got inside my head
When I didn't think that anyone could
I thought the curse that I was born with

Passions
My whole life, I've been silent
You hear me speak but you've never heard me
Only seek me out when I meditate peacefully
Only came to interrupt and disturb me
Change the direction of the paths I'm walking on
Steer me away from happiness and into the wrong directions
So I develop dependency on you
And begin to mistake your manipulation for affection
Something wicked in your eyes and something sinister in your motives
Clipped my wings so I could never fly
And left me shipwrecked in the ocean
You don't have any real love or devotion
Yet...

Something wicked in your eyes and something sinister in your motives

You don't have any real love or devotion

Revealed
I rarely reveal myself. You see the selfies, all the photos. But you see, you don't see. You don't see my mental, my true emotions, you see what I portray. Like a mirage, you see what you don't really see. Its not there. I'm not there. That's not me...you just see the broken image of what I appear to be. Convinced y'all for so long thats there's nothing to see here. That that Jesus in your toast is really only a grill print. There's no dragon in those clouds. There's no connection within those stars. But, indeed, there is.... You bit into the flesh of Jesus when you ate that toast. That...

Pain in the the absence of it
Sometimes it equal to loving
Sometimes it's the reason for pain and depression
Opposite of caskets and heavens
Running and chasing bread so that it can treat you better
Sometimes people get high off it and sway in breezes like feathers
Sometimes people only experience it shortly
Sometimes it's unappreciated
And then you have those people
Who Wake up everyday and they hate it
You also have those who waste it
Spend their time watching it rot away
Succumbing to nightfall and rarely ever experiencing day.......

Kind of Love
I want the kind of love that I just know. As well as I know my name, as well as I know my address, as well as I know the high school that I graduated from. I want the kind of love that doesn't instill doubt in me or make my heart get a little colder around the edges because my lover keeps me warm. I want the kind of love that keeps me up late nights, smiling, because I am so fortunate to have it. I want the kind of love that becomes the first thing on my mind when I awake. I want the kind of love where when I fall apart, it becomes my cement. I want the kind of forever love that sticks around...

Night With You
I just wanna sit outside and enjoy the night with you
Discussions about the future and life with you
Seeing reflections of the moon as I gaze into your eyes
Inner emotions and chakras left completely satisfied
Its all it takes really...
I'm not too difficult to please
Don't need a date, a movie, just sit and talk to me...
I wanna feel your energy
As the stars gaze upon us
Right now, we're no longer plagued by the things that secretly haunt us...
