He Said
He said
He said he'd never leave her lonely
And she believed it.
Unaware of his hidden agenda...
Not realizing that he was nothing more
than a mere pretender.
She opened up everything to him,
including her legs.
He told her that it was over
When she just wished he said
"I love you" instead.
For weeks upon end
The memory just replayed in her head
Hating herself, for ever getting into his bed.
He said that he cared for her, so deeply..
But now she can't get a text back,
so she spends her time...

Sincerely, your mommy.
17.
I was 17, when I found out you existed.
I was 17, doing things...
That I had no business, doing.
I was 17, when I was throwing up my insides..
Not really understanding why
Brushing it off,
like "Alexsa, it's nothing.."
Going from, "No, it can't be.."
To, "Am I buggin?"
For so long I was in denial
Hiding from the truth..
They say it can happen to anyone..
I guess I'm living proof.
And one day my curiosity got the best of me
I bought home a pregnancy test
So I could finally...

I miss you.
My heart aches, at the loss of you.
Condemned to my own sorrow, and thoughts of you.
I never thought I'd feel such pain nor feel so alone.
It brings tears to my eyes, each time I realize you're really gone.
Or how I'll never kiss your cheeks again, or hear your laugh.
All I have left, are memories from our past.
I'll scream to the heavens, until they open up and pour.
I break down, again and again until I gain the strength to pick myself up off of the floor.
I miss you so much, that it hurts my soul.
It cripples my heart to know my children will never know...

Like Dope..
Ambulance sirens ring in my ears
abruptly jerking me into the now..
Only I wake to see it is me in the back,
hooked on ivs and a monitor, but how?
Why?
The last thing I remember is staring into your eyes,
as you held my hand, caressing each of my fingers.
I distinctly remember your scent, and yet still it lingers.
Like dope, I can't get my fill of you.
Always wanting more, greedy for every piece of you.
I look around in hope of you being there, but you're gone.
Where are you now?
I need my fix, and I must admit
your absense has me in a fit....

Infidelity
2:45am
Here I am, again.
Waiting on your return...
And by that, I don't mean home...
I am waiting on the man who promised to love me,
in sickness and in health.
Because he is the man, for whom I yearn.
In these past few weeks, there are some things that I've learned.
That you are not that man, only an impostor.
Because that man would never cheat on his wife,
instead he would be making his marriage prosper.
Finding ruby red lipstick and a woman's scent on your clothing
and the fragrance nor lipstick is my own.
I should have known when you...

All Is Fair
Rules don’t apply,
when it comes to love and war.
Love could make a sane person crazy.
Suicidal thoughts,
like, “I can’t take this anymore!”
You break down these walls,
that you’ve had built up,
feeling secure.
To have those same walls knocked down,
and destroyed by the person you “fell for.”
But that same love,
can give you this high.
A high, that no drug can compare.
That same love,
will have you feel as if, you can walk on air.
Spellbound like some sort of witchcraft,
or maybe even a curse.
To only have your heart ripped...

Realization
Our words, held captive as we try to find strength
to annunciate full sentences.
Limbs heavy, eyes threatened by a peaceful slumber.
Bodies demanding sleep, and who are we to not abide?
Your arms wrapped tightly around me, as you lay by my side.
As you nuzzle into my neck and press into me I find comfort in your skin.
It takes no time to realize, that this is paradise I’m in.
Where you and I exist in a world,
with no outsiders.
Just you and I, no interruptions where we reside.
As I think to myself, this is what it means to be a peace.
Before I know...
to annunciate full sentences.
Limbs heavy, eyes threatened by a peaceful slumber.
Bodies demanding sleep, and who are we to not abide?
Your arms wrapped tightly around me, as you lay by my side.
As you nuzzle into my neck and press into me I find comfort in your skin.
It takes no time to realize, that this is paradise I’m in.
Where you and I exist in a world,
with no outsiders.
Just you and I, no interruptions where we reside.
As I think to myself, this is what it means to be a peace.

Perfectly Fine.
My life was perfectly fine,
until you came along.
With those devilish eyes, and angel face,
that haunts me all day long.
I can’t even think straight, without you invading my thoughts.
Giving me reason to believe I had a chance with you,
making me think I had a shot.
In your eyes, I come a dime a dozen.
Just another notch in your belt.
But you didn’t give a fuck!
Of course, you didn’t care how I felt.
Otherwise you’d call.
I’m willing to bet money, you aren’t even thinking of me at all.
I stopped waiting to hear from you weeks ago.
Yes,...

Just another notch in your belt.
But you didn’t give a fuck!
Of course, you didn’t care how I felt.
Otherwise you’d call.

Sapiosexual
I am a sapiosexual.
I get aroused by,
your intellectual skill.
I get so turned on by your truth,
and what’s real.
I’m like an endless pit,
I can never get my fill.
The way you carry yourself,
with such, wisdom and power.
You shower me with knowledge,
you the rain, me the flower.
Safe to say, you penetrate me mentally.
Always handling me with such care,
you make love to my mind, gently.
So many women, chase you,
but I am so elated that is was me that you picked.
You’re like a drug, and I can’t get enough,
so go ahead,...

Forbidden Fruit
Down in The Garden of Eden,
a secret place, where both
blessings and sins occur.
As where, you and I,
Adam and Eve, some stories
remain untold.
But here I am to bring truth
to light in its purest form.
Watch the truth unfold.
The forbidden fruit,
the ultimate temptation is put to the test.
We both sin,
as we give into our love for the flesh.
And yes, you can have me
in any way you desire.
We make love over and over again,
until we retire.
Not caring if a single soul sees us.
Because we’ve come to this place,
so we...
a secret place, where both
blessings and sins occur.
As where, you and I,
Adam and Eve, some stories
remain untold.
But here I am to bring truth
to light in its purest form.
Watch the truth unfold.
The forbidden fruit,
the ultimate temptation is put to the test.
We both sin,
as we give into our love for the flesh.
And yes, you can have me

We make love over and over again,
