POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I let my storys speaks for me...
Save me
Chains binding me
With every attempt to escape
The chains tighten to keep me down
These demons fill my empty purpose
With ways to end me
Tears filled my soul
Screams going unheard
Save me please
Save me from these suicidal thoughts
That too often I visit from this cold room
Ready to send me to my final doom
Whispers from every direction
do it
it will take away all your pain
Beretta Nano cocked and load
Ready to soothe the pain
Save me please
From these thoughts
Because they are clouding my better judgement
Save...

Screams going unheard
Save me please
Save me from these suicidal thoughts

Ready to send me to my final doom
Whispers from every direction
do it
it will take away all your pain
Beretta Nano cocked and load
Ready to soothe the pain
Save me please
From these thoughts
Because they are clouding my better judgement

You are gonna miss me when I am gone
I watched you as you walked out of my life
It took everything left in me
and I tried to keep it together that night
But everything about that moment
just didn't seem right
It's wasn't right at all
But my pride let you go
And my pride at this very moment let me alone
As I watched my heart being ripped from my chest
And that was the moment when I realized
What little residual of love I had died
Why does this hurt so bad
I never felt a hurt quite like this
Not even sure what I am suppose to do
How do I pick up the pieces of a broken heart...
It took everything left in me

As I watched my heart being ripped from my chest
And that was the moment when I realized

Why does this hurt so bad
I never felt a hurt quite like this
Not even sure what I am suppose to do
How do I pick up the pieces of a broken heart...

Comfortable in my Space
It's hard to let you roam freely,
In my comfort zone that I occupy so frequently,
There is safety in my alone time,
Where no one else seems to understand ME,
This is my place I go to escape life's stresses,
Place in silence I can cry,
scream,
dream,
and count life's blessing,
I don't let you in, because there are dark places that I am not ready to let you witness,
And I am afraid,
Afraid that those dark places will consume the love that we share,
Even if you think it is unfair,
I can not let you go there
To this empty space that I...

This can't be it
Is this it?
Can this be life?
Where another person can tear thru your skin
Turn around and stitch you up
Only to do the same shit again
Damn this thing called life is tough
Man I wasn't ready!
This can't be it....
Oh suck it up is what they tell us
But nah, We can't because this here
THIS RIGHT HERE isn't LIFE
When do we begin to live?
When can we finally breath?
We are tired of braking
It's finally time we accelerate
And start living
But we only exist
We have not been seen
We are not able to be heard
We can't...

I say I can't give you all of what you want,
never would say that I can because it all would be a front,
and if a man says that he can they are all lies,
but I can show you that you are mines and I am yours,
if given the chance to prove self.
I can't give you all of me because there is only parts of me left,
so this is all that I have to offer
Pieces of a glass heart that's shattered,
Help me pick them up and piece together again,
All I want is to be whole again..

Racially Profiled
A young black man with a voice,
I would hope that when I speak you listen,
What's going on people?
Is there something in the legal system that we all are missing?,
When did the color of a persons skin become illegal,
People are scare to even look in the direction of the police,
Because just as soon as he tells you to put your hands up the situation may turn lethal,
Someone please help me to see the bigger picture,
A man loses his life trying to make a dollar out of 15 cent,
He tells you I can't breath!,
So you proceed to choke the life from...

Spontaneous ass
Fulfilling all your fantasizes
In the back seat of this Audi
Wit yo spontaneous ass
You know what that does to me
Got it hot as hell in this back seat
Whispering your love song in my ear
While playing with my meat
Spontaneous ass
You know what that does to me
R. Kelly fills the cabin speaking the truth
Laying back while your toes pressed up against this roof
Head pin to the door with no where to go
Dicking you deep
Pussy so good I dont want to pull out
But you whispered the solution to that in my ear ...

Who I am.....
It's like standing in the mirror,
Looking at a face so familiar,
Spiting image,
Of a man who stands in front of me,
Trapped in his shadow,
It's like....
A prisoner to the lifestyle
Or
A blessing that is cursed,
Praying to be set free,
Desperately. .
Taking bites out of a woman's forbidden fruit,
Trying to re live my youth,
Thru these countless legs I spread,
In search of my own truth,
but that doesn't help so what is my truth
When all else failed I turn to drug,
Hoping...

Skeptical I Love Yous
Can some one answer what is the words I love you is used for,
Now a day people not using for the right reasons anymore,
Hard to ignore when everyone is saying it,
Dudes using it to get the pussy,
Chicks using it to get the dick,
So when the next person genuinely tell you I love you,
You not for sure if you should believe it,
Skeptical I love yous
Making it hard for the genuine nigga
To try the hand at love

Continuation of War
My body left
But the war rages on
Battling these feelings slowly defeating myself
All new levels of stress
Thinking about killing myself
What would it solve
I am way pass the thoughts of killing myself
My life hurts me
Deep puncture wounds to the soul of this man
Who stands strong on the outside
But on the inside voices telling the outside to stop the lies
Realized my life in my eyes
is not the reality of what is shown thru these eyes
I know a man is not suppose to cry
But I can not help the tears pooling in my eyes ...
