POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
they say words are bullets and we are bleeding out from the pain
sublime kisses,fervent moods, blank pages , personification of pulchritude
Many days she's lost herself in bitterness in just the blink of an eye
Questions of why is it so hard for her to be loved by a decent man
Glancing in the mirror she prays too Aphrodite for beauty over night
Not realizing that her herself is and will always be her number one fan
Taking off her halter top revealing healed scars from wounds of the past
Domestic abuse was never the plan but the love overwhelmed her to stay
If she could go back in time question is if she would give up or make it last
For fear she could have made better choices that frightful...

Remix to drake's song " make me proud "
Yo… I never been the one to blame anybody for the pain that ive caused
Always letting peoples thoughts get the best of me shit i guess I felt lost
Even though the sun don’t shine these days I still burn brighter than a flame
So keep talking shit as I move forward you can call this shit the thomas train
I survive like its 1967 with the chaos on my mind and I feel the pain of my city
I hear em yell blind pig blind pig 456 years later im fightin for peace in reality
Quit bringing up my past yea we all got a story and everybody ain't perfect
Never once felt like...

perplexed hearts with finite minds
A certain pressure rising in the chest almost like an infection
Trading clout for sobriety what would be the reason for drugs
Like me some people feed off music its our own brand of heroin
As liquor and blunts replace the fear of never being good enough
Woman of lachrymose nature become conflicted with empathy
While men are driven wild with their pride and egotistical ambitions
Both genders claiming teamwork while never achieving stability
Caught up in the words of social media losing sight of true intentions
If the heart refuses to believe what the...

gregarious encounters
These days its very hard to find someone to talk with
Social media corrupts as everybody stares into their phone
What happened to nature walks and advice or tips
I guess its better to take care of business and just stay home
Most of us find people fake therefore not wasting our time
Yet I seek a partner to scintillate my intellectual capacity
No point in being a shoulder to lean on if you say im fine
Why give out my heart or waste my breath to calm your reality
The positions we put ourselves in might give someone faith
Somehow though we curse the...

naive frindships
It was you and me running wild through the jungle
Two best friends with the world on our shoulders
No matter what happened we were always humble
Never missed a beat as we continued to grow older
Plenty of arguments but we had each others back
In each others shoes we achieved so many miles
Ride or die shit nobody could ever change that
Funny how im holding on to those memory's now
What happened to you was it the money or the pleasure
Think you got style but really you just lost my respect
What we had was real shit homie call it birds of a...

flowers of adoration
From elegant roses to African daises never given much respect
Fervent thoughts running wild full of imagination with no limits
Cameras express your words as boisterous critters come to fetch
The sweet honey like flavor yet sometimes its hard not to grimace
Stretching out your petals and buds for the food you wish to acquire
Men lie at your feet in hesitation for you are the air we breathe
Quick to catch a glimpse you become a rare sight to admire
Girlfriends to wives to mothers you essentially become our queens
At times the sunlight is engulfed by a...

propitious love
As the sun rises it’s a pleasure to get lost in your eyes
Hugging each other for warmth as we cuddle with kisses
How fortunate I am as you are the drug that gets me high
Entwining your lips with mine making me lost and delirious
How is it you look like Christmas morning on days your sad
As fall temperatures rush to get a taste of your delight
Such perfection right in front of me please make this last
As leaves start to scurry away in the wind like mice
Babygirl I want you to show me what your heart is worth
In return ill show you how my soul can...

your move, my shame, heavens rules , hell's game
Focused on success I must learn to be patient
As I can never let my past blind me with chaos
Making better choices rather than getting faded
Understanding that hard work will always pay off
I feel a certain need to watch the company I keep
Overthinking so much my mind is emotionally drained
Laughing while I suffer I can't let them get to me
I put myself in those positions therefore I take the blame
Guardian angel asking if I will ever learn from my mistakes
While a couple people plot to throw me underneath the bus
Rumors all around yet I don’t...

obsequious love
I feel a certain reason as to why we are here
Though I can't fathom why you chose me
Living life on the edge who could possibly have fear
As our two hearts connect in perfect synchronicity
Up late in the hours of the night searching for passion
How is it two beings could achieve a state of mental peace
You say all men are worthless because they show no affection
Tracing my lips over your curves babygirl this isn't a dream
High off that intoxicating fragrance you are my new drug
Shortened gasp of air from the pleasure while our fingers entwine ...

pernicious break-ups with loquacious encounters vs. truculent matters of love with domestic disasters
To watch two people engulf themselves full of love and hate
Showing an example of how perfection can be achieved
Experiencing the highs and lows struggling to keep the faith
Inch by inch there are no miles just baby steps to our dreams
" I fucking love you " and " all I ever ask is for your attention "
Losing ourselves to the nonsense overreacting way to soon
" I bust my ass at work " and " im not good at affection "
Forgetting to not waste water on gardens that never bloom
So you gave it your all and you just feel its not good enough
As we try to...

Unbearable heat
2:17 in the morning as the woman awakes from her sleep
Feeling light headed she leaves her husbands side for some water
A compelling sensation of intimacy arousing her from her dreams
Wanting to get lost in the unforgivable moment of pleasure and desire
Nudging her husband awake as moans fill the dark yet silent room
Caressing his neck with her kisses as to quiet down his despair
An erection slowly in process getting himself prepared for the mood
Stripping herself every inch of clothing down to her sexy underwear
A flick of his tongue here and there as...
