POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
LIFE SPAN
When I was 12, I found I had a knack for writing. After one school assignment for a haiku poem had me feeling good because of the teacher's smile. Later that week, I watched Romeo and Juliet. I was inspired, so i raced to gather myself a pen and paper. 15 minutes later, a full page was created full of things i comprehended from that tragic love story. I was teased for what I felt for that poem, so I kept my talent a secret from then on, writing poems about how I hated my social studies class but loved it at the same time, because of one beautiful dark skinned black girl with long braids and...

Fantasies in My Pen
your touch owns my skin, your smile owns my eyes, the words that roll off your tongue owns my ears, but my head owns the the area between your thighs, my thoughts are owned by this pad and pen as my aching wrist spits out stories of our fantasies of premarital sins

some one come up with a name for my poem
The bite marks of where you imprinted your love on my arm in a playful manner have since passed, but the muscle tissue still hurts, but never as much as the muscle i use to love you when we part. I rub there to remind myself your presence wasn't just a dream. hair follicles being torn from their roots from the rough housing we do, as a sign of love. body parts bruised but soon healed by soft kisses. Every kiss still as fresh as the first time you laid your lips to mine in that soft dimmed moment of romance. making the first move because i wasn't man enough. your arms locking around my neck as...

1 for my broken soul. 2 for all my people. 3 for the ones who believe they ain't created equal. I'm dying to be understood but I'm striving to understand you. If you believing you ain't strong enough to make it trust me, I understand you. These niggas on the radio talking bout catching a bad bitch and worrying about who they spending that cash with, but what they really need to do is worry about catching the holy spirit and saving they soul, because truth be told, God's love for humanity can't be measured up in any amount of gold

NOT FINISHED
From the very first moment, I didn't know it but I fell for you,
soon enough, you left me hopeless and broken, what was I to do?
I focused solely on us but you thought my emotions were far from true.
your presence was my enjoyment and we had every component to make
it work but loving you and giving you everything my heart possessed just
wasn't enough.you left my heart stuck like 4 wheels down in the mud.
leaving my metal heart drowning in tears ready to rust. crumbling my
every effort of gaining your love into dust. Hearing...

Baby I'm not sure what you into, but if you cool, I'm pretty sure I can get into it too, and maybe if you like to explore somewhere new, you can get in my mind, let me know exactly what you find. Oh so precious is my time, and my heart is guarded by walls, let me know, are you up for the climb? Because many times before has my heart been seized by crooks and criminals. Individuals with the wrong intentions at heart. They left me without the taste of love and ripped me apart. Now here you come along, tell me, will you leave me to starve?

Fraudulent Love
You telling me you never felt that i loved you cuts deeper than anything those sleeves are trying to hide on your wrist. The stars crackling, love crashing down all around us. The sweet words you spoke are now a vague memory. the memory of you brushing fingertips against my lips is something I've forgotten. The feeling of you forcing me to force you by your hips onto my bed to imprint my love inside you is a feeling i was so familiar with but has now been forgotten. I don't even know where your love went, i try to search for it at the bottom of every bottle and the end of every lit blunt i...

Ravaging Thoughts
I'm the captain of my own fate.
I have too much pride when i'm offered help for my troubles, i deny it and handle it.
The ship that drives my will has crash landed on a desolate planet.
Problem is, that it's in my mind so i'm surely all alone.
So out of touch with the real world, i don't know where my feelings go.
Unclaimed thoughts ravage my mind trying to find their place, shadows of a lost smile so ghost like, it'll never leave a trace.
Yesterday's memories and the thoughts of happiness are too far gone, maybe the wish for something better was too far...

Subdued Pain
I'm sick of walking, so I take flight with a sip of the bottle.
but when its all over I come crashing down towards
the bottom. I think it 'cause of my problems. They say
there are people worst off but they can't feel my pain,
no two people are the same, we all playing to
win, but we playing different games.
I take comfort in the bottle.It soothes all of my
sorrows, when I'm getting blasted,
I can lose myself,and hope for a brighter day in
the tunnel of tomorrow.The best part is, I can
always find solace in another if the comfort in ...

UNTITLED( let my readers name it)
Time is taking too much of its' sweet self to heal these wounds in which it and its' partner in crime love created. The sad sorrow of yesterdays sweet memories and tomorrows bitter agony weigh heavy across the scars of this heart. Thoughts of what love could've been, what love should've been, what love would've been, what loves purpose was in the beginning and what love has turned out to be because of the mess we made with it.

UNTITLED( let my readers name it)
Hide me away in the space where your heart used to be.
I'm freezing to death in this icebox you call a chest cavity.
The below zero weather has turned me cold, and the once
warmed pearly white smile i gave you has turned to stone.
vicious fangs ready to feast on the love you were
never capable of giving me. you took advantage of my chivalry.
You plotted your plan to destroy my heart so brilliantly, and when
I broke down so raw, it seemed like you celebrated so blissfully.
You stripped me of my dignity, and treated my soul how you feel fittingly.
I hide in...

UNTITLED
It seems like nowadays, love is overrated and being hunted down for sex is every female's expectation, but I can't really blame them. It's these new generation of males. Stay with fly snap backs, tight tatts, quick to bust gats, make them cheeks clap, fight over a hoe, but isn't smart enough to fight to keep a good lady. I guess no one ever told them that, that good pussy only exists between the legs of true ladies. Any bitch ass guy can smash hoes, but only real men can help raise babies, and after its' all over, any female can lay it down, but it takes a strong woman to know that even after...
