Books Of Rhymes

Awarded wings then ascended to a higher realm
I wanted to scream because I was overwhelmed
You were at the helm of my wholesomeness
A one in a million Queen & you're surely missed

I miss making you laugh and seeing you smile
I miss having your number to be able to dial
I miss having our cherished, quality times
I miss being able to tell you what's on my mind

I find myself frequently reminiscing on days of old
Before my heart was on the brink of becoming cold
I bend but don't fold & make the most of my cards
Many that I've been dealt have made my life hard

I've learned to discard the Jokers & keep the hearts
That've given me unconditional love from the start
Part of me has changed in this game as I've shuffled
The deck in my hands & now my voice's unmuffled

I hustle and flow with these poetic notes & stanzas
Since we can't talk no mo' I had to find the answers
Answers on how to find peace & not lose my mind
Used loose leaf sheets & created books of rhymes
