Life matters:
Drastic measures of sorrow and grief
Life of a black extracted in a sad disbelief
Global reverberation “I can’t breathe…”
Police are savages of a black men’s life
Does this mean it is the blacks’ end of time?
Black life matters… No, Every life matters!
I can’t imagine how the poor soul surrendered in despair
The only wish was just to breath without fighting back
The burial is over but the evil deed set a print in our heart’s cache
Are these the last days the Holy Book prophesized in the book of Thimothy?
Are these the days of...
Life of a black extracted in a sad disbelief
Global reverberation “I can’t breathe…”
Police are savages of a black men’s life

Black life matters… No, Every life matters!
I can’t imagine how the poor soul surrendered in despair

My Diamond
You told me who you were
A diamond
I fell, hard
For all the beauty
Of our love....
You gave me crazy butterflies
Thinking it would last forever
believing all your stupid little lies
The connection was already severed
Just words, I see now
I almost gave everything, up for you
And you let me go like I was nothing
It's a shame
How much of my life I almost gave away
For you....
You hurt me
And you don't even care
But it is your fault, don't you see?
When I opened up ...
A diamond
I fell, hard
For all the beauty
Of our love....
You gave me crazy butterflies
Thinking it would last forever
believing all your stupid little lies
The connection was already severed
Just words, I see now
I almost gave everything, up for you
And you let me go like I was nothing
It's a shame
How much of my life I almost gave away
For you....
You hurt me
And you don't even care
But it is your fault, don't you see?
When I opened up ...

I. The Final Whine
When I thought less and loved more
I was happier.
When I was happier,
my voice flew
without flight feathers.
Singing was easy
and contagious.
I could make fearful men
join in.
I'd love to understand -
no, to control -
the forces that snared me in selfishness.
I want an instant replay
of when, and why, and how
my body became a cage
and I
this beast inside
that wakes when my heart
starts to tiptoe to my throat,
hoping to see the world for a minute -
hoping to escape -
only to...
I was happier.
When I was happier,
my voice flew
without flight feathers.
Singing was easy

I want an instant replay

and I

that wakes when my heart

hoping to see the world for a minute -

I can hear it in your voice
Your smooth sailing
Repeating in my brain
U not wanting to be in the same category
So I threw u an inch
Now u think your running the mile
I'm in my coma
I dwell in sleep
That's where I stay
When my mind creeps
I'll wait and see
Just how this plays out
Probably just because I have no cable....

The Bird Of Hope Is Shot Down
An opportunity pointed out late one night
A glimmer of hope bringing a shining light
Until it's pointed out a dark cloud in the rules
A glimmer of hope bringing a shining light
Until it's pointed out a dark cloud in the rules

Unconditionality
i thought i loved you
unconditionally
i was wrong
i had a condition
that your love for me
be unconditional
when i realized that
giving up my imperfections
was a condition
for your love
i stopped loving you
so much for
unconditionality

Cutthroat
Lost for words but full on emotion
What I convey in the tone
Are you the target or just caught in the cross fire?
Who is my enemy?
As to make a foe or a friend of a stranger
Personality clashes
All eyes on the shell
Heart carefully concealed
You act like your bitterness is original
Take your life out on me if it makes you feel better
I come unglued as you test the boundaries
Prodding as you fake your smile
When all you are is a tear endorsed of your own misery
And I'm trying to manufacture the care
Till you push...

DON QUIXOTE, A COMMON SIGHT
DON QUIXOTE, A COMMON SIGHT
There are few persons who are mighty knights.
The others are too frail and fear the cats,
but all will share the wish to have great strength
that should be proved before they meet their death.
Don Quixote, l see you in most men
who try so hard to build a new Big Ben,
but hunger bites their stomachs and their horse
which gets too weak to trot or the street cross.
Poor man, you have a dream and don't accept
to pass away ere grasping your concept.
You pass with tears which you can never hide ...

I'm Sorry I'm Not The Me You Imagined
What a massive disappointment I must have been
when you realised I'm made of flesh and flaws
did you dream all the things I couldv'e seen
as I fight to just breathe through tooth and claw
How far did I fall, when I hit your ground
when my pedestal toppled on waffer thin faith
did your expectations make breaking sounds
and now you leave, me for another drawing, without a trace
And should I now feel pity, or a hole of shame
for the lies you told yourself about the person I am
where your wishbone grew over your vertebrae ...

Like A Feather Fallen
Separate from her comrades
She cannot soar, like they do
Cruely detached and condemned
To drift Inevitably toward
The darkness of the forest floor
Alone and cold
With bitter sickness
Filtering into damp decay
The leaf litter begins smothering
Precious light, away from her eyes
Awash in melancholy thought
Tendrils of chagrin
Drift through her psyche
Like a noxious smoke and
A soft contempt grows
Until the one day
She will be lifted up
To see the light,...
She cannot soar, like they do
Cruely detached and condemned
To drift Inevitably toward
The darkness of the forest floor
Alone and cold
With bitter sickness
Filtering into damp decay
The leaf litter begins smothering
Precious light, away from her eyes
Awash in melancholy thought
Tendrils of chagrin
Drift through her psyche
Like a noxious smoke and
A soft contempt grows
Until the one day
She will be lifted up
To see the light,...
