22/Two-Spirit/American I missed you guys.
I am stuck in the same place At the same pace What's wearing thin is my patience I don't have any time to stay complaisant I need to find my placement Put myself first, not in the basement Some may not know what it meant I however hold no sentiments This is what I have to deal with No one actually making things better for me Instead I bleed My marrow creating blood just abundantly Just to keep the stream from weening Disallowing the life in me to die out

Frustration
I don't know why Can't even begin to understand When I know you're about to kiss me like you want to taste and lick my soul I don't bother to pull back Never wanting you to stop Never wanting you to end Your smell, vibe, taste, sensation Strumming on me Making your favorite notes play your favorite tune Fully clothed yet vulnerablely **** Yearning for our bodies to match Undoing my button brought me back to rational thought We must stop You must stop trying to **** me out of my commitments My commitment to my heart My mind My soul To starve the flesh

Starving
I lost it I lost my poem mojo Thoughts piled higher than an air balloon shaped like a kite I'm scrawling all over the page Just to say what is near the tip of my tongue But...Air And only air is escaping my tongue's grasp So the page ends up balled up Spread into a crumble onto the floor My day rinses and repeats With my sprawlings traveling to the door

Mojo-less
It is far too easy to become as nasty and as evil as our counterparts when they have treated you that way far too long And it worsens, As they deny the aftermath of this treatment to you It's passed down, Turmoil building turmoil, rolling it up to start the base of a snowman It causes the destruction of our hearts, distorts our minds, to casually gloss over our eyes The consequence? Every generation is weaker than the last ***They think they're unpredictable and rambunctious, but they don't realize, That this is controlled too***

Internal conflict (discrimination)
In order to be strong, you have to be weak One does not exist without the other In order to stay strong You must have memerance of your weakness

Growing strength
I give you a grain of rock And I tell you of the highest mountain, containing liquid gold at the entrance of the very tip But you, throwing the grain in my eye Choose not to believe me Instead you choose to spew out the nastiness of your disbelief Even after bluntly letting you know to do research "I'm not gonna do any ******* research" Well dear, stay blind, I hope you fall on a cactus *** first Bet that will open your eyes

Grain of rock
You "Speak your mind," And, "Don't hold your tongue" And, "Right is right" And, "Wrong is wrong" Until, it is **your child** that is involved You make up every excuse While slaining others for the same? Ha Ha Ha Absolute moot. Don't give someone a pill that you can't swallow.

Stop salting your soil Stop ripping your roots Stop grating your grass Start calling a truce Start reeping what you sow Start watering and it'll grow Communicate Appreciate Never hesitate Or the sun will Not elevate

Fate
Pinching pins,                                Up and down my curve Napping needles,                                 In the nape of my knee Sprouting stings,                                Stabbing the span of my soma (body) Swelling sores,                             Has my soma aching Psychologically speaking, I just don't want to be in pain for the rest of my life
