Your head pounds
In sync with
Your heartbeat
The solitude surrounds
You like
A glove
Waves are crashing
Into your soul
Your left
With
No sight
The silence is so
Loud
The sun has
Left
Only darkness remains
There you stand
Burned
Your turning into
Dust
The wind
Carries you in
A relentless spiral
With no
Destination
You remain lost
With no
Memory of life

A prideful man would chase his own *** before he would chase yours
No matter the cost, his lust for false righteousness exceeds the sum of innocence which surrounds him
It dissolves time and love and stores it deep into the space only he knows
Casting out any attempt of making things right, even as a child calls him daddy, it's not enough
It's
Not
Enough
The pain he puts forth is his fuel to spread hate fullness in innocence
Having no regard of the destruction he's caused in the eyes of the one's who loved him
Like broken glass, the aftermath is devastating
The tears have summoned a raging flood God can't stop
A prideful man will stand tall during it all and claim innocence
While the one's who loved him are caught and swept away

Staring into an empty space filled
With wonder
That reaches for the
Moon
With an absent
Ground
Laughing at depressions
Dismay of shattered
Dreams doomed
By suicidal
Thoughts
And
Sleepless nights
Loving the one's who
Abandoned
Your exsistance
Each exhausting day
Is harder to get through
Then the one before
Yet you do it all over
Again
Because who else
Will
Giving credit to your
Biological makers
Who raised your
Downfall
And encouraged your
Feelings of inadequacy
Missing pieces of a broken
Home are all you
Have
Left
To carry to your
Grave
Somehow missing the
Point of why
You
Were
Here

"As a young lost little girl
Didn't look like nobody
Difference of skin color
Different beliefs
Wished for a future to the Sky's
Limit
But was told I wasn't good
Enough
Wasn't pretty enough
Hair is to dark
My race is *****
In an environment of pales
I never had a chance
Was always portrayed in a funny
Way
Nobody spoke to me, I literally wasn't
There
Invisible as the black sheep
In an all white field
Never knew what self esteem
Was, never heard things like
Good job or I'm proud of you
The mud below my bare feet
Is where my place was
Never remember holding
My head up, I was alone
Nobody to fight for
Me
Smoke filled homes almost
Took my life before i even
Had a chance to grow
Up
Everything was always hazy
I never knew what was to come
Or if I would see another day
Falling into a deep dark place
That has took
Me down in my
Adult days
Watching every minute on
The clock roll
By
Looking at movies over
And over praying for some
Rest
But it rarely comes
Its become a stranger
My best friend
Consuming my way of
Life
Living is like being in
Prision
Same walls every day
My world is minute,
Microscopic you might
Say
I'm falling fast
Pain has caught me now
Stabbing me, trapping me
Holding me hostage
But the price is to high
For freedom
Walking has become a
Luxury
Eating is like a
Sin
My room has become my
Home
All the other rooms have
Disapeared
To the right I allow
Myself to see a small
Piece of light
Sometimes i feel like I've already
Walked into the
Light"

Angels and lies
We don't know for whom the bell Tolls
Just that angels are
Godly
And
Lies are
Devilish
Drugs vanish the pain
When everything
Flips
You're stripped naked
On the front
Page
Ridiculed and crucified
Angels
And
Lies...
Remains my sanctuary
Inside our minds
We remain
Sick
Misunderstood
And
Liar's
Yet
Women are
Angels they say
Let me rephrase
It's the illusion in which
Women are angels
Only
To the right
Faces
In all the wrong
Places
We belong to no one
Place or person
But the behavior
Of a woman
Never
Fades
In the eyes of the
Beholder
Somehow we remain in
The spotlight for only
Certain
Reasons
Which we can never
Shake
The power of feminism
Is
Amazing
Angels and lies
Go against us
We remain
Powerless
When certain allegations
Are made
Angels
And
Lies
Befriend one another
Creating the identity
Of
Innocence
And still you hear
Them say we were
Born
Sick
And unknowing to
Society's
Views
Of
Angels and lies

Now that you sleep with wings
my tears fall remembering...
your voice returns from the past
and there you are again...
I say goodbye with a heavy heart
and days ahead of me, to march
with your memory...
i say farewell... and bless you
as you float above the world
less gone...

*Laughing mockingly at
Dead leaves
As the thunder
Rolls in
Good has been lost
And evil
Prevails
In stone hearts
The unkind leads
All known things into
Hell
Darkness greets the
Ignorance
Behind comatose
Eyes
And the mind is
Victorious
The world is
In mourning
As hope is lost
The end of the world
Never happens
Naturally
It ends prematurely
At greeds
Hands*

*The surrender of
What can't be
Seen
Is at your
Fingertips
It's spineless
Body crawls into
All you are
Lurking at the
Places
Hidden
In your blank
Stare
Eyes of a
Haunted
Hallway
Your alone but always
Accompanied by
Shadows along
The walls
Which you
Frequent
During long
Nights
The fools who approach
Hoping for something
Cheap
Catch the
queens
Scolding
Tongue
Wearing the witch
Hat
Proudly
Never looking back
To the pain
That transformed
You
Fast and furious
Hands
Saved your
Life*

*Oceanic waves parting the
Rolling clouds
Waging war against
All that's
Well
Some parts of you
Are gone
And thats
Home
The place in which You
Reside
Disguised as a
Chameleon
The world will
Never
Know
What lies beneath
Sore eyes
Silence comsumes the
Blind and you
Hear
Everything
The midnight cries
Scream in the
night
As the world
Sleeps
A void which
Cannot be filled*

*Eyes as bright as the
Suns
Rays
The voice of an
Angel
Pure as spring water
Her spirit carried
For miles
She always seen the
Good in everything
Even in trying
Times
Her laughter made
Everything
Ok
She was wise and had
Much to teach
Always guiding everyone
In God's path
She loved her family
With everything she
Had
And always stood by
Them
No matter what
She truly was a little
Piece of heaven
On earth
The lord has now
Called her
Home
And she wants us
Not to weep
But to celebrate her
Memory as she was
On earth
It's hard to say
Goodbye
But we must let
Her go to
Rest in peace
With the
Lord*
