Artsitist, trendy and full of life poet who always opt not to see the box and be. My works are provocative, fresh and young, informative , political you could say I am the awakening of our society. Social awareness and social building are my ultimate goal and this will be achieved by exploring and coming to understand stereotypes, religion, sex, love.... actually I question everything! My stage performances are guided by the perfected connection i have with the audience as i enchant them lyrically through a journey of beautiful words. Poetry is healing and that is what my work is about.
I’m trying to numb the intensity of this prayer
didn’t make it to kneeling cuz I doubt I believe in this
pasts experiences never equip me for this
love was meant to be kind not bruising so anger replaced sanity
as I denied its existence in me
then hate became an ultimatum to my soul
Love has not let me down
A person did
We had different ideas of love got confused somewhere in-between
How can you ask me to go back to that cold place alone
Where self is denied cuz pain occupies
He loved me only to hate me I don’t know how to justify it
Cuz is in the doing not in the things you say
So resentment of them became a state of mind
Jumping to conclusions cuz I anticipated a lie
Father love did not fit no where
Show me a map where renegades
Authorize a path for the wounded soldiers of love, the helpless, the broken and those letting go
Cuz love still remains kind and unchanging
Love still protects and unhurting
Love still remains love
BRING ME BACK AT LOVE’S DOOR
I’ll form a fist so tight for the sake of my healing I’ll knock till my knuckles bleed come out love I’m knocking , I’m kneeling, I’m prepared to believe in you ,existing
Now that I found my revelation that love still remains kind and unchanging
Love still protects and unhurting
Love still remains love cuz I believe that love did not let me down only a person did.
