American Woman from VA taking a chance at poetry.
Never from streets So I don’t know what it’s like To fight for every bite To **** for my steals To sell dope for hope Naw I’m not tryin to be mockery I’m just starting to realize that democracy Is just plain Hypocrisy See I’ve never been a fan of the man White, Black, any of them I’m so caught up being an individual That I’ve become delusional How can one day we’re all about supportin’ each other And then the next We’re all vexed in each other’s faces Throwing out words about different races and old time cases Can’t we just erase this? Times are changing But what about our foundation Under the words of our Nation And all things by His creation Have we forgotten about that? I feel like I can’t connect to my neighbor So honoring them doesn’t fit my favor To my left to the right By day by night I feel like I don’t know **** About this: The Election Personifying my Perfection Finding a Connection To myself to us Can Obama STOP the drama? Can they end all this trauma? Of young girls being ***** out of their virginity All these little boys out here actin’ all hard Because they forgot about unity Wishes Broken dishes Fame Not getting’ paid 600 Billion Dollars? All to support the white collar Shit…they must be mad ballers Sittin all high livin fly Not even worrying about how they gon get by Half of ‘em don’t even have to try I want to reach out and hold my brother Let me be his cover Thru the brush fires, quakes, shakes, and floods Not one blood Our bloods Coming together in a place of Brotherhood Shaking every other’s hand Construct a band Of Solidity Of Strength Of Loyalty And With this We cannot foil And the black oil Bleeding into our conscious streams Will find a way to cease If we increase Our bond I just want to be United And be in different States I just want to be One Nation, under God, Indivisible Having the Liberty To give and have Justice For all. God Bless.…I guess…

Final. Complete. Dismiss. End of lies. End of cries. End of days. Dazed. Crazed. Dismayed at the fact before it started It ended. Reprimand my emotions, why don’t you? Watch me fall graciously, gracefully to the concrete A gentle touch ignored Words unacknowledged Differences now similarities Wishes not dreams… Lost in a sea of worry and despair Gazing into your eyes were the highlight And now even in daylight Just as at night It’s dark. Empty. Your pools are now shallow. The depths behind my words were ignored. Final. Complete. Dismiss. Our last kiss My remaining wish Broken. No point in hoping. Crying. I’m fine. This china was built from a man’s hand. Sculpted meant to last. My fragile heart crushed in the fight. As I tried with all my might. Patiently I sat. I waited. I wanted. I tried. And as the night went by, my joy died. I cried. You lied. Final. Complete. Dismiss. How can I miss something I never had? Never dared to dream because it all seemed too pointless. In my eyes, I placed you above the rest. You were my test. No answer key. Just you and me. You had no conquest because there was nothing to contest. What I should have done was confess. Reveal instead of conceal And perhaps these feelings wouldn’t/couldn’t exist and be real. Foolish, I hid them. Giving you parts of me in parts. Writings. Words. Actions. But you are smart. If I were half the woman I deemed myself to be You would see. That with me Is all that you’d need. BUT Finalized. Completed. Dismissed. I am going to miss… you. All the things I longed to do with you. If only you Were you true…to your heart. That part…you seem to ignore. People are so blind to what’s in store That they rather just be comfortable…and take whatever comes to their door Step. Step on my feelings, why don’t you? Can’t you see a real hurting is here? I fear because you have your head so far up your rear You don’t even stop to care. I’m serious and sometimes I feel like you are so full of **** Less than what I envisioned. Less than what I imagined. Not even legit. And yet… Gazing into your eyes were the highlight And even now in daylight Just as at night It’s dark. Empty. Poetry is my way of formulating The decaying Parts of myself. Me lying there with myself spread wide Isn’t a woman of pride but one wishing to hide. Man, that part of me is for no one to take and I gave that to you. I was so true to you. Never tried to play you like a fool. NO rushing. NO nothing. But all this time I was frontin. What I should have done was confess. Reveal instead of conceal And perhaps these feelings wouldn’t/couldn’t exist and be real. I am ******* frustrated. Irritated. Elated with infuriating disbarment Over this….this gotta be some bull **** **** sweetest **** I ever meant. And that’s real. You know what? I finally feel like I know why I don’t feel the thrill anymore I feel like I’ve been dropped and kicked down to the floor Just like before Trying to break free of old habits But I’m sorry That **** doesn’t exist. Chances and fate. Those two should be set up for a date So the two of them can relate and conversate Try to come up with a reason why a sister can’t date A decent man to save her life All this heartache and strife It can’t be that hard. Right? Can’t be final. Can’t be complete. Can’t be dismiss. It can’t be…. It can’t… It won’t be. It will not. Be.

How many times can this moment exist? Drifting from minutes to actions within it Crying, love songs, break up lyrics It’s not physics, it’s his tricks Meaningless nights, getting his kicks… off How many times am I going to play the victim? Girl just leave him alone, get rid of ‘em Easier said than done. Instead of looking at all the wrong, you dwelled on the fun Not once did he say ‘a little romance, intimacy’ Desiring a piece of me Am I delusional? You have no idea how many times I’ve set here and cried Looked out of my window Admired the couples that pass Trying not to feel low But my sad emotions can not be surpass…ed You’re not the first perhaps not even my last The last thing that I’d want is for you to be my past Each of you get me to write again Describing my passionate sins My desire Into a slow burning fire I want this to be my last. Time. Feeling like this. Wish I was a ****** to pain Oblivious to her strain Her persuasive power and gain Like her, I can’t be tamed. I thrive off of a challenge. Each of you very different, but you all left the same imprint My energy should have depleted by now But some how… Because I allow My spirit to take over I feel myself rise above the vindication of omission The oblivion becomes reason And I’m leaving…you.
