24 My skin is brown, my manner is tough, I’ll kill the first mother I see, my life has been rough, I’m awfully bitter these days because my parents were slaves, what do they call me?
With death comes a 6 sense Your scent, your tears   I can feel when I'm all alone in bed When no one is around you come to me Your walk, your cough I can hear when I am lounging around At 8am on a lonely day I accept

Sixth Sense
I am the wind that whistles through the sky I am the flower that so calmly leans on life I am the ocean that flows through & through I am a soul that searches within   I am the strongest bamboo growing    I am the cactus that provides you with water but the same cactus that provides the sharpest spines of warning I am the butterfly that soars beautifully & freely I am the sun that sheds light I am also the dark moon that dims light

I AM
He was smooth but not understanding He was charming but not loyal He was beautiful but a manipulator     I knew this would come to and end I knew I was a fool He was secure but brought my insecurity He was strong inside but not loving He was my first but never mine

He was
for a long time i've waited. waited for my parents to care and come pick me up and save me until the day i realized they weren't worth the wait. since then i've waited for the person i took for granted to just hold and squeeze and say "you are my worth, you are worthy, you defined worth and you showed me to realize what mine is. so for a long time i'll be waiting to see your face . i've waited and hoped that people i surrounded myself with would change. waited for a shift in many hearts. i've waited for so many things for so long and i failed to realize that the one message that was engraved in my head gradually slipped away getting lost into someone else. so again i wait. waiting is painful, exhausting, it is grief. waiting is all that until the day you realize you need not longer wait. so i choose not to wait. For people, for change of hearts,  for saviors, for happiness. it will come to you when the time is right.and you realize the word "waiting" doesn’t  even cross your mind. you've officially realized that you are WORTH more then what you know and what people think you are.

Poem or Feelings?
You were never good for my soul But I knew it along Staying and hoping something would be strong It turned out to be something that I didn't want All along I've asked for simple requests and you showed me it wasn't in your best interest I've given up From confusion, miss understanding, mis leading and constant fights I think it's about time we say or goodbyes I think it’s time I cleanse your skin from mine   I've had enough You were someone that I once wanted That I once thought I could love But I don't think you're quite enough

First Love
What should love feel like? Should I be discouraged? Should I be on edge? Sometimes I feel this should come to an end. Should love be arguments? Should love be insecurity? It's very dangerous if you ask me. Should it be forgiving? Should it be all knowing? Mistakes is a part of love I suppose But often enough you should receive a rose Quite frankly I am not enough But it is as if I can't find someone better? Perhaps I just haven't meet him yet My worth is more than a ****** time. My worth is a lifeline Is it love? Is it like? Is it lust? I'm wrapped up. & I just don't know.

Everyday you come across many people Short, tall, black, white, round, slim, pretty and ugly You learn eventually that these people become gone Gone is many ways Gone towards you Gone towards themselves Spritrualy, mentally, physically, and financially The truth is that these strangers are your friends, your lover, your family. They take you on beautiful strolls to contemplate on life They take a toll on your life They take a hold on your life Accepting the love we think we deserve has hit me the worst Wherever it may be you would like to be accepted At school At home At work Anywhere, acception is key Have you ever wondered why people feel the need to be accepted by someone that truly does not care for their being? It's an indescribable pain Being unaccepted can taunt your innerself and make you believe you cannot live without You're mental and physical frame convinces you to believe that you will never be good enough for anything or anyone Still people chose to hold on and continue to what cannot be The madness of this is that while we try to spread love we have not recieved it back and we can but not from the people we deeply desire for

Accepting
I wonder if you can see Love I wonder if it exists where you do not know Does it just float around from place to place? Or is it beneath you're heart growing in pain? Does Love mean anything to you at all? Does my Love grow through you? I wonder if you know you are loved in every possible way From the soul of your heart to the feet on your toes I wonder if you know Love can change you in every possible way. So.. be free with your Love

Freedom & Love?
I always seem to cry when I'm happy or sad. I cry in the night with no one to hear or see my tears The beautiful dark blue dreamy sky hears The very majestic moon hears Crying is my yell Crying is my voice   Perhaps I cry because I feel a tad bit out of control? But of my own life? How can that be so? I don't know, so I cry I like to cry for the world at times, it gives me a sense of security for the world I cry because the world needs healing I cry because the world needs feeling I am in pain because I cry I cry because I am in pain I cry for the absence of a true love A love that you wouldn't believed exists until you deal with a deep death Crying can relief you Crying can clear your vision Crying can seek you to a better path, it is like how the world becomes so different after rainy rough day

I cry
Do people mean what they do? Is social media the thing to do? Not to me. Dumb myself down for other wannabe's? No, not me. Nothing can stop your growth but yourself. So remember and hold, Tightly hold. Do you mean it when you say what you want to be? I say go for it. Or be a person of "No, Not me"
