An unrequited love
Is a drought.
That seeks the comfort
Of the sun
Dear comet turned thief
Run. I feel no grief
I’m the rib that won’t break
I’m the light the moon fakes
I’m the drought
That forgot she was the sun

I believe I can be free from you
That the memory of you is less a tattoo
More of a bruise
Painful
Not permanent
Yet a memory
still
Is what you held me
And yet still lingered briefly
was the belief I had in being your wife
Your King’s crown
Only a fool’s gold
from Jill Scott’s script-ure
Karma is my favorite *****
and I won’t even have to wish her on you
Your demise
already Materialized
in the form of Your weakness’s
Imprints on me
To be clear
This is about me now
My evolution
almost makes me want to thank your ***** ***
Because What I’ll do with this hurt
Is God’s work
Breaking generational curses as I
Dare to heal in public
The audacity of me
See...You never understood me
Never bothered
You may have taken my first time from me
But you were the only one slaughtered
You’ll never forget
The night you killed your soul
I’m your tattoo...yet stranger
Judgment day will be your toll
&...
For me?
The ampersand runs deep
A magnolia blooms in my womb
No longer A tomb
for all the Ways
yo mama didn’t love you
Will you tell her you hate her?
Once you do
Will you tell her to
“Get that look off your face you act like you never been in pain before”
Look her in the eyes when you do
That’s your thing right?
It wouldn’t be your first time anymore either
You don’t have **** to lose
Gon head...Let that hate sink deeper

There’s a special place
For men who can’t take and
Instead douses her light

I miss you
And I love you
I’m not sure which
should cross my lips first
Ha! What a funny hyperbole
We only text.

Note: I decided to stop writing in a way that suits the style on this platform. I write spoken word. Maybe you’ll hear my voice and flow when you read it ❤️

It’s irkin me
That my daughter will be taught
That Kylie’s lips are real
Only for me to have to re-educate her
It’s irkin me that
Somehow we are back to corsets
But this time it’s our choice....
Is it?
That my value is determined by
The ability for my individuality to
Conform
Where is the peace?
This chaos we’re allowing
Is irkin me

It was unintentional
Everything
Circumstantial at best
Nothing deliberate about the way he loved me
NEVER deliberate
Always...
it just happened
I’ll never forget
That night in bed
I lay wanting
real love
Sheets wrapping
my Screaming Queen
to silence
Spiritual
Suffocation
No...
I’ll forget that ****
But
One thing
I’ll never Forget
Is the last time
I chose to
lay wanting
Any
*******
Thing

Do you love him?
No...i Just...am happy when I see him
But do you love him?
Nah ...i just..Feel his saddness like it's my own
So...You love him
Yes. But like...in a more than friends but less than lover kinda way
You love him.
I dont. I just...i just care deeply. And we've agreed this isn't going anywhere so we're friends with benefits...im not in love yo..fuck..i just-
You just love him
Of course. He's important to me. His peace and the lack thereof is forever on my mind
Bc you love him
BECAUSE as a female I refuse to refuse the more than average king my affection or love as you call it.
Lol...oh really?
Fuck...YES OK I LOVE HIM..but im not "in love" you know?
Genius...bc that makes sense...
We decided we won't!!!. So I'm just loving him from 10000 feet in the air. With no future between us this I'm sure of...
So why love him?
Because God built me this way
No he didnt...you chose to love a man who won't love you back...why.?
Bc I don't love myself and one word texts some how these days feel like a kiss on the forehead.
So you're lonely
Watch your mouth. Im a Queen deprived and this is all I know. I'm just holding him down.
So you're lonely, and lack the discipline needed to only afford love to he who returns it.
Or she
Right.
I just want to love someone with out the ****** caveat. Unencumbered, untailored, unscripted- free, I want to fall in love...for once. Just once... in a spiritual manner I have yet to see or feel.
But you can't.
Why Not?
You're too busy loving your friend.

There's something wrong
When I cannot
recall for which
mass "never again"
my flag glistens at
half mast

Have you ever screamed
until you were out of breath?
And kept screaming
Like getting you to see the want
in my eyes
I thought it would stay like it was
Now I find myself
yelling after the wind

I
I
I
am tired
lost in the world off axis
been stuck
in a rut
watching you stuff your face with earthly desires
fill voids
with imaginary cement
you giggle
as I stand vigil
on eggshells over our relationship
you spat on it
the games...
#you'rehappy
#sad
#mad
#romantic
#mad
#mad
you search for joy that you yourself chose to sacrifice
I do everything
I fight for us
I'd give my life for us
but your (everything but clinical) obsession with
kissing Depression
strolling Pessimism through parks..
while simultaneously
******* Love into physical attraction
I'm tired
You continue to put assimilation on a pedestal
letting it...
dictate pleasures,
still your joy,
define beauty and then lock it away
if I call you baby
will it prove my love for you?
baby...I'm tired
of...
running in the circles of your first emotion
trying to prove my devotion
of...
building you a smile
I'm tired
you'll put me 3ft under in a shallow grave
I'm tired
but...
I love you
what do you need? What's wrong? what can I do baby? what can I do?
Do you see the brighter side is an illusion?
All I see is bright
The grass aint greener
Its just ******* green
We don't need to chase peace
It never leaves
baby
please
see
stop ignoring my needs
feed me
save me
please
