32/M/Louisiana From love, equality, diversity, and many thoughts that sit on my brain the best thing I can do is just let them out.
When we hug and part ways I can feel a warmth like I never felt before. When we talk and I look into your eyes at moments I truly feel that I am looking deep down into your core. Im waiting on the day where things for us can flow naturally where we both recover from the past. I think of the day that our lips become one and we can kiss but right now I shy away because I know your feelings are fragile like glass. When the time is right and I kiss you, you will be able to tell that my heart and intentions were true. Until that came though I will continue to try to the be the best friend I can to you.

When We Kiss
Samething that make you laugh can make you cry. Samfiend you put trust in can even lie. Samejob you work can lay you off. Samething you once thought was free can eventually come at a cost. Samepoepole you call family can go missing when times get hard. Same girl you spilled your heart to can one day still away and part

Sames
The friendship we have can't be explained. I seem to smile everytime I see your name. The time we spent as associates was brief but it still came. Now we wishing we can hangout more one of these days. And I dedicate this poem to you because we're so far away But still do your best to check in on me when you find time in your day.

MARS(The Start)
I'm to shy to speak my thoughts and to ashamed to just speak my name. I'm to afraid to be myself, and to caught up in your beauty to speak any game. To afraid of rejections so my true thoughts I start neglecting. I sit back in a distance at time just stunned by you as you stand close to perfection. Right now the time isn't right so I choose to just let you pass. But if faith have it's way we'll run back across each other and the proper words to say to you I will finally get to grasp.

I tried fitting in with them but was told my skin was to dark and that I was not the type. I asked a darker crowd for companionship but was denied because I was told I talk white. In reality they ment proper but I cannot hate my own people for what they don't know. In a country where a letter from Willie Lynch divided us and still stunts our growth. We were deprived of our name, religion, and planted an idea in our head that lighter is better. Features once seen as a sign of ugliness such as big lip or now being imitated and make others jealous. These life scars remain though, that rain from feeling left out seemed to only get wetter. Hoping one day this alienated feeling will dry up but one can only be zealous.

Colored Scars
Just when I thought I seen it all we finally had a chance to cross paths.   No nerves or jitters just good drinks from Superiors and good laughs. Just being able to talk about the past help make the conversation real cool. In the back my mind I know that the women in front of me is going to one day be my jewel. She believed in God and was educated in school. I was lost in her eyes and beauty which turned me from a scholar to a fool. I didn’t want i to leave wished we could’ve stayed all night talking. The drinks started to get to strong and at her face I couldnt stop gawking. I was hoping to get another date before the new year started. In the back of my mind I told myself we’ll one day become cool before hugging and departing

My Heart Dropped
I remember when we first met the year was 2009. Nine years later were still being cool and everything seem fine. You use to live on my brain but I'll lie If I didn't say you will always be in the back of my mind. I'm just glad we can be always be friends and just kick from time to time. Back in the day I never took my shot because you had a crush on another guy. I was feeling you but still just keeping my feelings real shy. I remember writing you a poem and getting one right back. Moments I'll forever cherish.

They can trap your body but never your mind. And as time progress everything will be just fine. Just continue to pray to God and believe in the word. Your moment of freedom is here. Until then I will continue to build up the name.

Stay Focused(Dedicated to my older brother in jail)
I cut myself for the first time and got the rush of my life. Blood went everywhere I was stunned at the sight of the knife. All I felt was pain at first but then it slowly started turning into an adrenaline  rush.   I was tough and just amazed at my slit wrist that I just sat and stared while I kept my words on a silent hush.

Sick Fiction
If I told you I miss you will you take it as game If I told you that you had my heart still would you see me the same. I told you that you're more than good looks but you take it as game. I tried sparking your brain but all of sudden things started to change. Now out of depression you constantly drink and pop pills. You want that feeling of being out of your body to the point your life you don't want to feel. You find yourself laying on your back for the wrong guys. Believing anything they tell you just falling for the lies.
