Not a Poet
 Nov 2018 Emily

So, A friend called me a Poet
I said no, I don't think I fit in yet
I'm just like a photographer
I take pictures with my mind
Like a stenographer
I type what my mind says

Like a dam
I let my emotions, thoughts build up
And trickle on the paper
Like a cloud
Mass of condensed words falling on blank pages like precipitation

I use my ink as an outlet for my contemplations
Words as prints of my imaginations
I write to get rid of some thoughts like excretion
Writing, a medium of communication, inspiration, relaxation, meditation and therapy.
Why I write...

The human heart
beats with life
so powerful
it pushes
and pulls
so precious
this life
you call your own
whether to  stay and fight
or turn and run
in a moment
you choose
everything changes
so clearly
so dearly
my love
for you

2AM Story

Evert night at 2 AM
Different poems are written
Different words are scribbled
Different papers are crumpled
But only one thought she had
Yet, word can't help her convey the feelings
"Empty" has much more than herself
"Sad" is not sadder than she thought
"Broken" is more whole than her
"Hurting" ain't just bleeding just like her
And when words can't take the role
It's the blade that play with her
Every cuts has meaning
Everything is her unreleased feeling
Sometimes, words are not enough to tell what we really feel and most words doesn't fit to the emotions we are holding.

The Question

"What do you want do with your life?"
I dont know, Live?
Maybe be a little of a success
Find love?
"Are you a good person?"
Ummm Whats your definition of good person?
And finally
"Who are you?"
....
I dont know
Im a sister
Im a friend
Im a Daughter
Im a different person
around each and every person
How am i supposed to know who i am
When around you im a bit of a attitude teen
Around her im a outgoing, Crazy person thats Happy, with a slight shadow hiding and coming every now and then
Around him Im caring and lovable and an angel with a tint of red
And the shadow still hides Not noticeable except a occasional glimpse
Through the windows of the soul
Around the everyone else Im a shy mess, Clumsy, smart, and weird
Around my parents im happy and occasionally upset and lil depressed, and Rebellious and weird, and silly...
To my brother..Just a sister whos never around but always says she loves him and always means it.

I cant say i know who i am..
Can all this really be me?
Or  is it a new act for every person?
                                                     I dont know anymore

Shed so many tears for my peers too many candle lights so many peers ain't surviving this year, how many ****** got to die before we make a change, terrified by the gunshots little kids get shot blood staining the concrete yellow tape around the neighborhood, it's cold out here in these streets killers got heat murders chargers they can't beat, mother fathers daughters and son all taken by hand guns crying tears wearing rest in peace shirts ain't fun put down the guns, be a man fight with your hands take a stand against police brutality he ain't have no gun what you mean you scared another son done died, another crying mother that need a hug not all black males are thugs

We need to spread love black lives matter, but ****** pull guns at parties everybody scatter, get praised as a badass he ain't the one to **** with you should hear the chatter, songs of your favorite rappers you celebrate the trappers until your cousin or bestfriend get shot I just being real, lost my dad to same deal found his body in the streets he was dead for 2 days thats what happens when you drug deal, a heartless reality I was only 15 when the detective told me a chilling memory that's a fact you ain't know about me,

This year another young life cut short life ain't fair shed so many tears sharing loving memories on a street corners Shed so many tears for my peers living in fear, but seem like some ****** don't care I just being real say a little truth ****** hating you, stop the misuse of your life you only get one, my heart can't take the blood shed so many tears for my peers drowning in tears, Lord we need a rescue shed so many tears this year

It's the same story on the news ain't nothing new I'm terriozed by the fact that I'm getting use to it, recorded violence on the Internet, dear GOD why am I not crying nomore? Getting tired of the violence Lord , my spirit having a riot I can't sleep the lost is too deep in these streets

Shed so many tears
Shed so many tears
People stuck in fear
Tears for my peers

With all my affection let me serenade your heart for a second with some poetry, don't mind me I'm just venting keeping a journal of my flowing thoughts vulnerable is my raw emotions, keeping my mind wide flaunting here in my ocean deep views enjoying the motion, a place I love to go to avoid commotion of life insanity a peice of sanity of my mental health, words that come off my penning that need to be felt keeping my feelings higher than pants and belt or my brain on narcotics, no brakes i'm not seeing red I'm not going to stop it poetry is peace for me

Opinionated and I'm proud about it no floppy mind I'm not a kiss *** these are views mine you ain't got to agree that fine with me, these words hold no ghost writing this is all me writing to a beat poetry in motion don't mind me, jotting down verses when I feel lonely or when not chllin with the homies finding time just enjoying me

Poetry my love fall for you back in high school staining my class notes with some ink from thoughts secretly making love with fine arts, you the reason I always got A's in literature ignoring the teacher lecture, poetry my love can't get enough of you, poetry my love
