I haven't written in awhile.
Didn't realize that till today.
I think when I numbed the pain,
I must have numbed myself away.
Is losing your pain worth losing your self?

Pensai
Alone, cold,
Misunderstood.
Fighting a battle that began before our conception.
Cursed. The physical manifestation of ones fathers mistake.
Emotions removed, confiscated. No longer relevant.
Useless.
Sympathy lost when love failed us.
Patience is the only retribution.
The endangered struggling black father.
On the verge of self destruction.
Restricted from the love of his own life force.
With no direction. No support.
Intense emotions personified by a series of precise phrases representing static progress and consistent negligence.
Our efforts are never enough.
Our words mean nothing.
Our concerns, suppressed.
Our worries, neglected.
Our respect, vaporized.
Our life. Devalued.
The endangered species

The struggling black father...
Depression can be detrimental to a Black Father determined to defy history. Men struggle. Men fail. Sometimes life deals us a ****** hand that takes time to play through. But society has no patience for a man in the process of bettering himself. Especially a father....

This world only filled with love
All the Ravens turning into white doves

Could you imagine

Giving up your possessions
If everyone lived on God's lessons

Could you imagine

That there was no reason to **** for


Could you imagine

If there was acceptance
Of all races
Of all the different faces

Could you imagine

If there was no war
If there was no rich nor poor

Could you imagine

If we lived for the moment
And
Hearts were never broken

Could you imagine

If we never had to hear screams
If you could never dream

Could you imagine

If there was no lies
And
If you could trust the look in people's eyes

Could you imagine


Could you imagine


The blanks are for you
