I Can't
Essa Freedom May 2015
I don't care what people say
This time I just can't
I know I should but....
I can't let him go

Your Power
Essa Freedom Apr 2015
Today while you write
Please think about something
You are writing  your history
For tomorrow is your future
Don't give others the pen
That is your power
Don't let others decide
What your life should be
That's up to you
Others don't define it

Why I Write

I do not write to entertain
I do not write to appeases society
I do not write to show someone how I feel
I do not write to make a point
**I only wright to open my heart and mind so i my inspire someone like I was

One Week
Essa Freedom Apr 2015
It's been one week
One no good week

So many thing went wrong
Nothing went my way

My heart was broke
Yet he still lives there

My brother is being sent away again
Last time it was a year over seas

All I can say is
Welcome to **Life
Life broke gone lost-love
Essa Freedom Feb 2019
He was burning to ask the question
We sat down and talked
A nice dinner, but he was sweating the whole time.
Dessert came and so did a ring.
Right there in the cold desert
Cold like my answer would be.
Down on one knee
He spoke four words
With so many people around.
Did he really love me?
I didn't want to be another trophy
Trapped
"No"
one-ring love lost loss fear wedding nervous  one ring scared no

Walls of Society
Essa Freedom Oct 2014
I see you every day.
I say nothing to  you.
Even if I did you would not hear me.
My love can not travel though the space.
The space society has made to keep us apart.
My heart shatters when i see her with you.
Yet, when I speak you can not hear me..
You can not see me.
Why must society keep us so far?
My heart only has room for you.
When will you come?

My Light
Essa Freedom Oct 2014
My light is you
You keep my feet on the ground and my head in the air
I wish i could fill your heart
as you do mine
I want your heart to be mine
If it was i would treat it with care
I would hold it tight
I would never let it go
love light heart

All Over Again
Essa Freedom Jan 2019
They took him once
and soon again

To some unknown land
yet to be forsaken

So long he was gone
to bring so-called peace

A war lasting way to long
in a country that never wanted us there

How long will they take him
this time around

One Year?
Maybe 2?
Forever?

I Want To
Essa Freedom Nov 2014
I want to tell you
To tell you the truth
To tell you just three little word
But it so hard
I want to say it
But
I don't know if you'd say it back?
Here I go
                                                              ­                **I love you

— The End —
