When the night stays awake, I’m usually lost within my mind
trying to place things together & living in the past of time
Thinking about my mistakes wishing I could go back
to redo my actions all over again cause I know karma comes back
full force & that effect weighs heavy on my mental
but reading minds or emotions isn’t exactly fundamental
I toss & turn in my bed getting up every 5 minutes to clear my head
with my music blasting thru the air & my phone full of messages unread
because I get into my feelings then write my emotions in my diary
then send em off to those who either motivated or inspired me
I’m more haunted by my thoughts & I’m running away from regrets
pacing back & forth giving thanks to God whenever I feel blessed
When the night stays awake, the morning tends to snooze longer
but I’m so eager for the next chapter so I become a stalker
Sleep can’t find me, my thoughts keep me hidden within my matrix
causing my anxiety to rush when my mind tends to play tricks

You always look for beauty but  ignore the main view

You see this image every day but treat it as if it's see through

I’ve said it plenty of times but it has yet to click to you

Sure it has its fair share of scars & scratches but its beauty shines thru

& I’m trying to inspire that confidence to reveal that has yet to debut

Hidden within plain sight but only certain eyes knows it’s true

even if you disagreed, they keep trying to convince you

If you’re still confused or lost on where beauty exist while following along

then go back & read the 1st word of this poem

I remember the comfort of your kiss
the warmness of your hugs
a magical presence filled with such bliss
& the anticipation of overdosing on this new drug

I remember that first vibe, watching the sunset
holding you in my arms while you fell asleep
from the kisses I blessed with after being so upset
with life & everything else making you feel so weak

I remember the sound of your voice & the feeling of your touch
thinking I was in heaven only to realize it was you holding me
oh how I miss that so much
falling in love with the King I am that your love always showed me
And as time flies by, I reminisce on the view of your eyes
reminding me of the clear blue sea or even the art of a southern evening sky
with or without you, the memories will forever be amazing
-Poetic Venom

I am Alone, I am Invisible
far from innocent but not a criminal
I stand in the room with everyone else
but I fade to darkness knowing all I have is myself
We’re supposed to be a family but where’s the love
especially when everyone wants to be perfect & quickly to judge
I never come around cause I don’t fit in
I gave up that battle, I’m just not shaped to win
I’m unique from the rest & it’s scary to see
ever since I was born, my family has isolated me
I never speak a word but my presence speaks clear
the love is tainted but the pain is severe
- Poetic Venom

We were meant to be, meant to be free
free from each other, free to love someone else
in the end, it’s just me
standing here alone questioning myself
As I say goodbye to that star in the sky
I ask why I cry or why I wasn’t meant to see it fly
so much time wasted, why did I still try
when it died years ago before my very eye
We’re meant to fall, fall right out of love
no longer friends going our separate ways
you’re happy with another lover
while I’m just here crying away my days
- Poetic Venom

We never dated yet I fell in love
I played the fool, why do fools fall in love
I was stuck in stupid, your vibe was the glue
& sadly enough, I never knew you
Addicted to your smile & hooked on your presence
didn’t pray for your approach but you became that blessing
I waited years to be your everything, just to walk away
crying & broken is how I spent these past few days
You broke my heart in the worst way but forever I wish you greatness
I fell in love with a stranger who was so faithless
- Poetic Venom

I was asked once on why I love to write so much
& I answered saying that you don’t how impactful words can touch
the souls of those that you’ve never met a day in your life
especially those who feel like a lost cause & feel the need to give up on life
I write for the pain, I write for the hurt, I write for the deep thoughts
that speak to the rain whenever the heart feels like it’s being haunt
I write for those who don’t have anyone else to turn to
crying out for help but yet they remain see through
I write for the women of life who give so much but get so little
Love & War with their hearts being dead smack in the middle
I write for the teens battling depression that seek self harm
you know the ones referred to as “troubled” or “sick” with cuts on their arm
I write for myself for the thoughts in mind that can’t be said out loud
I’m a gifted poet with a rare touch & I’m **** proud
Poetry is Life, Poetry is Passion, Poetry is Freedom, Poetry is Therapy
I could’ve called it quits a long time ago but poetry is the one thing that’s saved me
