Smile
Brenda Nalugo Sep 2018
Just because I smile doesn't mean I don't hurt
  I got issues
  Got demons to battle
   Skeletons to hide
So just because I smile doesn't mean  am alright

Picture perfect, I was taught to always keep it picture perfect,
It hurts when you can tell nobody about the magma boiling on your inside
When every body sees perfection yet your constantly breaking down

Behind closed doors it all dawns on me
The smile I take off like a piece of jewelry
Then the darkness begins
I begin to battle
Battle with the truth

If
Brenda Nalugo Sep 2018
If
If you treat me right
       I promise
If you love me as much as am willing to love you
       I guarantee
To love you till I die
To fall for you daily
Till my last breath...I promise to be yours
I guarantee you my in unconditional love
     But
Only if....

Want you
Brenda Nalugo Sep 2018
I want to lose myself
I want to melt in your arms and dream
To be yours and you mine
I want this to be so bad
But not bad enough
Cause I want to want you yet I want someone else

I know you would treat me better,
But am so foolishly in love with a man who can't treat me right
He beats me -you would caress me but I still want him

Guess am a good girl
So into this bad guy with his bad ways
I want him
Even when I want to want you

Angry & Sad
Brenda Nalugo Sep 2018
You ask why I write angry poetry
Why my my words flow sadly!
Well,I can't help it
My blood is boiling, my heart aching
My surroundings are dark
So my imagination has been invaded.. ..someone show the happy
Bring me light

I have walked
Brenda Nalugo Sep 2018
I have walked on glass
On the softest petals
On thorns
On fire.
I have walked all walks of life

To my beautiful
Brenda Nalugo Sep 2018
I know that days passed,
Days became weeks
And weeks bore months
But to you my beautiful,
My heart still belongs

When you left me for another man,
Oh how it hurt ,
Because I thought we had forever but I was wrong
But still to you my beautiful my all belongs

So if he hurts you
Turn to me
To you my beautiful my arms will always be open
Because you are my only beautiful love

— The End —
