I spent my life
trying to please my family

It didn't work

I spent my life trying to
Please others


I spent my life......
Be yourself

I just want to write a poem no one ever thought of writing
It must have the same effects as walking on the moon
It must trend faster than a meteor as it  hurdles through cyber space

I refused to love any man, who dislikes my poetry,
My man must support my passion ..
not only the warmth of my body
but the passion within this poetess, my secretive mind he must be able to balance:
Without wondering why a woman like me is so naturally secretive
I am always embracing the dark side of my creativity
Dropping little hints here and there throughout the years,

Sidney   J. Harris once said something that left pondering thoughts
He said “When he hears somebody sighs,
'Life is hard,' he’s always tempted to ask them, 'Compared to what?'
I would simply say dog-gone it: Compared to struggling poets whose tries to make a living as a writer

While an upcoming rapper like Chief Keef
signed a several-million dollar deal
with offending lyrics in today music industries:

I just want to write a poem no one ever thought of writing,
With lots of intense emotion bursting through each line:
Because a poem can’t exist without a poet's multiple voices
and most of all his divine missions

Dreamer
The crowd fades away
As chords in every melody
Rings in our ears,
And shivers downs in our body
It vibrates in every muscle
A musical fusion
Almost everything didn’t matter
It’s you, me and the beating rhythm
The graceful posture
The sway of every gesture
It’s a motion adventure.

Feeling the adrenaline pulsing through
Pervading the entity
Beating rhythm pounding, it electrifies the body
into graceful art, emancipating the sound of the music
Captivating the mind, liberating the young, reckless soul
covertly hidden inside an indifferent exterior

A freeing beauty
of movement to the rhythm
A therapy to the mind and body.
Dancing to the music,
feeling every tune
every beat
every breath of every movement,
with Explosions of Euphoria
how about that! :) I'm so proud of us, we did it! I'm having that totally awesome post-poem feeling you know? So incredibly honored to be working with you, dear Pax :) We did a fantastic job, woot woot! (((hug))))

Italic words are words I need more of a reminder on.
I encourage all of you to choose a positive word (or multiple) from each letter of the alphabet and write it down. Remind yourself every day what a remarkable person you are.
Love yourself. <3

fools come, fools go
incognito

poets cry and lovers dream
incognito

children die and soldiers scream
incognito

takers take, givers give
good men lie, bad men try
teachers teach, some learn
preachers preach, some turn

fools they come, fools they go
incognito

Once this world was a better place,
Now filled with lots of disgrace
So quick to hide behind their screen,
Bashing,slashing, and gossiping
So you thought she was truly your friend,
Now she'll do anything just to win
Told all of your secrets to any who gave their ear,
Spoke to them your stories,worries, and fear
Remember that there are still good friends,
Will treat you like a princess until this world ends
Don't let it trouble you,
I'll hold your hand till you make it through

why a poet?
because a poet
hears the words
which sing the
purest harmonies
because a poet
paints their portraits
in pastels
of phrases
because a poet
dances their agonies
into leaps of faith
and pirouettes
of passion
because a poet
sees
the beauty
in the commonplace
and captures
the moment
in a snapshot
of ink and white
because a bloodless world
cuts itself
a thousand times

and the poet bleeds
For my friends here and around the world on World Poetry Day.

I surrender in your name,
Never expected glory, or fame
I give it all to you my Lord,
You heal the sick better than any bard
No more sorrow,guilt,lies, or shame,
You set me free from any blame
You said trust in me and you shall gain,
Anything you ask for in my name
Believe in the savior Jesus Christ,
For his suffering was extremely priced
Thank you Lord for giving your life,
Sorry you endured the worlds heaviest knife

From darkness warmth I felt the waves
Heard this heartbeat soothing paves
Flipping around we began to share
This life created here I was felt the air

There he was here with me
In these troubles pain with thee
Felt the burn stabbing wound
Soon it's over through years of this
Took me out and placed me safe

Trials not yet complete
Many nights with no sleep
Although he comforted I was scared
Dreams untold but into his arms he held

Now after all these years
Found the light filled with cheers
Knew right off he was the one
Held me close helped carry on

Brought me joy and gave me peace
New life grew inside of me
Now know the purpose of this life
To give much love protect and raise
Cherish these moments with no strife

Trials not over faced more pain
Crashing on me like huge waves
Days with torment as a friend
Not ones you want but can't escape

Shocking torment these demons follow
Wrestling fighting screaming crying
Filled with anger curled up tight
Uuugh so many wrestless nights

Soon will end as he is here
By my side through all these years
The touch of power I will be healed
In his name the joy revealed

Set free from ******* and chains
My love for him always remains
Demons flee in his name
Warmth and love hit like a train
Smiles laughter singing praise
Thank you lord for being with me always

When you're down and feeling blue,
Turn to him and he will see you through
Trust in the Lord and you will see,
His great power will strengthen thee
There's no greater love then from above,
He will hold you and show such love
With his great touch and tender care,
Turn to him if you dare
When you feel like noone's here,
Always remember that he is near
He watches from the clouds above,
So talk to him that's what he loves
When you're down and feel so broken,
Remember he is beside you for you're his token
This life will pass and you shall part,
But with him you'll return as from the start
