God

Negative voices
Thoughts of pain
Feelings of regret
Self esteem drained
It's hard to maintain
And remain sane
Self image ****** up
But he still loves me anyway

God

I look to the sky and wonder if you are there

Listening to my prayers of despairs

I’m so very tired of being on the fence

Dear lord, sometimes it just doesn’t make sense

I’m suppose to believe in something I cannot see

I wish you could give me a sign and convince me

Instead of leaving me with this uncertainty

But maybe I just need to wait more patiently

Who knows you might strangely suprise me

And end up guiding me along the way

I pray, please sway me somehow and someday

Purple Rain

God

Dear god,
I wear the cross on my chain
As your prays are forever conducted into my brain
And out through my vain
You have a strain on me to do good
For within you I forever could
With me, you forever stood
As I knew you would

For that I'm always grateful
For you are my secret angel
You fly high,
way up in the sky
Looking down making sure I don't drown
And for you I promise never to frown
Or ever turnaround, but to keep on going
Knowing, and showing to way for others
For ****** Mary one of my mothers

Elegy for Dead Poets

Elegy for Dead Poets

When poets die
It's sad and true,
It matters not
What their bodies do,
The spirit flies
To Poet's Corner,
In Westminster Abbey.
You'll not see
Busts or inscriptions
For all the poets
Whose spirits linger
Alongside Chaucer, Browning, Spencer,
And a myriad of authors.
Dead Poet you have earned your share;
Dead Poet I will know you're there,
Composing in the Laureate's lair.

For all poets.

Smiles

Smiles

smiles
this six letter word...
how come it means so much?

does it mean...
happiness?... joy? ...gladness?
does it mean only these things?

I'm afraid often now
smiles are used for other purposes
to agree... to inspire...
to manipulate... ... to Hide.
when did it become so hard to smile
To tell you the truth, I don't know either

smiles with ease now for me
is just a mere memory of what
is once a beautiful thing
me, my friends & my family shared
before.

I may have smile now
but its surely different.
not like before...
everything then was so...
bright, colorful, calm, and easy
when did it become so dark and lonely

smiles ... smiles ... smiles ...
would you please...
bring back...
my smiles

Is wishing it back so wrong?

Abortion

Abortion

Abortion

A screaming baby yelling
“Mommy! Please don’t let me go!”
All because it wants to see this world
But Mommy happens to have regrets and a mind filled with shame
All because nobody knows about little James or Joyce
Mommy isn’t ready for mistakes to happen
A screaming baby yelling
“Mommy! Please don’t give up on me!”
All because it wants to see Mommy smile
But Mommy happens to head to the clinic
All because she’s thinking about abortion
Mommy isn’t ready for regrets to happen
A screaming baby yelling
“Mommy! Please don’t do this to me!”
All because it wants to see its first birthday
But Mommy happens to grab for the scissors and then panics
All because she finally realizes life’s a blessing
Mommy isn’t ready to fall down the same path as last time
A screaming baby yelling
“Mommy! Please make the right choice!
All because it wants to know its gender
But Mommy happens to suffer from ***
All because she was ***** by a unknown man
Mommy happens to give life to a healthy
James Denzel Roberts
But…
A screaming baby yelling
“Mommy! I thank you!”
All because it misses its mommy
But Mommy happens to give James up for adoption
All because she doesn’t want James to suffer
Mommy happens to die 2 weeks later
As…
A screaming baby yelling
“Mommy! You’ll always be in my heart!”

By Zyanneh Frazier

The Name "James Denzel Roberts" Is Just a Random Name I Picked

Madness

Madness

Madness isn't obtained overnight,
It creeps into your mind as you slip into insanity
Truly, everyone is psychotic. its the reasoning for their mentality that makes them so
but when your mind is exposed to the horrors of reality, you lose reasoning for being "psychotic"
thoughts fade away and sanity soon follows.
a human body, filled with blood and flesh has never appeared so hollow.
what is impossible to see is that taking place of your thoughts and sanity is **madness
