When you grow older,
What will i honestly love,
It won't be beauty,

I try to believe that there is someone out there for everyone so that I have something to look forward to.

The more the beautiful the girl, the more I wonder what other defense she contains to keep her emotions latched,

I fractured your rules,
but I should have broken them,

Rumors spread,
but you control the size of the bread
people don't help
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
Often I think of you,
maybe too much at times,
but you are a love I have never experienced,
even though I have never experienced love,
your snow white skin creates a vibrancy for your fragile blue eyes,
it always seems like you believe in me, even when I lack belief in myself,
your words are my wings when my day has hit rock bottom,
You have two years on me but I always feel like we were born to be,
or maybe we were all born to believe that love belongs to us,
and maybe that is my reason for thriving...You, but am I allowed to love you?
Love,
it bobbles in my hands when I try to use it,
it makes me wonder how can I love without knowing what love is or having anything to compare to it,
For the longest I believed that love was a feeling something you showed toward someone,
but maybe I'm mistaken,
maybe it's what I'm feeling now,
Weightless,
yet heavy with love to give away,
please,
just tell me it's hopeless now...Cassandra,
I'm never sure about anything

your love for someone grows
without the need for nourishment
a possibility yet discovered

When I win award at school and look at all the smiles that surround me,
I always wonder which ones are actually real,
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
you stepped on my heart, and now it's stuck to the bottom of your shoe...sooo I guess you can keep it then.

I thought falling stars were good, but turns out all they do is make the sky dimmer.
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
Thank you for your dreams,
For now there is hope,
to all dreamers

why does it take death
for people to feel guilty
crazy isn't no guilt until a life is lost
Hakeem Jenkins Feb 2015
And to my surprise,
Who i thought i could never understand,
i loved,
Forgive me Naomi for stereotyping.
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
I'll give you my heart,
as long as you don't sell it back to me,
I'll shield you from the fire,
as long as you don't burn me in return,
I'll will be your love,
as long as you don't become someone else's,
but if you commit all the don'ts,
I will be forced to throw my love in the fire and shield you from my heart
For someone who is hurting
Hakeem Jenkins Feb 2015
I didn't truly understand your heart,
Until it's veins and arteries intertwined with mine,
Sorry for being too passionate aka obsessed
Hakeem Jenkins Feb 2015
Even after i fell on my face,
You didn't stomp on my dignity,
sorry for being awkward Naomi

I believe in non believers,
I believe that they believe that science is magic and therefore,
I believe in magic,

before I run out of falling space I just wanted to tell you that it wasn't your fault.
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
Had my hands not been sweating from peer pressure,
I might have saved you from suicide,
you might still be beside me today,
sometimes I feel your words in my mind when I do something wrong,
I smell your cigarette stained clothes that your mom didn't have enough quarters to wash,
I still see the burn marks that are on your arms from the hot cigarette pressed to your skin,
I wish I could have saved you from the man you were supposed call Dad,
but I couldn't,
I remember the way you cried when he beat you in the other room while I just sat on your bed crying with you, you would come back and we would cry together,
I should have done something, but fear covered my mouth like a muzzle,
I wish I could have brought myself to look death in the face with you,
but I couldn't,
I couldn't save you, I couldn't protect,
but I could watch you deteriorate inside,
I'm sorry
this was almost real
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
dinosaurs roamed the earth once,
nearly a million years of life for them,
I wonder if humans can last that long,
or are we just a insufficient species just occupying the world until God can make a better,
more advanced species that can save it

Clouds know the touch of your skin better than my hands

I wanna dream that doesn't have an expiration date

you may not know this
but your reading light is just
another fire
inspiration Fahrenheit 451
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
They say darkness represents evil,
but I use the darkness to stay humble, and hide from my enemies,
The lime light is the true evil,
you change before your own eyes,
good becomes evil and evil becomes maleficent,
So what hero saves you from the Good?
Hakeem Jenkins Sep 2014
Why do people think I am still listening when I get farther away,

Love bugs, why do their bites create a

Hope,
falling in love is never easy
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
I will not love you,
because you say "Love you"
the words are hollow
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
I sing to trees,
but only when
they are
alone
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
You live another day,
to contemplate why you are here,
I've always contemplated...it is clear now.
Hakeem Jenkins Jan 2015
Everyday people make mistakes,
I guess it's finally my turn,
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
Today is real, but tomorrow is a hope for a dream
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
The hills roll over and over creating dimples within the earth where tears flow down to my heart,
the mountains are just an excuse for a blanket,
I draw my heart from the trees,
timid under the circumstances,
We trade hearts and you walk away,
your heart now hid away among the trees,
my heart hopefully hidden away from danger,
until we meet again
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
Do not cry for me
don't even cry for yourself
cry for those worth it
don't cry
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
My love is for someone who does not exist,
but I will hope and save it for them,
undisturbed,
And maybe I won't need to choose my second choice.
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
I planted this flower because it was the only thing that didn't leave me.

Why put labels on people when we can put price tags on them instead, because everyone is worth something.

Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
I will not throw stones
my words will do more damage
I will just skip them
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
Show people who you are,
so they do not misunderstand

Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
Do you really think because you think something,
it's true
don't believe yourself

yesterday I thought I wanted to grow to be a doctor, but now I realize I just want to grow up to be somebody to you.
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
Silence gives me too much time to think of you,
That is why I talk to myself
Hakeem Jenkins Feb 2015
It was critical for you to be my chance to take a chance,
But now I'm wishing it was someone else,
I need to stop
Hakeem Jenkins Jun 2014
a voice can influence nations
but they can't persuade minds
it's your choice to change your own mind
