For 19 yrs of clean air I breathed in the insults of nature And I kept in the moisture left Penitrating loud conscience
Like the time my brother couldn't breathe During his back sugery for 2 hrs When docters placed his spine With a rod in hopes to straighten his back to keep him from leaning sideways but his fix didn't stop there In telescopes he is reaching perpendicular up north so the dreams of angels swoon amongst his sight Condescending, patronizing what may come of the future Tomorrow is a riddle that seeps the curiosity of what will be And my love and patience for him to overcome pain stand strong
But I can't stop smoking...
Like the time I thought I was going out of my mind wondering why this cute kid wouldn't like me in class Never guessing the young seed I was stuck in a crusifix shame Like I needed his amo to pierce me Shooting ahead of time to tell me I will never be that girl when I grow up to fall in hell I got what I asked for in back seats of ***** power and authority misty incubus I was plunged into regret
To think that when I was told so many times at home to stop eating because no guy will ever choose me And I'm hanging by desolation With not the need, but the wants
I won't stop smoking the ******* effect feeling it asleep or awake Beating pass the bruises on my chest because the S was a snake that swamped my entire confidence and bone Hurting each time the main man of the house corrected me for each inch of my flaws
I can't stop smoking... Pondering on forgiveness
Confused and anxious like a dog on his/her down days tucking their tail in the corner waiting to be loved the right way But I wait for the madness to give me a break and I'm begging for time to wait but the tides bash the stupidity upon my face when I kept pushing to betray my identity to embrase true colors But my color is one.. tranaslucent Justified and run through By-passed and neglected all for me to devour and gag
I am still smoking... not breathing Locking in chaotic hypnosis Dodging the scent of excellence Keeping pain alive as a way to get by and I envy it like Oxy Holding me down bedding in gravity But for now, fear is testing me but she is glass and I am the brick Letting it know I am up and I am about to happen In the words of Dr. Mya Angelou
"YOU MAY ENCOUNTER MANY DEFEATS, BUT YOU MUST NOT BE DEFEATED"
No challenge is well excessive So the next time the ones who doubted me The next time you see me breathing It will be for life.
