Poems
Dec 2013
Gold Digger
I was not raised in religion,
But in feminine spirituality.
To my mother money is God.
To my mother money is power.
Second generation daddy issues
Passed down three times.
Words of wisdom repeated like psalms in a church house
"Romance without finance is a nuisance"
Three generations of divorcees.
Is this ***** power?
Taking on the burden of not selling myself short;
Financial happiness versus mental.
Feeling the guilt of sin
Having not betrayed The Creator
But rather my name, her face
Falling in love in with love
Despite its wallet.
Who wouldnβt want cheap kisses
Compared to an expensive heartache?
