emotion
Dennis Scherle Jan 2014
u want more emotion, maybe im just tourchered to the point im just going through the motions praying out there i find a potion to let me relax, maybe stop the wise cracks about how im fat or how minimal the cash is i stack. or maybe the fact when i cut open my vain i just see black no crimson blood just black oozing from the cracks as if my tanned skin is a stone statue starting to crumble under the weight of self loathing. the fact of deep down id rather be a better person but it bugs me i cant afford the fancy clothing, even in our society how we hype up to the idea then it comes to play and no one seems to stay like whatever happened to kony we live amungst phoneys saying their better only to better their pride and maybe to impress a futer bride collecting money only green in there eyes envious of those that accumulate wealth but seem to be blind to those who have nothing pushin it off to someone who has more to give now tell me again wat gives u a greater right to live over the young women even children forced into *** but u need to spend ur check on a fancy rolex because ur life is complex now im not saying im better though i have been gifted with my life but in my heart i still cry everynight because were on borrowed time ive seen people distroy themselves in hate a freind in grade 9 became addicted to******* now shooting ****** in his vein his leather jacked stained skin n bones calling on the phone for his next fix my mom with her slit wrists pretending i dont exist  now is that enough emotion for u after all im still just a kid.
I love babe in my sleep when im awake last night i dreamt of you of us married in the futer yes i know it will happen us getting married but hey lets not go to soon small steps first cant be to fast or it wont last and we know this so we wait every second of the day every hour of the day every day of the week we think the futer yes two wrongs make right cause we help each other and work together.

Listen​ ​to​ ​these​ ​words​ ​i'm​ ​about​ ​to​ ​speak
For​ ​if​ ​you​ ​listen​ ​closely​ ​you’ll​ ​see​ ​more​ ​than​ ​the​ ​color​ ​of​ ​our​ ​skin
I'm​ ​black​ ​(obviously)
And​ ​i'm​ ​not​ ​proud​ ​of​ ​the​ ​choices​ ​of​ ​the​ ​black​ ​community
For​ ​their​ ​mistakes​ ​has​ ​changed​ ​the​ ​way​ ​you​ ​look​ ​at​ ​me
For​ ​they​ ​have​ ​made​ ​your​ ​eyes​ ​to​ ​camouflage​ ​me
With​ ​the​ ​color​ ​folks
Color​ ​doesn't​ ​tell​ ​you​ ​who​ ​i​ ​am
Or
What​ ​i​ ​am
Just​ ​because​ ​our​ ​skin​ ​is​ ​the​ ​same
Doesn't mean
Our​ ​futer​ ​is​ ​not​ ​ ​identical
For​ ​every​ ​person​ ​is​ ​not​ ​the​ ​same
For​ ​we​ ​all​ ​have​ ​dreams​ ​and​ ​wishes
Don’t​ ​blame​ ​us
For​ ​the​ ​people​ ​of​ ​our​ ​skin​ ​had​ ​different​ ​values​ ​within
For​ ​muslims​ ​are​ ​not​ ​the​ ​same​ ​just​ ​because​ ​one decided to have a  ​bomb to release
Doesn't​ ​mean​ ​They​ ​all​ is
Font you believe
For​ ​the​ ​soil​ ​that​ ​you're​ ​standing​ ​on
Was​ ​built​ ​with​ ​sweat​ ​and​ ​tears
From​ ​people​ ​of​ ​different​ ​colors
From people from different nations coming to make one
For​ ​our​ ​color​ ​don’t​ ​define​ ​the​ ​souls​ ​within
For​ ​our​ ​color​ ​is​ ​more​ ​than​ ​scars​ ​they​ ​left​ ​behind
For​ ​our​ ​color​ ​don't​ ​define​ ​who​ ​we​ ​are
And
My​ ​Color​ ​is​ ​not​ ​gonna​ ​define​ ​me

Into The Ashes
Raven Feb 2020
Don't spend any money on a box
and labor for a 6 foot hole.
My soul is with Jesus.
My body can go.
Into the ashes
that fly far away
stop wasting gods space
with bodies decaying.
He rises with no fear of the futer.
So why should you be left with my burden.
Set me free
from the chains that held my feet
for this was a trial run
to figure out where you will be
when God calls
You answer with life.
Your soul is what he needs
not the body that you see.
So when my time comes
please dont waste money on a box.
And labor for a 6 foot hole.
My soul is with jesus
My body can go.

— The End —
