And of course
I'm met with disappointment
once again

It's funny how this is becoming
A common appearance
In my life
This is why I don't like making plans with anyone. I get cancelled on.

... I Guess NOT ... !!!

DON'T Get Me WRONG ... !!!!!
Of Course SOME Do But NOT For Long ... !!!

DON'T Make MISTAKES Time And AGAIN ... !!!
INSIDE My Place ... You Should REFRAIN ... !!!

Go Home To YOURS ...
And Then ABSORB Your Train of Thought ...

Then THINK Some MORE .....................................................
Then Grab Your HAMMER And Be Like THOR ... !!!

Just Like Rappers Whose Tours Are POOR ... !!!
Because They FIGHT Like WARRING Tribes ...
FIGHTIN' To SURVIVE And GRAB Their Slice ...
of The ...... DEVILS' PIE ...... !!!!!!

D'Angelo KNOWS ... What That Feels Like ... !!!
It Can WRECK Your Life If You GRAB A BIG SLICE ... !!!!!

DISRESPECTFUL Types WILL PAY The Price ...
For ... Weak Attacks They AIM AT Blacks ... !!!

Nowadays Most Whites Have REALISED ...
Some Blacks CHOOSE To Feud With OTHER Black Crews ... !?!

And Are QUICK To .............................................. Dismiss .....
Those Within Black Skins Who TRY ...
To UPLIFT The Minds of ... " NIGS' " ... !!!!!

Those Who THINK Their ** DON'T Stink ... ?!?!?

..... " Black LOVE " .....

... " Black WHAT KEEP Talking Son ! " ...

YES The Man Was Black ... !!!
What's Up With THAT ... ?

Black Folks Seem To THINK ...
That They're OWED Something ... ?!?

It's NEVER Their Fault When CREDITORS CALL ... ?!?

Saying ... " Payments Due ! " ...

That's NOTHING New ...

See SOME Blacks ... "Hide" ...
Behind Their FINES GAMBLING And LIES ... !!!
And Things They BUY That BLING And ... " SHINE " ... !?!

They'd Rather Have What They DON'T NEED Than PAY Money ...
Back To THE MAN Who Tried To GIVE Them A Helping Hand ... ?

Where's Their DEFENCE In ARGUMENTS ....
That HAVE NO CASE But TRY To ... " Save Face " ...
NO Devils' Pie But A ... NASTY Taste ...

DIVIDING Our Race Seems To Be Their Way ...
FOOLS Who CHOOSE NOT To USE Their Brains ... !?!

Can't Black Folks Just GET ALONG ... ?!?

It Would Seem NOT ... !!!

"ANOTHER One DEAD, ANOTHER One DEAD !
Shot in THE HEAD, From A STRAY BULLET !"

It's Black CHILDREN ...
Who NOW NEED Vests Worn By The FEDs' ... !!!

So BEFORE You CHALLENGE ... FACE That TEST ...
A Den of DRAGONS ... TAKING LAST BREATHS ... !!!

Go RUN Your Mouth On The WRONG SIDE of Town ...
You'll Get FOUND OUT When You HEAR GUN SOUNDS ... !!!

I SPEAK IT As I SEE IT ... !!!
If I'm KILLED ... So BE IT ... !!!!!!!!!!!

If' I'm SHOT Cos' I'm WRONG ...
Then I'll Sing My SWAN SONG ... !!!!!!!

But TOO Many Young Blacks ...
Are SHOWING CRACKS ...
You Can Tell By Their Chat ...
That It's STRENGTH That They Lack ... !!!

THINKING ...
Wrong And Strong ... Is The Way To MOVE ON ... !!!

DISRESPECTING Other Blacks ...
Whose CHAT HOLDS FACTS ... !!!
TRUST We NEED To STOP THAT ... !!!!!
And STOP These Cheap Shots .....

Whether From FAST GUMS .....
Or From THOSE Who Carry GUNS ... !!!
Put Your PHASERS On ... STUN ... !!!!!

Can't Black Folks Just GET ALONG ... ?!?

THIS Time I Hope My Rhymes ARE WRONG ... !!!!!!
Because The Answer I've GOT ... Is ....

.................. " I Guess Not ! " ...............
Moving to Barbados and dealing on a more regular basis with black folks, sadly, inspired this ...

"Where do you want to go?"

"Far, far away..."

"It doesn't seem right."

"Never it did"

"Was that supposed to hurt? The constant disappointment."

"..."

"Your mind is in a dark place and you let them win, don't you?"

"..."

"You can't keep it all inside. You're torturing yourself."

"I always end up getting into this situation."

"Stop doing a damage to your ownself."

"You have no idea what I've been through, do you?"

If the bar is low,
maybe I won't disappoint
you with my failures...

I wear these masks
Fake smiles
Pretending to care
Hiding my pain
My brokenness
Tucked away tightly
But still slipping through these cracks
Emily Ann Dec 2019
it seems to me
those with the
biggest hearts
experience
the biggest heart break.
constant disappointment
followed by devastation
correct me if i'm wrong.
but,
i know i'm not.
it's ironic
really.
the ones who give
their love
always hurt in the end.
a cycle
never ending-
no escaping-
never time-
to catch
a
real break
Cole Dec 2019
I thought I was special
I thought I was good
But this disappointment is expected.
Just not in this amount.
I knew I wasn't good enough.
I knew I wouldn't make it in.
I now know it's pointless.
Yes, I like to sing,
But I'm not good enough for them,
The judges didn't choose me.
They chose my friends
Yes, they're very good,
But I thought I was too.
My mother lied to me.
My "parents" will laugh.
So I didn't make the cut.
So what? It doesn't matter!
It's not like I thought I would.
I'm not actually that good.
It's pointless to try out now.
I know now I am no good.
Pointless to go for my dreams.
I've never been accepted.
None of the competition choirs choose me.
None of them care
It's pointless for me to cry
No need to be sad.
I knew I wasn't good enough.
They just proves me right.
But, oh, I so wanted to be enough.

-3nwlry
I tried for a audition competition choir,
All my close friends made it
And I didnt.
It's the worst I've felt in a while.
I was left out.
Forgotten. Ostracized.
Robby Dec 2019
My life is not what I wanted
Unmet expectations
Needs unfulfilled
My heart has grown cold

I need you to thaw this ice
Let the sun shine on my face
Warm my being
Before I destroy myself
Jane Doe Dec 2019
Stand tall
Stand proud
Stand strong
No matter what they say

You’re not we want
You never have been
Oh please just go away

What a disappointing child
A waste of our precious time
Her innocence has long since died
And monumental are her crimes

I look straight at them and smile
As they spew this poison forth
Willing myself to face the trial
This calculation of my worth

I remind myself to hide
And hold my head up high
For behind the facade of pride
I cannot help but cry inside

I try my best to insult
Openly defying
For there is no use in trying
To delay the sure result

They want to see me broken
They want to make a point
But I won’t ever be soft spoken
I’m sorry to disappoint
