A lie keeps the peace;
The truth would cause a chaos
That swallows us whole.
Vast and unexplored
You used to be clean and clear like a mirror
Now we humans have polluted you
We explore space
But leave 95 percent of our own world unexplored
We think we should run away
But why not run down?
We spend 18.4 billion dollars to explore space
Yet we don’t even spend a billion on the unexplored world
Oh, ocean your mysteries may never be discovered

I lied to my mother about talking to you because last time I told her we talked, she cried.
2. My biggest fear is that no matter what I do, I won't ever get over you.
3. Everywhere I go, I find you. I suppose it's because I carry you in my heart.
4. I didn't believe in soul mates until I met you. You didn't complete me, you complemented me.
5. Sometimes I can't sleep because I'm thinking of you. Other nights I don't want to sleep because I know I'll dream of you.
6. You make my hands shake and my stomach hurt. I don't think love is suppose to feel this way.
7. I miss you even when you're not away. I hate it but it's always been that way.
8. Sometimes I think we were meant to be. Everything was right except our timing.
9. It's been two years too late but I still look for your face in a crowded room.
10. You felt like home but if there's anything I've learned recently, it's that home is so very temporary.
11. I never knew craving touch was a thing until I saw your hands.
12. You are the whirlwind of thoughts I could never put into words.
13. I write about you like you put the stars in the sky.
14. I don't want to forget you but somedays I regret you.
15. I don't always like you but I always love you.
What keeps me up at night is you.

I'm so glad I was a kid
Before social media Took over
Because now it seems like people love going viral
Using any means to get over

I mean I'm 19 and I figured out faster
That anything you post up won't go away, not now or ever and you can't fix a child's pride with plaster

Now I'm not saying don't be strict with your kids
But keep discipline where it's supposed to be,  BEHIND CLOSED DOORS if you don't want them behind bars doing a bid

I hate reading articles about 13 year old girls ending their lives
Because their parents felt the need to document a bad day inside the home for the world to see
I'm 60 lb. overweight making me a fat *****
I'm ugly as hell
I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer
I **** at pretty much everything
So alone
So weak
So cowardice
I can't stand to God anymore because I can't stand what I've done
I have no business being happy or seeing any light in anything
Just the facts of me
One out every six women in America
Has been ***** or part of an attempted ****
And i constantly wish that the facts weren't true
Because this is just so awful beyond words
I want to take a shower at the thought of this
The fact that this is so prevalent it blows my fuse
It's incredibly difficult to do so
But this is so severe and disgusting that it does it very easily
We must take the steps for an immediate change
Because i don't want the thought to cross my mind ever again.
I hate the word just as much
I hate the act
I hate the common occurrence
How could you do such an atrocious thing?
It's hard containing my anger. I hate to remind people of such a morbid topic but i feel it needs to be said and not enough Men speak up about this i feel.

Allow me to return to the written page
A very close friend, Bluestar is her name,
Today we aim to address a simple question,
Why am I single? And always stressin?

Allow me please to sip on this hot tea
As we shed some light as to why you're alone in your bed tonight
So if it doesn't apply then go ahead and let it fly

First off do you think it's cute bragging about being crazy
I'll cut your meat of if you cheat and we're supposed to look at you with eyes that are glazing?

Do you really think men like it when you threaten to end their manhood?
You don't see us going around, saying we'll ruin your life
And why do you always gotta ask me who I'm texting?
I mean usually its my mom, not a crazy ex you think I sext with

Seriously jealousy and insecurity are what messes you up
And can you please stop fishing for compliments when you aren't feeling to *****
I get it, we all need a good boost now and then
But asking me a question you don't want the real answer to isn't going to help girlfriend
Oh and before I forget communication is key
If I ask you what's wrong and you say nothing, and I move on from the issue don't blame me
I'm not professor Xavier, I cannot read minds

I cannot deal with this b.s for much longer
I need you to realize your insecurities aren't real,
Your **** looks fine in those jeans, and your hair isn't messed up,
But the more and more you ask me that the more and more I doubt that fact

You really ought to listen to me now,
Guys like me don't like to see you angry,
And the more you question me the angrier you'll get
And that's entirely your fault

Words surge
Vulgarity stutters
What's that again?
OH!! You shuttered

Shut down voices
Disagree in thought
Stop in your tracks
Facts are not sought

Facebook, Twitter
Social media sites
Opinions are all quenched
Control is such a might

The Storm is coming
So I was told
Stand up strong
Always be bold
was banned from a site and a Facebook link because I voiced my opinion and questioned their facts, when my opinion didn't agree with the author's view, they cussed me out and name called me then they banned me without allowing me to rebuke what they posted about me

We cross our hearts and hope to die,
We cross our fingers and tell no lies,
No stories,
No wise tales,
We prosper and prevail,
We proceed to serve society,
Abide by our parents,
Obey the school rules,
The way it intended,
Its apparent,
We love fantasies,
And we love dreams,
We adore peaches and cream,
And we like bird and bees,
As long as they buzz,
You can have a husband,
And get married living with his cousin,
You can be a doctor or maybe a lawyer,
You tell a nickel from dime and a quarter,
You can be a rockstar traveling the world,
You can inspire every little boy and girl,
You can make a living,
You can do whatever you wanna do,
As long as you be an angel,
And be you.

My Conscience ... is ... CLEAN ... !!!!!

"well hidden" ... from sight ...
  
So ....
Let's talk about ... WHITES ... !!!!

It's ... THAT TIME ... !!!!!
to deal with .... " Racism " ....
in ... " Poetic Rhyme " ... !!! ...
  
Some white folk ... are ...
  
........ SLIME .......... !!!!!!!!!!!
  
These people are ... " Primed "
to ... " LIVE IN " ... DENIAL ... !!!
Pretty much ... " All The Time " ... !?!
  
I just can't ... " COMPREHEND " ... !!?!!
why they try to ... " Defend " ...
  
"I'm not a racist !
I've got some,
Black Friends !!!"
  
See ....
"These" ... are ... The Ones ...
who make ... " Racist Comments "
  
LIKE .....
  
"Why can't black people ?
stay out of prisons ?!?"
  
Maybe because ... ?!?
We have to contend ...
with ... " People Like You " ... !!!
  
who are ... " POLICEMEN " ... !!!!!!
  
or classics like .... THIS .... !!!
  
"Black men have, no brain,
but, one thing they can do,
is sure, Entertain !!!!!"
  
See ...
" This " ... is ... " DENIAL "
All Over ... " AGAIN " ... !!!!!
  
It's ... simply a ... " Version "
Let's say ... " A New Strain " ...
  
These are the ... White Folks ...
Who ... " NEED TO " ... Refrain ... !!!!!
from saying ... such things ...
that could bring them ... PAIN ... !!!!!!!!
  
cos' ... " Many " ...
Young Blacks ...
now ... want to ...
" Cut Veins "
  
or ... Pick up ... A GUN ... !!!
and quickly ... " Take Aim " ... !!!!!
  
So ... let's talk about ...
....... BLACKS ....... !!!
and let's talk some ...
........ FACTS ...... !!!!!!
  
How many ... Young Blacks ...
are now ..... " Selling Crack " ..... ?!?
  
More than we ... "Mention" ... !!!
just check out ... Some Rap ... !!!
  
They ... " CLAIM " ... !!!!
to speak ... " TRUTH " ... !!!!!
  
So ....
Let's ... NOT ... " Pretend " ...
or ... try to ... " Defend " ... !?!?!
  
Too Many ... of us ...
are ..... NOT .....
Living ... " COOL " ...
  
We do have ... " Some Blacks "
WHO DO ... " Act The Fool " ... !!!
  
What about ... Black Men ... ?
who ... BEAT UP ... Black Women ... !?!
  
and then ... " Like to Say " ...
That ... " Black Love " ...
..... Is The Way .....
  
What about those ... who say ...

But ... sleep with white girls ...
Under ... cover of night ... !!! ? !!!
  
What about those ...

and shun their ... " Duties " ... !!!!!
  
No wonder some children

when men ... " Drift Awaaaaayyyy " .........
like ships ... " Lost at sea " ...
  
In truth ...
these are problems of ...
  
........ " Humanity " ..........
  
Affecting ... All Groupings ...
All Colours ... and ... Creeds ... !!!!!
  
My wordplay will ... RILE ... !!!!!
if you live in ... " DENIAL " ...
  
This isn't a movie ... !!!
We're not in ... 8 Mile ... !!!!!
  
But ......
Before I go ...
Here is ... My Last Flow ...
of .... " Poetic Prose " ....
  
" Denial of " .... " REASON "
is basically .... " TREASON "
which is a ...... " Betrayal " .....
of the ... Concept of ... " BEING "
  
" Illogical Thinking "
can leave people .....
  
..... " SEETHING " ..... !!!!!!
  
Here is the ... Subject ...
  
So people ....
  
" Deep Breathing " .... !!!!!!
  
This idea of ...  " Black Rights "
and ... " Gay Rights " ... as one ...
is ... CLEARLY ... Quite Stupid ... !!!
and basically ... " DUMB " ... !!!!!! ...
  
Gay persecution ...
is NOT ... A solution ... !!!
It's ... CLEAR ... !!!
that some think ...
  
It's a form of ... " Pollution " ... !!!
  
" Racism " ... is ... " HATE " ... !!!
Racists ... have it ... EASY ... !!!!!!!
They ... KNOW ... A Black Face ... !!!!!
  
But ... how many people ...
Can TELL ... Who is ... GAY ... !!!???!!!
  
I'm ... NOT ... A Gay Hater ...
That's just ... " How I Stay " ... !!!
  
Remember ... Those Words ...
Have a ... "Water Tight Case" ... !!!!!
  
So ....
" DON'T " .... Try to say ...
that i'm ... Brandishing Hate ... !!!!!
  
cos that may result ....
in me getting ... " IRATE " ... !!!!!
  
..... " THE TRUTH " .....
is ...... My Style ......
  
All this .... " FALSENESS " ....
is ............... " VILE " ......... !!!!!!!!!
  
These are .... " The Reasons " ....
  
I'd rather ... STAND TRIAL ...
than be a ... " Fake Person " ...
  
and ...... Live In ........
