HEAVEN ON EARTH IS A FALSE NARRATIVE
HELL IS OUR TRUE REALITY
THE MIND IS AN INESCAPABLE CAGE
Kewayne Wadley Sep 2021
She was here long before I.
I was not native to her land.
I joined hands in celebration.
My every emotion, a feast returned.
Aligned in reciprocation.
I an inhabitant of her,
& She of me.
A comfort to the mind, body, and soul.
I saw myself in her,
Not afraid to separate where land
& lake begins.
Supporting each other as the sky and
stars.
I celebrate like a native.
I celebrate in all her teachings.
She a proud nation & I a piece of her.
In hands the color of mud,
I call every piece a name familiar of her.
Without lies. Without fear to stand up.
A fruit fully grown & sprout from the tree.
She was here long before I,
Not lost neither stolen.
I joined her hands and rejoiced
Before I knew I could breath.

I have gone for almost a year
Frowning on my chances
Wiping up the tears
Seems Life has gone well
Well Aint I the lucky apple?
To the teen before
that is depressed and squabble
Now free from the land
That use to be my devil
The demon in my head
No longer my cradle

The old Alvirez now become JJ (My new Nickname)
From the depth of my fear
From the demon that i slay
No longer chain from my rear
Hoping one day
I made it and it will continue this way
To keep that fire burning
Keep on fighting
To the Lord i pray

For the time being
I just wanna do the things I love
Protect the ones i care to
Until one day
This body wont be able to

To one reading this, God Bless
merely a life update on how i been

Rewriting the fairy tale
In my own words
Where the prince wanders
To find the Princess.
Where the princess has abandoned everything
Yet they don't end up together
Both the eras were unlinked

Eyes can deceive
The cheerful person you know
Has dark secrets inside him
The silent person you know
Is having a stir in his heart
The stormy person you know
Is trying to find solace

He pulled me in close
Then He whispered in my ear
Baby you have nothing to fear
I turned to face him
With a cheeky grin
and whispered back I’m glad your here
He wrapped himself around me
Then We danced all night
Going strong till the morning light
Holding each other’s arms
Embraced in each other’s palms
Baby it just felt so perfect and so right
He whisked me away
Then swept me off my feet
We danced to the DJ and the beat
Had the time of our life
I forgot all my strife
I swear god knew that we would meet
He gently kissed my lips
Then we ordered more drinks
I ignored all the other boys winks
All that mattered was him
Forget the shots and gin
This night was where our forever would begin
This is a poem about meeting someone special on a night out and them having a place in your life

Fall in love with yourself again
Look within
There is beauty in the places we try to hide
You know
Remember to love yourself for who you are know your worth you are perfect the way you are own it!

I don’t know what tomorrow holds
But with you baby the sky’s are gold
I don’t know what our future is
But with you baby I don’t want to miss
A single second ,minute, hour or day
We all have that special someone who you know will make the days you go into better together

please fix what's broken inside me
i've tried a hundred times
and i can't seem to make it right
there's nothing inside me that shines anymore

i killed off yesterday
so there wouldn't be today
yet i woke up again this morning
