the black rose Jan 2019
share a home with the monsters,
made friends with voices.
settled in what is chaotic,
still at peace in the noise
and
the madness doesn’t scare me one bit.
the black rose Dec 2018
so you lead and i submit?
well,
while the blind cannot lead
and you will most likely drag me to ****,
atleast we’re cute.
you know? relationship goals.

it’s funny,
men tell you what not to be then betray you with the same description.
& they ain’t messing with no gold digger but an encounter with a woman that has her sh-t together
leaves your ego fetal positioned.
-
it’s tragic.
one day they are all over you,
the next day they are over you.
the mind games are the only thing that’s lasting.
attracted to big as$3s.
never mind
how she keeps her surroundings,
can she cook some food?
raise a child?
or raise you, for that matter.
-
you base worth off of body count
or how tight a vagiina grips
your insecure little d-ck
that’s seemingly more of a man than you can ever be.
the black rose Dec 2018
i never was
& i guess ill never be.
i didn’t change,
im just more focused on me.
more focus on what goes on outside of the opinion of those that could care less if i live or die..
or if im living
or dying...

i know that im not like the normal girls,
nor do i wish to be.
i like a life of serenity,
a life so full of mystery.
a little crazy,
a lot of different.
a savage dose of inconsistency,
& pure intentions.
so far from pretentious,
that’s how you know its real.
hiee.. so today is seemingly a good poetry day & i am excited, these days are becoming very scarce lol
the black rose Dec 2018
i hate to wonder what if,
but what if?
what if i am never allowed to taste your lips?
what if the flame is lost before we spark a match?
what if your heart is closed,
the most restricted latch.
what if your smile has faded?
& you are tired of waiting?
what if your love is out of patience for me?
what if our eyes,
they never formally meet?
what if i never get a chance to hear you snore as you sleep?
what if our bodies never touch?
what if we’re somehow out of luck?
not a moment
to hold you close,
or a single second
to show you
that you mean the most? ...

who says that storms can’t be beautiful?
the black rose Dec 2018
i am deep in relations
with a deeper meaning;
familiar to a larger view
of a picture that most
can only see a spec.
so when i’m distant
don’t you take it
as a form of disrespect,
or neglect.
my space
is required,
my ability to function
is in compliance with
my ability to be silent.
in solitude
i confide and
they say no man is an island,
i am an island,
isolated.
separated.
never to be integrated.
the black rose Dec 2018
an ever-brewing ache,
one similar to the feeling of the world on my shoulders.
it never lets up.
a silent cry in the wind,
a scintilla of sadness,
gives the warning of a thousand violent storms.
it’s chaotic here,
it’s a mess.
each day i breathe,
each day
i love a little less.
the black rose Dec 2018
i don’t need your attention,
bet that got your attention.
sometimes i need your affection,
sometimes i grieve with intention.
not used to someone that don’t need you,
you don’t need me?
i don’t need you.
say what you mean,
say what you need to.
i need proof,
i don’t believe you.

the black rose Dec 2018
a past as dark as nothing,
as sound as the abyss.
with nothing to look forward to
keep going,
i insist.
if you’re willing
you will find your way,
after every night
a brighter day.
pay close attention,
hear the words i say.
don’t neglect the force,
obey.
you will prevail,
you’ll be okay.
the black rose Dec 2018
it’s sad,
the things you’ve been through.
it’s sad,
it be the ones
who
claim they
love you.
but
don’t let it change you.
i’ve seen what all that pain do.
