I cut you,
You do not bleed.
I push you,
You do not fall.
I scream,
You do not flinch.

You stand by my side,
The strongest person I know.

Thank you x

I'll never forget
The way you smelt
Like sweet epiphanies
Or lillac breezes

Each carried
A different note

Thank you
For all
Your seasons

DEAR SUN,
Your rays entwine with my heart
giving me energy to send rays of love
to the many I meet. Thank You.

DEAR VOICE,
You carry power with words,
to speak truths,
songs to sing, and even screams to cry.
You supply a mouth piece
for light beings
to speak.
Thank You.

DEAR SECOND,
You are like a grain of sand
almost invisible but
as you join with others you build
and I learn from your example.
Thank You.

DEAR BREATH,
You caress my lungs
touching every ***** to aid self.
Without you I would not exist.
Thank You.

DEAR GREAT, GREAT, GREAT GRANDPARENTS,
Though your faces are visible only in photos,
and your forms long gone,
I honor your lives and riches Of your values
woven into my very nature.
Thank You.

DEAR LANGUAGE
You, the written word
fuels my passion as poet,
allowing me to spread wings
inside poetry
Thank You.

Just before the sun greets my black skin
I sit in silence and embrace the day
Searching for what's within
Before the madness begins
At this time my soul knocks on heavens gates
Thanking God for another day
Praying he protects my family and friends

There is always room for improvement,
Develop yourself!
Help yourself!

Time goes will never come back,
Read! read! and read!
Spend time wisely!
Help yourself!

Home, church and school,
In order to reach your goal,
Hit the mark!
It will set you free from the dark!
Go on to the road as your journey embark!

Help yourself!
This is dedicated to my dearest instructors in my developmental reading 1and 2.They horned my gift of reading and writing. I salute these two lovely couples!

A simple word
a gesture with smile
opens ears and hearts
no matter where you roam.

I thought you were the one
that i would spend my whole life with
I thought you'll give
the same amount of love i did.

I am more that willing
to give you my everything,
but you chose to ignore me
when you're all i see.

I even felt the need to move on
from something that doesn't even turned on,
i thought i won't ever move forward
because you've been pulling me backwards.

But despite of all the tears,
thank you  for letting me pass through my fears.

Thank you for not choosing me,
when i only have my eyes on you.
For all the mixed signals you gave me,
making me think that you'll love me too.

Thank you for making me realize that you not choosing me,
is the start of me choosing myself.
Thank you because i am finally free,
from someone who won't even look at me.

I am now finally happy,
i found someone who wont  doubt on choosing me.

Thank you also, for realizing,
that i will always be your 'The one that got away'.
