Standing on the edge
Water at my toes
I look at you and think
I wonder if he knows.
I look at you
You look at me
Nothing is said
But you're all I see
Your eyes consume me
I swim in them forever
I'd rather be here with you
No matter the weather.
Holding my hand
Pulling me in your direction
Silently I wait
For all of your affection

It's hard to say
It's easy to feel
But seeing something
Doesnt make it real
A subtle butterfly
A beautiful view
I feel a gentle flutter
Thinking of  you
I can feel your soft landing
Something strong enough to hold
Your the flower I crave
Your nectars made out of gold
And When I'm inside you
Encased and dissolved
My flutter and your nectar
This is reality and its evolved
A butterfly and a rare flower
One searching for the other
While the other enduring
seasonal transcendant weather.
If I was the butterfly
and you were the flower
That means Id crave you
And the butterfly always gets the flower.

Winter is coming
Fall is near
Each as inevitable
But together quite clear..
Leaves are turning color
The trees are during slow
It's colder every day
And it's only began to snow
Winter is coming or so they say
We've yet to see and already snowflakes
Drop all over and it can't be just me
It's cold, quiet and yet I feel assured
I know flowers will bloom and everything will be warm .
Occurring every year is what the seasons have in store.

Here comes trouble
Better call ya back up,
Acting like your talking **** is finna burst
My bubble, better put a pin in it
Take a tack and stick it in
Your judgment  leaving cause you  , drownin and slippin from the game you in
your judgment of me left my hand like  these crisp *** Benjamins.
I be steady  bendin them
We could all get up and if we finna stay up you gotta be open to soaking in a new  opinEin
didnt say you wasn't listenin but
My thoughts ?  Just cant fit em in
While u clown and put down,
things the new ***** with a smart mouth let come out
And all she talking bout is bread? But every ***** u ****** with...
opinions dropped dead.
Real **** can never be said. With all these close minded heads.


Ya I'm going shopping and you ain't finna cop it ,
You ain't catching me not the po po
Or the dollar in my pocket.
Nah ***** you ain't stopping it acting like MY character  is a belt you can put a hole in.
Your goal is quite simple , if you try me you will *******
From all the ways you perceive
you thinking all these ******* simple.
the slang you been stocking if you listened i can top it .
Pimpings got two i's which means double  the ******* profit
I use my brain  can't knock it.
you Finna stomp it down and clown there is a brain in this ******* sound what game you playin now?
watch how  I clue u like the game
Scarlet red in the library..
  learning from croooks not books
She dont have the lead pipe or need the knife,
Look rich or poor you learned
An educated ***** is better stunt in on the old *****.
The snakes i can't hear hiss
Getting the real rich cause I dont give time to a ***** who dont know this , I might be a dumb ***** to you thats coo but those of you ,
Can have, and get it and always see me on they route. Everything gonna spill out and im cool as ice and inside Im chilled out. This tone is a ***** now and dont talk listen up but sit down look me in the eye and dont speak .
If I put it down I'll be stronger every time the real **** can't come out, I comprehend the peak and when it can't leak, it pours out my mouth like the faucet with power now , real **** and talk all over you blocking the talk that you would of seen me walk
thats ****** if you say no ***** can think but the game you play can stay that way for when I think I speak
I can't change this ****** up tone,voice or what I portray ,
Im a ***** thats okay a real one you'll see but if u ******* up imma let you be
Rain is clear everyone feels it,
But you can smell **** even if your near it
Hear it when I speak it if you in **** how can u smell what I clearly told you maybe  its because you deep in the **** I could of showed you open up to the things I told you. I'll never be the ***** to sell same **** the other ***** u ****** with sold you.
I ain't got time to be a dime
With every other ***** thinking I'm lieing
This opinion ain't a show and my girls clearly know
if I want the D I get the tree everything else is
Dont get it twisted cause other ******* ain't got
This mindset or thoughts
Dont talk to me if you dont like me
You want me to know you why spite me
Respect is respect if you give it
I'll return it like the Nike's a lick bought me
Cause the real ones got me. And I ain't wait around to fake it or talk free.
Other girls ain't like me. Intimidation is a skill you can't sell no pill flip it or sell
How can you come up with a ***** who you want to listen
She can't get what she trying to get
If her opinion dont fit
let it in see how it goes
Cause imma always speak true ****
My character stomps the *****  you thought you could change it but my words are what's with the **** and trust when I say I'm get this **** .
If it ain't right imma tell those inside the circle of trust I show and provide
A ***** or a **** imma always speak my mind.

Read and Reread a page in a book,
Each and every line.
Memorize every letter,
Until they intertwine.
Take a little break,
Then do it all over again.
Until the tears soak up the words,
And you can't find where you begin.
Though blind with tears,
And haunted by fears,
Every thing starts to clear.
You can not put in,
What does not fit in,
Or unwrite that which has been written.
So back to the book once again
Remembering  the damp crumbled words
To know how it will begin,
To tear you apart just at the end
To constantly remind yourself as you have been
rereading a page will not become unwritten.
Will not change the words ,
Or make them listen,
Go on skip ahead
Read from the heart
This is where you wanna begin
This is where it should always start.
**** the begining **** the end
Let's just meet half way.
But even this of course would be
Just not the proper way
Even when you chose to start
You took the time to reread every part
Even the pieces that broke your heart
And  even knowing when you start again
It'll never be possible to rewrite the end.

Today I had a thought,
Today was something new.
Your eyes steal me away ,
Every time I look at you.
You ask me what I see,
I see the details of your heart.
When I travel into your eyes,
It tears me a part.
Im not quite sure what happened,
There's things I still don't know.
Details I fail to mention,
Then the world begins to slow.
Down but not stopped,
Dark but not forgotten.
The details of your eyes,
Are something I get lost in.
The rare feature ,
The reoccurring feelings.
Falling for a man,
Whose eyes constantly steal me.
And every time I wonder,
If the man inside your eyes,
Knows I'm trying to save him,
Does he know I won't let him die?
But suddenly it speeds up,
The world no longer slowing.
The man stands on his feet,
And his strength suddenly growing.
Today was something new,
You tried you did you can.
Be better than the memory,
Of a corrupted neglected man.
So when u ask me what I see,
Every time I look at you.
I wish to say the same,
Today was something new.
You ponder your thoughts ,
Wondering what I see.
Today was something new,
Today you were with me.

Here right now and way up ahead. Think what you feel think about the end. Sometimes in life we dont always feelthe precious moments butbinstead we feel the knife im a negative person or so ive been told its all the anger I used to hold. But since our begining ive been glad for you are best that will of had. This poem doesnt rhyme but it tells a story. Of two teenage lifes without the glory.

So theres* this guy,  laying over there,
I think he might kiss me, but hell probably just stare. When I start to talk I look over and see this guy right here already staring at me. I wonder what it is. About my face or expression that has him confused about all my intentions. I show him affection but does he realise. That every thing I do is real for this guy.

Those we Love remain with us,
for Love itself lives on.
Cherished memories never fade,
because a loved one is gone.
Those we Love can never be,
more than a thought apart.
For as long as there is a memory,
they’ll live on in our heart.

I wish you were,
still just a human
to me.
I don't wanna look at you
and see poetry

You were you,
and I was I.
and we were two,
before our time.
I was yours,
before I knew.
and you have always,
been mine too.

What hurt the most...
Was loving you so much,
But that not being enough.
What hurt the most...
Was watching you walk away,
And knowing my chance was ruined.
What hurt the most...
Was having you so close,
But not close enough.
What hurts the most...
Is watching you kiss and talk about another girl.
What hurts the most...
Is knowing I can never have you, but
What hurts more than anything else...
*Is knowing that I had you.

I slit my wrist to erase the pain,
you look at me, and think I'm insane,
my eyes turn red, bleeding my tears,
and still you try to protect me from my worst fears.
Look at my scars then you will see,
why I can't seem to go around and fake happy,
yet you tell me you love me, that you'll forget,
for I'll soon be gone, and I'll be your greatest regret.
So let me die, broken and scarred,
I can't deal with life, it's getting far to hard,
everything's gone wrong, it's not worth trying,
so leave me alone because I feel like I'm dying,
I don't want you to worry,
because my life is ending in a hurry,
I'll be fine, and happy you see,
for death is what I wished for and soon it will be
T.L.H

You left me beautiful memories,
Your love is still my guide.
And though we cannot see you,
You are always by my side

Alone and unwanted is how I feel.
Writing these words is how I deal.
I guess it's better than any other way.
Like the one that takes me far away.
To the land of dark and nothing,
But it's better than here where my heart is crushing.
The future is scary but the now is worse.
I don't want to continue living out this curse.
Alone, alone, It's all I think.
It's here, It's there, It's when I blink.
I feel it in each and every bone.
Alone, alone, alone, alone.

You know that feeling
Where you’ve waited all day to talk to the one person
and you’ve been so excited
but you compress that emotion into a simple “hey”

But you discover neither of you have nothing to say
and the conversation slows to a hault
And you can literally feel your stomach drop
and your heart ache
and the tears creeping out
one
by
one

Yeah, that feeling *****.

I will not cry from what you made me do.
I can live far past the potential you see in me.
I know I look weak and that maybe true,
But I will not cry because of you.
You used to help me up when I fell down
And wiped my tears off  before they hit the ground.
I can’t be perfect, though I try so hard to be
I want to laugh, in spite of what you’ve done to me
You keep reliving untruths that once were said
None of your thoughts leave, they just spin around in your head.
I tried so hard to be good for you.
I wasn’t perfect, but neither were you.
You hurt my hopes and crushed my dreams.
My future is without sight now, I have no means.
My spirit must find some other way
To make amends and take away
I have a dream without you now
My soul will soar upon the clouds
My life isn’t easy and you used to
Make each day easier to live through
But in your absence you must know
I have so much now,  I continue to grow
You held me back and I couldn’t see
How great this life would want me

truth is my poems are legit.
I dare you to find one
that u don't like.
truth is ..

I don't know how,
I tried to know why.
But the more I tried,
the deeper I plunged.
Into the war,
within myself.

Tameica Hammick.

I miss you so..
you'll never know,
all of my feelings
I cannot show
for if I do
I couldnt bear
the thought of once again
feeling my heart tear
you ripped it out
and others knew
they saw the hole in my chest
ripped out by you.
you ate my heart
and said those three words,
and then you left...
like we never were.
each moment was perfect.
each one better than the last.
The one thing that I cannot bear
is that you are part of the past.
I cannot believe
that we are not together.
it was never supposed to happen
what happened to forever?*

Always,
        Tameica Hammick

sitting on the computer
not wanting to talk.
waiting for that moment
me and him go for a walk
he'll kiss me gently
and make sure im alright
i dont think i would do
anything to make us fight
when everything is perfect
do u wait for it to go wrong
hes all i think  about
like that stupid radio song.
maybe everything isnt okay
but he will convince me it will be
whenever hes around he is all i  see.
he makes me smile,
each and every day
although when hes gone
no happiness comes my way.


Always,
          Tameica Hammick

Wanting time to stop,
so the sun will never rise.
Because in a single moment,
We found truth in all the lies.
I found love inside your touch,
And a warmth in your embrace.
My worries disappear,
as I softly touch your face...
And now I understand,
that love is like a flame.
It's lit our hearts on fire,
and we will never be the same.

Always ,
Tameica Hammick

Walking through the rain,
I try to forget the pain.
I try to ignore,
the sting in my eyes.
Because I know,
a strong girl never cries.

Always, Tameica Hammick.

****   **you, Cupid,
For striking me so deep.
****  you,
For giving me something,
I thought I’d be able to keep.

Always,
            Tameica Hammick.

When you are sad, I will dry your tears.
When you are confused, I will comfort your fears.
When you need love, my heart I will share.
When you are sick, for you I will care.
You will feel my love when we are apart.
Knowing that nothing will change my heart.
when you are worried, I will give you hope.
When you are confused, I will help you cope.
When you are lost, and can't see the light.
My love will be a beacon shining ever so bright.
This is my vow, one that I pledge to the end.
For you above all, are always my best friend.
These words I have written, speak of my love for you.
From my lips these words spoken, shall always ring true.
God has blessed me, and with your hand in mine.
Both of our hearts, will forever intertwine.

I love you so deeply,
I love you so much.
I love the sound of your voice,
and the way that we touch.
I love your warm smile,
and your kind thoughtful way.
the joy that you bring,
to my life everyday.
I love you today,
As I have from the start.
And i'll love you forever,
With all of my heart.

I clicked the mouse,
my mouth dropped open.
We talked and talked,
our fate had spoken.
It carved you a path,
straight to my heart.
I had no choice,
I played no part.

Always,
      Tameica Hammick

The time spent with you, was like a dream come true.
You could take a gray day, and paint the sky blue.
Life seemed so easy when you were around.
Being with you, felt like I was flying high above ground.
Loving you allowed my thoughts and dreams to soar.
I loved everything about you, everything right to the core.
Your love was my place to escape.
Your warm arms around me, made me feel so safe.
I always hoped that I could make you see.
Your love, was the best thing that ever happened to me.

As I sit her with little to do,
My mind is filled with thoughts of you.
As I work hard throughout the day,
I miss your smile that's miles away.
As I lay down and try to sleep,
It's memories of you I always keep.
You must know my love is true,
I spend all my time missing you.

I pick up each foot,
and as it passes the other.
I think of my friend,
and how we have been there for eachother.
We've been side by side,
Like left and right.
Forgetting about the past,
and getting through every fight.
Through this long journey,
we've been eachother's guide.
Helping the other get through,
what we are feeling inside.
She continues to make me smile,
even when the time's not best.
She's always wiped my tears,
and knows when to let me rest.
Autumn I want you to know,
and remember for a while.
If I finish this race,
its cause u make me smile.


Always,
      Tameica Hammick  5-18-10

I want a guy,
who knows who I am.
But still chooses to love me,
the very best he can.
He'll hold my hand,
whenever the time is right.
He'll kiss me gently,
and call to say goodnight.
I'd be the only person,
He'll want to kiss.
And through out the day,
the only one he would miss.
He'll tell me all those things,
that I want to hear.
Sometimes he'll make me cry,
but will always wipe my tears.
He wont even have to text me,
for me to know he cares.
Cause ill wake up every morning,
and he will always be there.
One day he will soon tell me,
together we will grow old.
We'll runaway together,
and this story will be told.

Always,
   Tameica Hammick.

I lay here awake,
but ill dose off safe and soundly.
Constantly thinking,
how much I miss your arms around me.
I know you were here,
just the other day.
But I long for that moment,
when you take my breathe away.
I sometimes cant breathe,
Ill never hurt you again.
I know that at first,
you say that's hard to believe.
I made some big mistakes,
No matter what happens,
I do not want a break.
I love you too much,
to ever let you go.
The more I think about,
the more I want to let you know.
No matter what the future holds,
Ill be right there with you.
Ill whisper in your ear,
I just can't  live  without you.

Always,
Tameica Hammick

If only the sun was out,
to brighten up my day.
Bending the bloomed flowers,
as the sweet scent comes my way.I cry to show my pain,
and close my eyes to hide.
So nobody can feel,
how I truly feel inside.
They can see my tears fall,
but can't feel my pain within.
Hoping everything will be over,
when my eyes finally open.
I look out the window,
and sweet flowers fill my nose.
I dream someday someone,
will present me with a rose.
I lay thinking on my bed,
whenever we start to fight.
but when I go to sleep,
sweet dreams through out the night.
I decided to close the window,
cause nothing is what it seems.
That's why we close our eyes,
when we kiss, cry, or dream.

Always,
       Tameica Hammick.

You held me when I was born,
but let go after I grew.
still trying to remember,
cause you're the man I never knew.
The only memories I have,
are from the pictures I see.
the ones covered in  dust,
the few of you and me.
I can never remember,
the event of when it was took.
Each picture was a mystery,
as I flipped through our scrapbook.
It hurt me deep inside,
The little girl you left long ago.
The one you once held onto,
until she started to grow.
I know now fifteen years later,
what I didn't know then.
Every girl needs her father,
from beginning to end.

Always,
    Tameica Hammick.
