MY POETRY




I write a little poetry, if you want you can send me some and I'll post it here.


Rocked


my mind is gone
i can't take no more
this is want you wanted
this is what you've been waiting for
now that you have it
is it good as you thought it would be?
now that you have it
do i see what you want me to see?
i'm crazy in love
or
just crazy...i don't know
but i'm feeling like
my mind is going to blow
I don't know what to do
to say
to think.
my mind is running
my ship is going to sink.
will you be there to save me from drowning?
since you caused this thing?
or will you bail out on me?
and take back your ring?
although this is what you always wanted
it didn't turn out like you thought.
my mind is blown, you did it...no matter how hard i fought
so now it's time to go
to leave
to make your grand exit
to find some other prey
whose mind you can mess with.
it's alright, it's ok
i know i'll be fine.
don't leave me please!
no, i really mean...
i'll heal in time.



My Broken Heart

My heart is broken
not because he left me
but because he's still here.

He beats me
You think, "that dog--he puts his hands on his woman!!"
but he doesn't bruise my body
He bruises my heart
My spirit is broken...torn...tattered...ragged...used...abused...deflated...
and he THINKS he is a good man.
My heart is broken
not because he left me
but because he's still here.

He touches me in all the right places
says all the right things
but, actions are few and far between.
He tells me who I should be
how I should act
how I should dress...wear my hair...raise my children...care for my household...cook my food...spend my money AND my time...
but offers NO support.
My heart is broken
not because he left me
but because he's still here.

He tells me he loves me
but
the first big butt that passes us by keeps his attention for days.
He says he loves me
but
when I'm struggling and reaching out for help...strength...support and understanding
he's tied up in other things.
He says he loves me
but
I'm not valued...respected...trusted...honored nor adored...
My Heart is broken
not because he left me
but because he's still here.





Soft, as wind and
Graceful as a long necked swan
gliding
across a calm, still pond.
Mens head swim and
their spirits float on cloud nine

Strong, like oak and
eyes like magnets
trapping my soul in their irresistable seduction

Mens heads swim and
their spirits float on cloud nine
and I proudly proclaim you EBONY

In honor
of your blackness
