I am something impossible to dilute. The concentrated, raw, and insoluble potion. Take me, untamable as I am. My attitude, emotion, and all. Artistic, innovative, and expressive. Facial expressions as blatant as a book for dummies. I’m written in bold legible black letters on paper as white as alabaster. A black - rich and dark,… Continue reading Take Me As I Am

Hear Your Humankind
Many talk and few listen. To understand one another should be our mission. Many talk to be heard, not to relate. Tongues fixed eager for debate. You know, closed ears leads to a closed mind? And then a closed heart. Many hear nothing because they’re anxious to start. Did you hear the message, the soul… Continue reading Hear Your Humankind
She
Temple of beauty and gentleness. The bearer of all fruit. The Juliet and Stella to every Romeo and Astrophil. A server of her purpose when her ovaries are ready like red rubies, and ripe grapes. Tulips of life she is. The obligation to life, and to live. Nurturer of all nature. Provider of nutrients and… Continue reading She
You Let It Happen
You're effortlessly manipulated You'll let him lie to you easily Cause your body gets stimulated You become a fool and fall blindly Deep down you know you shouldn't answer his call. But you pick up without hesitating. You act like you have no morals at all. You see the problem you're creating? They don't want… Continue reading You Let It Happen
Real Talk, Doesn’t Talk.
Don't say it, Because you'll say it 'til you can't say it any more. Show it, I don't want to hear it, I've heard it all before. You love me. You always have and you’re proud. You support me. Y'all always say it aloud. How about when I ask you for help, you show up?… Continue reading Real Talk, Doesn’t Talk.
How Dare You?!
My heart bulged in my tight chest. It grew heavier and weaker all at once. I could hear it knocking in my ears. My feet felt like they were tacked into the ground. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't lift them. My mouth fell open in disbelief. Then my blood ran hot. Then… Continue reading How Dare You?!
Your Eyes
Your Eyes They are something only God could make. When I gaze in your eyes, my breath you take. Your eyes stop my thoughts. Snatching and mesmerizing. Look away, I cannot. Pulling and hypnotizing. They force my pair, to stop and stare. They cause the pause anytime, anywhere. Then we see nothing but us. We… Continue reading Your Eyes
Fatherless Happiness
You helped create me. You didn't lead me. You didn't make me who I am today. You never told me it would be okay. You didn't teach me what I know. You weren't there to watch me grow. You weren't there the first time I got my heart broken. There are too many words unspoken.… Continue reading Fatherless Happiness
