Her touch... soft as a feather, Her heart... tougher than leather... It's cold, Cuddling weather... She's bold, Doing better... Her body, A beautiful sculpture... Her enemies, Some restless vultures... She winks, Once then twice. She blinks, Afraid to make a sacrifice... In the dark she cries, Thinking about dating guys... She cuts herself, But doesn't know why. She's a lesbian, Her family doesn't understand. She's different, Wishing she was born a man. A trip to visit the beach, And sleep in the sand is her plan. She's white but likes black women, Her parents call her a negro lover... She thinks, Every race is equal to each other. She's bullied by her brothers, When they found out she was gay... They refused to hug her, And she's shown no love by her mother. She lived her life completely misunderstood, All because she didn't like "wood." Every day she was judged, But she never held a petty grudge. On the day she died she couldn't restrain, From saying no matter what others think, Staying true to yourself will ease the pain.
Love From the dark comes a shining light, To free those who dwell in the dark, Together we are bright, Two souls together, rise from apart A kiss lights up the sky, A hug brightens up the mind, Give life for those who seek it, From nowhere comes the hope called Love.
It only comes off as jealousy because of the unfortunate experiences that occurred during her time. It's a mixture of past emotions leading me to be cautious of patterns in my subconscious. Whether it's intended or not, the impact of it is crucial... How do you trust again, After your soul is broken? Nobody can really win, When we both want to be outspoken... I usually try to pause, To let you speak your mind. I can't support your cause, When I'm a stepping stone in your mind... Am I a notch under your belt, When all of my feelings have swelled? You can't imagine how I felt, When I bought the lies you sell. Prettier than everyone else, I felt greed wanting you all to myself. It couldn't be helped I had fell, In love with making you feel well. I put sexually explicit pleasures aside, Even when you showed your dark side. My all simply was never enough, And the road less traveled by was tough. Trusting other women after you is hard, I find myself subconsciously on guard. The woman I want looks like a star, But compared to you she isn't on par. I really outdid myself I was proud, But for me happiness isn't allowed. I boasted about you extra loud, Walking around with my head in the clouds... Reflecting on the past makes it worse, You were so ravishing yet a curse. I started feeling as if all girls are the same, In spite of that I can't credit you with blame. This wasn't really projected, But it was only to be expected. From the moment we connected, I knew that I had to accept it. Sophistication on the cover, But on the inside you're basic. After a while I became a skeptic, Because we never had each other. Is this how it feels to be blind, When I followed my body not my mind? My poetry still reeks of you, When I tried to be first and got left behind. Women cheat and use deceit, But I never keep the receipt. The saying is "talk is cheap," Now I must sow what I reap.
Just something corny I came up with inspired by a meme :lol: Can I be here for you, Can I love you? Can I squeeze you, Can I hug you? Can I hold you, I admit that I want you. Can we make this official, Like a ref with the whistle? Can I have you to myself, I don't want anyone else. Can it be an us, We can base this on trust. Can you be mine, I'll send chills down your spine. Can I be yours, The one that you adore? Can I make you happy, Even when you feel crappy? Can I treat you right, And love you all day and all night? Can you trust me, And promise not to judge me? Can I be here for you, Can I love you? Can I squeeze you, Can I hug you? Can I hold you, I admit that I want you.
I dont have a voice I don't have a voice, Not one people listen to anyway, I mean, I can form sounds, Speak words, But no matter how loud I scream them.... I am never heard. They ask me - What's wrong? It's simple, I don't belong, Why won't you speak your mind? I do try ! I think you'll find. But, Speach, is no longer free, I say what is wanted, Not what is needed. I speak in rhyme and metaphors, In body language and abbreviations, I make my own riddles... Code my own words. Sometimes, I forget. Or. I can't really tell, If I share my words, Or keep them to myself. I spew punctuation and grammatically incorrect words. Yet let whole phrases, Go, Unspoken. I've learnt, That you thoughts don't have to be verbalised, They can be expressed in Art Sports Violence Or better yet s i l e n c e . I'm fed up of people, Making choices for me, I'm fed up of my mind, Godamn fighting against me! 'Cause when I am giving a chance, To have MY say, My mind goes blank. And takes the words away.
It is a product of my depression. Wrote it 2 months ago This piece doesn't have any title. "To my dark room, i questioned my sanity i questioned as though this pitch black of my very own, will eventually answer me back out of boredom and annoyance. "you are talking way too much to the lifeless instead of humans" "you need shrink" i am waiting for my room to answer me. but none. they're lifeless after all. to whom it may concern, forever this heart shall be a hollow shell with some extra neurons just to make its owner hurts, all words ever spoken to you is a lie she shall never love you till the day she dies not because you're lacking of something she just doesn't feel a thing. as she is a hollow shell with no name with extra breath to blink and felt shame she shall never be yours for she always owned by nothing and no one, of course. not because you are not good enough it's just that she never had love bestowed upon her life. and she shall die lonely in her sleep and shall never have any happiness to keep."
Doesn’t have a title. Kinda sucks. Just wrote how I am feeling. Not a day goes by that i don’t blame myself for the pain that I feel. It goes from my toes to my finger tips. It shocks my body. My lips they’re numb. They miss saying your name. They crave your lips. They miss your body. My knees go week. It’s hard to walk. I can’t stand. I can’t help but fall. My heart it still beats but it’s broken, bruised and frail It’s scared. My lungs they’re weak. It’s hard to breathe since you left. You were my light and fresh air. I knew the type of person you were when I first met you. You treated me the same way you treated them, I thought I could change you. So smitten in love and lust. I said yes to be wed to you. A week before we tied the knot and all the money spent You decided we were young and dumb and you left. Not a day goes by that i don’t blame myself Because I knew better.
</3 so powerful. I'm sorry that this happened to you. It's got to be the worst betrayal. This is bull shit. But your life will go on. You might feel small and crippled and feeble because of what they did but like a rose after a storm you'll shed those drops like tears, regain your bright hue, and find love again. Less young. Less dumb. And with hope in your heart. Papa bless.
More free writing than poetry but whatever.... comes to mind I’m going to write because sometimes you just gotta do that ya know? Anyway... Ahem. I call this: Toy. I sit in my corner Till you come and play The hand me down toy That you put away I don’t say a word I don’t make a sound I don’t come alive Until you’re around Like so many others You’ve stared in my eyes And I’ve kept your secrets Validate your lies I nod and I smile When all your friends come They ask who’s your favorite You say I’m the one You don’t like to yield If it gains you not You don’t like to share I don’t feel you care You gave me this house But it’s not a home And I don’t feel safe When you leave me alone So I’ll take the blame For being what I am What you wanted me to When I belonged to you Preparing my way For the day that this ends And you curse the day That we became friends
Lost Absorbed in your fabrications, I let my guard go on vacation. I felt lost in a vacant sky, When you fed my head lies. Misguided with no direction, I fell for a fake impression. I tried to give love and affection, Only to face a bitter rejection. I prayed to see some difference, Slowly caving in to depression. My hormones contradicted me, And it was an utter suppression. I hated myself for the first time, When you wasted my time first. First you ignored me for a long time, And got mad when I put myself first. I wasn't soul searching or caring, But you always had me staring. I felt stranded in the middle of nowhere, Someplace where no one cared. We were supposed to last for eternity, Together hoping for paternity. Ironic how life never goes as planned, But you were just a fickle fan. Was it the thought of forever, That made me happy in the beginning? I thought I couldn't lose you, Now I forget what it's like to be winning. Forever became a misconception, When I learned the concept of deception. It felt like dying in my nightmare, When I learned life is never fair. Left on an island of solitude, I fought against my emotional mood. Someplace where there's no breeze, Someplace where there's no degrees. Someplace where I drifted, Without my spirits being lifted. Someplace I'll never return, Still recovering from heartburn.
I have a lot of poetry, but what I consider my good stuff is dark. So more than likely, I won't post. But y'all have some good work and it's nice to see poetry still being appreciated.
Am I not good enough, Or are you not satisfied? Eye to eye don't bluff, Don't say it's classified. Trying to make you happy, Showed me I'm gullible. It made me feel crappy, Because the pain wasn't subtle. If caring is sharing, Then why was it one sided? I loathe what you're wearing, Why must we be divided? All this pain in my heart, Could completely fill any void. If only it all could restart, I would've avoided everything. Wasted time and effort, For someone who could care less. If only I wasn't myself, And I could become careless... State of self-consciousness, Where I feel like I do no right. Every action I make feels wrong, I want to disappear from sight. All of my dark smooth skin, Covers up the emotional scars. Confessions of feeling sorry, Made me wish to the stars. It made me wish for healing, When your lips were sealed. The actions you're revealing, Were the ones that got my heart killed.
Really thought that you cared You left because you were scared I wasn't worth all the stress Time poorly spent, but nevertheless You made an impact on my heart And then you chose to depart You have a home in my soul And I have no self-control Here I sit alone Falling into the unknown With no hope of getting out As if I were in the middle of a drought With you as my rain And without, is constant pain I suffer here alone In the unknown appreciate my awful poem pls
