Sad Goodbye
Tears roll down cold cheeks
Loneliness creeps into the soul
Fear holds back final words
Sadness overwhelms the heart
The skin tightens trying to prevent physical pain
Depression slowly spread itself through the body
Expressionless face frozen in the moment
Lifeless arms hanging loose on each side
Seven letter word slowly escapes the dry ,chapped mouth

FIRST CHILD
Twenty -Two and Pregnant
Alone and frighten
Black lover on the side
That you tried to hide
A baby growing inside
Excitement suppressed by nervousness
Your husband is not the father
You two never even kissed
Enraged husband discovers your secret
Kicked you out and almost left you toothless
Sense of liberation and end to desperation
Encourages you to call your family for some celebration
Rejected and disowned by your mother
Because of the color of your unborn child
Twenty -three and giving birth
To your first child who is unaware of
The hatred she soon faces
Black lover by your side
Looking over you with pride
Smiling from ear to ear
A new baby girl is here

UNTITLED
Romance expressed through a simple glance
Our eyes dance with each other passionately
Soft, plump and pinkish -red
May sound feminine
But
Deep structures on your lips
Provide a masculine effect
My breast pressed against your
Warm and safe chest
A sense of serenity flows throughout my body
Your flawed but unique hands
Grab the small of my back
Now, a sexual response

MURDERING LOVE
Your touches kills my excitement
Your kisses tortures my lips
Your smiles put a frowns on my face
Your scent stings my nose
Your voice burns my ears
Your laughter brings tears to my eyes
Your happiness has turn my days into sadness
Your success becomes my downfall
Your love becomes the hatred I feel towards you

MYSTERY MAN
Dreaming of the mysterious features of your face every night
Wishing one day you will come out from the light
Your love is so great
Even though your heart aches
How can you care for billions of people?
Knowing that most of us deceive you
Your humbleness amazes me
When I pray at night, out of sadness
I feel your magical presence soothing me
Although I am not perfect, I know you see the good in me

MOVIE
The day they meet
she painted a picture
of what they could be
As each day passed
they fell in "LOVE"
and she casted him into her movie
He was the local artistic guy
with qualities of her dream man
who brought endless smiles upon her face
Across the country
resided the other co-star
the wealthy yet boring individual
who bought her everything she ever needed
She was the main star and the director
feeding lines and directing lives
getting all the attention and deciding who gets the attention
being the main girl and somebody else's girl
Like in any good movie
there is always a twist
which tends to come back to the main character
you got caught up
the truth always makes an appearance no matter how good you lie
its a small world, sweetheart
and karma is a motherfucker
next time you might be casted in a similar movie
and end up somebody's else SUCKER!

WHILE YOU SLEPT
While you slept
I stood guard, protecting you from horrific dreams
While you slept
I observed your facial features, admiring god’s art
While you slept
I envisioned our unborn healthy children
While you slept
I listened to you breathe silently
While you slept
I looked at you, thinking about all the good times
While you slept
I secretly want you to wake up, just so you could smile at me
While you slept
I quietly mouthed the words that I want to say to you
While you slept
I laid still, realizing how much I love you.

I THOUGHT I HEARD YOU SNORING
Last night I could not sleep
So I creeped softly to the living room
The sounds of your rhythmic snores
Stopped me in my tracks
How could this be?
Deep down inside I know you passed
Foolishly I sat by my mother’s door
Just to hear the snores
Tears came down my face
As I tried to convince myself you’re back
As soon as I grasped onto reality
I realized it was him, the one she is with now
