*THOUGHT I WAS HAPPY,
FINALLY FOUND WHAT I WAS MISSING.
BUT I WAS BLINDED BY LOVE,
AND DISTRACTED BY HIS KISSING.
*I LOOK BACK NOW AND LAUGH,
I WAS SUCH A FOOL.
IT WASN'T A REAL RELATIONSHIP,
I SHED ENOUGH TEARS TO FILL A POOL.
*HE DIDN'T CARE ABOUT ME,
OR ANYTHING I HAD TO SAY.
WHAT A SLICK BASTARD,
THIS GAME, HE ALREADY KNEW HOW TO PLAY.
*BUT WHO'S THE LAME AT THIS END?
THE INNOCENT OR THE ONE WHOM FOOLED AROUND?
HE MIGHT BE FREE OUT AND ABOUT,
BUT I'M THE ONE SAYING 'BOW DOWN.'
*BECAUSE IM NO LONGER HIS DOOR MAT,
GIRLFRIEND OR HOMEGIRL.
AND I HAVE ME SOMEONE SPECIAL,
WHO MAKES ME FEEL I HAVE A PLACE IN THIS WORLD.
*WE'RE FULL OF LAUGHS AND SMILES,
INSTEAD OF TEARS AND FROWNS.
HE KEEPS LIFTING ME HIGHER AND HIGHER,
NOT LIKE THAT FOOL WHO WOULD CRUSH ME DOWN.
*WHAT I THOUGHT WAS HAPPINESS,
WAS REALLY PAIN AND EMPTYNESS.
I HURT ALL MY LOVED ONES,
AS I FOLLOWED BEHIND HIS FOOTSTEPS.
*PRAYING TO GOD TO FORGIVE ME,
AS I CONTINUE TO TRY TO KEEP THE EVIL AWAY.
I NEED STRENGTH TO KEEP IT TOGETHER,
AS I LOOK AT LIFE UPON GOD'S TRAY.
*ALL I EVER DID WAS TRY TO HELP,
TRY TO FIND A LOST SOUL.
BUT ALL HE DID WAS BITE THE HAND THAT FED HIM,
NOW HE DOESNT KNOW KNOW WHICH DIRECTION TO GO.
*I CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH,
BEFORE MY BODY EVENTUALLY GIVES UP.
CATERING TO HIS EVERY NEED,
MY HAPPINESS WAS OUT OF LUCK.
*ALWAYS PUT HIM BEFORE ME,
THOUGHT HE WAS MY "WORLD."
JUST THE THOUGHT OF HIS "LOVE",
MAKES ME WANT TO HURL!
*HOPE ONE DAY HE FEELS MY PAIN,
AND TEARS FILL HIS EYES AS MINE DID.
HOW CAN ONE PERSON DO SO MUCH DAMAGE,
AND MAKE ME NOT WANT TO LIVE?
*HE PROMISED HE'D NEVER HIT ME,
A BUNCH OF BULL THAT WAS.
I COULDN'T STAND TO LOOK HIM IN THE EYE,
OR ENJOY HIS HUGS.
*I HAD TO LET HIM GO,
NO LONGER COULD I TAKE THE PAIN.
CAN'T SAY IF I'M HAPPIER WITHOUT HIM,
AT THIS TIME,MY UNHAPPINESS REMAINS THE SAME.
*BUT I NO LONGER HAVE PAIN,
PAIN CAUSED BY HIM I MEAN.
BECAUSE IT'S THE NEW ONE WHO MAKES ME SMILE,
AND IT'S HIS SHOULDER THAT I LEAN. |

| Poem: |
TO BE MYSELF |
| |
|
|
To be myself, Is an expression of lankiness. Making my way through a broken path arouses Curiosity and mistakes. Today is my day You will not throw me down. My face has enough blue, It needs some truth. Please don’t tell me your beliefs because they Are all lies, My time is now and I am already gone. Another day, I always say, Will bring the light to your tainted eyes.
