Denial by Abigail .R

This strong affection can’t hide no more
I try to tell you but am weak
My heart is broken with a leak
This feeling that I feel is unbearable
Am kneeling because only you can heal
I wish you would just tell me how you feel
I still don’t understand why we can’t be
I still don’t understand this strong need
There many things I want you to hear
But it seems words don’t come so easily
I watch you when you smile
I watch you when you were with her
I watch you in denial, telling her she is who you prefer.
Dare you deny that it is I who you desire?
Stop running away just let it be…
May I say that this cannot end unsaid
To end undone, No I can never let this be?
Know matter how it ends
With the truth I shall mend.
I wake up to a tender disposition
Cried at nights & slept through the days
And everything hurts, is all a big yearn.
I don’t know how to take it
Don’t know if i  can keep on faking it

Freewrting

so me & my brother would always write or have like freestyle competition he actually won that days competition and i had to give him props because i really liked it.


I look into the mirror I can’t stand your face.
I gaze into your eyes & I see a hollow space.
Everything I hate I want to leave this place.
Take me up high in outer space.
You’re with me everywhere like an after taste.
You always leave me in a bitter state …
I fall down on my knees but I don’t say grace
The weight is heavy like am stuck in place.
Everywhere I look I see this same old face
Momma always told me I would be a disgrace
But I told her “wait till I leave this place
Then you’ll be calling me and you have to chase.
But you’ll never ever going to see my face
Ill close my eyes and imagine a place
Where god gave me the perfect face
Ill go back to mama and show her this face
Ill tell her now her daughter could go work for chase,
Then I open my eyes and I see my face
How can this be im still in the same place?
Is like am always going to be stuck inside this maze?

Hide My Heart

My intuition tells me you like me
My intuition tells me your wifey
I don’t know, you just might be,
One of those phases I go thru nightly
Lonely, I won’t let them in on my secret
Lonely, its my heart so I’ll keep it
Besides, its much colder when its out for the public
Its mines, so only I’ll love it
Hide! Hide my heart, Hide

Not Qualified

He says “hello”
She judges his approach
He isn’t up to par
So he doesn’t get far,
Before her mind is made up
An option she presents
“Let’s just be friends & nothing more”
He interprets it the wrong way
He intends to give his all
He needs what he wants
What he has in-store
She isn’t ready for
A dinner date, movies & more
(At least not with him)
He’s hitting up her cell
Did shorty get his message?
He’s knocking at her door
He didn’t get her message
He is persistent
He goes against her wishes
Force himself upon her
“She doesn’t know what she’s missing”
She doesn’t know what he’s thinking
Tells her don’t make no plans for the weekend
…
No response from her as always
Adds fuel to his fire
He has desires
Best attire is worn,
To surprise her after work
To make things work,
But she is tired
She lets him speak,
And so he does

He says
“Together we will be complete,
Together we will compete,
For who has the most urge for one’s heart
We will stay strong, Together”

She takes it in
She stops and thinks
“Am I falling for this creep?”

She is
Who would’ve thought
A man that smother her
Caught her, is now with her
Just like that

Persistence is the key I will not hold
If she does not want me, I will go
No hard feelings attached
I am no match against this loser
No more chases for me
I am much cooler

Waiting on Recognition

Patience is a virtue
Patience might hurt you
Waiting on results
Longer than you suppose to
She’s says that she loves you
Loves you like a brother
Why did you even bother
Your closer to her mother
Her lust is a rush
His smiles makes her blush
Your smiles makes her comfortable
Just not the way you want it to
You lied in wait
Blended in with the friends
Blended in with the family
Blended into oblivion
You like her
But she likes him
Mom likes you
But she introduces him
They held hands on thanks giving
Kissed on the new year
Blew candles on her Birthday
V.Day she sheded tears
She prized him
You watched her slip away
You prized her
But she doesn’t see you that way
She thinks your cute
But she thinks he’s hot
Your her best friend
But he’s the boy friend
Your not feeling the vibe
Your stuck in the friend zone
Your crushed inside
& it will never be known
By Joe Broadway


This is one of my favorite poets he writes about love life and basically his feelings. Its crazy because i can relate or feel exactly how he express himself with his poems. The first time i read one of his poems i was going to cry i was like omg" that's exactly what happened to me . I feel this empathy like i can feel a strong emotion when i read his poems .There are no kind of words that can express the way I feel about his poems! I mean hes everything and he knows how to express himself in all types of poetry.  The words he speaks i can relate... i feel his words lives in me.

Alien in disguise

Alien in disguise

I am like an alien always in disguise trying to blend in – not letting them know that I am from the sky. Because my head, it always be in the sky. Sometimes I wish that I could be myself. But damn I need help. Are they’re any other Martians who share my despair because this world is choking me, quick run out to the store and buy me some originality . cuz this planet is fake like it is polluted. Everybody got a smile on they’re face while the polar bears fall flat on they’re face. Soldiers shoot a kid in the face and he is saluted with grace, health care gets higher and higher and it’s undisputed. But all this is ok, like you walking down the street and someone says “oh did I blew my cigarette smoke on your face. You want to punch them but you remember you’re in disguise and you’re not from this place, so like every other earthling you inhale it and smile, and think to yourself oh well eventually ill die in this place and someday go home to space.

The sea of sadness

i wrote this  Back in high school thought i shared it.

Drifting In the sea of sadness I been caught swimming in your eyes again.

Guarding my heart so it doesn’t break again.

I keep falling for the same game.

Really is such a shame… but this one is not the same at least that’s what he says

Sorry but I must say that since our eyes met I knew that just yet, fate hadn’t left.

Now a day a guy like you is hard to find

It was like looking for a needle in hay.

You were my every kiss begins with Kay

You stared at me I stare at you; you start to laugh I can’t resist

I give in so I turn away I can feel your presence stalking me

In your arms I want to be what is it that you want from me?

These little games you like to play but you won’t tell me the name

You want me to play but I don’t know the game.

I keep thinking you want my fame mysterious boy what do you want from me?

Secretive I see mysterious boy what do you hide from me?

All ask is one more chance hold me tight with all your might.

And when these marks and scars begin to fade away

Will know a new rose has grown in my vase.

Never thought I could love anyone but myself

Always thought I be on my own

But now I see Apart from you I can’t help but miss

Who knew I needed you when I cry.

I never felt this way before I can’t stop thinking about you,

Like a magnet I wish you couldn’t run from me.

I need to here your heart beat.

I can see the way you look at me; I can tell you want it to…

Boy what its wrong with you can’t you see I want it to…?

See baby I don’t care if hating want to start let them haters bark my teeth are sharp...

Come and make your mark that’s all I want is to be yours

When I hear your voice my heart hangs heavy

Since our first interaction I was impressed by your express
 dying slowly of your love but you’re the only one who can keep me alive

. Inside my head he would stick to me like a flea.

I was weak on my Knees and nothing will take away my ease.

He would always find the keys and seize me easily.

Didn’t even know he was my weakness baby was born with some kind of uniqueness

Wish I could tell you how you make me feel no games, no excuses

 Never knew what I been missing now eyes wide open

I can see there’s no one else who can make it right.

Yes you are my Mr. Right

Never seen someone so bright who has no fright pushing with all your might

Hoping are love long remain here lasting to stay.

The feeling of so untouched sad to say I miss you every second of my days

Damn didn’t give you a chance on romance

i guess that's why they say

You don’t really know what you got till it’s gone
