"My Pledge"

I solemnly swear to be thankful for HIS gift
Allowing borrowed words to be heartfelt
Remain dedicated to this craft only if
I’m no longer writing for me….
But for someone else.

To selflessly scribe w/sophistication
Mindful of diverse demographics & ages
Reciprocating comments left for appreciation
And eliminate vulgarity when emphasizing cases.

To open a mature mind venting vehemently
So produced points can be punctuated
Paroling all words serving time for creativity
And disregard the # of stars when rated.

To respect this allegiance w/humility
While insuring the ink discharging from my pen
Create concrete concepts objectively
And copy write my work for all those hatin’

"A Classic"

Ideas itching to be scratched by a pen
Scenarios shadowboxing in its sanctuary
Musical vibes stimulating my cognition
So writer’s block doesn’t conquer what’ s in me.

Authorizing predicates to proposition subjects
Causing words on alternate lines to rhyme
Threads having tantrums about being in a quartet
Given incentives to make it work…
Just one more time.

Rhetoric regurgitated for my readers to relish
Similes smiling @ someone they never met-aphor
Lyrics Prosing Satires to make Verses jealous
Knowing Narratives Oded Hai-kus a gesture.
God bless you…☺

Parsing a manufactured classic to publish
Elated about this endorsement w/an alias
Crediting HE cause I’m never selfish
As I conceal my pen for the obvious.

"A Blind Eye...Not..!!

A mental challenge verse the physical existence
Raising questions about the black women infected
Pushing for higher education with persistence
As we have “World Trade” w/Bin Ladin undetected..

Ain't that a Bytch…

Keys being misplaced to prisons holdin’ my race
Propositions being 8 by mandates suggested
Hoping Obama is conditioned for burdens he’ll face
Grindin’ on a daily so my daughter is never neglected.

Who wouldn’t…

My social conscience has anxiety about socialism
Global warming drying tears of frustration
Protesting racial epithets to those that’ll listen
While our economy sleeps on park benches during this recession..

Bail me out…

Losing 2 brothers put life in perspective
Trusting that one day @ a time is “God’s Plan”
Bypassing a cancer stricken family is the objective
Blessed that there were “footprints” left in the sand..

No need to ask why either..!!

"Catch The Wave"

Floating on calm waters alone
Life jacket protecting a pessimistic pen
Ideas being ebbed from shore to hone
In hopes that in time I’ll catch 10.

Creating concepts for a crested wave
Skeptical how standing on this board will be
Relying on gift I’m blessed HE gave
Poetry in motion for my readers to see.

Inner chatter initiating the inevitable
Thoughts transcending tides @ sea
Drowning this thread will be regrettable
If done right, it will be marked in history.

A responsive mind surfing to success
Within seconds this ride will be over
I did my best is what’s professed
As I crash ashore…
And brush this sand off my shoulder…!!

"Ladies 1st"

Angelou said rise
Tubman ran so Rosa sat
Harpo is now “boss”

"Say Yes"

Walks in the park to converse
Predicting a life long dream
Improvised gestures done as if rehearsed
Ambiance warranting a kiss in between.

Muuaahh..

Fingers intertwined in the moment
Discerning a soul thru an iris
Hoping the name “BOND” is what she’ll represent
Not caring about a knee when I try this.

Will u marry me?

An answer surrendering within seconds
Tears following yeses out her mouth
Thankful for one of HIS many blessings
Eliminating any misconceptions and doubt.

Contemplating when to tell our parents
An intimate night that we’re yearning
Having a void filled is so apparent
We’ll break the news in the morning..

Good Night Baby..
I Love You…!!

"Single By Choice"

Reverting to an umbilical cord severed
No longer attached to a woman
In search of a new relationship to endeavor
Selective for reasons known before chosen.

A hindered hindsight impairing a vision
Analytically thinking about what’s next
Eulogy of a cheater to be forsaken
Modifying a mentality in order to confess.

Dissecting dialogues to annul hidden agendas
Aware that feelings are all you have
Compatible to that of a Virgos temper
Intolerant to diaries of woman gone mad.

Matured steps of confidence taken
Creative changes pumping truth thru a pen
Naked ring finger is never 2nd guessing
Why I have yet to find my bestfriend…

"Reality Bites"

Backtalking to backslide into the obvious
Amnestic about lies in discussion
Devil detailing moods that are furious
In hopes of minor repercussions.

Instances relived didn’t matter
Pardoned principles unlikely this time
Birds singing about facts now gathered
Confused how a situation is left in a bind.

Trying to value something priceless
Not wanting truth to be set free
Weeping away dreams dreamt in distress
Saying if was meant to be…
It would be..!!

"Upgrade Me"

Sugar laced water quenching a thirst
Recycled clothing not even knowing
Daily cries being extended since birth
As this impregnated pain keeps growing.

Stop please…

An indecent ideology proposed
Caught in a crossfire of deception
Complaints about the love never showed
Not conforming to this form of segregation.

Not me..

Memories of melancholy written
Pondering if a dream could prevail
Education attained to make a difference
While followers clutch onto coattails.

Hold on…

Promises kept as the successor
Mended migraines during migration
Blocks of cheese tasting a lil better
Fulfilling this prophecy was never a question.

Told u..

Reciting an obituary titled “poverty stricken”
Smirks about this salvation for sanity
Praying that a new generation can listen
So titanic thoughts won’t be repeating history.

Gone but not 4gotten..!!

"Faith"

Footprints in the sand
Crutches no longer needed
In blessed hands, BELIEVE...!!



By mikeb30

Tht's WUK's Up...!!

Clearing the gray areas thru gray hairs
Perceiving the practicalities are non fiction
Yankee lessons comprehended but in need of repair
Socialism erecting a structure with deception.

Visine please..

Seeds planted underneath evergreens
Building houses for hooters to be heard
History instilled being co-signed by rings
Taking time to operational define the unspoken word.

Rain on me..

Gulping what’s grasped from previous generations
Practices adhered to for strength
Thirsty for enlightenment during the next session
Stature never shrinking cause the truth is bent.

Peace..!!

"A Star @ Night"

Telescoping an age milestone in the horizon
Reflecting on decisions now rectified
Apt to sacrifice a limb for 3 #1s
Time will tell why a blessed heart can’t be denied.

Misspelled musteaks with undastanding
Can’t “SAY” what “BROOK “ a union
Daddy’s girl is a memory left cherishing
Multi-tasking sacrifices to remove burdens.

Inspired by mathematics reigning supreme
Building for a purpose driven alone
Pants being worn while living the “American Dream”
Letting values turn a house into a humble home.

Pacifying possibilities putting pride aside
Thankful for gifts on a daily is a first
Serenity shadows confirming an eye stays dry
Born again as the Queen Eternal Earth…

Peace..!!

"Change 4 A Dollar"

Verbal exchanges exceeding the norm
Wondering about the what ifs in the rear
Eyes on multiple prizes is a way to reform
Closing the door behind me was always the dare.

Afraid to have anxiety anticipate anguish
Watching your seed blossom into a flower
Siamese sentiments evaporating in the mist
Banking the change from your last dollar.

Open relationships was the process taken
Reality biting on words discharged from my tongue
Promising that I’ll never let a heart hurt again
As this coin mature in time to be the “One”.

Newfound experiences to remember
Content with removing self from the market
Praying together so trials won’t hinder
The 1st female president back in my pocket…

"A Code of Silence"

Actions being mimed out of agitation
Thoughts practically rinsed in their final cycle
Swallowing swears justifying the frustration
Claustrophobic behavior shown…
When it doesn’t have to.

Wicks inflamed for a life of meditation
Reflective of habits prayed away
A legacy detoured in the right direction
While well-wishers whisper for better days.

Shhh…!!

In search for a library for liberation
Having words protest to escape my mouth
An uphill battle to overcome is what I’m facing
Peace within due to peace without.

Finally feeling the change in me
Conversation lurking for the patient one
Non-verbal discourse mending a mentality
A new relationship to “BOND” w/o a pun.

Can u hear me now..!!

"Goodnight"

A heart forked over as we begin to spoon
Whispering sweet somethings for nothing
Sexual butterflies escaping a cocoon
As foreplay stimulates areas I’m wanting.

Exploring a temple for all of its essence
Confident in pleasure positions to practice
Favors being reciprocated is a suggestion
Seduction escalating with every passionate kiss.

Moans wrestling w/sighs confirming what u like
Stroking seconds away till a soul surrenders
Wishing Teddy could tell the sun 2 turn out the light
Saying goodnight and until next time I enter…

Muuaahh…!!

"Brighter Days"

Clouded memories cherished in the previous chapter
No longer fixated on faults from the past
Tears of joy precipitated the storm soon after
Knowing your heart will be cared for @ last.

Conditioned to haul any burdens in the rear
Acknowledged for the beauty within
Brighter days and smiles reappear
Mutual feelings for a mate whose your true friend.

Daily sunrises blinding an eye once patched
Elated about a vow now endowed
Love viruses you weren’t afraid to catch
It’s a blessing from above so don’t ask how..

Smile Again..!!

(For all the relationships that have gone sour & you found self questioning self..)

"From Trangressions 2 Progression"

Bell-bottomed beliefs ordaining opinions
“Dream” speeches unprocessed in minds
Monuments being loitered by millions
While nooses & shackles are remembered in shrines.

Calloused conversations hydrating ambitions
Memories picked out of afros to cope
Testimonial hymns for all believers to listen
Surrendering to authors w/ the “Audacity of Hope”.

Multiple rainbows of races secreting sanctions
Pardoning partisan positions of power
1st amendment raising decibels for an advantage
Historic choices about to be made in the 11th hour.

Able to walk on a warfare once classed
Sunshine blinding thieves creeping @ night
Regurgitating crows Jim couldn’t fast
Exercising my right is only right…

Get Out & Vote…!!

"Can I Call U A Bytch"

Digging plots for another’s fortune

Conceit concealed during the darkest hour

Tail wagging as u pretend to be his best friend

Suggesting doggy-style so u can bark louder.

 

Tramp tendencies unable to scratch

Thinking you are the pick of the litter

Malicious menstruations bleeding on your catch

Unrepentant about the prey you left bitter.

 

Back in the kennel licking away the “Lady”

Nibbling on ‘Benjamin’ biscuits stored

Polka dots  removed might be the remedy

Even though u can’t tame something…

That walked on all 4s..

 

Come here..!!

 

I am...Selfless

Extended arms for times of despair

Sparing no expense despite the fact

Formative years muting a  inner voice in its lair

Curbed anxieties so a hand doesn’t retract.

 

I’m trying..

 

Unconditional love baselessly bestowed

Hindsight rectified in the process

Starving after a steady diet of crow

Operational defining acts of unselfishness.

 

It’s not easy..

 

Smiling knowing its reciprocated

Devoting resources to jump-start another’s handicap

Thank yous are the only things mandated

In the midst of constructing a bridge

That was gapped..

 

Your Welcome..!!

 

"Sunday..."

Anticipating a week of  demands

Message from an earlier sermon retained

Domesticated qualities revealing a “good “ man

Energy stricken as sunset is waned..

 

Meals being burnt for nourishment

Candle lit ambience in search of solace

Remote in hand for the moment

Shoes removed is something I suggest.

 

Let me rest now..!!

Am I Crazy...?

People looked @ u like u were crazy

believing ur sentiments would subside

sacrifices considered for he 

almost left a family asking why...??

Dire decisions to make points known

disregarding a potential legacy left behind

tears of a woman left alone

not understanding a fragile mind.

Heart now sutured for a reason

shredding fatal letters to be discovered

matured mentality is ur blessing 

loving self more than any lover...

You are not crazy..

Remember that.!!

(In response 2 a woman trying 2 overdose on pills 4 the luv of a dude..)

I'm Lookin'...

In search of a blog to read

to analyzing one's creative side

impressed by a variety of pens that bleed

venting sleeveless emotions w/pride.

Reciprocating a comment 4 support

constructive critcism for the betterment

conveying experiences once thought to abort

thinking this writer is worthy of a subscription...

Whose next..??

"Keep It Sexy"

Enhancing a height by a few inches

Curves impairing one’s sight

Flawless temple if I haven’t mentioned

Teasing when u know its not right

 

Constantly leaving something for the chase

Always having the upper hand

Sensual positions displayed with grace

A privilege for only her husband.

 

Ambiance replacing the needed physical

Solitary readings stimulating a mind

Admiring one’s sexuality whenever possible

Keeping stilettos on everytime..

 

Keep it sexy..!!

"A Vampire Bit My Pen"

Fatigue setting in w/my pad in hand

Peripheral sunrises in sight

Emotional fluids are in high demand

Flirting w/ a vampire out of spite.

Come get some…

 

Constant nods prior to each notation

Having a phobia of leaving my pen alone

Thought after thought is the repetition

Metaphors lap dancing now thinking

they are grown..

Aight…

 

Venting about mishaps on a daily

Impersonal odes to keep behavior in check

Nurturing a ballpoint like my baby

Not realizing bite marks on its neck..

Damn..!!

 

"The Fastlane"

Accelerating on the left side of traffic

Disregarding limits that are legal

The philosophy of life seeming so pragmatic

Insuring addictions perceived accidental.

Beep..

Beep..

Wanting others to conform to your behavior

Tailgating, expressing your lack of patience

Reckless ambitions chasing after that paper

Scrubless rides isn’t a coincidence.

Slow down..

Incarcerated behind a fantasy so far fetched

Appeasing friends validating an image

Gambling life away with one bet

Attempting to escape societal BONDage.

Hold on..

Signaling to move over on the right path

Braking for changes for the better

Apologetic words on ones’s behalf

Driving back hope to get that cheddar.

Ride with me…!!

 

 

"The Voicemail"

Another day of constant rings in my ear

Voices waking me with good intentions

Recorded message when my boss isn’t here

Locked in a cell daily remindful of prison.

 

Password breaking my code of silence

Snitching about everything once retained

Deletion pokes for lack of obedience

Livid cause I couldn’t recall a name.

 

Amnesia setting in from all that is saved

Lonely afraid of being by myself

“BOND”ing to a hip like a personal slave

Knowing I don’t want to be with no one else.

 

Back to collecting everything I think is important

Q-tipped ears for when you speak

Conceiving enough for 9 months without an abortion

Please leave your name and number @ the beep.

Thanks

"I'm Blind"

Romantic letters written in Braille

Coy smiles protecting a virgin heart

Ripened sentiments I’d rather conceal

Life’s a bytch living in the dark.

Feel me..

 

In need of a hand for guidance

Sensing someone is within reach

Future vows masked by a pretense

Of  ensembles marinating in bleach.

What’s that smell..

 

Graveyard conversations till dawn

Multiplying what ifs is the calculus

Blessed that nothing has yet to go wrong

You plus me is what we’ll practice.

I hear something..

 

Prepared to walk on my own

Butterflies double-dutching in my mind

Muaaahhs stewed w/passion being blown

Wondering who said love is blind.

Taste that…!!

"Locked Out"

Branded by a biography called history
Ordeals haloed from above
Understanding the facts remains a mystery
Introverted personality 
Just because...:(

Selective of a shoulder to brush
Shadow yearning for a date
Keeping shyt simple isn’t asking much
Rectified mistakes
Just in case…

Wireless whispers spoken aloud
Sentiments lured w/o a cast
Answering the why nots & the how
Resolved suspicions so
Just ask…

Conformed to a character once aloof
Hidden agendas keeping conscience in check
Raging hormones broadcasting the truth
Thought we were friends
Not just yet…

LET ME IN…!!!

"The Chase"

Blessed with an aura of sophistication

Habitual criticisms of hindsight

5 steps separating our connection

Occupied ring finger revoking my right.

Damn..

 

Questioning one’s love  by a carat

Assuming it’s only a façade

Politely inquiring about a status

Swagger conveying dialog w/pride.

Nice to meet u.

 

Able to confirm a single inclination

Exchanging math for future engagements

Gulping  away doubt about a situation

Walking away smiling for being persistent.

Told u..

 

Priorities rearranged that are objective

Discernment w/o a clue

Adhering to ideas

My perspective

Quietly disappearing on a rendezvous.

Shhh

"The Morning After"

Cocktails curtailing rational thinking

Last dance performed behind closed doors

Protection unraveled @ the beginning

Hoping released frustrations is the cure.

Why not..!!

 

Perfect strangers practicing sexual acts

Repercussions churning over time

Realizing a breakage upon a heightened climax\

Plan B tiptoeing across my mind.

Oh shyt..

 

Awaking to high stress levels

Brainstorming about steps needed to be taken

72hr clock ticking alongside this fable

Consequences yearning to be forsaken.

Who would have thought?

 

Trust being left in a capsule

Birds defecating on my head w/laughter

Living a life of abstinence if I have to

Thanking G-D for the “Morning After”.

Phew…

Never Again..!!

 

 

"My Birthday"

Appreciative of a blessing bestowed

48hrs  removed from an anniversary

A humbled heart that nobody knows

Celebrating w/those that understand me.

Feel me...

 

Wishes preceding candles blown

Optimistic of the next chapter in life

Smiles of contentment graciously shown

Daughter’s kisses via phone is my only gripe.

I’ll take that..

 

Anticipating a rendezvous to begin

Shades protecting sin city lights

Remy toasts amongst my closest friends

Grown man behavior is only right.

Why Not…!!

 

"My Hands"

Able to clutch what was meant to be held

All present equivalent to a dime

Callus removed and back to its original shell

In search for another to intertwine.

My hands.

Conditioned for a firm greeting

Moisturized maintaining a caramel complexion

Palm exposed for a psychic reading

Extended with lending intentions.

 

Manicured for appearance, with tips that shine

Steady seeking the eye of a needle

Clenched fist of power engraved in my mind

Enlarged reminded of the famous acquittal.

 

Ambidextrous with many gestures

Naked of any BONDing rings

Massaging pens as thoughts grace this paper

Placed together prior to me praying..

My HANDS….!!

 

"A Test"

A test is only a set a questions served to test

The testimony of lessons

Lessons some may feel is less important to lessen

The values of the less fortunate.

If not prepared, then your test will be a lesson

To test & see if the fortunate can overcome and answer any question.

Im ready…

Decisions are drawn based on the history of its origin

Stemming from its root so a choice can be made

Making any optimistic conclusion an option

I guess its time to incorporate everything retained..

It’s my choice…

Preferring it be oral so a voice can be heard

Rehearsed in a manner suited for a layman

Getting true definitions of my every word

Can u hear me??

Soft spoken with substance hard to imagine

Volumes of information orated with passion.

I’m feeling it now..

Knowing the fear of uncertainty has ebbed like a wave

Flowing effortlessly off the tongue

Exhibiting confidence to a confidant

Remembering all the transgressions when this begun..

It’s easy now…

This trial was a trial being tried for a tribulation.

Facing facts disguised behind a façade

Figuring out finally

Determination and ambition surpasses it all

Cause a conscience effort was implied..

I think I passed!!!

"The Echo"

Repeating words spewed off the tongue

Clarifying ideals thought to be whispered

Trying to create a BOND w/o a pun

Absent if there was only one listener.

Oh well..

 

Handballing sounds into mid-air

Monotone voice until frustrations grow

Squirts of lemon juice needed to prepare

Wondering where did everyone go?

Psst..’

Psst..

 

Shadowing a mouth in the dark

Hoarse from recitals sang to the choir

Preaching about a life that’s so stark

Knowing fellowship is something to admire.

Why Me?

 

Resignation papers signed for a final day 

Wishfully thinking this will all end

Overhearing company is own their way

Anticipating an arrival of that friend.

Finally..

 

I can rest now..!!  

"My Rendezvous"

Walking in circles @ a pace fit for a meet

Searching my provider in hopes of the perfect site

Kisses and bouquets waiting when we greet

Time to exhale some stress as I board this flight..

Phew…

A rendezvous!

Goapele in my speakers watching land beneath

Leaving all worries @ ground level

Buckled up peacefully about to dream how it will be

Paid attention to detail so there’s nothing else to tell you.

Closer..

Temperatures extreme much warmer than where I’m from

Clocked turned back cause it’s a matter of time

Donde estan usted viniendo de as I pass customs

Keeping it grown and sexy looking for one of a kind..

There she go..

Damn!

Candle lights followed by moonlights tower above

Reminiscing over Remy of days when I used to pursue

Perpetuating the sentiment of love

Inevitable getaway meant for the perfect two.

SShhhh...

My Rendezvous!!

"The Centaur"

Standing on all four gazing with precision
Distinctive appearance for the unknown
Cold-blooded during every expedition
Cautious of what half needs to be shown.

Perceived to be bred from the old school
Candid conversation while living a lie
Mind-altering cause of enlarged genitals
Preying on grass assumed greener 
On the other side..

Sensing that a mate is needed to pony up
Gaits are made with an agenda
Negative mythological thoughts to buck
The legacy of a gentleman will continue.

No longer looking for women to stampede
Carrying horseshoes in my hand 
Foal games conceded is the plea
Molars showing knowing I’m still a man.

"The Cheater"

Constant excuses for actions unknown

Forgetful of a union once taken

Breaking a heart that was once loaned

Digesting cake without even sharing.

 

Exploring journeys  down lusting highways

Crafty schedules for a devious mission

Optimistic that everything will be okay

Complaining mate was never there to listen.

 

Bipolar tendencies with one thing in mind

Disregarding the sight of another’s tear

NOTORIOUS games unable to rewind

Sacrificing a sentiment that can’t compare.

 

Secrets being stored which are bound to surface

In a perfect world I could blame my clone

Morally stricken losing all focus

Mediating possibilities of what went wrong.

 

Disagreeing on things that seemed so simple

Finally missing the one now gone

Echoes chirping “I tried to tell you”

The strength of two professing a “BOND”.

 

Now look @ u..!!!

 

 

"My Serenity Prayer"

God grant me the serenity to accept the things

Ignoring the fixations that have been a deterrent

Praying for happiness and all that love may bring

Canceling pulsating headaches from my worrying.

I cannot change;

Rehab!

Courage to change the things I can

Cradling this habit as  I nurture theses wounds

Descending from this high looking for a place to land

Brushing it under the rug with this  blessing broom

And  wisdom to know the difference.

Rehab!!

Living one day @ a time;

Enjoying one moment @ a time

Reliving miseries brought within my circle

Stripping my pride as I clear up a distorted mind

Apologizing to mentally stricken if I hurt you

Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace

Baptizing my soul and purifying my heart

Flushing all dependents that controlled me

Renewing relationships once sold in the dark

Rehab!!!

Taking, as He did, this sinful world

Digesting verses during daily readings

Having negative thoughts catapult when I hurl

Retaining new lessons for safe keeping

As it is, not as I would have it;

Rehab!!!!

Trusting that He will make all things right

Conceding that there is one set of footprints

Sustaining challenges from the devil out of spite

Understanding everlasting love doesn’t cost a cent.

If I surrender to His Will;

Rehab!!!!!

That I may be reasonably happy in this life

Forgetting the person that I used to be

Walking a path focused on the pearly gates in site

“ In Rememberance of Me”

and supremely happy with Him

Rehab!!!!!!

Forever in the next.

Amen.

 

 

"A Thought"

Thoughts can comfort a feeling

While feelings govern your mind

The mind dictates how you think

Thinking controls what you say

Saying what you mean leads to a mutual understanding

Understanding conveys happiness

Happiness heals all wounds

If bandage is on take it off  now and your heart will be @ ease.

Why not?

If conversation can open a door

That door is ajar until a force changes its position

Only if position is defined as a location

How about a stance, your way or mine

Mine rest in  bewilderment cause I think more than the average

Average ideas transcends into mediocrity

I’m only attracted to the best

Why not?

Do you think like me?

Thoughts can never be misinterpreted when mutual ideas have no boundaries

Fine lines are drawn to separate one

But to challenge one to cross @ their own risk

Jump

Why not?

Uncertain of who is on the other side

Sides are who you favor whether right, wrong or indifferent

Difference is Im different..

Do you think like me?

Why not?

Remember its just  “A Thought” of mine….

 

 

 

"My Smile"

A spontaneous reaction to the unpredictable

Showcasing a pearly structure once braced

Mute with nothing to tell you

Crutched cheekbones validating what has taken place.

My Smile..

Substituting thoughts that crossed my mind

Harboring an expression meant to be shared

Illuminating one’s day leaving darkness behind

Confirming pleasure stretched from ear to ear.

 

Polarizing minus the presence of a lens

Capturing a treasured moment for a  reason

Complimentary, negating any expense

Etched in place holding its position.

 

Optimistic in hopes of it being contagious

An effortless extraction of kindness from within

Perfect remedy for adversity that may surface

Simply realizing the cause of  its origin.

My SMILE…J

 

"The Insomniac"

Watching the 2^nd hand tick thru my 3^rd eye

Scrolling the menu viewing each channel

Tossing under the covers given it another try

Memoirs of an insomniac are consider fictional.

Believing sleep is the ‘Nephew’ of death

Darkness lurks throughout 

Heart calmly beating as I count every breath…

Sigh..

Sigh…

But nothing escapes my mouth.

Talk to me..

What should I do?

Whispering syllables as fingers tap on my chest

Once my mind stops thinking

Then my thoughts will never be processed.

Please..

Just a few winks.

Just a few winks

Am I missing something?

Glad my mind kept my body up to have a convo like this

Fighting to get back time already missed

For so long I felt like shyt.

You can now see a side of me that I never thought would exist.

It’s 5:15 a.m

Damn !!

Obituary written preparing for my funeral

Screaming ‘Uncle’ take me now

Been trying all night to listen to you

I said my prayers so point me to the clouds…

I’m ready!!

Hopefully this convo continues so my dreams are preserved

All my energy has left my body I’m totally spent

Tell my daughter that I love her

As I’m place in the museum of wonderment..

I’m @ peace now cause I’m with my two brothers..

I’m tired..

Goodnight…..:(

6:02a.m----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Blackjack"

Numbers accumulated in the game to win

Legal to purchase a beverage of your choice

Developed a grown mentality so life can begin

Respected perspectives carrying a strong voice.

Blackjack..

 

Engulfing adolescence forecasting the next chapter

Judging your own trials that have  been dealt

Hindsight is always ideal the morning after

In pursuit of a happiness over time that’s heart felt

 

Anticipating a hit to secure a better hand

Patience embedded as your bank slowly doubles

Confidence in a plan that’s in high demand

Anxious for results disregarding a potential shuffle.

 

Embracing adulthood and the immediate future

Privy of what is still to come

Independent dreams healed with a suture

Celebrating the digits, two and one…

BLACKJACK!!!

 

"My Eyes"

Shifting left and right taking note of  the unnoticed

Raising flags in between any suspicions

Prize is within my grasps so I maintain my focus

Still a lot to be done seeking a distant mission..

My eyes!

Protected by a lens to shelter what’s inside

Unexpected situations accompanied by frustrations

Crocodiles tears packed with pride

Moistening my cheeks cause of bad intentions.

It’s ok

These are my eyes…

Weathering storms as I umbrella my heart

Conscience of life long birthmarks on the surface

Embracing friendships I’m about to embark

Open-minded with a Kleenex for a purpose

Just in case.

My eyes!!

Hypnotizing my opposition with a candid stare

Deciphering the manufactured and genuine

Critiquing everything outside this perfect square

Visioning how this “BOND” will end.

Things are clearer now…

My EYES!!!

"A True Friend"

Adopted into a role accepting many responsibilities

Safeguarding secrets one is willing to share

Conditioned to bear the burden of  self-pities

Available upon request with an open ear.

 

An alter ego with an ego

Carpooling similar dreams in life

Understanding all that is inevitable

Checking positions that don’t seem right.

 

Trust and honesty are the prerequisites

One is only needed till the end

Thoughtful but this is an act of selfishness

Chosen hoping I won’t have to do so again.

 

Casting shadows upon each other

Watching a rear with an eye of an eagle

A blessing from above has been delivered to ya

Withstanding any signs of betrayal.

 

Irreplaceable for reasons left unspoken

Embodied with morals and values so profound

A shoulder in sight for a heart that may be broken

Always assuring your feet are on solid ground.

 

Find yours...

I have mine…!!!

"The Bridge"

Fearless of  all the pressures I have to overcome daily

Expecting my spitting image’s hands to intersect

Lotion my extended arms with tar so burns are 2^nd degree

Naked to the world only getting our feet wet.

Brrr

The Bridge!

Abandoned by engineering parents @ birth

Standing on our own learning how to survive

Paying a toll validating my worth

Being pimped by the city for rest of our lives.

Working 24/7 365 days a year

All my complaints seem to fall on a deaf ear.

Crying..:((           

Whose next?

Servicing cars, trucks, bikes even loco-motive trains

Wishing mother nature can bathe me in her rain.

Crying..:((

Being played like a game of cards

Must have been dealt a bad hand from the beginning

Stuck in a lose lose situation from the start

Never having the chance of winning.

Bridge!!

Easing travels being abused in the process

Envious thoughts debating whether to set a trap

Collapsing to river floors leaving people in distress,

Cause all I ever wanted to do is Bridge a gap.

The BRIDGE!!! 

"Cover Up"

When you look in the mirror what do you see?

You or a reflection of who you aspire to be?

Being that a reflection has blemishes is it really you?

So why is a mirror used to help you put make-up on the way you do?

Are you afraid of you?

Afraid to reveal the blessings passed on to you...

Cover up..

Hibernate within..

Come out of your shell when it's to your liking

Liking that others like you for who you're not

Do you blame the mirror or you?

Critiquing flaws taking away from your heritage

Short term satisfaction for the love of an image

Thought you were proud?

Disowning self from a culture is belittling family pride

It's like breaking a branch off a tree with unlimited rings inside.

A weed looking good next to the stump knowing in due time

Enhancing the physical leaves the natural behind..

Feel better?

Cover up..

Continue with the make-up to make up for that insecurity

Looking for a compliment for internal reassurance

Avoiding the awareness of one's self-pity

Assuming role of ugly duckling doesn't stand a chance.

Thought you were proud...

Cover up then..!!

"Fightin' Cancer"

Invading matter that matters over time

Transforming into something a bat couldn't see

Detected early so it remains benign

Counting blessings while down on my knees.

Pray with me...

Destructive traits hailing death in a bottle

Recycling emotions into tanks that are septic

Faith mounting any percentage appraised cynical

Blaming abnormalities found to be genetic.

DAMN..!!

Radiation waving @ cells within reach

Adversity defining character in need of support

Reciting lessons conveyed in speech

Strength prayers answering DEVIL knocks @ the door.

Gulp..

Short-handing an obituary for a rainy day

Diagnosing a lump in life so fond

Oncologist confirming everything is okay

Family relieved that there is still a "BOND".

Phew..

Precautionary screenings avoiding a recurrence

Stature Sapped from therapy that's hectic

Doves constantly flying in my presence

Knowing I Never Would Have Made It..

Without YOU..

I'm Stronger...!!
