My Self Worth

He didn't know my worth.
So l put myself first.
I loved me more.
I had no intention to entertain him anymore.
Had he appreciated me he’d see l'm special.
Instead he tried to depreciate a queen with a lot of self esteem.

A queen knows her...

Time is Money

You’ve got but one chance to work with
me.
After that don’t bother me.
My time is precious, my craft is expensive.

Time is money, sweet like honey.
Give me my sweet treat then you can lay my rhymes to a beat, but for now take a seat.

An Angry Woman

I got a bullet named bitch
Cause I itch to throw your body in a ditch

I hear you bought a gun for protection
Cause you know of my intentions

I got your son for safe keeping
If you don’t face me
He’ll lay in this basement sleeping

I walk in the light!

Back up Satan! Cause I walk in the light. I’m feeling out a sight. He’s not going to be a part of my fight. Cause I stay in the light.

When he sees me coming he makes a sharp right.

Cause I’m God’s child. God guides me by the hand. Now I...

My mother’s hands

My mother’s hands. The hands that nurtured me, cared for me. At times I wish I could be held again as though I were a child. My safe place, in her hands. My most trusted person. She would never betray me. Soft, warm, comforting hands.

Can you love me?

I’m a gentle soul.
Can you love me in the ways of old?
Can you hold me when it’s cold?
Will you stay with me when I’m old?

Can I touch your lips with my finger tips?

Can you lay with...

Kiss

Is it possible to miss lips you’ve never kissed?

His lips I miss.
I wait for the opportunity to kiss his lips.

It would be the longest, softest and most sensual kiss he’d ever get.

A kiss to remember.

If I never kiss him again it’s...

The aroma that still lingers in my bed

Softly, slowly taking my time

You made me feel what I’ve never felt before

Soft and Sweet

Like warm bath water you’d want to immerse yourself in her beautiful brown skin


Two bodies making contact like the waves in the ocean
Oooo what motion

She was soft, she was sweet

Roy

I saw a dead man cry.
There were tears in his eyes.
He knew he was about to die.
His loved ones kissed him goodbye.

There was no more time for him to cry.
He laid there and died.

As his soul left his body he reminisced on what he will...

19 Angels

This world is crazy.
I pray for the little children’s safety.

Children need to be loved and protected.
That’s what’s expected.

To fear a bullet is not the plan.
How do you learn how to read and write
When you have to fear for your life?

Writing While I Mourn

This is the way I mourn.

Writing for the forlorn.

Writing to heal my internal wounds .

Writing uplift’s my mood.

What would I do without this ability?

I’d be like a dancer with no agility.

I’d be like an artist without an easel.

You know the sound of the beating of my heart.

I hope you love me just the...

From She to Him

He was born a she.
He fought with his inner demons to retain his self esteem.
As a child he was bullied and called an it. They filled his face with spit.

All he wanted was to identify with his true self.
Mentally a man physically a woman.

The Lady Sings

Lady day singing the blues.
Why are we still hanging from trees?
My brothers and sisters still aren’t free.

Trees baring strange fruit.
Let the Lady sing.
Let the people know how it stings.

The life of the black man hasn’t changed.

God is needed in the hood

If my heart could speak

I wish my heart could sing.
It would tell you what it really thinks.
It would sing you a love song.
It would tell you my most sincere sentiments.

I’d follow my heart instead of listening to my
mind.
I’d press my lips against your heart...

Love or Lust?

Love and lust
Which do you trust?
Love is a must.
Trust or lust?
To lust you I’ve got to trust you.

To love me there must be intimacy.
With love and intimacy you can lust over me.

Lust is temporary.
Love has longevity.

My mind has rhymes

Allow me to educate your mind with my rhymes.

I have nothing to hide.
I have a coherent mind.
My mind dictates my rhymes.

My logical mind searches for answers.
Logic tells me my heart is foolish at times.
So I listen to my mind.

My mind plays tricks on me.

I’m trying to sleep,
But my thoughts are too deep.
My mind takes me to a place,
where I need to contemplate.

My thoughts race.
slow down my mind needs to recuperate.

My mind plays tricks on me.
I forget what I say,
I forget what I do.

Forgive me Father for all my sins.

Hoping I’m not here standing alone.

Waiting for my Heavenly Father to let me in and forgive all of my sins.

Big mama’s got a gun.

Never underestimate her ability to shoot.
She’s about her business and her loot.

Her gift of gab is like money in the bag.
