17 inspiring love & life poems
As we enter spring on March 21, 2022 I would like to share a short collection of poems from the heart. These poems were written over the past two years as a way to self heal and self reflect. Enjoy.

The deeper I dig
The more I find
A woman so divine
It was always there, lying dormant in her heart like a spare, tire
Her light shines bright
even through the night
When times are hard
She puts up a fight
She’s a phenomenal woman
In spirit and sight
She dreams of a brighter place
through space and time
BASIC
Local hawtie all she care about is body
because the media shows no other
now she’s full of insecurities and bad memories
looking to the filter to mask her impurities, her natural beauty
No home remedies
Just bad lucid energy
Saying she don’t care what they think
But knowing deep, it’s why she can’t sleep
Walking around in monster feet
Judging souls on body rather than speech
Basic like a white tee
Basing her worth on being wifey
Basically losing herself to be fly

This world is small
This world is sad.
It has been compressed into a keypad
Where emojis control our emotions and celebrities govern us.
This world is lucid and out of control.
3RD GRADE LAY
I miss you
I miss you so much
The real you, the old you
The you that created ME.
I miss you
I miss your optimistic views, and the light you brought into any room.
I miss your energy, and thirst for life.
Come back I know you’re still alive, hiding deep inside my eyes.
CROSS ROADS
Choices are a big part of life.
They determine how many steps forward or how many steps to the side or backwards you make.
Choices lead to legacies, foundations
Hunger and or starvation
Everyday is a choice filled with choices.
OTHER HALF
Its crazy how you can just meet someone and you click
It wasn’t forced. It wasn’t planned. Just instant.
My first time seeing you was instant sparks
I knew, you had made me feel something so strong
I felt the click buckle over my stomach like a seatbelt
I felt my heart take a break
Its crazy how you meet someone and you click
They become your favorite new fix.
D TO NYC
It’s close to two am and all I can think about is you… and what we should have done more of.
I wish I kissed you more
I wanted to kiss your soul, heal very bruises and cure every bone.
I still think about kissing you, and how I should have kissed you more…
That was my mistake.
I was afraid if I kissed you too long or too much you would run away.
I still want to kiss you more each and every day.
GAY
Never have I ever been so GAY
Until you entered my life and took my breath away
I didn’t know I could feel like this ever again
Never have I ever been so GAY
And now I smile more everyday.
LOVED
To all the men I’ve loved
Some of you I loved
Some of you you were just lust
Some of you I admired
And others just a thrust
You all had a part of me and to you, that I give
Understand that my energy holds a vessel
Of you and your friend.
To all the men I’ve loved
Be it bad or be it good
I appreciate you being there
While I grew into womanhood
PAPER CUT
The hurting doesn’t stop
in fact it shape shifts
Like a candle in the dark
It’s a frequent pain that sway your perception
A candle melting to release, melting to be set free
The hurting doesn’t stop, unless you hear it out
OVERBOARD
I’m drowning in thoughts of sorrow
Sinking into the darkest part of my psyche
I don’t believe in my own light
I’m drowning
Surrounded by fish in the sea
They all stare and watch as my body begins to sink
I’m drowning
I can’t catch my breath
The past on my ankles, my future on my risk
Holding me down
Dead weights that’s hard to lift
I’m drowning
In uncharted waters, lifes a fucking trip
ROPE BURN
Letting go is not always easy
However, letting go can be necessary
If you pull a rope too long you can get rope burn, causing instant pain to the skin.
The friction created during the back and forth has now hurt you.
Hurt you for not letting go.
I’m in pain because I did not know when to let go
I did not want to let go
I did not know how to let go
So, the universe gave me rope burn
EARLY MORN
2 am thoughts got my mind racing
I’m holding on to memories, that I am now facing
Please stop…stop
My mind from racing
I’m tired of negotiating
My body feel like radiation
Dealing with emotional feelings
I am contemplating
Who the fuck are you to tell me how to face it
I’m setting up my boundaries
No more complacent
Speaking is my truth, no more replacing
No More empty spaces
No longer adjacent
Becoming one with the soul is my inspiration
My number one goal is live life in celebration
RETURNED
Gracefully turning down your deceit
Trusted you with my all
My everything
What was mine was yours, shit was deep
Don’t got time for the weak
You was supposed to be mine
My everything
Instead you put me on the back line cause you never wanted to be mine
My everything
My only need
My perfect treat
Z is for Zen
I think it’s your presence that makes me feel connected to you the most
Or is it because you can make a room feel like it was made for just us
Or that nothing else matters at the moment but us.
It’s the fact that you don’t even have to touch me for water to flow and my heart to grow
Your energy
Your vibe is zen
Its peace
Its my drug of choice
That I would happily indulge in everyday if you let me.
Drunk in love is the feeling of me around you
Feeling weak because the connection is so real, it’s so true
Lifetimes of chasing a soul so pure
People would millions just to endure
You are the moment and feelings that many pray for many lifetimes in advance
Can I feed you again?
DAY ONE
Since day one she ain’t wanna be saved
she rather be a slave to the game and look paid
She rather change up her shape for the fame, instead of her brain
Since day one she ain’t wanna be saved
F.U.C.K.I.N
Breast in hand
Hand on breast
Best believe you were my best
Lips so fine, lips are glue
Lip my line, lips on you
Kiss my mind, you speak so fine
More divine, you feel so kind
Up my neck, then to my breast
Hold your breath
Release whats next
Kiss my spine, rub my line
Ears on lips, lips on ears
Whisper to me, it’s all so clear
You are mine and I am yours
Connection bound we share one cord
