Be careful who you give you heart to
Make sure they know its true value
When your heart rules your head
And feelings are running deep
The highs and lows of love
One minute your heart is aching
Full of love, then its hurting from the pain
And you feel you never want to be
In love again
Never want to feel the pain

The man without a shadow
he tries to forget
he may have his victory
but the war rages on
hes losing all knowledge
through the rain a tear drops
shoeless he walks for miles
like a raging storm he never stops
with every whimper, wish and whisper
he still walks alone, with out a shadow.

I know what they say!
How shall she consume these days, on top of your touch of grey
Your soul tarnished nearer fading light and fast approaching night
But oh so very right this our hearts housed in loves beautiful light
And although stiff you’re standing walk and smile as gentle as we talk
In walk of youth my love has come un-caged and knows no other age
Read more: I know what they say!

green sourness,

My stomach feels full of itself,
Swollen from panty line to breast line,
Hot the sun burns my skin,
Icy the rain.
Dissolving me like minty gum.

The sun rounds up the dark
And levers up the morning sky
Soft sounds penetrate the ground
Clarity marries and then you find
Priceless paintings on transparent eyes
.
All you pen heads gather round
Drop the garments you have found
Show the world what you’ll wear
Bare yourself among your peers
Digging down into that underground

Do not feel
What you believe
Happiness flowing one way
My heart is empty
Still breathing
But not living life
Weight of unhappiness
Weighs heavier everyday
Time ticking by
Running out

A sick taste settles in the back of my throat,
Pronouncing itself like bitter mucus,
And my heart aches,
A dull throbbing hurt.
Boom-boom.
Boom-boom.
Life hangs in the air a fragile balance,
Between remembrance and mortality,
The push of the tide coming in,
The inevitability of it pulling back out,
Read more: The show must go on.

Its seems all anyone ever does lately is talk
And still says nothing at all
Like a great glossy ad pitch
And not the real stuff
No instead its pseudo-swag
Or regurgitated intellect
Behind fans of throwing shade
All trying to bolster a delapidated ego
Doesn't anyone ever mean what they say
Or even say what they mean anymore?

I don’t belong here
Here by default
Ancestors stolen
Free will taken
My true destiny
Has been changed
History rearranged
Concrete jungle
My heart yearns for escape
Hills and valleys

Our bodies may have been set free
But our minds are still in captivity
Educated by a corrupted system
True black history should
Be in our children’s curriculum
We have to educate our children with the truth at home
Then the systems words can not take hold
We as black people need to understand we are all African
Stripped of our true identity
Kidnapped and placed on negative land

What makes you think you have the right
To end a life
You think you higher than the most high
Only he can decide who lives or die
You never give it so how can you take it
Value of life lost
Wasting your own life with your
wrong doings
You think there is not a price
To pay for your wrongful ways
So young and full of hate
