(2013)
Sometimes all I think about is yo… When anybody else could do They send texts, pictures, complim… On any given day Yet still I sit alone and wonder
Ten months ago I met the man of m… Magic I’ve dare not believed Never my story, always supporting… But in that moment, the lights cam… Man did I run fast
Images of lust evoked Remembering your touch Saturate my desire Hold me in your clutch Cultivate my body
I want to live in a world where I… Copacetic, not a people-pleaser Witty, not a smart-ass Opinionated, not lippy Assertive, not bitchy
Shed over a million tears for you Need something new I’m broke Grief weighs down my soul Can’t find a place with you whole
Sweat trickles down my spine Panting breath, your hands in mine Straddled tight I rock the boat Waves crash in rising note Tongues collide, organs swell
Say, can you see A home for the brave! A land for the free No place for a grave Stars burn bright
I am a sister We share the same history In this together loving life’s mys… I am a daughter Difficult often challenging times
So afraid, I’ve never felt so low So failed, nowhere left to go I keep praying, I keep saying But nothing has changed Are we all at the bottom
Boomerang fate Precipitated by the boomer’s Capitalistic hate Broken families Stolen nest eggs
Catch me if I fall Hold me when I stand Be there when I die And we’ll walk hand in hand And if by chance your praying fail…
Confused and stressed Broke I rest less Exhausted like the fumes Of old world manifest Bills and pills
