Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

A Bad Man Good Heart

A bad man good heart 
Look at the mirror
Did you see that face there 
Am sure your recognize it 
It is yours
Yes is your resemblance
Yet you cant Denny your personality 
Look that your face
Talk to yourself check your life 
Out there you dangerous
At home you are a good father
What happens to the kids you 
Refuse to grow
What happens to the family you shattered
So before you act innocent

A bad man good heart
He protect his own 
Secure his family
Make them happy
Yet he is a gun man 
Whose daughter is precious to him 
But out there he is a monster

Marikate Kingston April 13, 2023 at 10:58 PM Hello. This poem is so profound. It resonates with me. I wrote a short one called, Too Bad and another I titled, The Sadness Behind her Smile. Yours and mine have similar themes, "A bad man with a good heart" an oxymoron. I get it. What a good writer you are and I am glad to have found your poem surfing around.
