Best Ortega Poems

Slim gifted and black
Born and bred in Volta
Crawled from beneath no slack
One dream to be a better
Of who I was yesterday an update
Gone through the white the black
Still standing firm an upgrade
Against all odds maneuvering
All rough paths no staggering
Winter may come still no shivering
Got to...

A notice appeared in the paper recently with the names and faces of eight men who have a combined wealth of $426 billion. According to Oxfam International, in 2015 this would have equaled the amount of wealth held by half the world’s population, the poorest...

I am your master.
A glorious disaster,
Your beast on string
A crippling disaster
You are my puppet,
my prisoner...my slave.
Your decaying brittle bones beneath shallow frozen graves...
And NO
...I can’t explain it,
Its just a surge
...It’s an urge.
It’s the beast within me.
My instinct to purge....
Ahhh yes...
I taste it,
I’m obsessed...
your praying to...

Still being drank all throughout whatever heat of the day.

Like the boxcar Children Daniel Boon and Nancy Drew being read to the little ones,
Credences' Have You Ever Seen the Rain, and Fleetwood Mack's Songbird, along with a little
Fernando Ortega Nearer My God To Thee, the...

In this dark cage of Lies,
I'm dangerously trapped inside.
The butterflies have flown away,
No longer does this soul sway.
Anger, Pains, Hatred,
Now my heart is left damaged.
Deception, Betrayal, Lies were thrust upon,
Still a mask of happiness I put on.
Agony, Depression, Insanity I try to hide,
All the blames...

On the side of an old building 
On a storefront wall 
There is a narrative painting 
Of young Icarus' fall 
Angels now visible are blowing 
A trumpet of blue light 
And the Bronx soul here longing 
While wax melt into night. 
His name was Ortega,...

Harsh words,
 And violent blows, 

Hidden secrets nobody Knows,

 Eyes are open, 
Hands are fisted.

 Deep inside I'm Warped And Twisted. 

So many tricks,
 And so many lies.

 Too many whens,
 And too many whys.

 Nobody's special, 
Nobody's gifted.

 I'm just me,
 Warped and Twisted.

I TURN TO DARKNESS...
When tensions in the mind push splinters through my soul And into strangers ears I pour my woes.. When grief and sorrow shudder thriough my walls. And whether all is lost I cannot tell  When what is in or out i...

I often find myself alone,
In dark thoughts of my grey tombstone-
I am silent in my own dark solitude,
Drowning in my own loneliness,
The spirits of the dead,
Who stood in life before me,
Are again in death.
I feel there presents surrounding me,
Their shadows overtaking me,
I need not be...

After surviving a walk through fire there is little else that can burn around me for I am free and it is very hard to upset me for I've been to Hell and back and close to Heaven's doors as well there is very little...

The day you died you took me with you,
The way you lied shook me black and blue.

The sorrow you felt, I sure felt it too,
Are tomorrow dreams won’t come true.

All the good hello's turned into dying goodbye's,

All the sorrows burned holes into my dying ...

BEHIND THE SMILE
Just another sinking tear
In this river full of pain
Racing fast to nowhere
A world that's gone insane
Forced to live without you
Teased by fool's romance

But it's alright you'll never know
I'm living dead but I don't show
Empty words and hollow eyes
Behind the smile I hide my...
