Best Walk A Mile In My Shoes Poems


Believe Me

'Believe me' 

It's the disbelief that I most hate
Being told that I exaggerate
When life's already so unfair
I know most people hardly care

Whether it's pain I share or my lack of sleep 
Most my woes; don't share I keep
Finally I think you understand
Till you dismiss me once more with a flick of your hand

Won't you try, just pretend to believe
When I share with you my heart on sleeve
Not many I love know real me
Yet to 'strangers' online I at last feel free
It's true no one will share my blues
Unless they walk a mile in my shoes

'Believe me' ~ by Victoria Payne

Not What It Seems

You believe i'm happy when you take a look at me
But i'm in so much pain you see,
Just take a glimps in my eye's and
You will see
My looks are not what they seem to be

You believe I live a great life
Don't lie, I heard your whispers and
I seen your stares
Just walk a mile in my shoes and 
You will see
My life is not what it seems to be

I heard you think I got it all
Well you heard wrong
My life is so incomplete
Your the one with the dad, not me
Your the one with the friends
So tell me why you hate me when
I'm not at all what I seem to be

Walk a Mile In My Shoes

I know this is for comments so I want to start out by telling all a story:

I am a brain surgery savior and it stinks at spelling even with spell check on the computer because if you don't hit the right button to start with the spell check can't help you get it but if your memory has been cut open know one knows and even I can't remember what I should type so I try everyday. 
My grammer stinks but I think living behind this screen has help me deal with
my cancer better than any other Doctor out there.

SO if ya'll say anything that I don't like I pull up my big girl panties and get right 
back out there and try again because stick and stones are all that can hurt me
and my daddy told me when I was but a little gril opions are like a**holes everybody's gotta's them and some of them stink so just don't breathe so deep.


Love Hurts

LOVE HURT'S

        I want you to love me from deep within,
      not from the love that going to hurt me again.
        Not the love the going to make me cry,
    because the guy I choose to have in my life.
         Not the love that make's me bleed,
     not the love that make me cry on my knee's.
         I don't want the love that blacks my eye's,
          and everyone has to ask me why?
     Why do I have to lie to my family, and friend's?
            Just because you hit me again.
            All the love I have gave to you,
           is this really the best you can do?
      I made you feel like the star you are,
      how come I can't be your shining star?
       I've loved you when you have yet to love your self,
           but I'm the one with the busted mouth.
             Having to feel the back of your hand,
                makes you even less of a man! 
          I want to see you hit a man in that same way,
         the way you hit and treat me every day!
   It's not going to be easy having to feel the way I do,
     when he takes your man hood from you!
      You make me regret ever ****en with you!
        Then you can come walk a mile in my shoes,
           when he straight *****es you!
      Remember revenge live's in us all,
      and I can't wait for the day to see you fall.
      Don't worry because you weep what you sow.
              What you do in the past,
        alway's come back to haunt your ass!
         If you don't want to get hit on,
          I advise you don't hit on me!
     Because someone is alway's bigger and badder,
               that you just can't beat! 
  If you a real man you'll step to a man in the street's,
   and stop hitting women you already know you can beat.
     You know deep down your a bigger ***** then me,
               So step to a real man,
            and feel the heat of defeat!

Walk a Mile In My Shoes

Let's go.....

I'm on a rough route to a righteous destination,
Tormented by the obstacles, blockin' my path
So I'm embracin',

All my miscreant guilt, blended up with my sorrows,
So I follow,
what lives in my heart
but I step wisely because somethings in life
are definitely hard to swallow,
and my motto's,

"knuckle up & search for the prize",
I see the world with clear vision
but evil sights are hurtin' my eyes,

What's the remedy for this Black Rain?,
Will success make my grey sky blue?
Is my pain ordained?,

I'm blessed with the  breath o' life
so I communicate with my Savior,
I thank him for everything he gave us,
and God made us,

In his own image, 
and the Holy Bible's the best book to read
but somedays
I still grimace through my scrimmage,

And somedays, I'm still drip dryin'
in the devils thunder,
and those days filled with blunder,
make me hesitate & wonder,
do I have what it takes
to keep me from goin' under?,

They say we're treadin' in the last days
I'm tryin' to conquer the beast,
My good out weighs my bad
so I feel I'm winning, because my minds at peace

Blues

9/17/18
"Blues""

They don't even notice a new you
Ooooo
They keep looking at me like I'm cuckoo
Boo-hoo
Who knew
I'd have such bad juju
All that's left is a doll used for voodoo

Any day now I'm due to
Evolve into Mewtwo
Then I'll be a guru

Just love me,  since very few do
Nothing I said is voulu

I’m looking for a nice girl that can dance in a tutu
Her name doesn't have to be Lulu


Taking a cruise
Got the blues
My grasp on reality, I'm starting to lose
No longer minding my P’s and Q’s

Continuing to booze
And snooze
Had to pay my dues

Can't follow the clues
Must be missing a few screws

Heart beaten black and blue
An endless ooze
Of blood followed by a bruise

Not a single soul whose
Able to walk a mile in my shoes

No longer amused
Or Enthused

At a rapid rate I consume
Substances being abused
Aghh, I'm so confused
To tell the truth, it's of no use
Because I've always been doomed
Overhead a black cloud loomed
And there was endless gloom

I Improved
Then fell back and lost my groove

She sent me nudes
Of much more than her boobs
To me and ten other dudes

Then she had an attitude
And wanted to feud
Because I wasn't in the mood
To put up with bull, go ahead and call it rude

Whew!
For you
I made more than room
And then boom
There you were marrying a man born with a silver spoon
Able to literally buy you anything underneath the stars and moon

Picking flowers that recently bloomed
To whom
It may regard, may this lead you to a boon
With something so very opportune

Got to keep making moves
After what I choose
All while sampling different foods

Nearby a lagoon
Just following my own tune
Looking up at the moon
While atop a dune

Time has once again proved
That from the picture, I've already been removed

It's okay because this afternoon
It  will all be over soon


Premium Member The Half Life of a Setting Sun ,1993

Preamble: In the half life of a setting sun, time travel exists.  In the naked singularity of a blackhole, when a sun is truly dying, you become what you want to.

This is the song. 

Born of the night, in the sky's own light. 
Left to the sun, to die on the run.
Born of the stars, near the ballroom of Mars.
My life on the run,  the half life of a sun.

Chorus:
We know that it's ending soon,
We know the band's out of tune.  We know.

Slave to the earth,  to my death, from birth.
Life on the edge?  Have you "the Edge"?
Loved till I lost,  such a cost.
My feelings are numb, the half life of a Son.

From the start of it all, I've run with the ball.
You must pay your dues?  Walk a mile in my shoes. 
For better or worse,  I've turned to my verse.
I've seen what's to come,  the half life of a sun.

It's a hurricane of pain, to know the insane.
Begin at the start, find a key to my heart.
In all that's been said, I should have been dead.
To all that I've done, the half life of the Son.

For the song that is sung,  my gold not yet spun,  
We've not yet begun, goodbye and for one,
The Half Life of the Sun.

Behind the Bars Incarceration

Can a man tolerate an incarcerate?

Madly in love with a madwoman

Throughout the investigation; Prior to the incarceration she's reflective

Two years on the verge of being wasted like Iron Maiden single "Wasted Years"

Additional two daughters she conceived not to mention she needs help supporting her two daughters "Homeless Agencies"

Two daughters means double the "Needs and Wants"

Two daughters means twice repeating the lady "Do's and Don'ts"

Repeatedly, she crosses her legs like a foreleg mantis as if in prayer

She prays for financial support, not willing to be a Hoe at Davenport (Davenport Hotel)

Scrolled through her cellular contacts and called close relatives her normal emergency contacts

Asked Steve, Keith, and her lovers longtime friend Daisuke he's a Japanese

All three smacked their teeth

Ironically Daisuke smacked his teeth on account of in Japanese the meaning of Daisuke is "BIG HELP"

As a mighty breeze passes a cry in the wind passed a message," Perpetually I'll Bless You like a allergic symptom sneeze

Stressing continuously over occurrences its mind-boggling she doesn't believe

Biting a forbidden fruit the fruit of lies first like Eve

Eventually she deceives her incarcerated lover and becomes aware of nakedness after she sinned

An act of independence, survival, an act of the Holy Bible

A social science woman is she her sexual desire an experiment, Puzzling for a woman to make known to a incarcerated man she broke her commitment

In no way shape or form a mistake, only a meant, you went along with it didn't it

After she risked everything and made known the fearful news both were thinking walk a mile in my shoes

But that gut-feeling she must of had waiting on his comment

FACT: He was wondering what Bruh "Cum Meant"

Did you do this out of shortage of cents or perfects?

Impossible to shop for love I guess taking care of our two daughters was where the money was spent

Baby my point of view is I'm pointing butterfingers at (U)

Tell the world I'm coming home as you already knew, and maybe we can work it out something brand-new, because Carrie KaeKae James after I read this poem I changed my mans point of view
- Loverboi

Question You

Why you hate me?
I don’t hate you.
I try to do everyone right even a damned fool.
Why hate me boo?
You want to walk in my shoes.

You don't love me like I love you.
We were close once best friends in school.
Why you hate me boo?
You can't walk a mile in my shoes.

We aren't friends anymore.
No amends you have for it.
I do not know what your ailments are.
We no longer share the same ideas.

Why you hate me boo?
I am not one to make up with you.
We do not have to speak from herein.
Your problems are your delirium.

~Why you hate me Boo...~

Walk a Mile In My Shoes

I turn the television on to hear Black Lives Matter.
Our lives have mattered since birth.
Walk a Mile in My Shoes
being watched by security while shopping in the mall.
My brother being pulled over because he fits a description.
   Walk a Mile In My Shoes
The color black makes us targets daily.
    Walk a Mile In my Shoes
The blight of my sisters and brothers we're far from the mountain top, by any means necessary.
  Walk a Mile in My Shoes
doesn't stand for not just us should stand for justice.
Come on mow this isn't new Brother Malcolm, Dr. King, Nelson Mandala were fighting for this cause.
 People of every nation, creed and or color take the blinders off.
Walk a Mile In my Shoes

Words Ill Never Say

2 my daughter's im sorry I thought I could hold on longer.
Pain has become my rain and the feeling of failure stronger.
Depression is just a weapon that karma uses to conquer.
So this is my final message there's nothing I have to offer.
The love In my heart depleted I feel like my soul is empty.
Not saying im suicidal but why dose it sound so tempting.
I wish things could be different but heavens ordered my torture.
If I make it to heavens doors my pass will be null and voided.
2 my daughter im sorry but daddy was just 2 broken.
Place a rose in my casket and tell them that they can close it.
Tears fall from my face my faith is forever frozen.
Angels lead me 2 heavens gates just to show me they'll never open.
My prayers are answered silent struggles witnessed with laughter.
The ending is almost near so why not approach it faster.
Some will say im a coward and death is a easy answer.
Walk a mile in my shoes and maybe you'll understand it.

He Touched Me

I Sat Alone on a bench one day
 All Reason for Living Gone,
 When a Stranger Sat Beside Me,
 with a Beard and Hair Too Long.
 
 I Was Soon Absorbed in Misery Again,
 Not Knowing That I Cried.
 The Tears Dripped off My Chin
 and I Wished  I Could Have Died.
 
 His Voice Was Kind and Gentle,
 So I Felt No Need to Flee.
 He Asked Me What Was Wrong,
 to Share May Set Me Free.
 
 I Said, "Walk a Mile in My Shoes
 and Feel this Unbearable Pain.
 Face All the Problems I  Have,
 and Feel the Weight of My Shame."
 
 He Said My Troubles Would Go Away
 as the Wind Blows Away the Sands,
 Then a Wondrous Joy Swept Through Me,
 as He Touched Me with Nail Scarred Hands.

Four Ladies

My mom raised me
She fed me
She cared for me
My mom is a saint
Raising five boys…
How can you say she ain’t?

My wife is nuts!
She is worried she may get laid off,
Yet she is hoping she will :\
She worries too much
But takes it all in stride
She is so strong and so weak at the same time
Dealing with all the stress
Yet the dog farting is too much!

My daughter is mine
She is too much like me, 
Only more so
She doesn’t worry enough
Life brings what comes along
Her heart is full of song
But it’s mostly metal and punk and rap
And I just don’t get that crap
        My daughter is also an addict you see…
Which is hard for us to understand, you see.
Addicts can’t “just stop”. 
They let the drug-of-choice rule their life
They don’t care about the strife
There are triggers you know
That make the addict so
Stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness and boredom 
They all push the addict towards the ledge
And their low self-esteem is the finale step
  Over
       The
             Edge.
She is in recovery now…
She is doing well
She will always be
An addict you see
We love her the best we can
We will stick to the plan
And take each day
As it comes in to play.

My granddaughter is great!
She’s not yet two
She is nuts too.
She knows nothing of how 
She came to my house.
  (refer to the stanza on “My Daughter”)
She loves unconditionally
She loves Grandpa you see.
She doesn’t yet speak
So she cries her fears
And I dry her tears
And just like with her grandma and her mother
I try to read her mind
To see if I can tell
What it is that makes her yell
But she is sweet and kind and beautiful
And grandpa spoils her so…
Bet he can’t help it, you know.


It may be politically incorrect
But I don’t care;
Sometimes there is too much estrogen in the air
So grandpa gets out of the house
And meets his buds
And drinks some suds
And tells dirty jokes
About the kind of women
My mother and wife never were,
  and I hope my daughter and granddaughter never will be.
So point your finger at me
And yell Hypocrisy!
I don’t care
Because you wouldn’t dare
Live my life for me.
But I would not trade all of this
To be rid of the drama (and the bliss)
It’s four against one
   the ladies and me
Walk a mile in my shoes
And you will see
It takes great strength to do what I do
Four-to-One, and two dogs too.

Parkies

Why do you stare .....
Stare at me?
Step a little closer
then you might just see.
Was it my shuffling?
That made you look fast
or was it my stumbling
when I walked past?
Whichever it was,
I truly don't care.
Walk a mile in my shoes,
I beg you, I dare.
I shake and stumble
with every move I make.
Hard to swallow ....
these pills I take.
For I have Parkinsons,
yes, it's true
but, as rude as you are,
I wouldn't wish it on you!

Ignorances Is Taken

Ignorance is taken and ignorance is given  
Progression on the mind while oppression stay hidden 
Please don’t judge me because I say the word nigga 
To me it’s just a word that really means ignorant 
But ignorance’s is taken so ignorance’s given
Try to stay calm and forget past feelings 
I’m no longer living where I need my pistol 
Keep it locked up until I get an uneasy feeling 
Everything’s legit check my papers you don’t believe me
I want more money but I’m to humble to turn greedy 
I’d rather struggle day to day then sellout to something I don’t believe in
Living check to check and I still feel blessed because I have a roof over my head
I’ve been homeless and I won’t go back again 
I’m done selling drugs I’m an honest working man 
Working on getting my  medicinal  so I can medicate 
I’m not making new problems just correcting old mistakes 
walk a mile in my shoes bet you’ll quit after a quick pace 
Ignorance’s is taken so we give ignorance’s away
