Premium MemberChains On The Gate




Each day is the same; we all sit here and wait,
listening for the sound of the chains on the gate.
You see, that’s our signal; that’s our cue;
that’s how we know what we're to do.
We all soon learn what each sound is for,
even before someone's open the door.
We get excited when the laundry is clean,

You make me happy/
You make me sad.
You treat me like a queen/
You hurt me bad.
You want me to stay/
You tell me to leave.
You say you trust me/
You don't believe me.
You're caring and sweet/
You're cruel and degrading.
See,I'm on my feet/
Now feel my love fading.

Rowing Through The Pain

Rowing Through The Pain

Row, Row, Row your boat gently down the stream
Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily life is but a dream

Row, Row, Row your boat why can’t I scream
Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily perfections not how it seems

Row, Row, Row your boat forever never ends
Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily my pain never mends

Over, Over, Over again until I

Beneath the Iron Veil

Echoes of the holy grace, for this place,
Endless woe of devolution,
Forever entice, your grace,
The moon is your solution. 

Confined in this space, of endless grace,
Under the moonlight, it is illusion,
Illusion of woe, forever retrace,
It is all persuasion, or is it union?

Shadows creep, where darkness breeds,
A symphony of sorrows, never-ending,
Lost souls wander, planting crushed seeds,
A tale,

Repetition

Once is never quite enough,  
Once again feels more like trust.  
Once more, close to sure—  
Eat, has eaten, ate, will eat—  
Breath itself repeats,  
A ritual done compulsively,  
Yet never fully satisfied.  

Like tasting twice, the second time charms,  
Knowledge grows through shifting views,  
Education’s

Premium MemberWho is right and who is wrong

Somewhere, a poem exists in our minds about love, life, politics, natural disasters, religion, and contentious issues.  

Suddenly, political uprisings and wars emerge, with ISIS and figures like Donald Trump acting as modern crusaders.  

Here we are, as citizens, once more feeling disheartened, striving to discover beauty in life amidst chaos, seeking a

AN UNMOCKED ALLEGORICAL FLASHBACK


When we were young and growing up,
Granny said that all things have a seed,
And that every seed produces its own
Things to be reaped: good or bad:-


At the time, it was hers and the bible study
Lesson to be taught and remembered; however,
At that time, I didn’t get the full allegorical meaning
Of what she

Our roots

It can be coily it can be straight 
It can be parted many ways
It can be texturized or revitalized 
Our hair is reversible 

Cultural, unique, a symbol of power
You can braid it up, twist it up, loc it up 
But you cant mess it up!

Cycles and routines

Cycles and routines
create a loop
it can be positive or negative 
the loop that is never ending 

You can be stuck in a cycle of
progression or degression
seasons they never end
thats just how the loop
Begins.

The Quiet Things That Saved Me

I was saved by quiet things—
The rustle of the morning breeze,
The way the robin spreads its wings,
The golden drift of autumn leaves.

I was saved by threads of light
That touched my skin through broken blinds,
By distant stars that pierced the night,
By echoes I had left behind.

I was saved by falling rain—
The softest tears the sky could
