A Major Cry For Help

The tears are too heavy to wipe away, she doesnt bother getting rid of them 
because she feels they are meant to stay

with fiery red eyes and a face with the look of exaust, she feels she has no control 
over the feeling she has come across

she disconnected her phone, black lights and curtins covered her room, she even 
broke her t.v. she had no interest in being outside to enjoy the excitement she 
could see

self medicating, due to a headache every day was the reason everybody believed 
she never stayed awake and barely touched a plate

at such a young age she couldnt even look in the mirrior for a few minutes without 
turning away, and still not knowing what she feels, shes allowing herself to fade 
away

                                               DID ANYBODY GET TO HER BEFORE IT WAS TOO LATE??

Think Before You Speak

Watch what you say rather it be out of anger, stress or plan cruelty

a persons feelings can be hurt just by saying the least little thing

yes its true we all get mad, up set, angry or what ever we feel

but have you ever wondered how we make other people feel

when we know we hurt other peoples feelings we always say

well i shouldn't have said that or shouldn't have said this

but its not what you say its how you say it

jail cells would be over crowded if we got locked up for things we say

because our words out of anger,stress, and plain cruelty kill people every day

so when you feel you want to tear some body into pieces

well you read the poem think about it

Too Many People

Every hour there is a new person

the first person is happy

the second person is sad

the third person is extreamly joyful

the fourth person is depressed

Some mornings there comes a fifth person who feels like all hope is gone

but then the sixth person comes and shows the fifth person that life is beautiful

but why must all these people show up in such a timely manner?

could it be that they all want something different?

could they all be visiting the same person?

or do they all have something in common?

if you chose all of the above your right

all of them know the same person and they are taking over her life

that life is mine and i am all six people.

tormented everyday with different voices and different personalities only shown by me

nobody understands me but who would ever believe that all the extra six people is really me?

Dear Nana

What is a grandmother? The definition of a grandmother is, the mother of one's 
mother or father

But you are my grandmother and alot more then that. You have been there for me 
from the time i was born to the time that i am writting this poem for you and will be 
my grandmother for ever

Without you there would be no me you have always had my back and have always 
been there for me

when i think of the words such as beautiful, wonderful, protective, amazing, kind 
and sweet hearted all i can picture is your face

your soul, your ambition and your heart, that you have put into my life, and for that i 
am and will always be forever thankful

you have taught me the meaning of being caring, giving and loving to not only 
myself but as well as to others

you helped me grow, you helped me understand the meanin of being a woman and 
looking inside of myself to bring out the woman that i am

without you i would not know the true abilities that i posses inside because i am a 
part of you

I thank you for being patient with me and i really thank you for my mother because 
if God had not blessed you with her, she would not have had me

I will never forget the love and laughs we now are able to have between us, you 
bring the smile to my face that automatically shines when i think of the love, joy and 
laughter you possess inside

And for all that and much much more i whitney andrea lacey thank you for being my 
grandmother

The Happy Field of Memories

THE JOYFUL CROWD COMES TOGETHER TO ENJOY THE PRESENT DAY

EMBRACING THE PRICELESS FEELING THEY BRING CALLED LOVE THAT'S THERE TO STAY

SMILES AND LAUGHS HUGS AND KISSES START OFF THE PLANS TO BE MADE THINGS THAT WE DO TOGETHER AS WE COME TOGETHER TO MAKE HAPPY MEMORIES ALONG THE WAY

THE JOYFUL CROWD THAT'S CALLED FAMILY IS ALSO VERY UNIQUE EACH INDIVIDUAL HAS A DIFFERENT LOOK AND PERSONALITY

THE RESIMBLANCE BETWEEN ONE ANOTHER WILL NEVER FADE AWAY NO ONE IS THE ODD ONE OUT WE RELATE IN SOME SORT OF WAY

RATHER IT BE THE SAME EYES, SAME HAIR OR HOW OR HIPS HAVE THE SAME SWAY

WE TALK ABOUT THE OLD TIMES AND HOW WE HAVE CHANGED TODAY AND HOW EVERY MOMENT WE SPEND TOGETHER IS DIFFERENT IN EACH WAY

BUT ONE THING THAT NEVER CHANGES RATHER CLOSE OR FAR AWAY IS THE FIELD OF LOVE WE HOLD TOGETHER AND EVENLY EXCHANGE

THE THINGS WE DO N THE PAST GIVES US HAPPY THOUGHTS IN THE PRESENT AND GIVES US MORE IDEAS TO PLAN WHAT COMES IN THE FUTURE

THE TIME SPENT THE CHIT CHATS AND LAUGHS AND THE LOVE EACH OF US BRINGS

DEFINES THE JOYFUL FAMILY THAT HOLDS THE FIELD OF LOVING MEMORIES

Thank You

Thank you for the agony you put on my heart it feels so much better since you 
ripped it out

i never thought that pain would be the pleasure but the way you deliver the pain is 
like you giving me treasure


when i tried to hurt myself for some reason i never get a kick out of it but the way 
you give it i could never get enough of it

pain is only the minor thing you give me but you give me moderate things that 
even more pleasing

like the way you said you loved me then walked away like you never even laid an 
eye on me

or how you spent up all my money but yet you never gave me anything

and wait lets not for get the time you hung up with me to call another girl now that 
was lovely because you told me you where calling her

and last but not least we have the most excellent far out blow my mind away thing

you made promises and made me think you loved me. yes you said i love you

took what you wanted then you where never to be heard from again

wow you are one of a kind

The Feeling I Have Inside

I feel rage pain concern hurt agony oh how bad the world has turned

it spun around and forgot about me i was left feeling lost and lonely

i try to cope and pray and understand that obsticals will come my way

but WATS thrown at me never dodges me but sticks by me tortures me

i try to release by talking to people but the ears that i feel are open never listen

my smile my laugh me energy my happiness my entellegence is all for show

because how i feel deep down inside nobody will ever know will i ever grow

no because i have no place to go no place to show a face that will glow

un loved un wanted un appreciated those are the feelings that i deal with from day to night

from hour to hour

How Will This Work Out

I found another man who said he wants to be with me

but so many men have broken my heart

im not the one to give up on love, and i think i should make a fresh start

will i be able to deal with having another man in my world?

how do i handle having somebody else call me there girl?

is this going to be another relationship where i just get hurt in the end?

am i ready to take another up on there offer and be more then just friends?

will he love me for who i am? 

or should ijust not have a man?

I Allow It

I allow you to neglect me so i can better show that ill always be there for you

I allow you to be selfish towards me to show you ill die trying to give my all to you

When you dont tell me you love me, you make it easier for me to express my love 
for you

When you cheat its easy access for me to become stronger to your needs

I allow all the things you do because instead of letting it make me unhappy it helps 
me show you how shamful you will be when one day theres no more whitney..

Why Cant I Get Away

The hurt and heart ache and pain i just want somebody to take me away

i'm tired of being lonely its been going on for too long so heres my song

life has taken its toll on me used me and abused me never made me but did 
break me

all i ever wanted was a hand to hold a friend to have and somebody to keep me 
warm when i'm cold

the more i try to give myself to somebody the more they all move further away

some people might say you have your family but my own siblings wont even 
accept me

if i have something to give i get greetings and smiles but when i'm empty handed 
i cant even give myself a smile

GOD is enough for me i'm sure of that but while i'm on earth who really has my 
back

i came in this world alone and i will die alone but never did i imagine i would live 
my life so alone, so cold , so hurt and so empty
