Kayla Bateaste Poem
The smell of a delicate rose
That scrapes a nose
Flowers in Spring
With a smell so obscene
A taste of chocolate cake
Causing a face to break
It's like a walk on a cool beach
That scorches the feet
It can be just a step in warm water
That freezes to ice
Or a deserted Island
That's no longer paradise
Deception in love and life
Is like getting married, to find no husband or wife
It's a heart that loves unconditionally
But is smashed so brutally
A trusting heart, that's a beast in size
Only 2 be beaten down, by tiny lies
It's a deceptive shower in the month of May
When all hoped for, was a brighter day
Like freezing snow on a night of June
When summer ended so very soon
Swimming with dolphins, with no care
Then spotting a shark there
Like waiting Winter, each December
And find out it's not coming, or didn't remember
Deception has no regard for anyone or any things
It destroys like a hurricane, then sings

Kayla Bateaste Poem
Losing someone is like losing the very breath u take to survive
Like holding in air, taking the deadliest,deepest dive
Like someone knocked all the air,better yet, the life out of ur life
Like they jabbed u in ur heart with the sharpest knife
The emptiness inside ur soul,makes ur blood run cold
Like red roses that stood high, that turn black, then fold
Lost without ur eyes, in a dark empty wood.
Grasping to reach anything u could.
Nothing in reach for u to hold close
No one around, when u need them the most
Nothing to warm ur heart & keep it beating steady
U didn't ask for this,unexpected, u weren't ready
It's like a stiffness in ur body,like ur growing old anew
No one around to console u
Ur at a loss for words
No chirping for black birds
Ur missing apart of u & inside's a hole
They used to stick with u,like a mole
Losing love is like losing ur mind
Every thought,but the reason, u still can't find
Enough memory to last ur lifetime,but they're still not there.
Ur mind is gone,but u can't think as to where.
A part of ur heart & mind have vanished with the lost of someone so dear
& u love them & miss them more with every tear
Thinking bout them, only makes it worse
It happened so quickly, u'd think it was a curse
Loving & losing a lover or a friend
Family, or next to kin
It's a universal emotion, which we all can relate
They accepted their fate
& we must face
We'll get through it at our own pace
Because we know , they're in a better place

Kayla Bateaste Poem
We were like the sun in the month of May
Now we're like June, with the sun gone astray
Like Ice on a July mornin
Now, we don't belong
We were like sand on the beach; so cleansing & smoothe
But now we're like the shore, that's washed away
We used to be sunshine on a cloudy day
Now we're like the clouds,
Gloomy & gray
We used to connect on so many different levels
But now, we're so far apart, there's no reception
Now we can't talk
We have no connection
Our bond was so strong it could not be broken
Now it's broken down with words unspoken
We used to finish eachother's sentences, but
Now we speak a different language
We used to care about eachother,but
Now we care about ourselves
We used to get eachother,but
Now we get tired
We used to work things out,but
Now we're both fired
Used to be in our own world,but
Now we're on different planets
Used to share a mind,but
Now,our thoughts are hard to find
We used to know eachother so very well,but
Now we're strangers
We used to be joined at the hip,but
Now we're a thousand feet away
No force could pull us apart
Now a driving force has separated our conjoined heart.

Kayla Bateaste Poem
They say Beauty is in the eye of the Beholder. ur beauty is a magnificent bright.A strong sight. & yet it gets bolder. Each glance of ur extravagant beauty. I shudder wit an uncalled duty. An uncontrollable effect of prescence & assets,I squirm into the pits,into the depts. I appreciate a beauty as fine as urs,its above the rest,its of an Eagle,it soars. I can't compare thou beauty,with anything less great, a lesser beauty shall not participate. Its damn near unapproachable,but extremely noticeable. A blind woman can see ur beauty.Without eyes,u can't mistake the beauty of the Earth's sunrise. Oh its no surprise,wats in thy eyes,a one of a kind beauty,that never dries. Ur beauty is pure,wit no additives. Rare is ur beauty, its hard 2 find. Its way beyond the surface,its ur heart,its ur mind.

Kayla Bateaste Poem
Have u ever felt so alone?
I mean,ur surrounded by others,but they don't hear u.
They don't feel ur pain.
They don't take ur hand, when u reach out to them.
They don't want to.
They are selfish.
Have u ever felt like u were in another world?
Like u were being ignored?
Like u were invisible?
Like the pain & hurt inside of u is a punishment for what u have done?
But what u've done, u don't know.
Have u ever wondered, what did I do to deserve this?
Ur heart is beating so rapidly.
Ur heart is crying so loudly;but still, no one can hear it.
The people in ur world just seem like the walking dead,
They are there,but it's no interaction.
Or could u be the dead one?
& could it be that u need someone to touch u to make u feel alive again.
Has ur body ever screamed out "Touch Me! Touch Me!" ?
Has ur heart ever cried out "Love Me! Love Me!" ?
Has ur soul ever hummed "Take Me! Take!" ?
Loneliness is an illness.
We die of a lack of companionship & longing for another's touch.
One can not live in a world of one.
One will go insane.
& If u shall feel this way, should u be near the point of insanity?
One will go crazy or die if one holds in waste,that shall be released.
It's more healthy to let out, rather than keep in.
But if u can not find a reliable object to direct, it does ur mind,body,& soul no good.
There's only so many days that go by that u can be content with urself,b4 u erupt.
A healthy mind, needs converstation. Talking to urslelf is pure insanity.
A healthy body needs to be consoled,nurtured,held. There's only so long,u can touch urself,without coming to realization that it's u.
A healthy soul needs to be calmed & at ease.
A healthy mind needs to be stimulated,with thoughts of peacefulness. When alone for so long, ur mind has negative thoughts & feelings.
Everyone seeks companionship,friendship,& a just a shoulder to cry on.
Most ppl have a cold shoulder or turn their back on a friend in need.
I just wanna know,is there anybody lonely out there?
Longing for someone to hold.
Growing out of patience, with no one to reach out to?
A room full of ppl,& u still feel alone?
Everybody needs somebody.
It really does take two.
Out of these many people in this whole wide world,Y do I feel so alone at times?
How can someone feel so alone in this world of infinite beings?
Its a question u've become all too familiar with.
& the answer is. .

Kayla Bateaste Poem
It hurts, it hurts like hell
For someone to hurt u,
That u thought, u knew so well
I can't explain the pain
It hurts in every vein
Everything's a lie
All u can do is cry
Cry so hard, ur eyes & head hurt
Tears all on ur face & shirt
Could it get any worse?
It's just a curse
Hurt seems to be a disease
That grows on u with ease
Inside, slowly dyin
Symptoms are a broken heart & excessive cryin
Like ur eyes are bleedin non stop
& ur knees weak, u just drop
U just wana be cured, it seems to never heal
U wana be assured, that love is real
U wonder, how does love feel
U've forgotten the feeling of the real deal
Ur so hurt, that ur heart goes numb
But u still feel that hurt,sting, like a prick of a thumb
Gosh, it's an unbearable feeling
& everyday, u hurt more, instead of healing
As soon as u get the least bit of relief
Another bomb is dropped on ur heart & it's back to grief
U wonder when will it stop, when will the pain go away?
It's no medicine for it, so all u do is pray...

Kayla Bateaste Poem
I'm dying inside.
Shredding to pieces.
Open me up.
There's a dark empty hole.
Deep enough to bury a thousand souls.
The remains of a thousand lifetimes,lay bare,unyeilding.
Fatally murdered by love.
Love lost and not returned to sender.
Painfull enough,one by one, surrender.
I'm crying as I cringe in fear or getting deeper.
I pay no soul.
The cost of life; much cheaper.
Cold and empty; with days
Gets much colder.
If my head had a heart,I'd lay it on my shoulder.
Once unbareable,but it hurts no more.
Just to remember love,
I'd patch my heart and leave a sore.
Numbness hurts even more.
No feeling to explore.
Just a memory of what was in your chest,
Now in your head.
I'd rather hurt,
Than be dead.
It's painful memories,
But only in ur brain,
If ur heart had sensation,
U'd feel the pain.
Ur paralyzed in a sense,
Yet there's no sense of feeling there.
Ur brain appears disconnected from ur heart and body
So there's no feeling anywhere but up there.
Dying of love,with no possible cure.
And ur so deep,
U can no longer endure.
So u've lost.
And only can remember what was
As if love were a crime,
And now u have to pay the cost.
An endless rope can't pull u free
Ur in love deep & dangerously.
Painful memories.
An indication of a hole so deep, a thousand lovers can't fill

Kayla Bateaste Poem
I used 2 be so in touch with my feelings, but now I can't touch my feelings.
I can't feel my feelings, if that makes sense.
It's hard 2 put a finger on how I feel
I'm just goin through the motions, with no emotions
Is this real?
Is it a dream, cuz I can't feel anything
I'm blank inside, if u know what I mean
Could I be sad?
I don't know, cuz I feel no tears down my cheek
Am I mad?
My feelings are playing hide & seek
Could I be hurt deep inside, sittin here while my soul cries
I could be heartbroken, waiting til each feeling dies
I really don't know how I feel
My soul's confused & doesn't know which feeling 2 choose

Kayla Bateaste Poem
There was an instant connection,
Thru the first bars & lines, as I gained mobile reception,
Eyes glowin in excitement,
Body growin from enticement,
As my fingers moved swiftly thru the keys,
My fingertips tingled,
My soul at ease,
U were a breath of fresh air,
It was like we'd met before,
I swear,
It felt like deja vu,
Everything u'd say, It felt like a reminder of what I'd been thru,
The feeling I felt, it's like nothing I can describe,
The amount we had in common was uncanny,
From our beliefs,
Down to our relationships with our family,
I was amazed how words could have such an effect through a screen,
But I was touched in every way from my head to my spleen,
I'd imagine u whispering those words softly in my ear,
& with every message u sent, thru my heart,
It was clear,
Falling for u had I not seen u in front of me,
I'd ask myself,
Was it crazy,
Then u'd convince me not, that it was just the divine connection we shared,
& Question God, I had not dared,
I knew it was a reason for ur placement in my life,
I'd not encountered u, without some sacrifice,
God taketh away, & he'd given me, u
The reason ur here, we shall see in a few,
A great friend u'll always stay,
& I'll still think of u,everyday,
Though, our plan is to meet sooner or later,
But each day, my anticipation grows greater,
My mind wonders what will come of this,
Will we get one another?
Will God transform u, from my friend, to my lover?

Kayla Bateaste Poem
I'm living in the past.
I'm goin nowhere fast.
This concept of life, I can't seem 2 grasp.
I'm reaching, I'm reaching, I can't catch a break
It's like im sleeping, & can't seem 2 wake.
I call & call on God, but no answer
How much does it take?
I pray, day 2 day for heaven's sake
Painful memories of the past,
I can't seem to shake
It's like im walking, running, in place.
Regret haunts me
He stares me in the face.
I can't fight him off,
I have no mase.
I'm standing still in a memory pit
I'm daydreaming,
Reality hasn't hit.
I wonder what if
What coulve been
I need to smell the coffee, just a wiff
I swear, I can't win.
Save me from the postion im in
At a standstill,
Yet my mind is moving
I just need the courage, the will
I need 2 move forward, but I fear losing
