Lost Without You

When I heard your name on news,
I was lost looking for a clue,
Pain in my heart,
Never thought we'd be torn apart,
At least not so soon,
You was the moon in my night,
and in battles you was the fight
in me,
Tears filled my eyes
Anger tightened my fist,
The lingering blur felt like mist,
mad I was?
No I was pist! 
You could have been anything you
Wanted to be
God needed you more than me
God brought you up a level to heaven
and brought hell up a level to me
I just never wanted to see 
The day you would have to leave.

My Hurt

My hurt is like no other
It's realer than any smile
It's realer than any laugh
blinded to the public 
so only I can see its path
everyone thinks "I'm Okay"
people ask
but never stay
people believe 
but never say 
"You're lying"
is it because
they really don't know?
or
is it because 
they really don't care?
I'm covering my hurt 
with temporary happiness 
as if it was a band-aid 
but when that happiness wares off 
like every other drug does
I feel lower 
than where I started off at 
I'm drowning 
in a 3ft pool
of my own thoughts 
but I'm 5ft
I just need to stand up 
easy advice to give 
right? 
but so much harder 
to follow
my eyes are open 
I can see the problem 
but I can't see 
the problem disappearing 
atleast
not anytime soon..

What's Enough

“I think your beautiful”
am I thirsty 
for telling her what I see?
“I have feelings for you”
am I wrong
for telling her the truth?
“I can’t stop thinking about you”
am I obsessed 
because i miss you more than you miss me?
“when can I see you?”
am I asking you for too much?
because i enjoy seeing you smile
“I wanna give you the world”
so I'm lying?
because the last guy failed to give it to you,
“Want to watch Netflix and chill?”
oh I’m nasty now? 
because I actually want
to show you my favorite movie 
and 
bond with you 
without any boys or girls trying 
to ruin our day…
forget the poem
Not every guy wants the same 
things
you know when you can tell 
you feeling someone?
and want something serious with them?
when sex isn’t the thing drawing your attention
when you say 
“Can i come over” 
and they reply
“yeah but my parents are home..”
and you say 
“perfect, even better”
anyone can come over and do things 
to please themselves
but with you 
its nots not about pleasing me
maybe you want a player
maybe a lovable person
is not your type
but anyone who wants to see
you happy and succeed
seems like 
the right type.

My Issue

As I’m sitting here writing
I’m wondering
Where did I go wrong?
As you sit there reading
Your wondering
What is going on? 
I searched through many songs 
Looking for that one
That relates to how I feel
A little dead inside
I can’t lie
Some of y’all are wondering 
Why? 
Hell you don’t know
And neither do I
Constantly trying to find
Happiness within myself 
Like a kid looking for cookies 
That are hidden on the top shelf
I know what I want 
And thats good
Cause thats usually 
The hardest part 
But getting to that step 
Of readiness 
Is my true dilemma  
How do I accept 
What I’m not truly use too
How do I move on
From everything that I’m use too 
Its causes not just physical 
But mental abuse too
Am I trapped
By my own mind forever
Is it cause I got issues?
Am I crying for help 
Praying someone brings a tissue?
Or is this all just a breeze
That will blow by with time
Can someone tell me,
Better yet
Can someone help me?
and by someone 
I mean you..

Absence

ever felt so alone
like you were in a crowd of people
yelling at the top of your lungs
and no one can hear
see 
or 
acknowledge you
how you cry
and every tear
holds a memory 
that cant be expressed
explained, or even
understood
absent from the world 
but your absences isn't noticed
love of one person
can change your life
appearance
your out look on life 
your self confidence 
can raise or fall
but its up to you
to hold it to your own
extent 
love with your heart and mind
and express yourself 
find someone you can be yourself with
hold her hand
her heart 
her word 
let your soul express itself
