A Decade of Depression

heard the sound!!! She is Gone!!! Gone 
Forever!!! 
2001...who would have thought that...that 
would be the last time i would ever see 
you!!! 
History Repeating Itself... 7 yrs later...I 
heard the sound!!! She's Gone Max!!! Gone 
Forever!!! 
Two Mothers...One Soul...Entering 
Heaven...Thats the Goal!!! Mission 
Accomplished!!! I Know!!! 
NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO SAY I LOVE 
YOU 
NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO HUG YOU 
NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO SAY THANK 
YOU 
NEVER GOT THE LAST CHANCE TO SEE 
YOU 
SELFISH I KNOW!!! BUT WHO WOULD 
BELIEVE YOU WOULD LEAVE SO QUICKLY 
Treated life for granted so now im taking 
the punishment!!! 
Never ? God so why yall left me!!! too 
much pain and suffering i understand 
completely... 
From Diabetes to low breathing...and 
stressful dayz to emotional 
rollercoasting!!! 
Sibilings Fighting...drama uplifting...but 
when yall passed away...there was a 
resolution!!! 
For some strange reason I keep on 
smiling at the sun even though there are 
clouds 
feeling the warmth of the love from yall 
but there is a blizzard inside!!! 
Inside my BODY!!! SOUL IS COLD...I WAS 
A BAD SON 
CURSING...STEALING...GANGBANGING!!!D
ISREPESCTUL...
YET YALL STILL ADOPTED ME...WHEN I 
DIDNT HAVE A FAMILY!!! DIDNT DESERVE 
IT BUT I CHERISH IT 
SO WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT I HAD A 
DECADE OF DEPRESSION 
I used to run from my mistakes.... Tried to 
hide my short-comings. 
But it's hard to pull the puppet strings 
when you're the wooden dummy...Well... 
let me tell you what I am today!!! 
See Im a confused delirious man who 
thinks of 2nd opinions: 
doctors who doesn’t give a damn about 
me 
Father who left me and ran away 
No Brothers but 1 sister who said who 
cares!!! 
Lost 2 Mothers!!! 
Never Had a Legit Family!!! 
Turned my heart to stone. Petrified Pretty 
Much... Til this day Im Still Running 
Waiting for the person who can TAKE 
THEIR PLACE...HELP ME PLEASE!!! 
Give me A purpose. Give me A meaning. 
Help me speak without A stutter... 
Help me learn the lesson so im never left 
with... WHY I TOOK ADVANTAGE OF MY 
MOTHERS... 
Out of Sight...Out of Mine... 2010 begins a 
whole new decade!!! No More Depression 
If times get hard and I dont know who to 
call on or talk to... 
I can always reach my mothers in heaven 
and talk to My Father(God) through my 
heart

Unconditional

Unconditional….As you can see… My 
infatuation for her is undeniable… So the 
best way to describe her… is simply 
undescribable… So in order for me myself 
and I to rest peacefully… I have to have 
love Unconditionally… Meaning I want to 
give her every piece of me and ummmm 
excuse me if I don’t have the decency  
BUT She is all I can think of as of recently 
oh by the way excuse my language but my 
tongue is the only way I can taste her 
ecstasy…  Breathless… her lungs 
punctuating into mine… its not like she is 
killing me… I have more to live for…A True 
Angel So I’m creating a Heaven For Her… 
Lets Rewind to how it all begin… like a 
Oasis to my desert…she was hard to find…
once I did…it had me wondering if she was 
real..probably an allusion BUT… STIll!!! I 
stayed in that desert…Lived in that desert…
dreamed in that desert… only to spend 
more time with that mirage of her… that’s 
how friendship became a bond…buts 
that’s equivalent of how thirsty I was…  
But for some reason I was still holding my 
breath… WHY??? There were too many 
“Suns” looking to explore the “Center of 
that Universe”… And now I’m spiraling out 
of control…like Kanye west accident… 
COMA!!! But she kept pulling me in like I 
was a dimed light and she was the black 
hole… Momma told me about 
Unconditional Love…I didn’t listen…No true 
definition…but more of God’s Script to 
have half of the heart become whole… It’s 
just so damn hard to conceive it… But 
honestly I needed her like the air that I 
breathe… Live for today and not for 
Tomorrow… She is my Today Tomorrow 
and Forever… The serenity of 
understanding and the absence of fear 
made my move close to her and closer to 
the master… Master put us together… my 
last chance was my first choice… God put 
us together like the pieces to the puzzle… I 
am fortunate… To have you Girl is the 
words I sing to her like I was Usher and 
she was Chilli… Staring at her love like it 
was a picture and I see all of the 
realization of my dreams coming true…
Unconditional Love Is Here… Being in that 
desert made everything perfectly clear… 
That looking into your eyes was actually 
me looking into my soul… tracing your 
silhouette body… to grasping onto your 
lips…Unconditional Love… There is no 
magic potion…no hex or spell required…No 
Degree…No Doctrine acquired…no 
formula…no recipe to make…no code 
words to recite or codes to be retrieved…
this is love I convey to you…I convey to 
you… like personalized concrete made 
from me for you to walk on… or a second 
heart placed on the right side of the chest 
made from me for you because I knew you 
were right for me…Its just Unconditional 
love baby… For Love it’s never a question 
within my mind… You Are My Lady, My 
Queen, FOR ALL TIMES!!!

Poem Cry

cant see it coming down my eyez so I 
have to let this Poem Cry 
I cant see it coming down my eyez so I 
have to let this Poem Cry 
See Im not on this Jay-Z shhhh... 
Im on this Real Love Shhh...the type of 
love thats makes Mary J Blige dig deep to 
find her soul shhhh
A poem that lets it out... 
see i had love but never cherished it...felt 
it but never kept it...used it but as a 
crackhead well I had to abuse it... 
funny its really irrelevent...love had 
passed me so fast like usain bolt there 
wasnt a reason for me to catch 
it...TREATED IT LIKE SUICIDE SO I HAD 
NO CHOICE BUT TO KILL IT FOR MYSELF 
A poem that makes me mad...A poem that 
keeps me Sad...A POEM THAT MAKES 
YOU MAD!!! 
R.I.P LOVE!!! YEA I SAID IT...HOW CAN I 
DENY IT!!! My broken soul 
Past pains hidden deep...My heart has a 
hole...Love wasn’t in my book... 
Wasn’t something I could see...damn sure 
wasnt something i wanted to read 
Pain was bound in my world...SO MAYBE 
JUST MAYBE I NEED TO BE DEAD... 
LOAD UP THE GUN AND PUT IT TO MY 
HEAD 
CLIMB UP ON TOP OF THE 
BUILDING...STAND CLOSE TO THE 
EDGE...READY TO FALL...BUT!!! 
FELT SO SCARE SO I BEGAN TO STALL!!! 
KNOWING NOBODY WAS THERE TO 
CATCH MY TEARS 
SO I LET THIS POEM CRY INSTEAD!!! 
Every time I think the feeling of love has 
called it quits 
the tortuous memories and hopes that 
may never be... prove to still exist 
and so I walk the land of love and pain 
the man with a plan but no plan to make it 
happen 
It's not that I'm sleeping or slacking on it 
...basically just napping 
procrastinating keeps me from snapping 
out of insanity 
watching other lovers pointing the finger 
at my single life 
should I be pleased!!! not really!!! because 
honestly!!! this is the reality!!! 
IT ALL STARTS WITH ME!!! TAKE ME 
AWAY!!! LORD TAKE ME AWAY!!! 
Day in...Day Out...trying to make 
it...continuing to fight love but now i need 
to escape it 
instead of looking up to the skies and 
begin to cry 
I couldnt see it coming down my eyez...SO 
I LET THE POEM CRY!!!

State of the Union

Suicide: I laughed at it like a clown then a clown turned around and laughed at my life; disgusted, so i decided to grab the gun and cocked it... bullets penetrated like dribbling to the hole... Shot!!! Flashed!!! My eyez rolling back in my empty head... no bullets in the gun, hard headed!!! Depression: depressed to the point i couldnt buy the bullets to at least put inside the gun to at least have the bullets come out to at least put one to my head the point i was ready to die... Death: where to begin... i actually died before complicated as it sounds... 3 times like the son of God... knowing im not the son of God but i am the son of a mother and a father who names is unknown to me... Born Jan 18, 1986 Died June 5, 2001 When I came home from school and no one was there to give me a hug but had the nerves to express to me that my mom passed away thats when i died on the living room floor Born Jan 18, 1986 Died Sept 15, 2007 the day i was on a yr gap not talking to God being a pimp and reality kicked in when three guys put guns to my head taking everything and i died on Nicholson St Born Jan 18, 1986 Died Nov 1, 2009 the day the clock landing on my favorite number but waking up to uncontrollable phone calls and your roommate tells you that your 2nd Mom has gone to Heaven...Comes in 3's but how did i come in between... Turning Negativity into A Positive Situation is like Turning a Tornado into sunny skies... do you know the damage is already done... SILLY ASS POET: WORDS ARE FOR REAL PEOPLE!!! Like JShade Brings His Words To The World And Give It Life... When Chelsea Hit You With Similes And Metaphors that will make your soul shiver... as for myself I am beaten down with nothing to say... so people staring into my eyes proclaiming this state of the union address is a waste of time!!!

Poetic Sex

( In The Thunder & Rain ) 
   
   The Thunder Is Your Moans The Rain Is 
Your Wetness... 
      I Place my Tongue under each drip 
and each drop... like my Tongue was a 
whirlwind twista that made your pink 
flood!!! 
              This Sounds Like Poetic Sex!!! 
Poetic Sex!!!
If I Told You I Was A Freak You Say No 
Because I'm Max!!!          Respectful Kind 
Gental And Sweet
But I am... Plus More.. Between The 
Sheets!!!
                                       WATCH!!!
   As my Tongue Xplores The Riveting 
Hole 
Sending Chills through out your Body like 
your Cold 
You release a load of Sweet and Sour 
I got your Legs in the Air like the EIFFEL 
TOWER!!!
Painting A Portrait With My Tongue On 
Your Lips Making The Mona Lisa 
Jealous!!!
You Drown my Thoughts with all sorts Of 
High Pitched Moans with Deep Bass 
Groans As a Symphony of Satisfaction 
caused by a Chain Reaction Like:
                                  ( Anytime... Anyplace )
            Janet Jackson In The Background 
As I Take Notes
                                   ( Anytime... Anyplace )
             Janet Jackson In The Background 
As I Take Notes
Temptation is leading to Aggravation
Because Your Inner Chamber is suffering 
from Starvation 
Brushed against the silkiness of your 
delicate walls...         
Moist anticipation takes shelter between 
her thighs...
 AND--- like a starving artist I Am...
You sacrifice freely... Brushing away your 
warm honey... and licking away her oils of 
pleasure. With a feverish tongue that 
hunts for that pearl... 
                 This Sounds Like Poetic Sex!!! 
Poetic Sex!!!
If You Asked Me If The Sex Was Over I Say 
This Is Just THE CLIMAX!!!
She Said Stop!!! Let me Take Over!!! I got 
something for you!!! I said Word!!! True?!?! 
Well by all means Do What You Do.          
She Says: 
I’m in need to suck slowly on your glass 
pipe... 
        Allowing it to heat with excitement 
and swell... 
While throbbing against my fragile lips...
        Pulsating against my hungry 
tongue... 
While exploring my mouth like a Pioneer 
       Making me mentally high from 
desires’ scent
I Release smoky moans into the 
hemisphere...
       Fading into my canvas of euphoria... 
Tattoo your mark within my inferno.. And 
paint your poetic pieces all over my body..
 You poetic sex was beautiful!!!
                   Poetic Sex!!! Poetic Sex!!!

Poem Cry Ii: Exhausted

Can't see her coming down my eyes...So 
Can I Let This Poem Cry
I can't see her coming down my eyes...So 
Can I Let This Poem Cry
ONCE AGAIN ITS ON!!! 
Flying into a dream...looking through the 
unseen
wondering what i'll do...believing it isn't 
you
more of believing...feeling it isn't me... The 
one your after
Could it Be...Reality is kicking me in the 
rear end
MC...Think Clearly...take a moment and 
breathe
there's nothing but wondering...a lot of 
speculation... nothing more...
F*** the Poem...Now im crying!!!
Water pooling beneath my feet...dripping 
on my speculations
my-self slumped on the rocks...A rocky 
revelation...
eating me alive and breaking more than 
the ground itself
pain sleeping through the pores..Ice Cold 
Body...
wishing to apologize...hypothetically 
speaking...
probably to mine for longing for 
yours...because if it could speak it would 
say
more than it's fair share...to convince me 
it isn't right to continue
especially since i don't condone what was 
done
despite the fact it didn't involve 
me...before it was mentioned
but then again... it did... just not physically
the thought was implanted into the mind
so im trying to be kosher... but im driven 
in this crime of faith 
now we are here in this thing
in this space sharing time
but how can u face me knowing?
Knowing what u know...keeping such 
things..because i know
I know it all...I can see the look when it 
comes time to lie
to present your face...your 
transparent...Dont need 3-D Vision...Clear 
and Present
See I try to become blind sometimes... 
You Know...to keep the truth of the matter 
hidden from sight...to keep it from myself 
so i don't have to deal
with the Infidelity... 
Emotionally...Potentially... Physical!!!
Damn!!! I really don't want anymore 
pain...Do You Care?
Naw.... you don't... oh wait time out... I 
forgot your transparent...
So Let me get this straight... you are still 
in love with him...F*** me instead...WOW
Remember you said "If i had the 
opportunity to and we weren't together I 
would get back together with him"
didn't think i was listening did you?
Do I blame you... Naw Not At All!!!
I blame me for not seeing you sooner
So release me from my pain as I release 
you
