Rehnesha Santos Poem
At times it feels like the world is out to get her. Sometimes it seems like no one is on her side. She has been left by her father. Been told she's fat by her grandmother. Nothing she ever does pleases her mother. She has been cheated on and lied to by most past boyfriends...take that back. ALL past boyfriends. Older guys look at her with wondering eyes. Everyone tells her hello...but they also say goodbye.
She's finally tired of being told a handful of lies. She's tired of hearing the same ole goodbyes. She's tired of betrayal and constant hurt feelings. She's tires of thinking she's not good enough for the sexiest guy to be with. She's tired of meaningless "I love you"s. She's tired of these damn trust issues.

Rehnesha Santos Poem
I continue to laugh when a joke is far from over
At night, I sleep with my head under the cover
When bad things happen I go into denial
Yes, I am my mother's child
My hands shake when I'm nervous
God Almighty, High and Righteous
Is probably disappointed of my lifestyle
Yes, I am my mother's child
When I walk, I wobble
When I talk, I tend to stumble
Sometimes I like to wear my hair wild
Yes, I am my mother's child
When I love, I love hard
I like quotes on Hallmark cards
I hate hot sauce and love mild
Yes, I am my mother's child

Rehnesha Santos Poem
If there was another me
I would walk, and hold her hand
Let her know, I understand
"Can I get through life?", "Yes you can!"
If there was another me
I would be her shoulder she can cry on
She'll come to me, so I can shed light on
Tough situations that are going on
If there was another me,I would tell her
"Yes, it'll be hectic", I'll tell her
"But, you can do this", I will say
"You're going to get through this"
"Go get it, you got this"

Rehnesha Santos Poem
Like a rock it was hard
Yet fragile and delicate
It was able to be broken
She gave it to him and he loved it
He cared for it, he held it
He caressed it at night
He listened to it, he understood it
Gave it wings to take flight
He kissed it
Hugged it everyday
Promised to never hurt it
And to love it always
But then one day
Another one came
Catching his attention
He dropped the old one and ran away
He kicked it, he bruised it
Just left it in the rain
She picked it up
With tears in her eyes
She held it in her hands
Felt the pain deep inside
Who is she?
Well she is me
Who is he?
He's the heart thief
And the heart thief...
He stole my heart from me

Rehnesha Santos Poem
Its warm
Its soft
Easy to hold
So great, you can't let go
It swirls around your body
Takes control of you
It feels so good
You can't make a move
You can feel it through your fingertips
You get a tingling sensation
It feels so nice
Its your final salvation
You want it all the time
Because it feels so right
First thing in the morning
Last thing at night
It doesn't last long
But you enjoy it
I doesn't happen everyday
But you want it

Rehnesha Santos Poem
We were in love, you were my ev’rything
Our love was strong, it was unbreakable
We thought we were gold based off us shining
Us together was another level
Yes we did glitter, but we weren’t gold
Loving someone when you are young is hard
You pitched me lies and sadly I was sold
You has a deck and I pulled the wrong card
You hurt me constantly but I am strong
I let you go for my own sanity
I held on for what it seems like too long
Once I let go, I found my clarity
I depended on you for happiness
I see, now, when I’m with you, I’m lifeless

Rehnesha Santos Poem
Today is Today
Tomorrow is Tomorrow
No laughter, or joy
Just pain and sorrow
Stare into space
And see nothing but hate
Then come to realize
You're stuck just like paste
Look at my smile
It seems so real
But underneath my beauty
I'm filled with fear
Today is Today
Tomorrow is Tomorrow
No laughter, or joy
Just pain and sorrow
I don't know what to do
Don't know where to go
No place to run to
Let my true feelings show
No one to talk to
No one understands
No one knows what it feels like
To be who I am
Today is Today
Tomorrow is Tomorrow
No laughter, or joy
Just pain and sorrow

Rehnesha Santos Poem
Headphones on and volume all the way up. She uses music to escape the world. The beat of the music is the beat of her heart. The rhythm is loud and disorganized. All of her feelings harmonize semi-perfectly to form a dismantled melody. She wraps herself around the lyrics and she becomes the song. Only problem is... no one is listening.

Rehnesha Santos Poem
She can't think straight and she doesn't know what she's doing
She's tired of watching the needles of the clock keep moving
Time is running out and she wants to throw up her hands
"Without a doubt", she says, "Today it all ends"
Sharp and ready, she has her blade
Her parents aren't home, she has it made
She rolls up her sleeves, and says "Tonight is the night"
The blade cuts deep in her skin, that was the last slice

Rehnesha Santos Poem
Drive me crazy
But I still love you
Treat me wrong
But I still love you
You walk away
Should I follow?
Are we just going to repeat this
Again tomorrow?
Another day
That you're upset
Wait a minute
Let me guess
I did something wrong
In your mind
Because in reality
I've been here the entire time
Never left your side
Never disrespected you
But still you treat me
Like I mean nothing to you
You told me
You want to be with me
But you act
Like you don't notice me
Because I am who I am
I'm going to stick it out
I'm going to fight for what I want
Til' I can't even shout
No matter what
I'll always love you
From beginning to end
I'll be here for you
