Rape

What was I to do scared I tried so hard to stop it but nothing I did helped, I 
couldn't scream and I have no idea why,maybe the fear from the fact the one 
thing I never really know if it would've happened to me did or the fact I didn't try 
while it was happening, I wish I could go back and change the mistake made but 
once made it's done. I can't ell my mother she'll never believe me, she'll think I 
meant for it to happen but I struggled and I fought but not hard enough obviously. 
A secret that haunts me for the rest of my life and God only knows that I never tied 
to do that. I still hold that fear within because I don't know who to really trust with 
this secret, in some ways I don't believe I know anyone who will just except this. 
This is the first time I have publicly announced this and I only hope that you won't 
look at me any differently; I need no sympathy I just hope that whoever else reads 
this poem how has been through the same will help make them stronger and 
know that they aren't the only ones, my heart goes out to you.

Date Rape

I am a victim, never thought I would but I was I said it would never happen to me 
but I 
was SO wrong what turned out a be an innocent fun turn out to be the worst day 
of my 
life now that it's done there's nothing I can do but warn you to be carefully of the 
people you hang around, and the worse part about it is he still out there doing the 
same 
thing to some other girl because I never told anyone what happened to me; 
devastated by 
the fact that it was by one of my own best friends I thought I could trust. Nine 
months 
and a child to take of for eighteen years, eighteen years that I'll miss out on like 
my 
prom and ever other thing a teenage girl would do who would've known my drink 
was drugged 
and who would've guessed one of my own friends would betray me. Now I have 
no trust and 
scared to death for the rest of my life believing it might happen again and I'm one 
of 
the many statistic of more than one hundred girl's that was date raped.

Reasons For Suicide

I believe no one loves me, or I've gotten
to a point in my life I ask the question the
reason I'm living for. Depression has taken
over and little do anybody realize it;
I believe everything is my fault because I'm
told it so much I don't know what else 
to believe anymore so I take it out on myself...

My Heaven Sent Angel

I don't think I'll find
no one anymore like you, that
knows how to make me feel the way
you do, that'll treat me the way you 
do. You treat me likeyour queen and can't
say if I'll ever find another like you, my
heaven sent angel. Your love is so pure 
and sweet, I'm so glad you came into my
life my heaven sent angel, I never used
to believe in love because love treated me
wrong but you stepped  in and fixed the
missing pieces of my puzzle that I've
been needing in my life, you became
the man that I've been looking
in all the wrong places for. Really 
you found me not I found you and
you have no idea how it feels after
being knocked down so many time
to be picked up and held by you, to
be comforted and console by you
I'm blessed to have you, my heaven sent angel

Role Reversal

What if god made made men to have babies?
How would our history have changed?
 What if terrorists were Heroes and police were enemies?
 What if the Sun & Moon traded places
 How would it affect our time of day?
 So what if Satan was worshipped  with praise and God was the Ultimate sin?
 What if Coreta Scott King led the million man march rather than Martin?
  What if our past was our future were we destined to fail?
 What if South America was the mother land what would that make Africa?
It's just a Role Reversal
What if our four founding father were Muslim men?
What if our US Constitution was written by Native Indians?
What if we went by philosopy and not by religion?
What if killing was the Ultimate justice of the land?
What if the first person to touch the moon was an animal?
What if we were animal pets and we had tolearn from them
What if the US was in poverty and Africa was in power?
What if living was the ultimate death and dying was the ultimate life?
It's justa reversal of roles Just think about it
for a while...
 What If?

I Sought After...

I sought after the ocean waves, their beauty glistened in the moonlight, 
I raced the ever changing tide, beneath the eyes of twilight. 
I kissed the vermillion rose petals, like rubies in the sand, But nothing that I chased, compared to the touch of your hand. 
I ran to catch the fading rain, as it fell into the sea, 
I pushed my toes beneath the sand, willingit to love me. 
I glimpsed a shooting star, that shattered the sky above, 
But nothing that I found, replaced the beauty of your love. 
I chased the first light of dawn, as it stretched across the sky, 
Crashing into midnight, as the stars began to die.

Is It Really Worth Living For?

The world hates you, so what do you do? you listen to the
voice inside your head telling you one and your heart
telling you another. Too many tears you cried so many you
never lied upon but your the one to blame for the things
THEY DO; too much drama in your life all around you, you
begin to believe what's being told to you. Refuse to cry
another night why when you could just take your life?
contemplating suicide means never worrying about being a
burden to everyone, because that's one less peron to worry
about; your pillow soaked in tears like a puddle of rain in
a hole in the ground, so tired of fighting against the one's
you'll never win. One last entry in my diary before I say
good-bye, it's only to tell you how deeply sorry I am for
being the burden on your heart and hope you can forget me
for that and what I'm about to do. Words would have never
expressed enough how much love I have for everyone, tell
the family I'm gone for good and I don't mean I ran away,
let them indulge in deep thought what you mean. Show them
the letter I wrote before I left telling how I felt about
them and how I felt like the failure to the family, stay
together and keep in touch with one another is my only wish
I had before I passed and hopefully you kept. I know where
my soul is headed, no surprise I bought it upon myself but
I'm not around and I cannot bring myself back to life.Can't
answer my own question, so much confusion in the air I dare
not try to understand my own question, seeing as it will
only puzzle my brain even more but I put leave my question
open to the public: is it really worth living for?

Broken Heart Longing To Be Loved

An empty heart that has tried and failed many time has picked up the broken shattered
 pieces of her heart,only to trip over her own feet and scatter them further than they 
were at one point.Wondering if it's meant to be, for someone to love her despite the 
fault she has; is there anyone that can look pass the way she look? the way she talks the 
way she smile and her personality tell you a different story than what to see on her 
outer appearance, or will you let that stand in the way of knowing who she really is? 
Ready to give up on love,the emotional roller coaster so worn down and worn out and not 
one bit of honest there is the relationship longing to be love just for who she is she's 
just another statistic of a  broken heart longing to be loved.
