How I Know This Is Love

how i know this is love
because you stay on my mind whether i'am working or doing nothing.
thought of you floats, i'm on cloud nine.
my tongue starts to tinge when i'm about to say your name.
all the pain that should of tore us apart made us stronger.
now what we have i fend for it to last a lot longer.

how i know this is love
because i crazy about the simple things you do not the fancy and expensive 
things you do.
the thought of you leaving me depresses me, the thought of our future family 
excites me.
your eyes drive me insane.
dreams of you in my sleep no other man i see.
when you call to see how my day is touches my soul.

how i know this is love
like a school girl crush you make me blush.
with you i'm kind of neverous and sly, but then you bring out the best of me.
no feelings i want to hide.
my prince charming, like a fairy tale this feels like magic.

how i know this is love
your committed to my happiness.
when my day is sad your day is sad.
my desire's you know inside and out.
the perfect gentleman you are, feels like i been bless my a angel.

how i know this is love 
together we make one person
our hearts connects as one.

Him Over Me

a strong bond we once had.
cousin, but more like sister.
share secrets, i laugh at  your wack jokes and you did the same.
cover and told lies for you.
missing the things we use to do.
you chose him over me.

everyday on the phone we talk about each other problems.
trying to solve them.
i had your back even we i shouldn't have.
remember i was there through thick and thin.
remember when the whole neighbor hood was after you.
where was he when that boy push you down.
i let you go places you shouldn't have been.
you chose him over me.

since he came in your life seem you don't care about anything but you and him.
you don't even care who gets hurts
he got you in his control, that you can't see.
you chose him over me.

he says he love you, then why  must he hurt your heart.
why can't you be the only girl he settles down with.
trying to give you advice, you look the other way.
a waste of time because he already got your mind.
you chose him over me

Hurt

i was just a small girl, when you hurt my  world.
you hurt me for so many days.
days turn into weeks
now i'm left defensive less and weak.
now I've got this big secret on my shoulder.
who can i trust because everyone to busy to notice's hurting me.
what you stole was priceless.
in every one eye sight he hurts me every night.
blind by his kindness.
force to live in hell, my place of home.
faking is so hard, could barely stand too young to make it on my own.
the blood in my underwear, the pain in my eyes; he didn't care.
so young i had to grow up, be strong and stand in the sight of fear.
trap between evil and good.
do other girls go through this? or is this just in my neighborhood.
my hurt and pain how could a little girl take in so much.
i yearn for my mother touch, my father strong hands, my sisters to understand,
my brother to protect me, my cousins to never neglect me, my aunts advice,
my uncles meanest, my best friend hug, my Neice smile, my grandmother 
confront. 
caught  up in sorrow, confuse and daze in my mind  
with my pain i can't go backwards 
yet now i grown and its over and done ,now i leave my past behind and walk 
forward. 
was lost now i'm found
like Maya Angelo i rise! i can to stand on my own ground.
in my soul i forgive but i cant forget, the heartache forever lives inside.
my past i bury and forever hide

His (Poem Story)

the true beauty of his presence, his presence of his shadow as i rest my head to 
sleep.dreaming of him is always so sweet, in my mind i will always keep. the 
scent of his essence, the scent of a fresh rose, a fresh mint. a heaven sent to my 
nose. the sweetness of his kiss upon my lips i can't resist, so soft and gentle i 
never want to go away. forever in my life stay.
the sensation of his touch , the warmth of his hold feels so right. in his arms he 
holds me so tight.the brownest of his eyes, i know he will never tell me lies. his 
strong gaze. i'm sure he wants me in his future. theres no one else i want in my 
world because no one else can make me feel like he do. the deepness of his 
heart, his heart never wants us to part.  in his heart i will always be. the 
blackness of his skin deeply reaches me within; his blackness is his true beauty 
and what makes him so sweet. the purity of his soul to love me i know is his goal.
his soul is what makes him my angel. the smartness of his mind, the mind of a 
master takes full control of me. his  mind hypnotizes and cause other thoughts to 
go blind. his sophication, his ability of his different ways of communication , the 
warmth of his words. i fall head over heels, the love i have for him is truly real. his 
love is why i live. he is my king, he is my everything.

Ms. Jealousy

you took away my dreams and mad me cry.
now everyday i awaken depress asking why i did not die.
you took away my wings so i could not fly.
now how could i face the clear blue sky.
Ms. jealousy, you laugh in my face claiming to help my problems erase.
Ms. jealousy you got your way , now each day awaken my world is gray.
i thought you were a friend of mine.
now i know our friendship was fake, you didn't want to  see me shine.
you lie and said it was others, claim to my sister, but it was you who was really 
out for self.
angel in disguise, devil seek inside you try to hide.
Ms. jealousy, i see now ; my vision no longer blind.
 the grass is cut to see the snakes.
i can't make the same mistake twice, the light shines so bright even at night.
so ms. jealousy goo away  because the lord told me it will be a change today.

Me, Myself, and My Notebooks

the first time i took a pen and wrote some words on a notebook it was for a grade.
now i live it.
now i breathe it.
i express my feelings, feeds my soul.
to publish a least one book is my goal.
writing my everything.
i bleed it.
when i writing it takes all my worries away.
i want to be admire for my thoughts.
writing is my heart, my life.
marry to writing.
addicted to writing.
poems, songs, and story.
i express my feelings, feeds my soul.
i write until it hurts.
nothing matters as long as it's me, myself, and my notebooks.

Mr. Stress

mr. stress, don't  you see the pain in my chest.
you tear my heart solely apart, but when you are around the rain fades and the 
sun shines so bright.
it hurts so much to fend for your touch.
Every time i fall out of love, you make love to me and instantly i'm back in love with 
you.
a lost of innocent, i'm so addicted to the things you do.
i know i should be put to shame because i made loving you my destiny.
mr. stress sometimes it feels you are putting me though a series of tests.
others are concern with this pain i have of you, this obession i have of you.
i can't sleep, i won't  rest until i have you next to me
until my dreams fade into reality.
the promises you made i hold close to my soul. our love story is a story that must 
be told. 
you capture my heart, you capture my fears.
mr. Lover man,  mr. stress, please come to me and tell me you still care.

Daughter To Father

it was always my biggest fear, the thought that if you care.
blind as a child but, now as a young adult i see clear.
you were and still is a mirror image of the father i wanted you to be.
the perfect father like i see on t.v.
at times i look up at the sky and ask God why my father have to lie.
do he treat his other children like he do my sisters and brothers.
a stranger to your family and other children.
how can i love them if we don't know one another.
bills pile up and the landlord threathing to kick us out, father tell me whats that all 
about.
is the same thing on in your household?
because even though mama and you are not marry ya'll still together.
tell me can i come stay with you for awhile until things get better.
i live my life paranoid at the world because at the age nine the devil came by 
surprise and harm your little girl,
force to be a woman in ways i didn't understand. 
where were you when on some Christmas we didn't receive a toy. 
that day i had my first kiss with what i thought was that special boy.
this is a confession from daughter to father in hopes he understand where my 
pain is coming from.
my heart race as i step outside but i know the fear that i have i must hide.
they say the strong only survives.
so in my heart i know i got to live my life as a strong woman then a scare child of 
my past.
sometimes these bad memories take over my mind, take full control.
father hold my hand and help me walk this lonely road.
release these demons hostage in my soul.
daughter to father i love you and i will never ask for to much only that when we fall 
be our clruth.
one day ill love to have you walk down the aial.
help me be the person i need to be.
help me be me.

Love

My heart beats fast.

Unfamiliar  feelings wanting them to last.

Strange when we touch i feel the sensation down my spine.

Confusion in my mind.

In your eyes I'm taken in a dream.

Neverous, chills through my body.

I think you are what my hearts' desire.

The sun shines bright.

My soul's captured from a thief in the night.

Butterflies, my stomach in knots.

Pictures of your body next to mines.

Perfect silhouette.

Sexual fantasies.

Quivers.

A natural high.

Fairy tale, this feel so unbelievable.

It feels like time freezes.

Winter summer breezes.

Wishes I can feel this forever.

Hopes that this will never end.  

Waiting so many days.

one and a million chances, first time i felt this way.

Stuck in his beauty.

Angel graces from above.

Pinch me deep in my heart this can't be real.

True love .

Girl On the Side

you had a girl, but i was young and didn't care.
never knew the meaning of breaking up a happy home.
i thought one day ill have you on my own.
a fool in love.
driving around with another girl man thinking that was cool.
believing his lies, in his dark brown eyes .
visiting his job, with my head held high.
thinking our love was real, thinking our love was strong.
can't believe they let me get in too deep.
friends and family didn't tell me what i was doing was wrong, now my feelings i 
can't keep.
so young and naive.
thought he was a pimp because he had two girls in his world.
i let him get the best of me.
in my heart i knew it was meant to be.
listen to his every word
thought he was Mr. perfect, thought he really care.
he told me my feelings i should never hide.
reality hit i was the girl on the side.
