One night

A conversation with my friend inspired me to write this poem...I was really disappointed when she told me about this guy b/c he seemed different from the rest but I was proven wrong! Hopefully I will find that diamond in the rough cause all I see now is a bunch of coal lmao

From the beginning I made no promises
This situation had no strings attached
I know you want to be my girl
but I'm not ready for all of that
Can we just live in the moment
Instead of worrying about what tomorrow may bring
I can just up and leave right now
and not feel a thing
Not worried about what you may think
because there is no us
I don't care about what you do after this
because there is no trust
Our time is right here right now
You are my temporary reliever of stress
That was the deal from the beginning
Never asking for no more or no less
I am about to leave before it gets tense
You are not important enough for us to continue to fight
Just know that the next time I come around
The only thing I owe you is one night

Every other girl

This is dedicated to all of the "players" of the world...you have met your match with me!


You thought that I was a hit it and quit it type chick
Someone you could bag and run through right quick
Cause you are used to smashing every cute thing that walks by
Believe me when I tell you there is more to me than meets the eye

Since I resisted your advances you think I'm playing a game
To you women are like pawns on a chess board we're all one in the same
I am one in a million the type of person that comes along once in a blue moon
And its your fault that you thought you could have me so soon

Trust me when I say that I'm a different kind of breed
Sex is something to be cherished for you its something you need
You need it to feel better about the man you think you are
In reality you have a boy's mentality and that won't get you far

Days turn into weeks and you still haven't gotten your "prize"
I turn you down and keep it real with you, you respond by telling me lies
"You know that you are special to me. I'm just not ready to settle down."
"I have to get this out of my system but one day soon I will come around."

I can only look forward not back and I certainly don't have time to wait
Building a life on broken promises will only end in a disappointing fate
I see right through the bullshit and I can't deal with a man like you
Someone who is vain and shallow and who's heart remains untrue

You are upset that you failed at your own game
Many men have tried to play me but the end results were always the same
I told you from the beginning that I am not like the rest
Before I give my heart to any man I put him to the test

It hurts to find so many failures but at least my pride remains intact
There was a time in my life where I let a man throw me off track
I am wiser and stronger now and know that I deserve the world
And to think you thought that I was just like every other girl!

No matter what

This is a freestyle poem meaning I just wrote it down based on what I was feeling at the time...it isn't my best work but its good lol....its called no matter what and for those who are wondering this situation described in the poem never happened to me so don't think I'm going through it right now lmao! here goes!


Woke up feeling woozy but I don't remember taking any medication
All I can focus on was our last conversation
You said that you loved me but that just wasn't enough anymore
and that you would never forget what we had then you walked out the door

I get up out the room and see remnants of broken glass
Did I black out or did everything just happen too fast?
I start sweeping but when I saw the picture I dropped the broom
I snapped once again and threw it halfway across the room

The frame hit the mirror and the vase sitting on the vanity table
At one point in time I could push past this but now I'm no longer able
I go to pick up the pieces and didn't stop until I noticed I was bleeding
Don't care about the bruises my heart hurts far more cause you're the one I'm needing

How do I just forget about us and pretend that everything is alright?
You live inside of my soul even though you are out of my sight
All these years thrown out the window all because you gave up on me
You gave up on what we had and where we wanted to be

When things became too tough you took the easy way out
You let other people cloud your head with insecurities and doubt
When you are in love nothing or no one could step in our way
You used to say our love would last forever and a day

Forever is a long time too long for you to push past the pain
Too long for you to wait for the sunshine that comes after the rain
If I could do it all again the 2nd time I wouldn't make the same mistakes
He would give 100% and make it work no matter what it takes!

The Ride

I was listening to Beanie Siegel's record towards Jay-Z when I heard him say something that hit me hard he said "I understand, everybody can’t go and you already on…" I have been trying so hard to keep the same group of friends that I grew up with but I am starting to understand that not everyone can go with you when you are trying to go places in your life. Those same friends that were the ones that kept me going have become the ones that are holding me back. Whether it be their negative attitudes towards my hopes and dreams or just drama in their own lives they have become extra baggage instead of helping me carry the burdens on my shoulders. That one line inspired me to create this poem titled "The Ride"

I was told not to follow my dreams but to chase them
so I am running until I lose all of my breath
Nothing or no one can stop me
I was born to do this so I will continue until death

The same ones that were there since the beginning are still hanging on
but we no longer travel at the same speed
They have become a heavy weight that I drag along with me on this journey
and have set me back which is something that I don't need

I love them so much that I tried to make them understand my passion
and why I choose to deal with some of life's pain
they look at me confused because they think I should take the easy way out
and deep down inside they think I'm insane

They tell me that I could have had the easy life
instead of taking risks and chances that are not seen as wise
if I would just think logically and played it safe
I would have already earned the ultimate prize

I have always thought outside of the box
never lived my life based on other's expectations
So if I have to fail before I succeed
I will gladly go through all of the trials and tribulations

So many feel that I have made the wrong choices
and as much as this is going to hurt inside
I have to let you and all of your negativity go
Not everyone can come along for the ride

To forgive and forget...easier said than done!

I am a very forgiving person....too forgiving at times but I feel that you can't be mad at someone forever especially if its over something so petty so if I am angry at someone for a long period of time and I won't let the shit go then its serious. This guy I used to be real cool with when I was younger played me and disrespected me and when I confronted him about it he had no remorse. He looked down upon me and what hurt the most is that he knew me when I was at a low point in my life and was someone who would always be so encouraging and positive. When his attitude towards me did a complete 180 it surprised me at first then angered me. Then I realized why I was so mad. He had changed but for the most part I didn't.I still fed into the insecurities that haunted me when we were younger and I let his opinion about me and my life influence my feelings and behavior towards different situations. It made me so mad because I was always so supportive of him and proud of his accomplishments but when I found out how he flipped on me I wanted him to fail more than anything. His failure wouldn't help me succeed but I wanted him to feel the way I felt. I let him get under my skin and make me bitter and that was the worst thing I could have done. I often wondered about running into him at different places and how I would react towards him.I saw him from a distance recently and tried to avoid confrontation b/c I knew if we spoke I would be mad at myself afterwards for pretending to be nice when in reality I wanted to wring his neck lmao. This situation has been weighing heavily on my mind and I realized that being mad at him is not hurting him especially since he's living life(living it up real nice I might add) and I am still in the same place mentally and physically that I was in b4 any of this drama happened. I need to live my life and be successful in my own right. I feel that you have to have send out positive vibes in the atmosphere for positive things to happen in return. Being mad at him makes me mad at myself and I can't live my life being a bitter person. I forgive him and wish him the best. God has a plan for me that no one can destroy and I know that my success will come in due time. Until then I'm gonna keep pushing...pushing all of the obstacles and negativity out of my way so my vision becomes clearer and within my reach!!!! Much love!
