This Lil Candle

CATEGORY

I have this little glade candle and the fire was burning kinda dim and low

and it reminded me so much of my broken soul.

It was at any minute , at anytime to easily burn out ,

if you been thru what i been thru then you know what my feelings towards this dim light is all about.

It brought of the past and the pain it held , but it stilled burned ,maybe its screaming for help.

Its no longer brand new ,and it cant be replace ,it reminded me of when i was living in the devils place.

and how far i went in life ,i remember when i almost made it end with a knife.

But the glad candle is still lit ,i couldnt help but feel like a part of it.

This little candle showed me that thru all the pain ,life was something i could still handle.

Even with everything going against me ,and if god bless me with another day ,

Then ill be okay and i dont have to have any friends , that day happen for a reason ,so that relation must end,

And for people who hate i learned that shouldnt give me no reason that my fire shouldnt burn , later on in life ,its better to give and to earn.

Because i learned i dont need nobody but myself and people who stood with me.

And f*** everybody who just came to see and my brother who kept beating me.

I know im not perfect but who is ,so everday im just telling myself i can do this.

Because nothing ever stays the same ,and if i want to switch then its time to play another game.

I like to do this so one day ill be able to school this to other young girls like me who still have alot to figure out.

Man its h*ll ,living a life of self doubt.

So im pushing more motivation, because iam gods unique creation. im starting to learn to fill in the spaces.

And to fix my broken soul and to let the past just freely go.

Out along in the wind ,i dont care how long i been on this earth , i can always start over and just do it over again.

Just by lighting this lil glad candle and watching it burn ,it made me realize about how i forgot about all the valuable lessons i learned.

It showed me how little my soul was ,and how i still had light , its about time that i get this thing called life right back on track , because once i leave theres no coming back.

There was this man on the bus, stating loudly discrimination words against black women and such. It was a total shame considering he was the same color as us, making claims that a black woman is weak and she care about is her nails and her weave. And deep down that really offended me, considering his allegations were what most people think that, that most people will look at me as a person who only cares about her nails and her weave. I know alot of strong black women who takes care of their own and if a black man sits up here and bad mouths a black woman then it is within himself not us that some thing is wrong. He put on such a show, such a display I dont know what put in his mind that stating those opinionated words would be okay. This man is a sad and shameful disgrace, you'll hate your own brother and your own sister and still stay in the same place. Don't speak on a subject you don't know much about, I'm a black woman and I dont just worry about my nails and my weave, don't ...

Doubters

I promice you ,you are going to regret doubting me. I remember telling you about my dreams and you throwing stuff out like being a writer for a living was to extreme , for a quiet and shy person like me. And from that moment I realized you just wanted to put me down and misery loves company and you wanted to put me on the ground.

But unlike you I didnt want to join the crowd I was never a follower I allways choose to stand out. I never needed acceptance as long as I knew that I accepted myself ,I never need an okay from anybody else.

In life people always gon hate on you ,they gon hate you for what you not and they gon hate you for what you got. So the only person I wanted to make happy was me and I knew I would go somewhere as long as I continued to believe. Because with faith there's nothing you cant achieve. I came to far to even dare to go back ,I gotta keep moving forward , no time for nothing I cant afford to slack.

The Rose That Grew From The Concrete

The rose that grew from the concrete the one who everybody

Ignored to see without having feet it reach the crack and the world it gave it first peek.

Everybody step and spit on the rose teaching it the hard life having its highs and lows everything seemed black like crows

It barely was making it thru but like a baby it still continued to grew

Nobody knew it would show it went further then people would know

The rose that grew from the concrete proving nature laws wrong

It grew to be very strong

Long live the rose that grew from the concrete

To breath fresh air

Long after before people cared.

Good Bye

February 17 1998

Birth into the world

The doctors announce it was a girl

And she was then given a name

With a skin texture that matched the same

Ebony

Grew up so fast

She hated school so she always skip class

Young teen

With some big old dreams

But living in the ghetto

She always seemed to settle

Then someone told her she needed to be somebody

She needed to go somewhere

And try new things

It had to be natural

Just like being a human being

She felt proud held her head high

Cause she learned the limit is way past the sky

To the lowest she said goodbye.
