HOOD LOVE

CATEGORY

just different

Views: 230

 

The heat from the fire

The smell of your skin

The smell of burning condemned houses

The hustlers on the corner

The hos walking the stroll

The corner store selling loosies

The fights in the alley

The smell of cooking...BBQ or a pot greens in the cold months a funky pot of chitterlings

These are the smells and sights in my Hood

The hate, love, fury, frustration, strength, sorrow, joy, tolerance, endurance,

All of these thing lie within

The look of disappointment in her eyes drives a brother to live a dangerous life

The look of disappointment in his eyes drives a sister to set her morals aside

The neighborhood bonds them they fight for it they live it

The family they have some supportive, some thieves, some addicts

The killings, the parties, the young girl raising babies

The beatings, the cursing

The hood life is crazy

So much hate and anger rises from here

A lot forget to see all the love that has survived here

The love of a hood boy and hood girl

Rising from the heartache and the hard hood life

Pushing each other to complete their goals

Not leaving the hood for good

But getting out is the main goal

No matter the address the hood will live in their souls

The colorful people, the history, the food, happiness, even the evil and pain is something they will never forget

The love they share is stronger than most

Not all love can endure the hood life because it can be a cold harsh world

The hood is a world like no other it can and produce some of the strongest sisters and brothers

When you see a young couple and the only thing you see is

HOOD

HO

HUSTLER

STREETS

Try to look past the urban dress and swinging dreads

Look in their eyes and you might just see something incredible...

A hood love that

SURVIVED.
