Biography

Hello, Welcome to my page. My intentions on my poems are to express myself through words. Not the traditional kind of poetry. My words are heart written and soul formed. Hope you guys enjoy!

The Hurt

Hurt cuts deep As i feel each emotion in my veins. Burning sensations Of a love that should have never been why us? why you? why now? A love that was here, Then decided to leave again. Last time was out of your control. But this time you chose. Chose to leave me and your unborn seed. Forced to live a life with an absent presence. A presence that is yearned for daily. Just the thought of you makes my mind weak. Not the good kind of weak. The kind of weak that leaves you sobbing on your knees. From the yearning of wanting something so deeply. But remembering once again that its unavailable. Unavailable to the heart Unavailable to the soul A love felt so intensely now taking a toll Taking a toll on my mind Constantly reminding myself I am content Rather you chose to stay or disappear Gone like the wind. damn I wish I had a djinn. My first wish would be to grant me the guidance to accepting our current situation. My second wish would be to be granted grace for tearing some shit up physically. My third would be that my twins never know the pain of having someone they love to abandon them like they meant nothing. My twins MY TWINS The acceptance of not being the only one to create them. But choosing to take care of them because they deserve to live. They deserve to have a mother who will love them unconditionally. They deserve a father who will never leave them. They deserve the world, the moon, and the stars. They deserve everything they cherish to have from within. See I know what real hurt will do. I know how the hurt will leave you feeling lost confused. My promise to them is to always be who they need, what they need, and when they need. My goal is to show them the hurt they may feel will never define who they may be.

So well written, thank you for bringing this work into our lives, You are so right. To paraphrase ''The hurt they may feel will never define who they may become.''
Beautiful words, beautiful sentiments
