[Recca Gatsby]

As this rain beats the will of the Earth's drum
Flourish be the fluorescence of a lightning strike known your beauty
Unequivocally the pant of the breath before a word, my whole attention is drawn
I can find shelter in your eyes
A blink the thunder makes hearts flutter
And the room shrinks to a mere shutter
And my ears flex just to hear what you say next
May I be a blind man, I can still read your fable
This tale of you grown deep within side of you
How cute is it you don't see it, so I be your eyes to surmise the surprise in the guise of your disguise
Rings Heaven
Peter make sensation to say of how born this way
Always planned
And you delivered, and then some
Only human due to the unbeknownst
In reality you are a flocking angel in my eyes
I can see your wings flutter in sunrise every day I awaken eyes
Slow motion, time even has to pause for angle of your smile
Eyes beacons, lips the red carpet to your soul
So when I can kiss you I thank God I made it
And when you laugh it expels all
Not a pin drop or a leaf quiver or a wind blow
Just silence in that moment
As I appreciate everything you behold

 

[Recca Gatsby]

Ohhh don’t you hear me crying

Don’t you hear me

You arrived to me four paws deep

I shook one and we are complete

In agreement

You my dog I loved from the moment

A Miracle timing

Ohhh don’t you hear me crying

So I name you as such

You grew fast on me

Always having my back

Your bark and conviction confirming

Your eyes golden

Ohhh don’t you hear me crying

Tell me, why did you leave me

I feed you the half of my morsel

Ohh Miracle

Ohhh don’t you hear me crying

My howling wolf in the night

Your beautiful coat I washed

I come to you with human tongue

And you understood every word

So tell me again

Ohhh, don’t you hear me crying

Our runs in the park

Our conversations

Ohhh, don’t you hear me

Yes you heard every word

So now gone

Ohhh. Don’t you hear me crying

 

[Yo Mama]

I had this on my vanity mirror throughout my teens. I wasn't religious or even a church goer. But it made me feel I should be who I wanted to be and not follow the crowd. To this day I still love it.


The Road Is Too Rough:
by Olga J. Weiss

“The road is too rough,” I said, “Dear Lord, there are stones that hurt me so.”
And He said, “Dear child, I understand,
I walked it long ago.”

“But there’s a cool, green path,” I said. “let me walk there for a time.”
“No, child,” He gently answered me, “The green road does not climb.”

“My burden,” I said, It is far too great; how can I bear it so?”
“My child,” said He, “I remember its weight, I carried My cross, you know."

But I said, “I wish there were friends with me, who would make my way their own.”
“Ah, yes,” He said, “Gethsemane was hard to face alone.”

And so I climbed the stony path,
Content at last to know. That where my Master had not gone, I would not need to go.

And strangely then I found new friends, The burden grew less sore; And I remembered—long ago, He went that way before.

The taste of your
embrace my intellect could never trace
and so i silence thought,
to meet you in that
quiet place
your love's the highest metal,
even gold to it is base
Only within the darkness
may i see Your
Shining face​

 

[PeridotPuss]

Like rotten wood in my stomach
I felt every deep brown burgundy bruised broken part of you

All along the way

Your eyes are a song to me
Here and gone
Set back on repeat

I needed you
I need you still

I have splinters in my heartbreak
Wet haunting nightmares of your breath
Tears mixed with hope mixed with knowing
It all tastes like it's leaving
You stole me
You're the wooden taste in my mouth

I needed you
I need you still

Like rotten wood in my stomach
I felt every deep brown burgundy bruised broken part of you

All along the way

Your eyes are a song to me
Here and gone
Set back on repeat

I needed you
I need you still

I have splinters in my heartbreak
Wet haunting nightmares of your breath
Tears mixed with hope mixed with knowing
It all tastes like it's leaving
You stole me
You're the wooden taste in my mouth

I needed you
I need you still

I need you too.

I stand and a white door appears before me. I am not confused. I am not afraid. For the door that I see is all too familiar to me, but a right hand extends and pulls me away. I stumble and see your face.

"My God," I say, "it is the brightest of days."

"Let me save you now," he whispers.

Here to save me from what? I thought, "I know where I am going and you do not."

"Hush," I hear.

"Stay with me here.

I will give you all that you need, if only you wouldn't abandon my lead.

My care is nothing but the best for you.

Rest alongside me as the sun fades.

I'll still be holding you, at the end of all days."

From light to darkness he stayed.

A word kept and prior feelings fade.

A smile appears, not from mine but from his.

As words of assurance fill my head, I hear the angels on his tongue.

Falling into my heart and into bed I clung.

And all night I was fed words of pure love.

Pretty sure I said I wouldn't share anything here but I've been listening to this song on repeat and it encouraged me to write for the first time in a few years. This song should really be the national uplifting song for black people.



Mine is called black butterfly. Just like the song and it's inspired by the song lyrics. Just finished it after a few hours.

Black Butterfly
Attempting to fly against the winds of pre-judgement
Attemping to soar against the skies of glass ceilings
Black Butterfly
Your struggle gives you the ability to inspire
Pick up your wings and set the skies on fire
Black Butterfly
Write a message in the air
A message all are children can share
Black Butterfly
A symbol of hope and desire
As the winds get stronger you fly higher
Black Butterfly
Confidently sail across the waters
As you become a symbol for are sons and daughters
Black Butterfly
Cheer up those who are down
Save those who are about to drown
Black Butterfly
Crave a new path for us to follow
So that we no longer see things so shallow
Black Butterfly
As you fly, we feel your pain
But it's the only way you can remove the chain

 

[010101]

all the poetry drained from my mind
the pain in my past faded into numbness
the static silence is all that remains
