 * __ What did I do __**__ ? __

Why can’t I eat with you? You play far away in the park You say I’m too dark I get abused Black It’s not an excuse I sit in the back of the bus We belong with you, and you belong with us So I cry Ask God why? You’re so mean And You can’t see How it feels to be me What did I do?


 * __ The imagery Poem __** :

Look up at the sky seeing Clouds all around but wait There’s a line going through The sky on a rainy day Beautiful But Different Looking besides me seeing little hands Trying to touch the small river We have in the Village… Getting dark the moon Came out, I had to put two blankets On top of me just To keep me a little Warm…


 * __ Pain tree : __**

Wake me from this dream This horrible, horrible dream Where art is life And life is pain And pain is when you scream I walk these aisles By myself I’m going to walk Myself to death Moving along Like a slug In a world too Fast for me Leaving a trail Of blood and glass that slime of past Dragging it all behind Me……….


 * __ Forget Him __** :

Forget his name Forget his face Forget his kiss His warm embrace Forget the love you once knew Remember he has someone new Forget him when they play your song Remember you cried all night long Forget how close you once were Remember he has chosen her Forget how you memorized his walk Forget the things he used to say Remember he has gone away Forget his laugh forget his grin Forget the dimples on his chin Forget the way he held you tight Remember his with her tonight Forget the time that went so fast Forget the love that moved, it’s past Forget he said he’d never leave you Remember his gone forever...


 * __ Love : __**

What’s Love? As a teenager that question is on your mind Every day and every second you can’t help but ask if every time someone you care About say “I Love you” if they really mean it. But how do you know they mean it if you don’t really even know what it really means yourself. Love is kind, Love is gentle, Love let’s you escape from reality even it it’s only for a second. Love is happiness, it’s also painful at times but it’s okay. When you love someone your best friends first then Lovers second. A lot of people ask how do you know if someone loves you? Your heart will know on it’s own. When someone loves you is there in their eyes It’s in there action It’s in the way they say your name The way your heart beats on every word they say So next time your mind is asking what is love? Let your heart answer that question Because at the end of the day your heart knows best.
