Black Poetry : corrupting you

[Randee]

i could try to understand
why everything in my life
seems to fall apart
especially those closest to my heart
why i keep pushing when
i really want you near
and why it is i still jump in fear
at every loud noise and when voices rise
why i try to stab before
i'm attacked and why i
simply don't go after what i lack
i could try to understand
but the facts remain
I accept these things
will stay the same

and now, when i want things right
when i am tired and trying to
give up this internal fight
why does everything i touch
still end up corrupt
you think its your luck thats
got you down and out
but its another page
in the chapter of my life
i am only your captor

to accept pain...
as a part of the story
I too can relate to
such a sentiment
while others think
they have bad luck
they fail to see...
it's an onging saga
of my lifes story...

Feeling the pain in this piece...
Very well written...
the emotion radiates...
from the page...

Mannnnnnnnnnnn...shoot. I've been there...and it ain't a nice place to be. You start doubting self...thinking negative of self...feeling confused...thinking something's wrong with you...almost losing hope. Actually, I think it's GOD's way of making you looking toward her/him.

for sharing your personal mental trial and tribulation.

This was an insightful piece. I like it because it is so different. Great flow

Girl, I truly feel you. Fear keeps us fenced off from much of what we love, until we one day rise up. Much love to you, sister, as you continue to forage on. This flow is lovely.
