Black Poetry : ~I STAND INSIDE~~

[4EVERLUV]

Inspired by baller's "I Stand Outside"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

i stand inside these dreamy walls safe and tall

wondering constantly if he will ever call

or come inside to join me

if only he could just trust and believe

that stepping inside might coincidentally be

exactly where he longs to be

but yet i stand inside looking out at he….

and he stands outside looking inside at me

contemplating should we take a chance …. once again

i stand inside because its become my comfort zone

and although some days i feel so alone

alone is what i choose to be

instead of taking the risk of losing

the most beautiful part of me (my heart)…..

i stand inside thinking outside of my mind

about you and how you stand outside….

wondering if

your thinking inside of your mind

of passionate times beginning with me and ending with you

awaking to windows drenched in the mornings dew

but yet i still stand inside and you still stand outside

neither wanting to brave the chance of love and romance

intimate dance hands holding hands walking on baby powder sand

love’s pains gone but not forgotten emotionally holding us hostage

as i stand inside looking outside at you

i want to be the one to stop this madness that we do

and open up loves doors wide for you

make it is easy for you to choose

to take a trip inside

and cruise straight pass those outside blues

but still i stand inside….wishing you

were inside too​

This is very beautiful.

There are so many lines in this flow I like.

i stand inside because its become my comfort zone

and although some days i feel so alone

alone is what i choose to be

instead of taking the risk of losing

the most beautiful part of me (my heart)…..

i stand inside thinking outside of my mind

about you and how you stand outside….

wondering if

your thinking inside of your mind

of passionate times beginning with me and ending with you

4EVERLUV...this is as beautiful as your name...

This outside-inside dilemma simmers
As meditations on love
And the pain of love
Causes love
To fade away
Another day of
“Should I-Would She” questions
Of life lessons
And the constant struggles of guessing
Got us messing ‘round with
Hopes and dreams
Thinking of glorious things
And the doors it opens
I’m hoping
That what tomorrow brings
Is more of YOU and ME
BUT…IT SEEMS
This outside aim
Isn’t about you and me
But the solitary pain
Of the journey I’ve claimed

‘TIS MY FAME.

But journeys sometime change
And destinations change
And chances are taken
On risky relations
Coz being alone
And standing alone
Inside or outside ones throne
Isn’t the comfort zone
We long for

SO…
There is a coming together
ME and YOU
Cleaver…The words you use
“Windows drenched in morning’s dew”
Yet, we forever choose
The inside world
Or, an outside blues

OVER LOVING YOUS​

 

[Lataisha Nicole]

Wow, This poem is beautiful and touching. I sense the yearning for a love, that is not returned or maybe just can't be, for whatever reason. Waiting, knowing that though he can be pulled in, who would be the blame for a broken heart in the end. Knowing that if he comes on his own accord, then that love, may just be forever yours, but sometimes, it's nice to just jump in head first, throw all the cards up into the air and let them fall where they may, having in the end, no regrets.
I loved this write, and Baller I loved your reply!
My interpretation may not be right, but reading this made me think and feel good, which is poetry's ultimate goal.
Thank you!
Bless!
