Black Poetry : Stronger Than Your Fist

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than the first hits received
over some half-*** lie that you perceived
when all i did was write of love

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than the greatest link
of lies which connect you to me
when all i wanted was to believe

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than the last woman you put through this
I can change the man that you are
to not become a statistic, I will hide a million scars

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than your expressions of sorrow
for what has happened today may happen tomorrow
no matter, i am grateful for this small reprieve

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger then my desire for yesteryear’s kiss
knowing in my heart i shouldn’t be here
living everyday swallowing fear

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than the clinical knowledge i possess
that tells me to walk while i remain motionless
so caught up in the changing you i forget about me

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than the bond your daughter and I share
i have always been there for her who will now care
this can not be my thought as i pack to leave

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than the love i ever held for you
wondering how your child will take the news
when i walk out the door, everyone will lose

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger then the tears that flow free
looking around I realize there is nothing to see
everything i invested was shattered with my pride

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than the beat down you received
when friends found out I had deceived
and all along you had been hitting on me

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than the impulse that takes over me
to call and ask how you are doing and how the kids are
i know in my heart i can not go that far

I am Stronger than your Fist
Stronger than even I knew I was
when I look at the calendar and a year has gone by
and I am in love with a man who doesn’t question why
all the horrible things you said were going to happen if I ever left
are not close to coming true
i just needed to wake up and pursue
my ambitions and stop opening myself to you.
I am Stronger than your Fist
