'I write because I know how, it’s how I breath, it’s how I know. It’s my weapon of all weapons, drawing the silver linings to clouds, giving pictures a meaning and colors definition. I write because I think, I think too much and do too little. It is within my burning soul to write and somehow find answers in between those lines. To tell a story, maybe a survival story , maybe to record that I was here and I too somehow made up this universe during my time. Let me write… let me breath. ' Amanda

Patience is a virtue
Sitting here anxious...wondering how imma make it to tomorrow. I have no idea what tomorrow hold and it scares me but patience is a virtue. I will wait patiently for God and what he gonna test my faith with. Have me feeling like a criminal always looking over my shoulder waiting for that one thing to go wrong. I don't wanna rush now to say goodbye to today to have to face tomorrow & not have my armor on... You see I'm a warrior I have to wear my protective gear.. ok tomorrow I'm ready to face you now.

Forever&Maturity
Dear lil person,
Grow up and treat your mother as the Phenomenal woman she is... Your relationships will never last if you think the woman gotta put up with your childish behavior cuz forreal the door will always be OPEN.. out the door they will vanish like smoke.. lucky you I gave you chances. I was the reality of your dreams but I will become your NIGHTMARE.
Sincerely& Truthfully
The girl that NEVER loved you
So its annoying how my status on aim be changing like a ghost was typing shit. Why check my shit if you say you don't care, seriously MOVE ON 'cause I sure did. INSECURITY dominate you, that was never an issue for me or maybe I simply didn't care. I don't even have a dick but you seem to be on it HARDBODY.
. I'm not even tryna be harsh but baby you asked for this. Pardon my back... Slowly walking away as you fade to NOTHING.

"I'm not from here"
You ask me who the fuck I'm talking to? I tell you nobody then you disappear and don't say shit when you do. What the fuck am I suppose to think?I feel like you're trying to get rid of me by asking if I'm trying to get rid of you? Reverse psychology I think it is. I pray I am not a fool for believing in people again. I can't go through the process of closing all out. That's why I write 'cuz I'm tired of people always tryna pull shit on me. What the fuck do you take me for?
As I'm writing this I still contemplate the sentences to follow. Am I living in a state of illusion? I don't know.
I notice I ask a lot of questions but neer get the direct answer to them...or no answer at all. Right now everything fustrates me...seriously I need to spread my fucking wings and fly the fuck away.
People in my kay would never understand.
All I'm trying to do is make a difference so why not cut the rope you people got tied to my feet. Give a sister a lil space to breathe. Due to all the bullshit that occur I write...DOn't take this into meaning.
*This is my means of getting anger out.* I'm not trying to be harsh.

Sleep x__x
Its so smooth&provides a sense of euphora
When I wake up tomorrow
I hope I can forget all that happen today
I will focus on the present
Got me on my knees eyes toward the sky praying
When will this day end?
When will I have peace of mind?
Sleep...come be the alcohol that smoothly makes its way to the bloodstream
A sense of euphorism is all I want right now
I want sleep to come erase the happenings of today from my mind
The anger inside
Give me strength to scream
To hold tighter to those I cherish
For I feel like their slipping away slowly
I feel like he is loosening his grip on my hand
Please hold tighter
That I hope sleep doesn't erase from me
I've said enough for tonight and so I must sleep x__x
My tears
I don't let them fall from my eyes but my finger tips
I just won't let them..

Thoughts by the water
Her spirits floats on the water
Bird flew so close
That it snatched her soul
Her face became faint in my vision
There was a drop of water that came from the sky
It was as if she was crying
Tears I couldn't decipher when blend in with the water
I watch as the bird continues its flight
To the sky unknown to me
It white feathers showed her pureness
Dear mother oh how I wish I can see your face one more time
Hear your tender voice one last time
As the years go by the fainter you become in my memory
With just three pictures I paint your face again in my mind
Your gracefulness never forgotten
Your tender spirit surrounds me so smoothly
Though at times your face gets faint
I paint you with my words
I frame you with my heart
I shield you with my soul
There's only so much I can do
I hold you so dear in my heart
Like you held me when I was a baby
As the years go by your touch no longer lingers
When I look in the mirror your reflection looks at me with so much
love
I embrace your tender eyes in the mirror
Yet I reflect daddy's pain
If only I held tighter
Je me manque maman
The coldest hour of the night
As I drift away to a place where I can still feel his fingers tracing my body
Leaving a mark on my soul
With just one touch there's so much it does to me
I turn to face the wall
Memories flooding my mind
Pain shudder my heart
As I sleep,I feel a tear roll down my face
It was cold, made me shiver
That's my coldest hour of the night it's like 4 or 5
Not sure what number it is I'm dazed
Feeling the shivers dominating my body
I wrap myself tighter in my blanket
And my mind lingers back to him
I slightly open my eyes
I see his tall lenient figure in the dark
He steps closer to me and lay next to me
His body radiates warmth
He wraps his arms around me
I no longer feel cold
I drift back into a slight "tabula rasa" with only him in mind
I sleep soundly
When I woke up his warmth was there but he wasn't
Yet I still feel his presence
Coldest hour of the night was when I realized that he wa...

Delicate
I'm as delicate as a flower yet I'm as harsh as harsh can be
I look like a butterfly yet sting like a bee
I can be smooth as smooth can be but yet just as rough
I'm delicate but I don't carry myself like I'm breakable
I'm not glass so I don't break
I'm not sugar or salt so I don't melt
Bu who I am is: The delicacy of my mother,The pride of my father... the list goes on... But I am never that flower whom you say have an odor
For you see I have a scent
I tingle your nose with my scent
My scent you quite can't put a word to it
I'm a delicate flower that doesn't wither away so easy
Unspoken
I've shed a lot of tears for all the mountains I've climb
The ones I've lost most dear to my heart...
They are unspoken
But they are written on a tablet in my heart
Forever engraved in my memory
Gone but never forgotten..
Unspoken but yet felt through the words I write of you
I will let the whole world know now that i've gained the courage to speak your name without a tear
Unspoken but yet known...
I love you and no one can ever take your places..
R.I.P Mom and Dad
Illusion
Sitting having a conversation about my writing
When I write I try to disguise as much as possible
See the things is I only want my audience to see what I want them too
That's what most writers do
They want you to figure out what's real and what's not
Writing is a form of illusion to me because you only see what is presented to you nothing more or less
My writing is an illusion
but sometimes read between the lines...
You will discover...
Untitled [I soon will have a title]
waiting for his lean figure to appear outta the sun
Sweet summer night we await
Never wanting to depart
for "parting is such sweet sorrow"
As the rain fall my tears blend in
As times goes by though it fly by too fast
I wish I can suspend time
'Cause I'm so mesmerize by your beautiful brown eyes
Look in my eyes and you'll see shooting stars
That only happens when i look at you

Just because
Yesterday was a great day and I cant find enough words to describe the feelings my heart is overwhelmed with
Just because I had a great day I wanted the whole world to know
I'm my MAXIMUM never your minimum
I put all of my blood out there but yet you never see it flow
it's like you don't even think that we have the same blood running through our vain
You never see eye to eye with me
Its like your mind is stuck on yesterday...
Living still when things used to be so easy
Being carefree... having to worry about anything
Must you do that to yourself...
Woman grow up and be phenomenal
Though you can never be phenomenal to me but to somebody else you can make a difference
Its hard to forgive you
But I'm on a journey to that path though I stray from it time
the hurt and pain always resurface when I try to forget what you did
And move on with what I have now...
Now you got me stuck on yesterday
But today I evolved...
I'm better than yesterday
I know for so long that I'm a maximum
But now I shout it for the whole world to hear
I'M MY MAXIMUM AND NEVER YOUR MINIMUM
In a crowd but all alone
Yet everything around me is moving at a speed I cant describe
I'm in a crowd but yet all alone
Somewhere my eyes set on you and as I walk down this path
On a journey to forgive those who have done me wrong, love those who love me, help those who need help...
Trying to be sociologically mindful here...
All I feel is nothing but warmth with no meaning..
Its like layin on the bed reaching for someone who is no there
Reality sets in and I grab the pillow and whisper your name
I look out the window and whisper sweet things so the wind can carry them to you
I used to feel nothing but now I feel the conture of your body next time
I am not in this journey alone
Its us versus the world
we may lose a couple battles but we will win this war

Am I?
Back home I left a girl just living each day as if it were her last
It was as if nothing mattered but those that cared
Besides that others feelings didn't matter
I was the girl with a hard shell around her heart
Ready to fight away anybody that tried to take down that shell
Am I your maximum or your minimum?
Why am I asking? When your opinion on that doesn't matter
I strive for the best because of those before me that never got that chance to get where I am today
i have to make a difference in others lives because many people made my journey a lil easier
I was the girl at times that became the shoulders on which you cried but what about me?
Did you ever wonder how I made it through the day or night?
Did my emotions really matter to you or the fact that you wanted to satisfy my desire?
was it because you were absent in my early years?
I would sit and wonder why must you act this way
I look through books but yet find no scientific term to why you do what you do?
Am I all the being that i can be to impact your life and yet still be the girl with the hardshell around her heart
Forever there are those embedded there

7 Holding Controversial 13
Unlucky #13 have just been named the best number
There are 13 of us who are going to change people's mind about unlucky 13
I one of the 13 sit upon 7 sturdy poles
sturdy poles with experience ,who are wise
Controversial 13 Known as an unlucky number
The day when bad things occur
Don't you think change is here
Obama made change
There's always room to better yourself
13 such an unlucky number
I am part of a changing era
The look in the eyes from those who look down on controversy 13
show that we don't deserve this opportunity
we will make a change
As time fly by
we are class of 2013

Am I asking for much??
I smile to show my content of my accomplishment
Yet you try to drag me down and tell me I can't do this&that
I am not a child of whom you have to change from time to time
You don't have to put on a smile to pretend that you want me to succeed
'Cuz in heart you know that you want me to stay in the same spot as you
I'm not asking for much, I'm just asking to loosen up a little bit
& release me from this tight grip you have on me
My brotha I am not asking for much
Why won't you consider my request?
Is it that narrow mind of yours that tell you don't let go?
My brotha I will escape your tight grip
I listen to what you have to say now why won't you listen to me?
I'm not asking for much...

And then there's today
Today is like yesterday except I just don't want to be bothered by people and some people are slow and don't understand that
I just want to get away
but then there's today when the whole world is upside down
Just hope tomorrow is better than yesterday&today

Freedom of the mind when will I ever?
Late night thinking and staring at the ceiling waiting for someone to say
"You are finally free."
Nations say they are free but its limited
Never limitless.
Freedom of the mind when will I ever?
My brothers and sisters let us free each other of the pride&prejudice.

HOVER PASSENGER
They also look right at you, their silent way of telling you to get up
After school the people coming from work look at you and act tired
Come on I'm tired too. I will NOT give up my seat for a person that had a long day like me UNLESS you're pregnant or old. I said "pregnant" not "FAT".
"FAT" is the lady with the big belly falling over the pants and they appear "pregnant"
The Hover passenger hovers over you to look at the map, the picture behind your head
To get a closer look at you, taking a mental note that if they see you everyday they start thinking they know you
Next thing you know they're going to start waving at you
aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrg
Elders say not to talk to strangers
Hover passengers
I hate when they walk in the train and look at you
Silently telling you to get up....

Conformed or Trained
Us children of the future I believe are trained like we are dogs
But some of us children conform because we don't want to be trained
It's like the society controls our thinking because the society decides what they consider beautiful, fashionable, normal etc...
Think about it what is the definition of normal?
I don't believe that there are normal people in the world for every individual have a characteristic that is probably considered weird
We of the human kind are very unique
Certain cultures train their people or maybe they tried to rebel against the training that they simply conform to the ways of the society because they see that there is no way they can win
In a sense we are never free because we are slaves to the ways of society
I see how the people in my neighborhood
In them I see trained people
because the way they talk it's like somebody told them their lines
They're like characters in a book
Living their life to the script
You might think to yourself
well is she trained or did she conform?
I was trained then i realized that and change the way i think
Only to take certain things from my trained mind and dispose the rest in a place where it won't seep into anothers mind
to a corrupt a corrupted mind
Corrupted world, corrupted government, corrupted mind
You're either trained or forced to conformto this world's corrupted ways
We're sinking into a pit whose ending is death
When our time come then we are no longer falling into that pit
Trained or conform?
Either way you still fall under the pressure of society.

Dripping heart
I don't wanna turn back to the way i used to be
I cling to you like a baby to its mother
My heart drip cuz the blood is overflowing
I don't think i wanna ever let you go
Dripping heart I have
Its not sadness but happiness
That got me smiling till my cheeks hurt
I wanna say alot but its like the words are stuck on the tip of my fingers
Not wanting people to read my words to taste my thoughts
I must leave you with a cliffhanger.....
Untitled ( Words for thought)
to grip
but still slip
Drop on you face and when you get up you're still not new
With your act
next scene
Could have been
The greatest if you had change the script to make
Your act believable but now its too late
You have fallen in a lake
Leaving the cake
With the smiling faces, Bouncy children
If only you could go back then
You would have been able to make a difference
Scrub then rinse
The words that you swallowed to taste the thought
That you bought
From a fool on the market
While he was laying on the carpet
Though he never flew
You knew he blew
That pipe away to get so high
Only to never get to say goodbye
He went so high he got stuck on a thick cloud
Called his stupidity
He was so bound
By a city
Of Foolishness
He was bless
To never come back to a place where you live but can't call a home

No Questions asked juss makin assumptions
you just make assumptions
Really its crazy
But anyways I wonder sometimes but there aint nothing to wonder about
when i know that you are just protecting me like a shell on a turtle
Keep me warm on the inside
