		<title>Epilogue To An Affair</title>
		<description>Epilogue To An Affair

We tried to not take it there
take two steps back
inhale the air

Pause.

This is the Epilogue to an Affair.
Not a fairytale story
no happy ending
just the results of lust
and infidelity blending.
There is no rescinding.
Let’s take it back to the beginning...

We tried to not take it there
take two steps back

One Sided

Holdin em Back
Before they stream down my face
How did I get to this place
This lopsided space
Of unsurety 

Loving you has made me weak
I cant think
until I hear you speak
to start my day
to end my night
I fight with urges
surges of need

stifling resistance
resentment builds
and fills the greed
to have you wrapped up
next ...</description>

		<title>An Ode To A Father&#8230;</title>
		<description>An Ode To A Father...




I used to love em

but because of em

my patience is zero

too tired of waiting

for my hero

to walk through those doors

I just dont give a f*** anymore

I abhor liars

that falsely inspire

little girls

that one day

daddy's coming home

finally facing it alone

from pre-teen to all grown

mad at my mom

for the ...</description>

		<title>A Woman Scorn</title>
		<description>A Woman Scorn

Ironically
Words just sound
Like words to me
Seems absurd
But I'm not feeling
Very poetic
What once was so magnetic
I now regret it
I'm simply trying
Just to forget it
Let it burn
Take a breath
And let it breathe
like Beyonce's "RESENTMENT"
"I've been crying for too long
What did you do to me"
You lied
You cheat
You're no better than the ...</description>

		<title>Marionette</title>
		<description>Marionette

I was at mercy to his touch
he pulled me this way and such
he became my crutch
I hated that I loved him


*ahem*


liked him this much
he made me blush
in terra cotta, Persian red
I could barely hear the words he said
Instead I play pretend girlfriend
give him all the benefits
and none of the consequence
it ...</description>

		<title>Love Is&#8230;.. (Poem Challenge)</title>
		<description>Love is.....

More than a four letter word
it is a verb
its how you act
its what you do
its saying sorry just because....
Baby I heart you

Love is throwing away like
and replacing it with the real
not being afraid of what you feel
Love is waiting on "Him"
to seal the deal
it is never wanting 
to say ...</description>

		<title>Restitution, Reparation, and Other &#8220;R&#8221; Words</title>
		<description>Restitution, Reparation, and Other "R" Words

 
Lets call it Restitution
a dissolution to the Resentment
I feel inside
for all the times you lied
for all the nights I cried
and questioned why
you Realize
after you did
what you did
you gave me permission
to go and f**K him
(Oh yes you did)
and from there
Reparation has begun
Its not any fun
Huh?
Cause ...</description>

		<title>I. Am.</title>
		<description>I. AM.


I am
The sun 
That glides across
Your face
When you wake
I am the space
Between daylight
And nightfall
I am probable cause
I am all 
That you dream
And when it seems
You are on the wrong path
I am there 
To take your hand
I am 
The reason
You are here
And not there
Even when its not fair
I am 
Everywhere
I ...</description>

Hurry Up and.........WAIT    

 
All of our lives
we've been taught
to wait
that good things come 
to those 
who....... 
WAIT...
wait til nightfall
wait til morning rises
wait for the reveal
beneath the disguises
wait til it warms
wait til it gets cold
wait when your young
wait til you get old
wait for sex
wait for love
wait til ...</description>

		<title>Anomalies</title>
		<description>Anomalies

Tiny discrepancies
or imperfections
whether clandestine
or overt
they anoint us diverse
or otherwise perfectly

UNIQUE

mapping our originality
He loves me
and all of my idiosyncrasies
even down to my ugly feet
the fact that I never shut up
but I know when NOT to speak
the way my accent falls somewhere between
A Jewish-New-Yorker
and a valley girl
from the beach
He knows that I
laugh ...</description>
