Excitement
Though I have been writing frequently, none of my poems have been post-worthy recently. This poem that I wrote the other day, somehow stood out to me. It just appeared out of nowhere. Let me know what you think:) Excitement Is like a tangerine Orange zest grating against the Bitterness of the Gyrating words thatContinue reading “Excitement”
Starting Over;

So This is What Happens-
When you spend money like mangoes on trees When you clone the fruit of happiness To conquer Depression’s deathless beasts’
Till It Was Too Late-
I once thought his gaze Was unafraid Bold and brazen Breaking waves I was completely blind To his ebony eyes How did I not realize the lies That were tucked deep into the ether Of those two I- rises Still, you would lure me in with the silent kisses The tsk of your lips againstContinue reading “Till It Was Too Late-“
Day and Night
Note: this poem is inspired by “The Notebook” by Nicholas Sparks. I typically don’t enjoy reading romance novels, but certain sections of text were especially profound and beautiful. It would be impossible for me not to write a poem about it! She is a stranger caged in the body Of a woman Her frail armsContinue reading “Day and Night”
