Drawn To U

You
I believe I was drawn to you
The way I think
The way you feel
They way we both feel
It created a vision in my mind
Something more that couldn't be expressed
On a plane paper and blue lines
Turned from a poetic composition to a sketch
That I drew really quickly, not wasting time
Not missing a detail illustrating
Your hair, nose, cheeks, eyes and lips
Even illustrating your eyes when you squint
Embracing the feeling and drawing everything that I sense
Drawing you giving you all my self
Wondering if love should make sense
I pencil you in Trusting it won't be the wrong decision
Every detail has a significant meaning
And scared to have high expectations of you and have to erase
I pencil you in; I only have an idea of you
An interest I feel in my heart
That I feel I can trust you; I draw the sketch to a close
Completeing it and realizing you are a work of art
I seize the moment of this precise feeling
Knowing that art shows me that there is some truth
That it can cause a heart some healing
The sketch is complete and move on to the final drawing
I draw you with more patience taking my time
Not rushing into anything because this masterpiece is the truth this time
No distractions all concentration, no errors
But I do have my eraser close by, hesitant of giving my whole heart away
Trust is the main issue
you being strong for me I know that feeling should be gone one day
Bringing your face out, and your expressions
Turning the drawing into a painting that I could put on canvas
Through vivid colors and creativity that could speak its own lectures
Im drawn to you, developing a powerful feeling even a likeness
Beginning to paint I recreate you that's felt in my heart and mind
Painting what I see, what I feel, what I want,
Through this poem that I verbalize
I hope the audience can imagine this image of you
This metaphor of you being my masterpiece
This canvas talks on its own, your portrait is complete and not blinded
I wonder if you know who You are and if you know your a showpiece
I painted you on canvas so now I toss the eraser
The audience feels what I feel they are my witness
Is your picture on my canvas, the work of art that sits in for of us?
This is my way of telling you that my heart is ready and Im
Fearless

All Because

Woke up like 8am this morning
Had to get ready for this wack, however
helpful college program. Completed some more of
those college essays. Spent time with
the killas Deonah, Pat, Ciara, and Chanae.
The program went all right, but couldn't wait to get back to
the casa and enjoy the chocolate cake that my little brother
made the night before. I def got into that. Recieved texts
about a party tonight. Comtemplating whether i should go
or not. Reasons

1). Have to find something to wear(choosin the right jiggy
will take some time).
2). Who will be there not tyna be @ a wack party
3). If the party isn't wack and is crazy gotta remember to stay
humble .
4). Who is going to go with me(what am i talking bout i know
they going).
5). College open house Tomorrow early in the morning because
I know I am not going to wake up.


Not many reasons right.I will figure it out though.
Not really desprate to go, but my killa wants
to be in there in I don't want to let her go by herself
since i did all the other times. But see im thinking of you.

U R your Mothers Daughter

I had this 2 myself the bottling up wasn't doing anything for me

Things are going so weird. changing as my life goes on.

MoM n I used to best friends, I can probably say its still that way

but its a friendship that has changed dramatically. We fuss at each other a lot. I try not to

say much but I'm am a very argumentative person. My dad

gets in it and says u r Ur mothers daughter. I guess he

is referring to that we are the same person. My mom and myself will

not admit that might be true. I can say we are both stubborn

and just dont like to talk about them. Now i feel like I HAVE 2.

I'm just counting the days until I'm out of the house. College is what I'm looking towards

by myself and on my own. Mom, I still love her she is my friend, but

things are different then before and

confused on how we could deal with them. My dad says to much of the same person

that's why we bang heads. It sounds like sometimes she doesn't really want me there. Probably just saying that because she wants to hurt me.

"Go live with ur grandmother or something she could use your help."

But if I'm just like her and if she realized that like my Pops did. She would no that I don't hurt easily. I'm strong like her feeding off of the hard times and dramatic situations.

i RESPOND WITH

" they don't have hockey n Philly"

I did go kinda hard with that, I no her heart now hurts. I will admit i was roofless with that 1. She acts like we me and my sis dont care that she came to like 3 hockey games, 2 b ball games, no track meets my going on 4 years of high school. Yea we care that's what we love its our life she responds with

"Yall can careless U NO IT DIDN'T MATTER and laughs t off."

she doesn't realize that it did. We want the people

we love to be apart of everything we love.I hope she doesn't realize that when it's to late.

So i apologize for the hurtful things i say , I love you

your still my best friend. I know things wil get better when we realize

we are the same person if we like it or not. Things will change.

Art Thoroughly

I began with a Sketch, I draw your really quickly

Not looking for perfection

I sense your feelings and thoughts and began to illustrate

A brief light artistic signifcant composition

Creating your masterpiece without a mistake

I draw you giving you all of myself

Hoping it won't be the wrong decision and have to erase

I pencil you in I only have a idea of you only a interest I feel in my heart

However, as I continue I discover more about you

I draw the sketch to a close, finding out u have turned into a work of art

With the sketch almost complete, I seize the mood of this precise feeling

Capturing the frame of mind, that causes a heart some healing

Sketch is complete and move on to the final drawing

I draw you with more patience taking my time

No distractions all concentration ahead, no errors

Bringing out your face, your expressions. I emphasis no errors

Using the drawing as if I could turn it into a painting on canvas

Through its colors and creativity that could speak its own lectures

Beginning to paint, I recreate you that's felt in my heart and thought about in my mind

Painting what I see, what I feel, what I want.

The canvas talks on its own, your portrait is finished, not blinded

Is your portrait there on my canvas, the work of art that sits in front of us?

Is it you that I painted, that's could be sold at a art gallery

And that could push an affectionate bonus

Is it u that I painted so thoroughly?

Thunder

New Poem: I wrote on a day of a
storm. Ideas came to mind. Writing was the next
thing i saw myself doing. Enjoy!


The relief of energy, the burden that I hold
The sudden release of energy
The burden has dwindled, Love is here that I with hold
I do not realize what this feeling is, It questions me
The rumbling and the loud noise I feel inside
It's the amount of affection greater than expression
A flash of light that triggers something
Thinking can't be done, wondering is not an option
It's here, I want it here to stay
Like any other type of weather
I would hate this love to by pass my way
It could take a alternative passage
Around the world to the next state
It could demolish everything in its path
But his love is manifested of strong winds that you can't begin to rate
The storm could be accompained by rain, sleet, or snow,
It's summer, so it won't thunder any of those
Love is like a thunder storm
The energy we have co exist together, we feel the same thing
Its a thunder storm, no experssion it's everything and more
