Another poem to share written by me and Little Charmer. I hope you enjoy.
Do you really believe
Your own bullshit
Look yourself in the mirror
Tell me
Your face doesn’t tell
A different story
Tag: truth
No Need to Argue
You say you
Can handle it
But that’s not
What you do
I saw tears in your eyes
Drowning in sadness
But you are too stubborn
to admit you are shit at this
I don’t think
I’m the one
Who doesn’t
Have a clue
You put on a brave face
Thinking I didn’t notice
Let’s be done pretending
Breaking up didn’t cut both ways
*This is one of the collaboration pieces I did with Little Charmer. I have always been inspired by her originality, writing with her has been way cool 😎. If you have not experienced her wonderful work, check out her blog Ramblings of A Fragile Mind.

A Heart of Emerald
RoBIN gave me this prompt unintentionally.
God has given her a heart of emerald
She became the purveyor of love and hope
People wallow in despair
She sees through the fog
carries hope in darkness
speaks the future and truths
Why
she fell in love with
the same type of men
whom
over promised
and
under delivered
they promised forever
but half way
they gave in to
loneliness
temptation
and
greed
she fell in love with
the same type of men
not once
not twice
but trice
she can’t help to think
what is wrong with her
is she
so blind
so dull
so inconceivable
chose to see
the good in people
is not a ticket
for abuse
pursuit
the simple things
in life
surely is not
foolish
The light
Yesterday and further away
I heard the blame
I grew anxious
Today I hear the accusation
I grow angry
Maybe today
I am no longer the she
who was in denial of
being treated disrespectfully
and
accused with contempt
Maybe today
The veil falls off
and
I see the truth
for the first time
so
the righteous anger
rises in me
and
I am no longer afraid
