Jezebel

I was used and abused
I still have open wounds
No mother to nurse me
My heart is full my tongue is dreadful
Seeking attention, all Friends secrets I will mention

I relish in animosity, I hate prosperity
Quickly I become your worst enemy
Easily I am taken over by jealousy
Lies are the truth, I am scarred
No female is worthy to be loved better than me

I repeat things I was not told
My lips are cold
My name is deceit
I am not discreet
I embrace the serpent
I would rather revenge than repent

Love Directed

He is a ventriloquist
He tells me what to say
He tells me what to wear
I stand in fear when he is near

My life is a movie
He is the director
I am the actor, I am no star character
I smile on his winks
I quiver when he blinks

He laughs and I echo
His eyes are like a sparrow
He warns me without looking
I am scared but I am smitten

He never uses his fist
My love is a bliss
He always protects me
I am his property
I play the part
He will always have my heart
Even if its ripped apart

Pretty Dark


I have pretty toes and pretty feet

I have pretty skin and pretty teeth

To my self I am sweet

But when I walk down the street

The calls go out to the brown girl beside me

Quarter White, Half Chinese, so that makes her elite


What about me? Am I not of royalty?

Descedant of queens, daughter of kings

My skin might be dark, but I am worthy

To change my complexion is not an option

So when I see you from a distance

I remind my self that I am whole not a fraction

Name of Shame

Clutching your purse by your side
I look you in your eye
You look away as if you are shy
Many times I am too proud to beg
So I loot your homes instead

I am just like you but you are fed
I don't even have a bed
Life is strife and love is strain
I wish I could move away from this pain

I have no proof of birth
But still I defend my life on earth
You don't call me by my name
Thief and robber, is that the same?
I m just like you, I have shame
Please, when you see me again ask me my name
