A Tear

 A TEAR MAY DROP 

A tear may drop from my eyes and land on my thighs

In a moment of exhaustion i may let out a sigh

Overwhelmed but yet my head remains high

stress of it all levitate me like  wings when I try

That’s how i remained determined to fly

My goals must reach past the sky

Aim farther each time I fall the faster i climb

Carrying new tools the weight heavier each time

Thanking God for all the blessings in line

The ones i have received motivates my mind

Faith is the strength that helps my body survive

My heart beat is an alarm for my soul to remind

That there’s a purpose i was given life

So even if i hit snooze i know after neutral is drive

I can never park or go backwards to thrive

I can only slow down or shift forward to incline

I was put here for a reason I won’t stop til I know why

KEEPING HER SCORE

Normal in her relation is quickly sinking ship,

She’s Starring into the mirror wiping another bloody lip,

Wondering if this is honestly the last time she will be hit,

How many more times will she have to call in sick?

Every man that she’s ever chosen turned out to be an abusive pick,

He says that he loves her and showers her with gifts,

All these material things to justify his every hit,

The ring on her finger says that she must stay,

The kids don’t deserve her family broken away,

Her mother took the abuse so she’s thinking she should do the same,

Besides, she provoked him. It’s only right she wears the blame,

One day it will get better, for her He will change,

she’ll just buy extra makeup to conceal all of his shame,

Her friends don’t understand they’re just judging him by all her pain,

They only see his flaws but are never there after the rain,

Yes the ball is heavy but the lost girl inside her loves wearing his chains,

MADRE’S CORD

MADRE’S

CORD

They cut the cord when you gave me life

I saw you my angel upon opening my eyes

Not knowing your beauty would ignite my sight

You guided me out of darkness into light

Inside your arms I felt no fright

The sound of your heartbeat calmed me at night

Always taught me wrong from right

My Santa, hero, tooth fairy and rescuer of my cries

You Never gave up when loose ends were tight

My existence motivated your continuance to fight

There are no words to reimburse your price

Of all the things you so humbly sacrificed

Till this day you put yourself behind

Selfless you give me first place in line

You are what I call one of a kind

Nobody like you I’ll never find

Yes we may argue fuss and fight

But I thank God for every minute of our time

And the fact that he he chose you to be mines

The daughter of a mother who is always by my side

She helps me to reach goals above my height

always there to catch me when falling mid flight

My love for you reaches the sky

Feelings I struggle to display I write

My actions opposite of the emotions I hide

Just know my love for you is no lie

Mom I love you with all my might

Every cell, breath, and bone connects to your bloodline

Your perception is that I leave you behind

But reality is you stay on my mind

I battle with myself when your in need and I can’t provide

Obstacles turn my attempts into I tried

Frustrated I can’t give you what you desire

And until I can I’ll never retire

Just hold my hand through this fire

Blessings will rain in the near hour

Have faith in the many showers

Thank you for turning my strength into power

And watering faith upon my weakest flowers

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO ALL!!
