PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

If i could smile a little more

and frown a little less

would it be enough to erase the mess

that has been left in these city streets

that we wait to be swept?

what is it that needs to be done

for us to stop killing each other and become one

what can we do, if not ,what can i do

to be able to stop receiving these phone calls that lead to streaming oceans left from my tears.

what can i do to make my fallen angels reappear

matter fact what can i do to erase the fears

from my loved ones faces, when they dwell on whether or not tomorrow they'll be here.

since  when was it up to a bullet to determine our fates?

since when was it cool to give up on faith.

when was it up to someone else to say wether or not we will survive another day?

when did it become popular to hate, abuse or even slay?

i must have been lost in  transition cause i dont recall when peace was only for reminiscing

i dont recall when it became wack to leave home and want to peacefully make it back.

so what can i give to heal the broken hearts of so many others coping with being the victims of being alone

what can i say to them, that will soothe their ears from hearing someone wont be making it  home.

what can i do to let them know that they are not the only victim to death

hmmmmm,what can I possibly DO to let them know that they're not by themself.

what am i capable of doing, when a life is taken before it was time.

what corrections can i make in a world that is so adolescent that they would rather watch the human population become extint before things get right?

its so sad to know that adversity

could possibly be

tomorrow's reality.

what cd should i be featured on so that i can be heard

what new language should i create to pass on my words

cause no one cares.

well atleast not until it happens to them, that's when

everyone stops and remembers that violence has been here since society began.

way back when The America's  was founded

back when run away slaves were hounded.

way before fashion was the only thing on our minds

way before important news headlines, were who carries the sickest lines when they rhyme.

IM SO TIRED of what's going on in the world

like E.T. i want to "phone home".

but all i got is this globe and my finger aint touch nothing that i can call a home.

They say tomorrow aint always promised but an hour an guaranteed either.

maybe your weak minds have been misguided when 2pac layed the track is there "a heaven for a G"

maybe you thought that killing would get you close with G.O.D.

Man what can i do to make this world a better place to raise kids

what can i do to take back all crimes evil's ever did

if i could smile a little more

and frown a little less  WOULD it be enough to erase the mess

that has been left in these city streets

that we wait to be swept?

AND EVEN if the answer is yes,

we can do so much till the wind blows it back

but still regardless of universal crime facts

ill be an example of love through my family and whom i call my enemy

because we never know who death's after next

so ill be inhaling and exhaling peace until my very last breath









R.I.P.

  "In a separate shooting in Brooklyn earlier Monday night, the police said a 19-year-old man was found fatally shot in the head. The victim, whose name was not released because relatives had not been notified, was found in the back of a dark sedan at 595 East 34th Street in East Flatbush about 6:40 p.m."  11/17/08
