  The Truth of It 

  This soil bares secrets  The truth of a land built by black hands  Hope grew in the midst of desperation   Prayers stood when feelings turned silent  The world ignored your plight  The system denied it  Let faith light your fire  Your future is brighter than the sun  The breeze that is strong and free Will…

  Speaking in Riddles

  The truth lies dormant underneath concrete and hidden dreams We talk in riddles Answer in rhymes Smile contorted into broken phrases That leave little to the imagination But everything undone Love always, Ayesha

  Discovering Each Other

  He ran from the truth Found his body clung to spiderwebs Living void of love Call him the walking dead Despite dreams and hopes He lives in pain instead I changed, he changed, we changed But the love remains the same The years we lost Connected to the epiphany we gained We will discover each…

  Tongue Twister: Tidbits

  I love poetry but sometimes I like to stretch my hand a bit and try new things. So I wrote a tongue twister. Hopefully you enjoy it. To talkative to tame tantalizing tidbits Told tenaciously to timid tomcats To talk to timid tomcats Touching things though tight teeth To tell the truth *Repeat 3X fast…
