The Girl In The Neighborhood.



And even though I know it's going to take you a lifetime to read this, 
I write this with the betterment of hope.
I see how you advance levels, 
I guess that's what comes with age.
Feels like a movie, watching how the next phase surfaces on different platforms.

From a regular kid in the neighbourhood,
To the girl he was always shy of taking to in the neighbourhood,
Who has also got your interest at heart.
More like your secret fan that has always wanted to see you and every other kid in the neighbourhood successful in all that we do.

Different cliques, 
Probably made it difficult to strike the perfect conversation back in Convent.
And I saw how saucy your friends were and like the saying, 
"show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are", 
Thought you were also saucy. 
Well you seem like you are with that piss off sign you have on your forehead.
Remember back in Convent, 
When one of the sisters punished literally the big guns in the school and said we should all pick stones from one point of the school to another point.
Seeing you carry those stones was sickening, when fantasy rolls in.

You're beautiful with all these make up you got on these days, 
But you're beyond beautiful when you have far less than what you have on your face these days.
Fully elope into that Wonder Woman you foresee yourself as,
Let nothing hold or slow you down.
As a Gemini, 
One of our biggest trait is our ability to be unpredictable.

See this coming from a man on a path to better things, 
Eloping into something more than a Clark Kent,
To a Wonder Woman you are becoming.
Y.M.E.

The girl in the neighbourhood.

Heaven's Angel

Countless dreams of heaven, I’ve had but never get to see the big picture in motion. She oozes of heritage that gives life, One that gives life to the dying and eternity to the living.
She is of Selah, worthy to behold, You’re not of human that crown queen, But, Of goddess that make gods.
I wonder what she thinks of me? I’m having not to jump the gun and move faster than my shadow. I doubt she even knows this? I doubt she even knows what she’s worth? Does she have the problem of the coloured girl? How do you define a black woman’s worthiness to herself? Perhaps I’m the missing piece for her realisation. I often say this but this time I feel it different.
I hope she knows I want someone to talk to and listens, As it goes vice-versa, making for deep-level interactions. What is biology without chemistry? I crave telepathy interactions, I’m ready to risk it all again to have this. What is a bond without elasticity? And if I yet again lose myself, I’d live with the fulfilment of my pursuit of happiness.

Problem Of The Coloured Girl

Not once, not twice, Have I seen the coloured girl feel unappreciated or unworthy? Her traits and qualities have been overlooked, So she looks for things that don't need be. Sometimes I can't help but label them the cause of their problems, But yet again, I can't help but be the pillar to lean on.
Just the other day I told my friend how beautiful she looks, And she responded with; "Lool, thanks but not me". Wholeheartedly, that shit broke my heart as I stood on convincing grounds so she sees my point view, Sadly my efforts were rebuffed.
Who you are? I bet you don't even know. Where you are? I'm definite you don't know. Where you're going? It's hard for you to even know, Because you got the problem of being beautifully unworthy.
How beautiful you are?  You don't even know, You rather hang on to the standards of magazines and playboys without knowing you're playing yourself. Giving you reasons why you should hate this and embrace that, In the process making y…

Keep The Family Close.

Sometimes it takes death to occur before we realise we should keep the family close, As a matter of fact, keep the family much closer. Death is only a reminder it would be us someday, hence our work here is limited. Breathe taking away in what seems like a moment, Not of silence but of agony.
When one of your aunts that genuinely loved you as a son dies, Though I was distant, still was a relation that assumed his role. How do you console your cousins to the thought they'll never see their mum? How do you tell your dad to pull himself together over the loss of his sister? I guess you'd probably live with the guilt of holding a childish grudge against her, But knowing you so well, I'm sure you'd barely flinch at that thought. When bitterness is soaked in thy heart, The sweet things of life become far fetched. Out of the heart, the mouth speaks.
And though life's innocence was taken away even before you knew what it meant, By someone deemed to be a superhero, But all villains don'…
