Dionne K. Kelly Poems
let me introduce you to this stranger
not a stranger to me because that stranger is me
the me nobody knows
pretending to be happy when all I really want to do is cry
...
ur smile is a lil' 2 wide
an' my neck hurts when i look up at u
but these feelings 4 u i cain't hide
ur jokes aren't really that funny
...
Here I sit with the bottle of pills in my hand;
Thinking to myself, do I want to leave this land?
A part of me answers yes, the other no.
The last bringing with it questions whose answers I do not know.
...
u pushed me away
pushed me aside
and for a while all i did was cry
lately i hear u've moved on 2 someone new

Afraid. We’re all afraid of something or someone. Even with all of our differences…different things seen…different things done…there is one thing we all have in common…FEAR. Not fear of spiders bees accidents or even death. No the fear we share is one on a much deeper level…we all fear the TRUTH…
So caught up in the scandals…the video games…the stock market…the internet…the daytime TV dramas…who’s whose baby mamas…We let the media tell us what is TRUTH…what is right. With the politicians…athletes…armed services…entertainers telling our children what to fight for.

Serenely almost too soft to be heard
Comes a sound that can not be described as words
Unexpectedly the tiny sound
Becomes exuberant and proud
...
Faces of happiness
Faces of madness
Faces full of pride
Faces wondering where to hide
...
My head still hurts
The medicine didn't help
And even in a room full of people
I feel as if I'm by myself

The Best Poem Of Dionne K. Kelly
The Me Nobody Knows
let me introduce you to this stranger
not a stranger to me because that stranger is me
the me nobody knows
pretending to be happy when all I really want to do is cry
the me nobody knows
smiling on the outside when really I'm just about ready to die
that stranger is standing in front of me
every time I look in the mirror
I see someone consumed by fear or
is it that I'm consumed by reality
trying oh so hard to be who and what everyone else wants me to be
I seem to have lost track lost control of everything I'm supposed to be
let me introduce you to this stranger you might have met
do you understand what I'm saying yet
who am I really can you guess
hi nice to meet you hello how do you do
not who you thought I was am I
bet you never thought you'd see me cry
but this is me
the REAL me
this is how I am when no one else is around
here I am when I get the chance to be myself and break down
it's unbelievable to me how many of you I've fooled
over your eyes I'm the one who's pulled the wool
but now it's time for me to be legit and be straight
let go of some of the anger some of the hate
so again I say let me introduce you to this stranger
hi nice to meet you hello how do you do
dig deep and you might just find that this stranger is sometimes also you
let me introduce you to this stranger
not a stranger to me because that stranger is me
the me nobody knows
pretending to be happy when all I really want to do is cry
the me nobody knows
smiling on the outside when really I'm just about ready to die
hi nice to meet you hello how do you do
dig deep and you might just find that this stranger is sometimes also you
(1999)
