Marcquiese Burrell Poems

Candle, burnin' out, unsettled
struck by the thorn of a red rose
like a animal with the need to roam
in search of something, something to satisfy the hunger
...

I see you are the shhh
But I ain't playing second fiddle
And I got that fire, sizzlin' hot,
flame never fizzles
...

I've been thinking we ain't fine
it weighs heavy on my mind
like how we got here
where you thought I crossed the line
...

What I look like is more important than what I do
If I were to get raped would it be my fault too?
so I can't object to being a sex object
no I won't tolerate the blatant disrespect
...

when I first met you
I wasn't looking for anything too serious
I wasn't looking for anything but a friend
someone to hang with and talk to time to time
...

yeah... when I seen you, i wanted you in my life
but you were so guarded and didn't treat me right
Tried to thaw your heart, it's just as cold as ice
...

so she told you she's having your baby
but that she really isn't too sure
don't want to grow fast and mature
what she decided was done very poor-ly
...

I know I turned you cold
just hearing my confession
have really hurt you so
just seeing the expression
...

Remembered those times when I cried tears
Listening to the radio and that one song would play
and the words reflected what I felt on the inside
That's the road I'd go down, baby, i'm missing you
...

I don't know
how i'm suppose to feel
when you commited murder
you would shoot to kill
...
