Marcquiese Burrell Poems

This year I've got the courage
to try a little something new
I will give love to another
and to myself will i remain true
...

when I look in the mirror, what do I see?
An image of myself who stares back at me
Seeing everyone of my triumphs and every single moment where I have failed
when you look in the mirror, what do you see?
...

When you imagine me, you see someone who believes
it is only right to give love to thyself.
Someone who honors their own experiences and shares to you love/fury/passion/energy driven life stories
one whom trusts and respects themself
...

The day will come (The day will come)
where we'll officially meet
We'll experience love
together as one and now complete
...

I remember the time when we were close
We've connected almost instantly
It didn't take long to let down my guards
allowing you to win over my heart
...

Why don't you speak to me?
This is getting out of control
I know Somethings wrong
Please help me understand
...

there we are standing together, in this
moment, within this hour,
it's just you and I
God has created me for you to love
...

when we fell in love
first and foremost
I felt nothing could ever compare
to the romance that you and I would share
...

I frozed in shock at the news i'd receieve
It was still so very hard to even believe
I'd talk with you from time to time
Life before seemed so unkind
...

despite the circumstances in life, of all the things, I regret the day I met you
If only I knew
of the absence of love in your heart
I'd soon find myself in an empty place
...
