Marcquiese Burrell Poems

Maybe, I should walk right out the door
Sometimes I'm not ever really even sure
A new day dawns and there's a new issue
When I only want no one other than you
...

An open book,
you study this,
I've made you look
You taking notice
...

This isn't no phase
It ceases to amaze
There is no war or conflict
Melanin so rich with skin so smooth
...

Where is the love?
What has happened to mankind?
The action defines terror in these times
I hear people keep saying, 'black lives matter'
...

I'm not changing, Not the way you want me
I'm not changing, I'll stay as I should be
I won't follow the program
So just take me as I am
...

When I think of love
I think of a heart expanding
Expanding so wide that it takes the good with the bad
and that's what comes when you feel something strong
...

That's the first steps to take
when two hearts travel a road to break
the chains are loosened
no longer bound
...

Inside your mind there's a world of possibility
Every sweet rhythm flows in a perfect melody
the future is here
Overcome the nightmare, it will disappear
...

I ain't what you think
Letting this ship sink
if you looking for some honey
i'm colder than the ice baby
...

I WANNA BE FREE
FREE FROM YOU BABY

SO TIRED OF CRYING
...
