Yoan Konkobo Poems

You have a knife to your back
And a gun to your head
Its time to reconsider
The ones you call friends
...

I feel like i'm drifting farther apart from society
The question I ask myself
Is this really me?
Is this who I've become?
...

A deep sense of urgency arises
As my emotions give way
To the demons suppressed within me
Whilst my thoughts are thrown into disarray
...

Money and Power
That's every broke man's dream
I may not be rich or poor but somewhere in between
I have everything I need but I yearn for more
...

Surround yourself by those who challenge you to be a better person each and everyday. Don't let the snakes too close, but always know where they're lurking. With that being said let's go...

For most it's a sore topic
Blissful ignorance may not be the solution
...

What is this feeling?
None of which I've felt before
I've lost all sensuousness and common sense
Have I become empty?
...

I am often times led astray
By this voice inside my mind
Another one is in there with it
But this one speaks a quieter rhyme
...

Have you ever loved someone so much
That you'd give it all up
Just to see them smile
Just to see them laugh
...

Troublesome thoughts
Cloud my head
An ocean full of worry
Drowns me
...

My words stuck in my throat
I'm speechless
I think I'm falling in love
It's no secret
...
