DeAire Taylor Poems

If our love was a rose it would be beautiful courageous and strong like my heart that beats for you
Our love is like a romeo and juliet story
But just like our love for each other
We will never die at least not alone
...

Its a shame
Every day you come to me after you and your boyfriend had a fight
You always ask me
Why does he do this to me?
...

I'm missing a heart because it was taken the day that you left this world
Missing the way your hair twirled into curls
Missing the laugh you had because it made me smile
Also the way you missed me cause we ain't talked in a while
...

Now you left me for a girl
And made my world turn in a whirl
When I think of you I start to hate myself
Because now you're like a drug
...

As I open my eyes for the last time I think of you and us
And what we used to be
We were once together
We went from a small fling to a big love connection
...

Black or white?
Why should it matter?
Why should you judge me on my skin and not my character?
Because I'm darker than you, should I really be last?
...

You better back away from me
All of the things that you did to me
Are unspeakable
Inexcusable
...

It's been a year
Since the murder
One year
Since I lost you
...

What are you doing?
Why are you like this?
You love me one second and hate me the next
You hug me then push me away
...

Where I've been is not a happy one
I've been called many names before
Bisexual, Negro, ignorant, ugly, two-faced, crazy
Well, let me ask you something
...
