Florence Badejo Poems

It's sad to watch your chance expire
I've waited so long and now I'm too late
It hurts when I think about it
I've lost what I've been dreaming of
...

If I could rule the world I would love to see the people drown.
If they all burned in hell they would only scream for sound.
It would be quite a sight to watch them burn to death.
All the ones who hurt me just to waste another breath.
...

I continue to hurt and I don't want to
But now I even dream of her with you
I'm a failure at life with no consolation
I'm worthless and foolish with little to do
...

It's weird how things can happen so suddenly.
One minute your looking at the clouds,
The next your trying to get off the ground.
I see myself in the clouds,
...

I didn't tell you and didn't need to
You already had an idea
I know how you see me yet it doesn't hurt
I'll be anything for you
...

Me? What have I done?
All I ever do is try.
Why must you yell at me?
Are you mad that I won't die?
...

Tell me right now what I have done wrong
Since that is what seems you believe in so strong.
Have I beat you and hurt you upon the floor?
Slapped you and smacked you to speak no more?
...

When I am mad I'm just sad with anger
I feel as if my life has been left on a hanger
I stay at home with no where to go
And I feel lost wandering to and fro
...

I hate being singled out
And some one put my friends in doubt
And my anger disperses at wrong times
But all I can do is rhyme
...

The Lord knows who didn't do it and knows who did
But for the one that did it may God forbid
That when they would confess
That there would be no stress
...
