To the creepy, crawly swine
A bug with the long feet.
Who marched about like tall ants,
And roamed about vicariously.
...
A Mother whispers love
With the weeping of joyful praise
As her silence echoes quietly
And time remains still
...
I realized that I am truly in love
You're a genuine Angel sent to me from above
I gotta have you back into my life
You're the only thing that makes it feel right
...
Remember me, when we first met
Remember how you touched me
How you made love to me
Remember, how you promised me
To always be there for me
...
You made me feel beautiful
Our love is so pure and deep
Our emotional connection is so strong
Baby you complete me
...
Love, love is not selfish or jealous
It comes from the heart
And so do these words
So listen as I tell this
...
If it's not what it's supposed to be then explain this
Love came unexpectedly, no explanation
If this shit ain't real, then what does this all mean
If we feel the same, it's where our hearts should be
...
Through broken dreams
I found my way
Powder faces hiding pain
Go day by day life tied up in
...
I admire everything you are
You and I have come so far
Easily I fell in love with your touch
Love gazing into your eyes so much
...
It's seems so long without you
When I think of what love could've been
Even though were not together
Know your heart I treasure
...
State of mind
Contrary to what is said
A delusional hatred
To be mistaken for love
...
Falling in love is easy
Because I was not alone
You taught me how
To fall in love
...
I woke up at 10 a.m.
I looked at the time
And turned over
Just to go back to sleep again
...
Young beautiful black boy
Gifted black boy
Innocent black boy
...
Sometimes I wonder
Just like
Will there ever come a time
For us to be together
...
Brown skin you are beautiful in every way
With the way you carry yourself
Your perfect in every way
Brown skin your color is more precious
...

Faces
I am the voice
No one hears
No one listens
My voice carries
In the wind
But no one cares anymore
I feel rejected
I'm not corporate America
I'm not wealthy
I'm not the majority
So I don't matter
I'm the transgendered
I'm the poor
I'm the uneducated
I'm the minority
I'm the immigrant
I'm the young woman
Whose voice is worthy
We once dreamed of a world
We once had
The land of the free
Free and equal for every race
Where everyone had a chance-at prosperity
My wish to humanity
Is that light shines once more
Before the candle wick burns out
And then darkness prevails
And we lose sight of our purpose
