Racquel Davis Poems

NO IT’S NOT STRONG ENOUGH
I AM GLAD I WANT THIS SO CALLED LOVE TO BE DEAD
I HATE THE GIRL FROM THE CLUB NOT BECAUSE OF HER
BUT BECAUSE OF YOU I HATE YOU TOO
...

What can I fix
What is wrong
Why do people thrive on their imperfections
Why can't we just love what we see
...

I grew up in a house of payne
Most of the time we didn't have anything to eat
Abusive mean and drug addict mother
No father around and big brother missing
...

You will always be around
and in my heart I know it's true
I mean it's been awhile
and still you think of me
...

Why couldn't I see
that that man was in love wit me
What did I do to him that was so bad
Why would I always get so mad
...

America, America you don't know me,
But dear America I know you.
I see you in the faces of young people,
I watch you sleep in your crib at night.
