Shawanda Polk Poems

I'm tired of people messing with me
I'm tired of people treating me wrong
I'm tired of people saying I stank
I'm tired of people remembering the past
...

I know you was a kind of friend
Who I can depend on
We can laugh and crack jokes
While we sit back and relax
...

There will not ever be anyone like me
There will be follows of me
But I'm the one and only me
Because I am unique
...

Gangs are no good
There are so many gangs
I just don't know what to do
At the corner
...

Stop self destructing yourself
Stop abusing yourself with drugs
Stop compromise yourself
Stop giving up on yourself
...

Why do people always talking about other people?

Why do people want everything their way?
...

Tall, light skin, and smart
I never want to be apart
We may have our up and down
But you always turn my frown upside down
...

I haven't seen you in a long time
Do you miss me?
I miss you
I was so happy
...

A 16-year old girl has fell in love
because the man above
has place him in her life
to fuss and fight
...

I rather be single before I let a BOY beat me
I rather be single before I fall in love
with a BOY that doesn't love me
I rather be single then playing myself like a fool
...
