Behind her smiles hides a story
A story that not known by many
Wearing her best mask is not easy
'cos underneath, her tears are falling
And pain is part of her living

A weakened self can't be able to fly
Because of her anxious mind that liquefy
That makes her stranded in death sea
Drawning in blood sweat and tears
Can't escape from island of her fears


Thoughts are overflowing
She over think about everything
Tired of all the things she's facing
She wonder if it's really worth living

Ain't happy neither sad
Just feelin' it bad
Being not good enough
Only can do is to be tough
And have faith in God
Life is not unfair if everything happen aren't of your will.

Killer. The killer you are stands tall-
The way I love you, how dare you!
It kills- me.
I love you but I am running, you the reaping
shadow in my dreams.
They say blood ties us together, family.
Huh, blood?
That's interesting.

I know you have your struggles,
as we all do at a point in time.
Please please please. Spare me from yours,
as I spare you from mine.

We often live our days
In a deep fryer
What doesn't coat and **** us
Could very well eat us alive

I’m still here
Still standing
Still trying
Falling on my face
Over and over
But I stand back up
I keep going
I’ll get where I need to be
Eventually

she hides who she really is
under pretenses of laughter and joy
when inside
her thoughts spiraling
as she gets colder and colder
quieter and quieter
thinner and thinner
until all that remains is a gaunt shadow
of what they thought she was
she slowly starts to disappear
as sun turns to fallen leaves and fallen leaves to snow
they start to not notice her anymore
start to forget
the one who once brought in so much life
is now just existing, barely living
trying to hold on as
it becomes a struggle just to wake up in the morning
to bring the fork to her mouth
to leave the house
to talk
as she becomes
smaller and smaller
her thoughts withering her away
until there is nothing left
but dust.

avoid risks
and question the existence
of any type of danger

run from warmth
and wonder why
i am tired of the cold

keep myself quiet
and yet choke on the words
i would rather leave unsaid

rip my heart out
to ease the heaviness
of a love i cannot carry

feign disappearing
to avoid facing
the misery of a life unlived

I'm … " WATCHING YOU " … !!!    
Like You … " WATCH ME " … !!!  
    
It's Really NOT COOL …    
To Watch Me Like A THIEF ... !!!?!!!    
    
Now This Story Happened To Me …    
    
I'm In The Post Office Looking In My Pockets …    
Minding My Business But As God Is My Witness … !!!    
    
A White Lady Was YES … " WATCHING ME " …    
A Box To My Right Was … " Unattended " …    
    
This Woman Made A Move ...    
That'll Prove My Point To You ... !!!    
    
She Came Towards The Box …    
Of Course I WASN'T Shocked … !!!    
    
But Then Another Woman …    
Came Back With QUICKER Movement … !!!!!    
    
It Was CLEAR The Box Was HERS … !!!!!    
But Then The First Woman Made The Matter WORSE … !?!    
    
She said,    
    
"You shouldn't leave your things so carelessly !"    
    
At This Point It Was CLEAR That She ...    
Was Referring To ... ME … !!!!!    
    
At This Point I Was … " Cool " …    
    
But Just COULDN'T Refuse … !!!    
To Start To Use My Voice … !!!    
    
I Said To … " Lady Two " …    
    
"I think it's clear, her view,    
she thinks that i'm a villain !    
So, what's a guy to do ?"  
    
THIS WOMAN Then Replied …    
    
"That's not what she implied !"  
    
So This Was When My Time Was Spent …    
EXPLAINING CERTAIN Things To Them … !!!    
    
"What would make you think, that I'm ignorant ?    
Please state you case, and your defence !    
You need to use some, common sense !    
Acts like these may be well meant,  
but may just cause someone offence !"    
    
Both Ladies Then Were CLEARLY TENSE … !!!    
    
Because I Posed … " Certain Questions " …    
    
"Am I a thief, do you believe ?    
A box can ease my poverty,    
or, hold the keys to my being free ?"    
    
Of Course They Used The … " OLD EXCUSE " … !!!  
    
"Think that way if you want to !    
It's clear my dear, you have no proof !"  
    
I Guess That's True … ???    
    
But … ???    
    
What Would You Do … ?    
If Someone Did These Things To YOU … ?!?    
    
"WATCHING" …. Yes Your EVERY MOVE … !?!    
    
Most People Would Agree With Them …    
And Say ... "It's me, who's got the problem !" ...    
    
I Guess I HAVE … !!!    
    
When People JUDGE The Way I STAND … ?!!!?    
    
It Starts To Touch My Will To CUSS ... !!!!!    
    
"Why you watching me, am I that ugly ?  
Oh sorry, of course, I look scary, and    
clearly some, think i'm a thief !"    
    
This Exemplifies Why … " Society " ...    
Has Got Such … " IMPROPRIETIES " … !!!!!    
It's Hard Enough For Blacks To Steer CLEAR of Police … !!!!!    
    
They're WATCHING Us Waiting To … " Cuff " … !!!    
And Nowadays SHOOT Their … Rather BIG Guns … !!!!!    
    
WITHOUT The NEED of PROOF ...    
To … Make Their Move .… !!?!!    
NOT … ALWAYS True … !!!    
    
SOME Do Their Do Without Abuse …    
But Trust In This It's Only A FEW … !!!!!    
    
Some People Now Are Acting FOUL … !!!    
And Are HOLDING Views That AREN'T  So Cool … !!!    
    
A Man At A Till In … " Sainsbury's " …    
Was NOT SO THRILLED When Seeing ME … !!!!    
    
I Was Standing WAY BACK ….....    
About …….. Eight Feet …….. !!!  
As He Paid His Bill Waiting Patiently …....    
    
He Was Gonna Tap In His …. " Chip and Pin " ….    
But Looked OVER His Shoulder As If I Had Moved Closer ...    
    
He Gave Me THAT LOOK As If I Was A CROOK … !!!!!    
    
Now ONCE AGAIN ...    
Most Would DEFEND This Mans' Movements … !!!    
    
But … Take A Sec … !!!    
Where's Your … " Common Sense " … ?!?    
    
" Chip and Pin " ... ISN'T My Invention … ?!!!?    
This Was Done By Scientists And Governments … !!!!!!    
    
THINK It Through To STEAL From You …    
I'd NEED To Have Some Pretty Good Tools … !!!!!    
    
Your Pin Number May Be … " MISUSED " … !!!!!    
By Those Who Sit In … " Rooms With VIEWS " …    
    
Big Brother's ALWAYS WATCHING YOU ... !!!!!!    
While YOU Seem To Think You NEED TO WATCH ME … ?!?!?    
    
.... THINK About It Chief …. !!!  
    
I Suggest You Use CASH If You Feel Like THAT … !!!    
But I Guess You'd Rather TRUST Your Bank ... ?!?    
    
" Embezzler huh ? " …  
    
I'm NOT THAT MAN " … !!!    
    
Your FOOLISH Fears Are NOT Well Steered … !!!    
WATCH THEM BEFORE Your Bank Account's CLEARED ... !!!    
    
It's Happening NOW And You May FROWN …    
If You FIND That YOU'VE Been CLOWNED ... !!!!!!!!  
    
By Those Who KNOW ...    
How Much You OWN And Where it GOES …  
Highs And Lows Which Goes To Show …    
We CLEARLY HAVE Some Ways To Go … !!!!!!!!!    
    
Before We See Some UNITY …    
    
From The Post Office To Going Shopping …    
It's CLEAR Some People Are INTENT On …    
    
.….. " WATCHING " …...
It's easy to stereotype, instead of focussing on those, in suits and ties, who truly commit the most sinister crimes !

This piece was written to prove that I, am NOT one of those guys, or a criminal type !!!
